I understand that by attending last year's conference help my new local government secure 60 million in road funding. This money was to seal a road that the State Government promised to seal in 1957 when it closed the rail access to our town. Unfortunately there a State election soon and last time there was funding for this project the State spent the money in Perth on the expansion of the train passenger network. I did learn how the Victorian State Government needs to hand over 200 million to the Glengle Shire so they can fix their roads. Plus NSW councils need more road funding from their State government. Apparently the Federal Transport Department wants a new user pays road funding system as the current fuel taxes are unfair and not providing them with enough income. You city slickers believe everything the Fed's tell you about the NBN and how it provides fast Internet to everyone. Well video conferencing requires decent Internet speeds, plus it's a poor way to deliver a conference. The NBN started construction in my area in May 2013 and it has not been completed as yet. I assume they want to complete their entire east coast network before they complete my area. IMO it should be called the NBN.CON.

Unfortunately flying back to Western Australia on the 12th.

It an annual local government national road conference. I am attending the conference for the first time for professional development purposes. I understand it's a great way to network and increase your local government's chances of gaining road funding.

Anyone been to Toowoomba, Qld? I am spending a few days there for a Road Conference and was wondering if there is anything worth seeing?

Surely the AFL and Essendon can negotiate an outcome that is satisfactory to both parties ?

Watch out for the snake Red. It's an Essendon supporter!

No time for cheap points OD. As I need to travel 3,000 km in four days by car. Then flying to Queensland for a Roads meeting. Flowers will simply not cut the mustard with Mrs Frog.

I been driving too fast to get a really good look at all the wild flowers. But I am very much inland (about 600km north of Kalgoolie). If you plan to travel West, let me know as I have a spare bed.

After driving over 3,000 km in a week it time to kick back and catchup on my reading of this thread. Oh R&B forget Queensland bananas, it's too late to stop the pending distruction.

What about renaming the award to the best player award (remove the word fairest as it just gets in the way).

So you are a Holden man Red?

Was anyone else at Subiaco Oval in 2006 to watch the last time the MFC played a finals game?

2036?

Let's say I need to do a lot of driving (12 hours to get home) and flying, otherwise I will break my must follow rule number 1. Rule 1 is happy wife = happy life.

So at this stage I will put you down for 11 wins while my guess is more optmistic at 12. Your positive thinking is rubbing off on me!

I am moving to a remote town which is located at the Centre of WA (Mid West/Goldfields) which is not as far as Onslow / Wyndham (Pilbara), l have already lived further north (Newman) during the 90's.

Planning my move up North to where there is sun and more sun. I think all I will be getting is a lot of heat and sun. Unfortunately Mrs Frog will remain down South in the cold. Not sure if there is a TV service where I am going, so I will need you guys to give my detailed match reports for next season and as many banana recipes as you can. As Mrs Frog alway bursts out in laughter when she talks about the MFC so I need more reliable match reports and she also not a big fan of bananas. From what I have read so far, it appears the MFC will be turning Essendon for next two or three years. Only things missing is Hird and his totally legal supplements program. 2017 should be interesting, OD how many games will the MFC win?

Earl are you chasing one of BBO's blue rinses?

Oh I was not aware they lost their last game by 111 points? May be we have a chance with this list after all.

I hope that you are right. Unfortunately, the current MFC team couldn't beat a depleted MessyDrugs team and lost their final game by over 110 points. IMO the MFC list still needs a lot of work.

Give them another 20 years and I think they have a chance to get that 13th flag!

DC things may not be looking good for the Dees with regards to Jesse!

My best playing position is Left Right Out.

Hi OD I had stopped supporting the Eagles way back at the end of the 1998 season and its very unlikely I would ever go back to become a supporter again. I been away from DL because of the AFL commissions support towards 34 drug cheaters. As a result, I don't think I have actually watched an entire AFL game all season. But I did notice the Dees had won 10 games this season as per your prediction, well done! Next years can you predict a 30 goal win in the Grand Final against the Pies or Hawks (anyone really)? I know good thinks come to he who waits, but is over 50 years way too long a time?

What did I miss?
