EP Sport - back with a vengeance

[another grub]

Wee'll see OL, btb is a former Private Investigator and Tips can hack into the computers at NASA. I make a good coffee! Wer'e gunna get ya! You will slip up.

[bluestheboy]

We've got S Goodwin and what appears to be the back of Roo's head having some lunch at Del Giornio's at the minute. Shall I give them my autograph.....

I know that Roos a great player, but the ability to eat thru the back of his head is a remarkable talent.....

what are you talking about grub, btb thinks I'm you!!

[another grub]

btb knows I aint you. You like stirring the pot OL, expect to cop a lot of flack when we find you out.

[our_longreach]

Ohh Boo Hoo Grub... What you going to do? We're not on the footy field now!!

[bluestheboy]

maybe........

[another grub]

On a serious note, what does everyone think of the beer prices at footy? I think $3 a can is great value, no need for an eski anymore! Is it $3 at all venues? Do we have to drink Coopers at Ravendale? has anyone heard that? ak rates those snitzel burgers 10/10 at Centenary.

[WhiteTips]

grub is not OL. Period.

btb is right though...OL will slip up...my guess is it will be a slip up in the outside world not the "real word" we have on the net here

[our_longreach]

thanks for clearing that up WT, perhaps you could also clear up the btb/steiger ambiguity?

[WhiteTips]

have had a look, btb/steiger both post from the same geographical location, meaning it could be either or, but i have spoken to gary personally and he has backed up he is the poster of steiger.

watcha got there also posts from the same location (not much work going on in that office)

G'day btb...chat is now 85% footy related so I thought i would now participate from time to time. Yes I have been a regular viewer of the site.
Also the plight of B Grade footy in this league is getting a fair mention lately..just want to have my say on it when required.
Im a passionate Reserves player and are quite concerned with some rule changes of late ie 14 side..supplying own umpire..etc
As it is we only play 15min quarters with no time on which is a bit of a joke when the ball gets kicked over the fence...pretty amateurish I reckon..

hey thats not fair..just coz u squealed on me WT....

but that aside, i can vouch for steiger

[piesman]

Totally agree bish. Just waiting for a club to flaunt the new rule by playing only 14 or 15 without any real attempt to put together a full side. Hasn't happened yet but has the potential to severely disadvantage the club with depth. Will mean that fringe players from the stronger clubs may likely miss out on playing. This new rule is only in the trial stage and is to be reassessed after the first round of games eg Mortlock.

[westcoastpanther]

Or the blokes who don't want to train, just play an hour of B grade then get on the piss watching the real stuff, like me!!

[Justquietly]

I think 15 mins is OK, but it requires time on to deal with the 'over the fence boot'

[another grub]

time on rule is not OK... 12 mins in last qauter of GF 5points up and the opposition captain calls a player count. Game Over. Not on. Maybe time-on last half or something to curtail this.

Is stickcricket.com not working today Bish?

Not sure I understand that, AG. If a player count is called, wouldn't the clock stop, like it should?

exactly AG, time on in last half, or at the very least in the finals....bout time the League treated the reserves comp with a bit more respect. Will also bring in the fitness aspect into the game a bit more....

I agree Piesman, clubs should be encouraged to do the best they can to field a B Grade side. Our coach is on the phone constantly from Thursday night to Saturday morning trying to get a side together most weeks. Bostons should be commended for the efforts they made last year for doing their best to get a side onto the track.

The clock wouldn't stop if there was no time on.
