they could all be wasting their lives by attending every glenelg game during the day, and mars bar at night with you?????? are they??????? help us out bayman!!!!!!!!!!

OR maybe they're the smart ones and got out the game, there isn't much future or money in it.

I will help you out with one of them though, the bottom one, apparently he was seen taking a leading trainers ex wife out for tea for her birthday thursday night,

STS - Unlike others who are "Bandwagon" supporters, Bayman goes to as many SANFL games he can - in the rain / hail and heat and every Glenelg game, win / lose / draw.. I hate Glenelg, but respect Bayman for his committment to his team...

What I will do is help out with a couple of the others Bayman..

J Seal - got pushed out of the game after he pulled Mincha Tom up and kept the favourite out 6 wide for the first 400m when he'd backed the 2nd favourite in the race (Aussie Land) who got an easy lead because of it - all I can say is well done to the stewards for keeping an eye on these things, he got 6 months and no one would put him on after that...

A Beshara - good junior driver that unfortunately has had some issues off the track.. Adam is a really good guy and would have made it as one of the better SA Harness drivers if not for the problems.

WE can add Simon JONES to that list shortly ????

What about Rockin' Robbie Dittmar?

I can help out with a few of the above mentioned former participants. I think you'll find Captain Quirk just became too busy with shoeing, Adam Beshara is a valuable side kick to his old man JB and then possibly the saddest loss to the game was the loss of desire to continue from the highly regarded Josh Seal. Now this will be a surprise to most but last time I saw Ditts, he was having a quiety in the front bar of the Northern Tavern Apparently he was helping out Matty Harding there for a while but Matty was too hard on Ditts.

I'm about to catch up with Ditts now & have "a quiet one"
I think Ditts reckons all his bosses are too hard on him- unless his boss demanded he drink more beer!

NO ONE COULD ARGUE ABOUT DITT'S

and for all the JOSH SEAL fans i just spoke to him, and he happily mentioned, SCD'S GOT NO IDEA LIKE EVERYONE THOUGHT, WHAT'S NEW, IT WAS ONLY 4 MONTHS, AND THE WIN WAS, in his own words "MASSIVE, MORE THAN THOSE'S GRUBB'S WILL SEE IN A LIFE TIME"

as for AB, he mentioned, TOP BLOKE, and WELL TAUGHT BY A VERY SAMART MAN, HIS OLD MAN "JB", one of the GREATS.

AB - agree completely with you STS.. was a huge loss to the industry... Won't go into it here - but Adam's 'Personal issues' were not of his doing and i'm just glad that things have worked at as good as they have for him considering...

As for Josh Seal - you are correct 4 months it was, I stand corrected..
but seriously - given the amount of drives he had - don't think he would of had any fans, except for a stable hand that was working for Ross Sugars - who also won on that night... I know the win was big, well into the 5 figures is what I was told and his now sister-in-law drove the winner...

My view is that it's pretty sad for the industry that people have to cheat to win the kind of money Josh did that Tuesday night... It's that kind of thing that gets the trots called the "red hots"... I can honestly say my biggest win is $9k on a race, no where near what Josh has won - it was in 2001 when my horse won @ $18 and the tri paid $6,500 - but I won that fair and square without getting someone to get the favourite beaten... Worst bit for me is that I had horses with Scaffidi for the next 30 months and Scaffidi drove only 1 more for me!!

STS/SCD you can both cheer up by following my LATE MAL tips which
I will evaluate mid morning on Monday
If that doesent work watch Kevin Pieterson batting for England
Or watch West coast Eagles play footy
Barring that there is a Best Jokes forum in the Entertainment Room
But if you want a real laugh come to the nets sometime and watch me
bowl to KAYEFF and MT79 that will make you laugh as well.
