Oh f***, thats all on me, bloody hell :dunky:
i took the three quarter time score as the final score, i've been checking in between ward rounds so i might blame my patients i think. soooreeee!
excellent win by the Pies tbf, only been following the score (bloody work) but the absolute arse has fallen out of Sydney and they are fuckered :p top four hanging open like a whore's drawers for anyone who fancies winning a couple of their last three games
If the swannies choke up a top four slot having been aeons ahead of everyone else for the past four months, it wouldnt half be hilarious :LOL: i think its looking like Brisbane will be the prem favourites, with two home games in the finals and a fearsome record at the Gabba they've got one...
its a bit early for the trades rumour mill to be running, but Shai Bolton for two first rounders makes a lot of sense for both Fremantle and Richmond - Freo get a great 'icing on the cake' player at 25, small forward with a hell of a lot of run and a perfect Sonny Walters replacement, and the...
It'll be interesting to see what they do for a big FA cup tie at home to Blackburn or Bolton etc, someone who can take down 3,000 for a special occasion - whether Sussex police say nope, no chance, wont allow them in, or if they say two of your wally buses can go to the ground for three hours...
I've had one person come at me with a knife (of the standard kitchen variety) and she was a white female in her sixties, if we're going with demographics. (i worked on a hospital ward, i should clarify that here!) I legged it out of the room quick smart, shut the door and held it shut, and my...
Away fans are fine if they're from small northern/midlands clubs, but nobody big or from london aside from nice benign clubs.
No: Spurs, arsenal, chelsea, west ham, Palace, Man Utd, City perhaps, Liverpool, and occasional cup fixtures like Portsmouth, Millwall etc
Yes: pretty much everyone...
There's a fascinating softening of the religious boundaries in the northern counties, traditionally the Gaelic games have been played by the catholic population and the protestants tended towards football and rugby instead (Some apocryphal stories about young kids carrying hurleys being shot by...
Hawthorn are quietly putting together a very decent team, i think in 2-3 years they'll be right up there again. (annoying, they've been good far more than they've been rubbish in the 25-odd years i've been following the game, that's not how its meant to work in these days of equalisation!)
Yeah, i think the injuries and the season has got to the pies a bit - you can typically expect a bit of drop-off after winning a flag, but that wave of momentum they've been so brilliant at maintaining over the last two and a half seasons has finally petered out. Good things do come to an end...
Weirdly, i was at Germany 1-5 England in 2001. Now i'm no England fan at all, but my pal was intending on going to this match, and tacked on a few days in Amsterdam on the way - so when i heard of this holiday, Amsterdam followed by Munich, i was right aboard. It was a magnificent week away...
hmmm, bit disappointed with Essendon beating the pies this morning - not that i like the pies, i dont! its just that i dislike essendon more, and i've been predicting their downfall for aaaages and theyre still sticking around despite being utter frauds :LOL:
Oh yes, a cheeky little bit of sexy Freo action late morning, im absolutely there for it! Saw the last ten mins of the Freo/swannies match in my tent at glastonbury, early kickoffs are good for streaming from a cosy bed - and just about scraped a wonderful victory. Obvs the Swannies are the best...
My first glastonbury was 2005, and i rushed around like a madman ticking bands off - nowadays (the festival just gone was my tenth) ill line up 2-3 bands a day, and otherwise wander about and stop when i see something i like the look or sound of. Lots of cabaret and circus, lots of southeast...
Would love an Oilers win, just because Canada, innit? its been soooo bloody long since a canadian team won it, and if my own delightful canadiens arent going to, i'd like any other canadian team.
(apart from the maple leafs, obvs . . . )
The Essendon v Carlton game on sunday morning with a nice late kickoff (late for them, delightfully midmorning for us) will be my watch with Freo being on a bye week :thumbsup: Cannot stand Essendon at all, absolute bunch of pricks, and looking forward to their inevitable slide down the table...
