Club stated the AFL deal is a different event. And noted that the drink package included wines from our sponser Penfolds ( a couple of granges might ease the tension) anyhow get bitten once and you learn

Unlikely...if not there's always Uncle's stash! 

That's assuming they don't crack in the boot of the Bentleigh on the road trip up.

If it were a Bentley I'm sure the shiraz would be well packed.  Can't risk a good shiraz!!

Benefit of doubt to DD:  'Bentleigh' is an auctocorrect problem...

Any news if Oliver will be available?

Has been ruled out already.

Might be back next week. Might not be.

 

The Uncle Bitter convoy has arrived in the fair Hamlet of Burra on route to Alice.

The locals are very excited of course.

I'm currently enjoying a libation at "The Burra" and , I must say the dining facilities are very pleasant (albeit rustic)!

Tx Jaded. We've had some big names out on a consistent basis this year from round one. Hopefully the run of bad luck stops soon.

Most teams have had key players out during the season. We've managed our players OK.

NO bigee.

So cold up here it’s ridiculous and the forecast only gets worse…

 

Open clinic then training session Saturday for those that are here:

For those that want a special experience, head out to Santa Teresa (about an hour drive on road that goes past airport, 50km of dirt but can easily do in a 2wd for a 2.30 pm start at the grass oval there.

Hoping the overall experience provides some nice NoT$NoB$ vignettes (if not vins), Uncle - or any other B$Ters on the trek.

Not braggin’ - just sayin’- I’m about as far from the Alice as you can get- Gallipoli in southern 🇮🇹.

31 degrees here today, dropping to a low of 25 tonight. Your typical Alice weather I would have thought.

So I’ll be tuned in Sunday at 0720h listening and reading!

And ffs if ANB fumbles and it costs us a goal I’ll spew up!

Im doing catch up drinks, so no further communication tonight!

Any perversions to report to NoT$NoB$, UB? Your favourite tipple hard to come by up there? Or, if not, at least compromised by coming from the *shudder* fridge?

OK, so now I’m in Taranto and will follow the game from here. That has to be an omen. Some bloke from the Toigs has that name and he’s goin’ arright.

Just by way of curiosity....anyone have knowledge of how this field plays after so much rain ? 

You might presume it drains quickly ....does it ?

With the amount of booze Uncle's hauling up there (rumours of a road train in tow) i wouldn't count on it Bubs

Is Spargo named sub for this game?

If he is, don't think he's a great choice as his body type and skillet is limited to a certain role. Also even in his usual role his form hasn't been great so there's that too.

Man driving all that way is a great support effort. I hope we win just for that drive alone.

They had an excellent local shiraz at "The Burra" .

Overindulgence in which accounted for my late arrival in Coober Pedy.

Surely it has to be Melky, you want an impact player not a defensive limited skillet ( My new word of the week.... Skillet)

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
