Bitter but optimistic

Ha Ha Ha !!! Nice!

I can cop the Swans winning again!

Hope you're reading this Gnasher. There is a slaging match going on .. and ... not only am I not in it .... but ... wait for it - I got a like from both protagonists!!!!

Couple of points OD. 1,Mid year hols are still on - I,m going to vietnam in about 3 weeks. 2. Yes, I am there, but I go incognito so that my fans don't disturb my enjoyment of the game. Also, the "lads" watch the game on TV.

I don't share your enthusiasm for Norf anus but I reckon 3 or your 4 are where the flag will end up. Swans, Port or Hawks.

It's interesting Gnasher. You look at Steph and would reckon he was a natural (although his overhead marking was dubious) and he did play some great footy for us. (Remember Essendrug). What is it separates blokes who appear to have all the physical attributes and yet fail to make a consistent impact from those who become players? Must be what goes on up top? If only you could bottle it!

Spot on Ox! Further Jane, you should kick your son out of the household!

Robbie,I remember posting after we listed him that I thought he was a goer based on a televised game that I had seen. He took a couple of strong grabs and goaled. Then he went to [censored] for a while. Now he is killing it and an integral part of our set up. Maybe the X motivating factor is Roos?

Go Trident next year OD and sit in front of the Betty Cuthbert - great spot.

I'll bet some at Norf are regretting giving Pedo the arse as they are now struggling for a strong consistent forward.

What's to like OD?

Indeed! Don't attempt to list Biff's pecuniary interests, it is far simpler to remember that they are either illegal or immoral - usually both!!!

Nah Maple! That is just Stuie being his pig headed, obnoxious, self centered pissant self.

Yes and Biffen can confirm this. It's a little side earner he has going - just don't ask how he obtains said dentures. BTW the text on that poster is incorrect . It should read - "since they were brother and sister". Cousins marrying among the filth is virtually compulsory while sibling marriages are less (slightly) common and therefore somewhat newsworthy.

We also have the option of sending Frawley back if Cloke looks starting to create havoc.

Notice "greenies" and environmentalists don't feature on your in list Jazz. Just an oversight?

I had a conversation with Jack Trengove before the Darwin game a couple of years ago. Even then Tom Mac was very highly regarded among the playing group. Trengove was amazed at Tom's running ability both endurance and speed. This guy could become one of our great players.

Well I'm actually giving up quality time with the tatting group to go to the football. I park at the RACV club and walk to the "G" from there - it's a health thing. However, I usually need to break this laborious trek at either Y&J's or Fed Square. Off course I am quite parched by the time I finally arrive and seek solace in the "Betty Cuthbert" bar.

Correct OD!! Further Daise probably has them buying him lunch, drinks etc just to be first on the list.

What a K N O B!

How many blue rinsers are you bringing along DC? It will certainly swell the .... er .. club coffers. You know what I mean!!!

You're correct about Biffen's personal hygiene issues Jazz, but you are on dangerous territory with the canasta. This is strictly DC's area - canasta, euchre, hearts, bingo - it's all part of Dc's seductive web, whereby he builds a constant supply of unrequited shags from the blue rinse set. However, judging by Redleg's recent info it seems that WJ is also venturing into this area.

What's going on Fl og? I see you are back bigger and worse than ever. And .... what's more .. defriended me!!!!!!

Don't hold that against Magner. A lot of us "wallowed in self satisfaction (and relief) when Neeld was axed"

On an entirely different topic, I,sadly, must report that our rarely valued colleague Biffen, has been ordered to undergo rehab for the next two weeks. In order to show that he intends to change his ways, Biff has decided to isolate himself from family and friends at The Gat. The truth, of course, is that, Biffen’s family disowned him some years ago, after a particularly unsavoury incident or, actually incidents, involving a (formerly) maiden aunt and a few sherries. Further, due to a number of distasteful personal habits, Biff has no friends. Despite all this, Biff claims he is genuinely trying to reform, but in the absence of Lordweaver’s firm but god guided hand, his prospects, I believe, are bleak. The “Lads” have offered to help, but Biffen, immersed in drug assisted self pity, has rudely rebuffed them. I will, nonetheless, try to assist poor Biff in anyway I can but any suggestions for his personal development will be passed on.
