Give it 3 or 4 years, and Westies will hold the Blues to 0.5 at the same ground.

Hey, similar results have happened....

After being pipped at the post in 2019, the Tigers finally power to their first Pure Minor Premiership (tm), taking an unassailable lead with two games remaining. Get the T-shirts printed!

We tried Fasta Pasta South Tce back in early May this year (finals supper before heading back North)

Now it wasnt the best pasta I've ever eaten but for the bride and I, The Ravioli Milanese and the Tortellini Alla panna went down a treat.

I'll go back

solid 5/10

The one at Brighton goes alright.
I’m a regular there.
Had home delivery from that very outlet just last night.

Biden can't win on this, if he doesn't send troops back to eliminate these people that did this, he will look weak, the yanks will lynch him.
Going back in would be as futile as getting involved 20 years ago was.
The Russians couldn't win. So why did the yanks think they could?!
Better get The Enola Gay out of mothballs.
She should've stayed at home yesterday....

Two games on this arvo. Each promises to be worth watching. No free-to-air coverage.

Remind me, how much is the SANFL paying seven to not cover the league?

Glenelg completes its Pure season a week early undefeated at 14-zip, Pure Minor Premiers by a furlong. Hooray!

At the other end the Pure Spoon (tm) is still under contention ... Should Central succumb to the Eagles (not unlikely) and the Bloods knock off the Panthers (possible), and the sum of the points differences is a mite over 100 (ya never know), then the Dogs will inherit the woodwork.

Ladder to round 18:

Central.....13...3...0....802...1108....41.99
West........13...2...0....698...1110....38.61

The pure season comes to a close, with the Bays finishing a perfect season with a 14-zip record against dinkum teams, eclipsing the 12-zip perfect seasons achieved by the former Port team twice in the years before WWI. 8)

Compared with the degenerate official ladder we see that the Roosters have been dudded by the inclusion of results against rubbish teams; forced into an Elimination final.

Final ladder:

Yes on both counts. Sturt 2021 = Glenelg 2018.

Yeah, they just gifted a goal to Douglas...

Legs on top everywhere except scoreboard. No fluent Eagles movement. Stengle over the shoulder in Jim05 eyes should have gone to Redlegs.
Stengle had a free man and a chance to pass it to him but chose to be hungry and held the ball. Tackle was definitely over the shoulder, but had Stengle made the team choice in the first place then it wouldn't have been an issue.

I reckon he's getting toey....

At the first bounce, the bloke next to me yelled some "encouragement" to the Bays ruckman, and speculated that his direct opponent couldn't be any good if he was that fat.

Old eagles fan in front turns around and says "He gets a pie everytime he wins a tap."

Best comeback line I've heard at the football in ages. Kudos to you sir.

Started "Squid Game" last night. Sounds like a Korean Hunger Games. So far so good...

Im not a huge fan of dubbing, but this adds a serious comedy element to this show. For added kicks chuck the subbies on and see how different they are to whats spoken/dubbed :lol:
Mate I've got the subtitles on - but am listening to the Korean. I can't stand dubbing either!

Rather than starting a new thread for it: the SANFL app tells me that the Dogs have rolled the Eagles in the reserves prelim with the last score of the match. Bays v Dogs reserves granny next week.

What he said - but swap eagles for bays.

Congratz to the Eagles. Absolutely dominant. Every single one of 'em won their position today. Glenelg outmuscled, outworked, outcoached and just plain beaten.

Hope you eagles fans enjoy your back to back flags. May the car doors be slamming well into the wee hours at Woodville tonight.

Sitting in the waiting room at Wayville as I type, having just escorted on of the junior members of the household for a shot. The process is more automated since was last here - and the age of the crowd is easily several decades younger.

As an opposition supporter I always had a lot of respect for Poole. Would have had him at the Bays in a heartbeat. Very much a loss to the Eagles and the league.

His issue is that he likes sorting the paperwork and my proposal to download all the relevant info into a file (so one bloke out in the factory can just print it out to sort his stuff instead of hand writing 500+ 7 digit codes daily) is no good as the bloke on the floor doesn't know how to use computers..
Surely you just spend an hour per day teaching the bloke to use a computer FFS?
Surely the dumb f*er gets sacked and replaced with someone who can do the job.

There's a rep here that rocks up late and makes up for it by leaving early, he has a great knack of pretending to be busy while doing nothing.

I come out my office and there he is at his desk this late on a Friday so I said "Hey Shrek, is your car getting serviced?"

"Yeah mate, do you think you could drop me off to pick it up when you're finished?" He replied.

I was only trying to take the piss for why he was still here.

Tell him you rode your pushie in today and you can give him a dinkie if needed.
He's a massive unit, I'm not sure he'd know what a pushie is.

I'll just stop at the pub beforehand, he loves a beer.
Why don't you just take Booney straight to Pirate Life?

This is embarrassing... Spotify thinks I listened to an obscure '80s track by the Electric Pandas :oops: 22 times this year, more than any other track. Given that I listen mostly to playlists on shuffle, Spotify's random number generator should take most of the blame for this.

Artists of the other top tracks: Soulwax, Cabaret Voltaire, Kool and the Gang :oops:, Kavinsky. Clearly I bend towards electronica on spotify.

Top artist Felix da Housecat? Really?? Got one of his tracks on a playlist, might have specifically listened to his stuff once or twice over the year, but more than any other?!?

Anyone else game to share theirs?

Six clubs want the entry price risen by $5.

Raise the gate, scare away punters, sell less pies and beers. Most likely a net loss, especially since food/drink profits go straight to the clubs.

Next year will be the LAST payment of the land divestment fund (Footy park sale). $300K and it must be used to pay down debt.
About time the smears began paying their way then. They can't claim to have forgone the Magpies share of this income any longer.

Or better still, about time they fecked right off.

I had a test today at pt. Augusta on way home from holidays. Sore throat yesterday, runny nose today. Should be fine feels like a normal cold, but thought I better get tested as I've been around 14 or 15 family members all week.
Was about 20 people lining up for rapid testing to work at Roxby, I was the only one there for a normal test. Done in about 5 minutes whilst the kids and Mrs sat in the car.

**** it. Positive. WTF!
I feel 100% now.
Shouldnt have got tested :(
After 2 years we finally have our first SAfooty infectee. Congratulations!

I disengage from the Australia Day debate, I don't want to feel guilty celebrating a day that was always a special one growing up.

I now use it to catch up on some crap around the house, it has lost it's appeal and prestige.

I don't have the answer.

Yeah same....Australia Day used to be my favourite day of the year to celebrate my love of beer, bbq, cricket, pool/beach, music and women in bikinis. There nearly all gone now..no more cricket or music on Aussie Day and well as I reach my 40's women there is not as many women in bikinis attracted to me :lol: :lol:

Personally I would just love it moved to the first Monday of February as an example so then it isn't on an exact date as it would change each year. Then we can go about celebrating green and gold, bbq, kangaroos, boomerangs and wife beater singlets and we can **** any relevance to captain cook right off. Not that I think about any of that historic stuff on the day.

Yeah, some interesting "Aussie" points there, I don't think about Captain Cook at all on Australia Day, it was always more of Gangajang, Paul Kelly, John Willaimson and Schoumann, as kids we'd listen to Aussie anthems all day while the cricket was on, sometimes we got to go, then there was Skyshow on for the afternoon/evening.

Times have changed.
Australia Day has nothing to do with Captain Cook. Just sayin'.

Well after all. it is April Fools Day

Quite the contrary: The season begins on the Saturday with 4 games being played over the course of that day. Perfect start to the season I reckon! 8)

Can multiple people use the account at same time? Can you flick from game to game if played at same time?

7 day free trial ?.... but you have to subscribe? If you wanted .....do you sign up (watch today) then cancell on Monday if not impressed with coverage?

Who is coveraging on free to air and what game today?

No fta game today as they have the aflw gf on 7

Welcome to the eighth year of occupation.

Glenelg looking to go back-to-back after an undefeated 2021. The Bays currently on an 18 game winning streak having last lost in round 12 2020. The Roosters are Clear Minor Premiership Material (tm) with 2 big wins, including a solid away victory over last years' runner up.

The Bays go on their merry way, but the Roosters are the early pacesetters.

Not so much "look out" as "garde-à-vous"...

Round 5:

Only the Roosters and the Bays remain undefeated. Next week they meet at Prospect to determine which team is the Real Deal.

Kudos to the Roosters for this most brilliant homage to the past.

Brickbats to the SANFL for programming this game with an early start time on Mothers' Day. Will likely have to give this one a miss.

"You’re all not true supporters. Nothing to do with our coach. We played we take responsibility for it, it’s not acceptable. If your not willing to support us through this you shouldn’t support us . But don’t try blame it on one person."

This is the dumbest thing anyone at a football club can say.
Yeah, anyone with a modicum of intelligence would've written "if you're not willing..."

Glenelg gets beaten for the first time in well over a year, and their conquerors fittingly take their place at the lead of the Pure Ladder (tm).
