Bitter but optimistic

I'm off to the colonies today so try and keep this thread respectable during my absence. I of course will be at my diplomatic best and endeavouring to undo some of the damage Biffen carried out on his recent sojourn.

Big game - I'll be there in spirit but as I'm heading off to the colonies in Asia I'll be on a flight for the entire game. I will however, fire up the ipad as soon as I land in KL hoping to read of another famous victory.

Well I can't really make a fair assessment Red. I had the maid apply it once but she became violently ill during the process and I haven't seen her since.

I'd want him to play a few games at Casey and earn his spot.

FMD. He wouldn't want to waste his money buying a lotto ticket.

FMD !!!!

Given the history, wasn't it a wonderful thing to see Jack Watts ice the cake today? Bye bye Bucks !!

Ha ha good for you Jane!! Show no mercy!!

Happy household tonight Jane?

Jones Kept us in it then helped to win it. Can never understand some of the flak he cops here. Petracca Provided some brilliance Watts - Some gut running and was there at crucial moments Garlett - Created opportunities Hibbert - Best pick we've had for years Hunt - His pace is a real weapon

DID WE WIN? WE [censored] IT IN!!

Time to produce the coathanger Ethan. That should dispel any doubts.

Jeez dc you're drawing on an historical example there.

Poor old Bitter cant make it today and ....................... I have a feeling I'm going to regret it. I'm tipping a win for the ages. A turning point. A season definer. A march to the finals ............. and any other cliché you care to add.

To some extent, but the rule of Prior opportunity was strictly enforced.

In your case Ethan, I am certain you are speaking from experience.

Have you had experience in this matter Red or is this hearsay? I ask, because I tried a similar cure for another ..... err ..personal affliction and it failed miserably. And ..what's more ...it made people think I had personal hygiene issues.

Red, I'm not sure of anything anymore - form, the rules, politics, financial prospects, a cure for tinea, my testosterone levels ...etc. etc.

I can't remember a season like this. Literally anyone can beat anyone.

You'll get two brendan

Have you tried that Lothario ? Well Ethan, I watched the last half of that game and I am now convinced I have absolutely no idea of the rules of Football.

Yes, one swallow doesn't make a spring as they say OD. However, what impressed me was the fact that he bounced back from 3 or 4 absolutely shizen performances to play a very good game. Shows a bit of character I reckon.

I'm surprised Gerard Healy hasn't cracked a mention. I remember him kicking some absolute crackers. He was very good at running around the mark but also would rove off the pack or boundary throw ins in the FL. I also have great memories of Neitz. Especially for big bombs from outside 50 that would sail through at half post height.

Really liked Weid's game yesterday. He had a run of shockers but yesterday looked a very good developing footballer. I hope he spends the rest of the year at Casey and actually dominates a game or two. He's still a skinny kid who, hopefully, we can make a 10 year player out of.

What else can you expect from a ranga?
