DEE fence

Not sure we should be helping - I used to think the Spanish were mad lazy buggers for having siesta. I now realise they are inspired geniuses, love my nana nap (when I can get one!

My Taliban is Essendon by a long way, (even the club nickname is disgusting-an indiscriminate killing device) but still a hierarchy of loathing after that, Carlton (despite their flourishing mediocrity), WCE, Adelaide, and Hawthorn. Dislike: Geelong (more from being a protected species and good for a long time) Roos Non plussed about: Dogs Lions Swans Saints Tigers GWS Port Amiable intent: Freo (continue to spoil us as our trading bunnies). Pity: Suns Shakespearean Rage: For family reasons Collingwood, they are our Capulets (without any Juliet).

You have been clear on this point - When it looked like there is a possibility of playing them 4 times in one year, I must admit it did occur to me to worry for you. 😁

Hawkins smashed May’s eye socket… so for this VDB and Jones last game, time to put some pre finals hurt on, Hawkins and Selwood at the top of the list. Personally I don’t have it in for Danger.

WCE should really chair Margetts off the ground...

Ripper contest this Derby, umpiring is pretty good except for that boundary boo boo.

Kind of you-Hopefully this includes Sudan/African based MFC fans. (-;

Just putting it out there, if anyone has a GF ticket guarantee, and it is in Perth and sadly they can't go, I would be willing to pay, and I would be flying back to Australia anyway, so the quarantine is no matter, I will need to do anyway. And even if we don't make it I still get to see family. Is obviously a risk because it feels like a jinx to plan for a GF we are not in yet, but it is doing my head in at the thought of missing it. Seeing a prelim in Perth wouldn't hurt either.

I think on their forum they said if there is a link to the club by the (moderated) they would be binned. I really liked Adam Simpson's take on racism on the Amazon Prime documentary. He was clear about not walking past it and calling it out on the spot. Explained clearly and with passion.

Personally I think Clarko is coaching for wins just to [censored] with Hawthorns draft position. 😈

I was meaning to do some research on this, but i have only seen one lost all year, any other tragic who has the stat on this?

2m Peter at Essendon yesterday had me thinking about Weid. Persist I say, I would also be happy if Tmac took a rest, we need him in good shape for finals and I actually reckon Weid would be better in a mobile role a’la Tmac, even if not as good… yet.

Bern saying this about Viney all year perfect for finals and the GF dance.

G'day Rab, thanks for the hello, I assume from the likes to your post, more than one was interested so will reply here and not on PM. I work as the Operations head for the UN World Food Programme (https://www.wfp.org/countries/sudan) , which basically means professional garbage sweeper. Whenever there are dramas with our operation (generally vibrations between our Programme and Logistics units or Government interference) I gather the folks together and we either sing Kumbayah or crack heads together, whatever folks choose. Have worked in lots of countries (East Timor/Kenya/Somalia/PNG/Italy/USA/Sierra Leone/Ghana/Uganda/Ethiopia/Sweden/Germany+++) I did a trip to Meroe and it was very cool, sunset, a full moon and sunrise with the pyramids amongst the sand dunes was way cool, felt like i was on a starwars set. there are also temple ruins not too far away that are ultra impressive for detail. Glad you ask about the railway, quite proud of that, we (WFP) are fixing it, we did Port Sudan to Kosti (so freight can go now from Port Sudan to Kosti then by Barge to south Sudan. Now the old régime (Bashir) is on the outer, we don't have a bunch of @#$^$%& generals forcing us to use their trucks for transport and we can support the rehabilitation of rail, good for so many reasons, including environmental. We now have a 80 million dollar project to fix connections to Gedaref, the Darfurs and eventually South Sudan. Re Wadi Halfa the train is not regular but will be getting better. The first operation for WFP (#001) was actually feeding people dislocated by the Aswan dam and relocated to Wadi Halfa. will stop there as this is a mighty derail (sorry) of the thread, replies for more detail please PM. Re what's it like, the people are brilliant, a level of hospitality and honesty that has to be seen to be believed, if you only watched CNN you'd never understand how brilliant people usually are. It is also hot and dusty and often tragic. The alcohol ban is mega annoying, but I specialize in logistics. I enjoy my job which helps, recently working on the Tigrayans displaced from the civil war in Ethiopia, setting up food supply and distribution to some remote spots.

Agree with all this, and was going to ask what you thought of Taylor but you finished it off nicely.

Taylor owned Hawkins and is to the eye, 10kg+ lighter, that was a serious game by him. I also watched Hawkins do half a dozen dirty things to try and put him off. Was sitting CDG Paris waiting for my flight back to Sudan (would rather be in Melbourne believe me) and had nothing to do so watched the game. I was very impressed with how excited they were about the win as well.. Just sad we don't pound the cats next week, they will be very sore [censored] after tonight.

Real gold there. Loved how the giants banged up the Cats, very good for us.

Personally I am hoping 2018 PF still burns and that the club has had this one pencilled in all year. This is the one I want more than any other in the H+A season. This gets us 2nd or 3rd and the perfect drop into the finals. (Adelaide etc)

LoL, is this original, is genius?

I would rather trade you for a Collingwood supporter

Trengove was an injured gun, not a NQR like Toumpas.

St Kilda and Freo, feel good factor but not a real serious threat.

WCE, Port, Carlton, Suns, Richmond and Collingwood, Clarko is spoilt for choice, hahhahahaha

3min left 10 pts, really hate WCE, happy for Roos to win.

Agree - He hits targets with handball more than some of the mids.
