Rod Grinter Riot Squad

I will just have to start working the phones tomorrow, call every Alice parliamentarian, numerous calls to CM’s office (numerous voices), demanding they let the game go ahead!

Yes, my son was (hopefully still is, but not expecting it) going to be doing Auskick, as he was last year before the women’s game was a lock out. It’s a great time here, with the Finke desert race over the Queens birthday weekend, it is huge for Alice Springs. Unfortunately the government here really just focus on Darwin, it is where all the seats are, so am a bit worried about us getting screwed, but they have changed border restrictions overnight, so it does depend on what happens in the next 4 days, but am still hopeful.

Unless the COVID numbers explode, I would be surprised if the NT government don’t let the game go ahead

Play it in Alice and make it our hub!

Geez the dogs are brilliant at the quick handball, but they really do get away with a few throws. It’s like the umpires are scared to call it due to how good they do handball

They also sook when they win!

Nobody should look at this [censored], it harms your eyes

Oh no a 2 hour flight. Toughen up princess, the game in Alice is brilliant

I know the umpiring has been one sided, but I can’t recall a coach whining about it at half time like Hardwick, what a little [censored]

Bit annoyed there are no kids versions available

Love this kid. Funny though, while his kicking has improved, his goal kicking goes backwards. My only knock on him previously was he seemed to be lazy when the opposition had the ball, but this is no longer the case (same with Bradshaw), he is on track to being our best mid since Tulip, possibly better (though I only saw the second half of his career). This team can be anything, backs like Salem, Lever, Hunt, May and Rivers, wings in Lingers and Gus, mids in Trac, Clarry and Viney, forwards in TMac, Brown, Weideman, ANB Spargo and Kossie, Jackson replacing one, led by Gawn, I expect the drought to break with a 50s like flood!

We have finished on top, just not in a 22 game season

Nice, thought his contract finished this year

Free agent, we would get compensation though.

Game going perfectly for us with the Dogs and Port, though two sitters missed by the dogs.

Don’t get me wrong, I love Dogga, in the relief ruck role Tom or Sam can’t match him, but I think Sam will do better with the time he gets as a forward

Dogga has been playing as a forward, back up ruck, a role both TMac and Weideman have played before, I think Sam does it better, a no brainer for me, Weeds in!

Old, we spared many times on ‘ology, but I always respected your opinion and considered you one of the more knowledgeable posters, this post affirms why. Credit to Nasher and others, for some wonderful posts in a thread I almost didn’t open a second time,

I will always have a soft foot for Jack as he was so wonderful with kids, I often took my daughter to training 7 years ago and he was just brilliant in his interaction with her and a few years later when we had moved to Alice Springs he was also fantastic with my son, the kids loved him.

Still have the ring tone you sent me!

You remember correct. We almost came to blows, Gandalf (aka Satirycon) physically restrained us from going to car park, Who was a low life dog!!

I posted there as Korean Demon, had a justifiable hatred of Dr Who, feeling was mutual and his first act on getting the keys to the site was to ban me, went to new site, had a debate with the owner about something and found myself locked out. Always loved Land, but miss the old ‘ology

I expressed frustration at the offer being leaked, bit different than questioning your integrity.

My comment was purely a joke, I have given up long ago on getting any consistency from the MRO and don’t let it upset me anymore
