I've got differing feelings about the GF.

I think the best match would be Geelong v Bulldogs, but I can't go past GWS v Sydney for the theatre of it.

In fairness I think he's a bit of a runner and might have been in the City to Bay Fun Run yesterday. Mind you why someone would put Fun and Run in the same sentence is beyond me.

Depends what gear the Karma bus was in that ran him over.


What I found when every one came in from left right and centre to pot me after Centrals dynasty ended was that after the initial first few hours of shock that its over, it really wasn't that distrastous and for the first time in 12 years I reflected and appreciated how lucky I was to be a part of that. Now whenever gf week comes around and the Dogs aren't in it some of the greatest memories, game day ones, pre game ones, after party ones, chimney ones just come flowing back and always wacks a smile on my face


difference is, the crows havent won anything of note for years, so there is nothing to put that smile on MW's face.

that and i dont remember you being that much of a spanker leading into any of the sanfl finals series centrals have been involved in.

I haven't been able to post up until now, what have I missed? :shock: :lol:

I give as much as I get so all good, bring it on! :twisted:

What can I say about Saturday night that hasn't been said already...Sydney were incredible, we were poo except for a couple of 5-10 minute patches. I think that is just about it.
Desperately need some polish in the midfield, way too many in and under handballers and our kickers were exposed to the pressure.
I'm not sure you can criticise the forwards too much, the supply was almost zero. Tex needs to learn to not turn his back on the play though, he's in a really bad habit of doing that.

Apologies if I don't respond to all the posts directed towards me, I don't have time ;)

My wife (who runs her own side business, if you want some cakes let me know) made some Eddie Betts cupcakes on the weekend.

Unfortunately that's about all I saw of him :(

Is this what Brian Taylor is referring to when goes on about 'foot candy'?

They go down nicely during Semi Final weekend, but they are pretty popular so they disappear fast. If you barrack for port they might give you the shits.

Quite like them during September, they are hard to find when the big games are on though so best stock up on them during the winter months.
