A few things and shared them.

Yep, you can guarantee some pillock cleaning out your favourite dish before it gets to you and you end up with a big stack of ginger chicken.

Just on 6pm you'd be the first orders of the night and most of these would be prepped, especially the ribs. The chicken, squid, beef and rice would take 5 minutes with prep done and nobody else in the restaurant.

But you ate last nights left overs. ;)

Was probably 20 others in the restaurant when we arrived

It's possible, I've spent a bit of time working in a kitchen recently and it's amazing how quick a good chef can get good meals out.
You should be able to tell from the quality pretty easily though.

Sounds like BBQ City. Food comes out quick but it is ******* beautiful. My favourite restaurant in Adelaide.
So you've seen everything have you?
Yep
Have you ever seen a man eat his own head?
No
Well you haven't seen everything then have you.

The career of retiring Penrith Panther Peter Wallace. Wallace has played 240 games for Penrith > Brisbane > Penrith being only one of 25 to have played 100 games for 2 clubs. We talk about AFL players battling on through injuries across their career, well....

2008 ruptured a testicle in the opening minutes of an Origin game, played on through the 80 minutes.

2017 finals series ( 2 games ) with 3 broken ribs, nobody at the club knew of the injury, only his personal doctor.

4 knee reconstructions. 2 shoulder reconstructions.

1 of the ACL injuries was suffered before half time of a match where Penrith had already lost two players to injury. He played out the game. But that, in his terms, is nothing.

One of his knee reconstructions came after it was discovered during an MRI on his groin that he had a torn his ACL. As it turns out the ACL had been torn off 10 months earlier in the previous season. So he'd played several games, a preseason and played several more in the new season before it was discovered.

Tough. As. Nails.

South Australia will put its pride on display when it competes in the 2018 AFL National Inclusion Carnival in Tasmania from June 18 to 24.

To be coached by Don Miranda for the third successive year, the Croweaters have been training at West Adelaide’s City Mazda Stadium for the past month as they look to win their first title in Launceston.

Now an annual event, the AFL National Inclusion Carnival is for people with an intellectual disability.

Last year’s captain – Jesse Goodman – will again skipper the side which will also include his twin brother Luke.

As many as six players in the 15-man squad have represented SA in another sport, the team presented with its guernseys at the home of the Bloods this week.

Competition against rival states Victoria Metro, Victoria Country, NSW/ACT, WA, Queensland and Northern Territory will begin on Tuesday June 19 with a series of matches to determine the positions for Pool A and Pool B.

Several games will be held at AFL venue UTAS Stadium, with the pool matches played from Wednesday June 20 until Friday June 22.

The top two teams in each pool will contest the Grand Final on Saturday June 23 at UTAS Stadium as a curtain raiser to the AFL match between Hawthorn and Gold Coast.

An All-Australian team will be selected -with input from the coaches – at the conclusion of the carnival.

Match Schedule – SA time

Tuesday June 19

8.30am – SA v WA

9.45 am – Tas v SA

10.35am – SA v NSW/ACT

11.25am – SA v NT

12.15pm – SA v Qld

12.40pm – SA v Vic Country

1.30pm – SA v Vic Metro

Wednesday June 20 to Friday June 22

To be confirmed

Buying my MND beanie of Neale Daniher’s daughter. Had a brief chat with her and literally got a lump in my throat, absolutely amazing woman so strong and so driven, her passion was unbelievable I nearly broke down the way she spoke so open and so candid, explained how much the week and day actually took out of Neale. I guess that’s the ugly side we don’t see which in my opinion makes the bloke even more remarkable, She also happily stood for a photo handing me the beanie

Absolutely amazing family.

Well played Daniher’s, well played.
you've gota keep on keep'n on .........
