Is that a Threadgold Thoroughgrip Garterette?

I see what you’re getting at, but I also think they might want to give the Gawn/Preuss forward/ruck combo a proper try out before taking it into a match where premiership points are at stake. I suppose we’ll find out soon enough.

I don’t know much about that, but the resolution is: 5760 × 3840 (22.3 effective megapixels)

Is it possible the lens is not full frame compatible?

5D is full frame, 7D is not. 5D uses both SD and Compact Flash, 7D uses just Compact Flash (can’t recall what limitations there are regarding the size of the CF card). I used to use a 7D and upgraded to a 5D Mark III... now dreaming of when I can afford to upgrade to a Mark IV.

A bit shameless self promotion here... my band Los Romeos Oxidados recorded live at the Marrickville (Sydney) bar known as The Gasoline Pony, covering a Lefty Frizzell tune "Watcha Gonna Do Leroy" (maybe not everybody's cup of tea, but a bit of fun nevertheless) - note also, if you hang on after this tune finishes, there are six more clips of varying lengths that will start up automatically (starting with our version of King Crimson's 21st Century Schizoid Man); but be warned, production values were thrown out of the window and we're probably fortunate that we weren't as well!:

Catholic clubs apparently have no issue with gambling: https://mobile.abc.net.au/news/2012-09-27/carlisle-catholic-clubs/4283660

As I drive down from Sydney at this time each year so my son can catch the first session, I'm hoping they stick to the usual arrangement of the first Friday (I think it is) of the new year... in which case it will be on the 4th January.

I have it on good authority that the sonar being used in the search for MH370 has just picked up a signal that matches a certain 2009 #1 draft pick.

Eventually??

Play him in the back line with Frost

I’m guessing Range Rover... similar narcissistic tendencies.

While the biscuits have been removed from this thread, we seem to have been left with a few that are crackers.

You’re missing out on the therapeutic goodness to be gained from taking the opportunity to needlessly speculate, be outraged and wring one’s hands.

May (meets thread criteria) I cite you on that?

You have to view that in terms of what it was in response to DC. ?

Iced VoVos at #13 and Cheds at #24... the world’s gone mad I tell you!!

And while we’re at it, I want to know whatever happened to Uneeda crackers and Bacon Thins.

There is this...

Yeah, even if he was one of our better players yesterday... and even if he has performed at a much improved level since his recall.

It was mentioned last night on AFL360.

From Peter Caven’s Wiki page... “Caven was the victim of an infamous act of AFL thuggery when St Kilda's Tony Lockett struck him viciously in the face and broke his cheek-bone during a game in 1994. Lockett was handed a heavy suspension of eight weeks for the incident. In an absurd twist, Caven was forced to issue an apology to Lockett the following week after appearing on comedy television show Denton and, at the urging of host Andrew Denton, bashing an effigy of Lockett with a baseball bat. The following season, Caven and Lockett were team-mates at Sydney.”

Didn’t Plugger Lockett poleaxe a Swans player with similar results the season before he moved to the Swans? I’m pretty sure they kissed and made up during the preseason.

The Colombian's was definitely a reflex action coupled with an arm going out for balance as he attempted to defend... I cannot believe that the VAR is utilised when it shouldn't have been (in the case of the Australia game and possibly the Korea game?), yet not utilised in the case of the Colombian send off when it probably should have been. It's an absolute joke and just one more reason to become more and more disillusioned with the (not so) beautiful game, never mind all of the diving that appears to have been taken to a new level (is that even possible?).
