  1. I do the same but drop mine one month earlier as all the finals are on channel 7. We bought a "Telstra TV" box on gumtree for $50 (don't need to be with Telstra to use it) and watch the games on kayo in hd on it. Have done this for the last 2 years and it's great
  2. I got a blanket made up last year and it's great. It's a lot heavier and warmer than I thought it would be so it's great in winter. With all the different lengths, widths, styles and colours we've had over the years it's a bit of a hodgepodge which I like
  3. They're all for the men's team, there's no junior memberships for the AFLW team
  4. I received a scarf before Christmas, that's it, just a scarf. No membership letter, no membership card with the personalised player I'd chosen, no lanyard, no stickers, no fridge magnet with the draw on it. Just a single scarf. Rang the club and they had no explanation. Then asked if there was any kids AFLW memberships or merch as we've just had a daughter and I want her to be a member for both teams like me. No memberships or merch available, thought that was a missed opportunity
  5. Did they do this last year? I have this vague recollection they tried to make an Americanised style show on the AFL website at 7.30pm to showcase the big last minute trades

    That was a ripper thread. His talk about "landing a big fish" had a lot of us thinking of the use of a Gaff to pull one in
  7. When did fingering your mate's balloon knot become a thing? I really have no idea why it's done and why people defend it. It's not normal in any way
  8. He's a long straight leading style of forward. Would we be able to hit him on the chest anyways?
  9. He looks like he's bulked up in the glutes and is bottom heavy, just doesn't seem to be moving fluently anymore
  10. I thought he was offered another year but he declined to go home and earn much better money with a job as an engineer or something? I vaguely remember reading something about him saying he set himself the challenge to play top level and he was happy with what he achieved. I also remember the Uber Alex Georgiou Facebook page was a bit funny
  11. Thanks for that. It was a great little riddle to keep us going in an otherwise dull period!
  12. There's a fella currently moving around town finding out. Lets us know what the minimum cost is and how much you get for that. Pretty sure the answer is a lot for not that much https://www.broadsheet.com.au/melbourne/food-and-drink/article/defining-minimum-chips-maximum-mission-melbourne-enthusiast
  13. Do we have to wait 53 minutes until 7.31pm @Yokozuna?

    Trade radio reporting his manager just walked into the room. We'll know where he's going shortly
  15. 1. Refurbished one of my eskys to make it much more efficient 2. Learnt how to play Finska and had a lot of fun and beers playing it. 3. Booked our honeymoon to Greece for later in the year, and then later realised it's during the freaking finals. Fmd how could I stuff that up!!!
  16. Hi all, my family want to all go to the Geelong game but none of us have ever been to a game there before. Just wondering if anyone could let me know where the Dees fans usually are. Or which end (North or South) the cheer squad sit and we could go near them perhaps? Cheers
  17. He didn't fail the Freo physical with that foot did he ala Jack Trengove?

    Getting married on a few weeks and we're having a cheese cake. 5 wheels of cheese stacked on top of each other. Can't bloody wait to cut into it!
  19. There's a few familiar surnames in that team. Hopefully we get a few games on NITV over the summer so I can tune in
  20. Don't have enough words to describe this guy. He's a superstar on and off the field in my eyes
  21. Draw, then Pies by 1 in extra time. Sidebottom for Norm. The big Texan for 1st goal

    I'm still waiting for The Riddler to return with the rumour we're finally giving that rookie spot to M. Goatflaps. I seriously love this time of year
  23. Perhaps Gawn/Preuss will be the third tall behind TMac and Weid?
  24. Very much look forward to seeing our total team votes. Rarely get a player in double figures let alone near the leaderboard!

    Ha just in the back bar of the pub. I wanted the photo in front of the big John Belushi and gopher Caddyshack photo but the lighting over the jack dancer stick machine was brighter!
