    He seemed to get a few 'Joe the Goose' type goals.

    Have you seen any GC matches this year? His efforts have been deplorable, particularly for a guy so big and athletic.

    Please explain.

    What is a "joe the goose goal?"

    Easy handball over the top to a player unguarded, usually on the goal line. Typically means other players have done the hard work but player in question gets the stat.

    The correct answer is "sorry I got it wrong & Chol has been quite an effective forward for GC"

    Not sure what I got wrong. Just said he kicked 44 goals which is a fact. Heard he hasn’t been as good this year which was widely reported and backed up by the fact he has only kicked 3 goals in 4 games so far.

    Gold Coast marathon

    golf

    noosa + hinterland 

    mooloolaba

    port Douglas 

    cycling

    surfing

    bundy distillery

    bris is rad

    and I haven’t even seen the best bits

     

    Last 3 days in Brissy ...

    Not long and somewhat rose coloured glasses as a visitor but it does have some upside such as...

    > a whole lot less ppl so easier to get into places / parking

    > as a result of above ... less pressure on prices.  Mostly reasonable including parking in the city

    > many seem a bit happier, light hearted and with less traffic on the roads a few less angry folk it seems

    > Brissy river's a winner but with so many high rises coming up.... get up quick if you want a view or be prepared to search hard for one that does.

    Overall it has a feel of 'working to live' rather than the other way alot of the time in Melb.

    Generally i like it up here.  Selective places in Noosa decent as well which i did late last year.

    Cant say im a huge fan further up as just too hot and cant hit the beaches around Cairns & beyond unless you have a death wish.

    With that lifestyle, they probably live forever

    Olympics? Should of been disbanded years ago. Totally corrupt.  Hardly anyone bid for them.  Who is paying for it?  Qld?  The federal Gov will foot a large part of the bill which is disgraceful. That means Victoria will be paying for your infrastructure  as usual. Enjoy.

    Has any major sporting code ever had a successful sojourn into the Gold Coast.  
    As far as I know (happy to be corrected) Rugby, soccer and basketball have also tried and failed.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
