Im surprised Costco haven't taken over the empty Masters building next to Collonades down South, seems perfect for them.

Ive been there once and thought it was OK, the selling of coffin's was a bit off putting though

Scum bag and drain on society Neil Archer and his lump of excrement mother Margaret aren't getting thrown in the river while holding some rocks for their murder of Jody Myers.

Scum, absolute scum.

@JK is away on a cruise at the moment. He asked me if I could do his punters club at our local pub for the two weeks while he's away. Sure, no problems. ( 10 races MR/SR 6,7,8 and AR/BR 6,7 - 3,2,1 - Max 30 points ).

So Friday night I pick mine out, Saturday morning pick his out. Get to the pub and I've got a couple of scratchings, make the changes and put them both in.

JK - 19 points.
Boon - 15 points.

JK wins the day and takes home $180.

$5 per week at the Hendon. Winner takes home 75% of the pool 2nd 25% of the pool. ( or split it if two are even etc ).

Used to be much bigger, some weeks 1st place was taking home $250+ a year or two ago.

Awesome system, we had one a few years ago and at it's peak it was good fun.

It's good value, you've got an interest in 10 races for the afternoon ( well, the first 3 or 4 anyway, if you haven't got 6-8 points in the 1st 4 races it's often too little too late. ) for $5 and you only need to jag it once a year or so for it to pay for itself.

They have the same at the Halfway Hotel every Saturday. Between that and $4 pints all day Friday the place rocks early weekends.
Horses bore the bejesus out of me but it was cool seeing how happy the winner was last week.

The Footy Show. 5 mins in and switched off. Absolute crap STILL

It's been pure unadulterated pus and swill for a decade.

First 10 mins were as bad tv I've seen

Agree 100% but I always get sucked in and think I'll give it one more chance and the same thing happens every year. I switch off after 5 minutes. Not again.

And then Fevola came on and said “hold my beer’. Woeful

Can’t wait for 360 to come back

Yep. The promo of Gillon McLachlan doing his Robbo impersonation is great.

Dave from Alberton getting way too much love from Penbo on 5AA

Didn’t even bother. Watched athletics instead.

Wow. So the Footy Show has gotten that bad.

Fishing. I love it. I’m just really bad at it. Tangled lines, snags everywhere and lost bait are as much guaranteed as walking away fishless is grr
