  1. To me, he has “I will stuff up again” written all over him. And he is a massive bath water consumer.
  2. Exemplifies why the Lions were only too happy for Schache to head home to his mum. I bet she tucked him in last night with a “there, there sweetie. Don’t cry. Those big boys are just too mean!”
  3. It’s the second time in a week that The Bostonian has been scratched. Had a shocking gate last week too. When the rail is out at Doomben it makes it even more difficult for those drawn wide. Still, keep an eye out for it. Dane Thunder similarly drew wide but usually not an issue at Sandown. That mail came from somebody very closely connected to the horse too. Yeah, Dafeenah comes via a very reliable source. Was $9 in this mornings (Brisbane) paper. Tongue tie on may be a key.
  4. A late one...Gold Coast R2 - 4 Dafeenah.
  5. I’m not huge on the punt but do get the odd bit of mail which is occasionally profitable. Tomorrow I have these: Doomben R2 - 11 Heavenly Thought Doomben R6 - 12 Schism Doomben R9 - 11 The Bostonian Sandown R2 - 13 Dane Thunder They are all worth a few $ each way and throwing in any multiples.
  6. Our game is Grooted.
  7. I fly to Shanghai in a couple of hours. Not going for the game but I will be interested to see the levels of local interest. I am staying not too far from the stadium but have no plans to go to the game. I was in China for last years game and although not in Shanghai, saw nothing on TV or anywhere else advertising the match then. I look forward to checking out the write-ups in the local media both before and after the game.
  8. 6. T.Mac 5. Jones 4. Harmes 3. Hibberd 2. Oliver 1. Salem
  9. What the hell has Nev being indigenous got to do with him (apparently) not receiving protection from umpires? “Black fella” WTF?
  10. I live in East Brisbane about 400 metres from the Gabba. It was very windy here yesterday although fine and sunny. Looks pretty much the same today although a tad cooler. Wind at this stage not as strong as yesterday. The Gabba surface should be just about perfect for the game. The Victorian based fans will be easy to spot. They will be the ones in short sleeved shirts with sunscreen on their faces. Us acclimatised and transplanted wannabe banana benders will be wearing jackets! Brrrrrr!
  11. Well, that proves it. ANB has photos of the coach in a compromising position with a farm animal.
  12. Maybe email Deb at [email protected] Quite a number of the Queensland Demons group live on the GC and you may he able to get a lift up.
  13. One needs to get his ego in check and play 100 minutes of football. Brayshaw is doing everything right.
  14. He has the best hands I have seen for many, many years. I guess we as MFC supporters take him for granted a little now. If we step back and look at his achievements, we will see he is tracking better than Martin, Dangerfield and Fyfe did at the same age. We are so fortunate to have such a phenomenal talent in our team. The scary thing for opposing teams is that he is still learning his craft. I feel blessed to be watching this young champions career unfold.
  15. To win relatively easily with still a lot of room for improvement should be very pleasing for us Dees fans. Some however always have to have their weekly spank regardless. It’s great to be one-eyed but going blind is a completely different prospect. I’d say get a grip but some of you already have.
  16. Surely the best 22 are the guys selected for the upcoming game? Anything else is a wish list.
  17. Actually one of the better umpires. I’ll back his professionalism.
  18. Pedo on standby if Jesse doesn’t get up.
  19. If they can prepare about 16 others we’ll be a huge chance.
  20. He was found in possession of an amount deemed to be excessive for personal use - a traffickable amount. I haven’t looked at the Act but possession of certain drugs are deemed prima facie “traffickable” amounts by weight. He may not be selling drugs per se, but being found in possession of specific amounts automatically brings the trafficking charge.
  21. Flower. No contest.
  22. Good question ignition. I guess for me, I had perhaps pumped myself up more in preparation for this season a lot more than in recent years on the back of 2017. I could not wait for this season to begin. So to see what has transpired to date is truly demoralising. I flew down from Brisbane for the Richmond game and although not really expecting a win, hoped we would play better but the last quarter not only disappointed me, it angered me. A broken little finger attests to that. Having supported the team for more than 50 years, my general mindset has tended towards being content with reasonable performances - win or lose. This year I (foolishly) expected more and now it looks like a lot less. I think a lot of us are in that same boat. It does cause extreme disappointment and disillusionment but hey, we DO support the and blue and those things tend to come with the territory although very bitter tasting this year.
  23. Mate, you need a manager. You’re handling yourself waaayy too much.
  24. Guys, the main problem in not on the field. Players divided. Not a happy place.
