  1. Is that the "free zone" ? It was a while ago, but the last time I was on the #70 from the G to the city we were told the free zone didn't start till you got to Flinders street and the part behind tennis courts an up Batman ave was still a paid zone. Has that changed? Or do they do free "footy special" type services now?
  2. ... hopefully not something like this!
  3. I wasn't being smart. Just wondering how it'd be done and what exercises would specifically target muscles in neck. It's obviously not something like arms, legs or core which you can train more directly...
  4. Interesting. How does one strengthen neck muscles exactly?
  5. If we make finals then there will be plenty of time for players like Trac to rest and freshen up during the two weeks after R23 We have two massive games coming up and need all available hands on deck.
  6. Posted this in the "3 word" thread, but more relevant here... I didn't think Petracca was that bad yesterday. His ability to go at the loose ball in a 2 or 3 on 1 situation and either come away with it, or knock it to the advantage of a team mate is unreal, and he did that several times yesterday. Also, how good would that goal have been in the first if not for the smother? He is not smashing it in the eyes of the statisticians, but then neither are guys like Hannan, but what they do off the ball and/or to help others get the ball shouldn't be ignored.

  8. There was a big contingent of very confused looking students at the top of the Olympic - some with a distinctive eastern European accents - trying to figure out what they needed to do, where to sit, deciphering what the food offerings were... etc. Beneficiaries of the free tickets methinks, and a few of them had brand new merch on! Hope they liked what they saw yesterday and come back!
  9. Yeah was definitely heart in the mouth stuff when he took that knock. As they said on the TV commentary though, it may have been the best thing that happened to him, as from that point on in the game he was awesome.
  10. Ahhhh.... and now his post makes total sense.
  11. We are playing Brisbane, not the team they flogged today. And we are not playing Freo either?
  12. There was actually a link which you could use to obtain tickets, but said ''allocation exhausted" the first time I saw it, and now doesn't work at all. Probably no thanks to leaches like this... https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/free-tickets.1173712/
  13. Razor Ray one of the three umps. Ah well, at least it aint Nicholls
  14. Watts, Frost, Salem & Maynard out Brayshaw, Wagner, Weideman & Hannan in
  15. Exactly. And it sends a strong consistent message to the entire team that there are no favorites, no 'names', and we are not going to carry any passengers. You can't have guys busting their gut not being given a chance ahead of guys who are not.
  16. Gus, Stretch, Hannan, Weid & Wagner in Frost & Salem out
  17. I hope if/when Gus comes back supporters are patient if he takes a few games to work his way back. Cause we were all saying similar things about Hogan a few weeks back, and look how long that lasted. Some want him to be traded FFS!
  18. His name escapes me, but the news breaker guy on SEN this morning who is usually pretty good said categorically that the meeting happened.
  19. So, her brother Jack runs around in the #9 This was her 9th marathon She finished 9th
  20. Yeah, not a good look at all for Gatlin to win, or even be running. His first conviction was probably 50/50 and he appealed it because the positive test was from medication he claimed he had used since childhood for ADD. Second time around though was testosterone and there is zero excuse for that. On the subject, I came across this on reddit yesterday which shows all the fastest 100m times run. The names crossed are those found to have been using illicit substances. Apologies for the image quality. Not my work...
  21. Because right now, Saints with everything to play for trumps our everything to play for. How often in important games do we come out on top? Hope to break the trend but recent history suggests.... ?
  22. You would have thought. This is #4 though, as mentioned so not counting my chickens yet... :/ Anyway, enough of this thread hijacking. Have all the people on the way up arrived safely? And how's the weather?
