you are most welcome, benny...

hey, mad... every mother's son wants to hide in the forward pocket... not enough room there for all the applicants... and against this team, talkingcarlton, there are really no places to hide... the coaches will decide, god bless them... (I remember the days when we didn't have coaches, and we sometimes had 5 or 6 players trying to squeeze into the forward pockets... :angry:) last game against saintsational, the sainters at one stage had 12-13 blokes on their forward line while we were kicking goal after goal at the other end... if your mate wants forward pocket because he wants to go first change into the mid-field, I unconditionally withdraw this post and extend my apology to him...
