A small South Australian book distributor has just sent notice of this new title, due out in March.
It's a kids' book, about footy, by Mark and Jenny Williams. Anyone know anything about the authors???
If you live in or around Adelaide, you should have no problems getting it from your nearest bookshop. (For all I know, the Power shop might even be selling it.) If you're outside of SA, alert your bookshops now, as orders should be in by mid-January.
(If you're in outer east Melbourne, just contact me, and I'll be happy to save a copy for you. I'll have lots of copies in stock -- all my predominantly Hawthorn and Collingwood customers will be laughing at me -- again.)

IIRC, Marcus is the name of his eldest son.
If he knows how to win a flag then why the hell isnt he telling Dad how to do it?

Isn't that the team Choco coaches?
Well, its a night flag, so Choco would be fine with that one.
(might as well get all the obvious taunts out before the opposition drop by)

Oh, jeez, you're right. The main board is going to have a big day out on this one when the book launches.

RE the main board opposition supporters: Vultures, the lot of them.
RE Chocco coaching Marcus to a flag, it makes you wonder what he's doing with the little boys that he isnt doing with the big boys.

1. Then my dear, you need to learn how to gather your spite and use it as a weapon. Trust me it's fun.
2. Letting them play their natural game? And I agree with Beffrey............the connotations are alarming.

1. I'm not a spiteful person, but I'll try. :)
2. Michael Jackson anyone? :o Sorry Chocco.
