Red and Bluebeard

I don't like the sound of those "shady lawns" ... shady characters only!

There are those who claim the only thing better than beating the Pies by two points is beating them by one point .... Not me, though -- I am in the camp that says a twenty-goal win is twice as good as a ten-goal one ...

As long as your neighbour is neither a lyrebird nor an albatross ... :-)

Should have known to look on a golf course ... :-)

Where is DF at all? Hope the thieves didn't steal his internet connection. I thought he and OD would be swapping war stories as they both scrabble around on the floor trying to find their jaws ... :-)

You mean the People's Democratic Albatross-free Republic of Romsey, where lyrebirds are nervous, and alpacas roam free ...

You ran over an albatross as well? You must drive a tank! :-)

Is that like killing a mocking bird? You sound like a sick man, BBO :-)

Perhaps he did some dancing in the dark? And were you born in the USA, WJ? :-)

Hope it all goes well. But if the anaesthetic is Grunters whatsit, then you may need to allow time to recover from that as well ...

The comments on the thread I will let go through to the keeper.As for Kingswood Country and the like. I think it is reasonable to say that it reflected the Australia of its day - a rougher, cruder and arguably simpler place than today (which is not necessarily better or worse, just different)

For ever and ever, amen, OD!

In 30 years time, fta tv won't exist -- it will be all pay-per-view on Youtube ...

It is not exactly kicking goals from all parts of the ground at the moment, either ...

Well before political correctness become the norm. I doubt `The Naked Vicar Show' would make it as a title today, and as for characters like Leo [censored] ...

Not the Kingswood! I just put a new tennis ball on the tow bar!

There is only one way to get off the topic on this thread ...

If that is for the game against the Dogs, it will be like that for a spot near the fence, I think, so that we can do high-fives after a win!

There is no such stand that I am aware of, but we can make one in honour of your visit ...

Let us know what you decide, DF. Perhaps we can all meet in the "No T$ No B$" stand that day...

But did the tea leaves sign a waiver? And are in denial? Or just swimmimg around endlessly because they can't sleep? :-)

If they haven't settled by now, that is one hell of a cup ...

As OD said, it depends on your definition of "best". QB will almost certainly have the biggest crowd, and there is certainly something in hearing a big roar (and even better the silence if we finally manage to knock off the Pies on the big day ). There is also something to be said for sitting near the fence when the crowd is small, and hearing what the players say to each other when the play is nearby. For probability of winning, then the only standout for me is the Giants game late in the season. I suspect, though, if we beat the Eagles in round 2, you will wish that you were there then ...

I have never really liked Adelaide, possibly because of the 1998 finals series, but this arrogance of theirs takes the cake, scone and biscuit for mine ... I'll be cheering with you, OD.

Speak for yourself ... i love the images that he finds ...
