[BlueGum]

Whats that say in English ?

The swear filter works

 

[Accidental genius]

All this sport stuff on telly and the wife is watching a movie ffs .

I agreed to going out to movies with family...I’m outside waiting for the movie to finish...I think it’s called ocean 8? I tried to sit and watch but just couldn’t....

 

[Dadda Dave]

Last years runners up have just kicked a rugby score ! Up to 30 now 25mins into the last .

 

[The old campaigner]

Over to the rugby now, see if I can get someone up for a win today.

 

[The old campaigner]

No to late. Can’t take a trick.

 

[Neese]

Well done Socceroos

 

[The old campaigner]

Jacobs kicked half of the Camry’s goals.

 

[Kramer1]

Given there were half a dozen articles questioning Bolts today it must be about to get very noisy for Pyke.

 

[Benaly28]

We’re bad but crows are awful.The only good thing to come out of today was them losing and having a look at Lindsay Foxes collectable cars in the car park near Etihad.Bonus.

 

[Salt Lake Cities]

Crows are broken. Dogs are broken. Back to back 2nd rounders at this rate - picks 23 & 24.

Don Pyke looks like he’s tried to get too clever and it’s ruined them. That and injuries.

 

[The old campaigner]

We’ve been done by France and Ireland today, let’s see how we go against the Poms now.

 

[No1Suspect]

Yep crows take the heat off us. . Slightly.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Don’t get your hopes up, Jason Roy is having his bi-annual blinder.

 

[Dadda Dave]

The ole knuckle ball has come into play

 

[Navara79]

At least we aren't Adelaide.....

 

[The old campaigner]

Does anyone remember young Stanlakes old man having a run at the Bulldogs back in the day?

Nope

 

[Love the Drake]

Yep. After witnessing today first hand my season is now down to barracking for teams playing Adelaide and western bullies. We already have pick 1 stitched up. 23 & 34 would be icing on the cake..

 

[The old campaigner]

Nope

Touted as a cross between Quinlan and Templeton, played one game in 1981.
The doggies version of Steven Oliver.

Must admit I don't remember him, but as per The Encyclopedia of AFL Footballers: 1 game, 0 goals, 189cm (Billy must have got his height from somewhere else), 87kg, recruited from Lavington. I note that Billy was born in Hervey Bay & played junior football for the Hervey Bay Bombers (Boo!!!). Family subsequently moved to the Gold Coast & Billy attended The Southport School (Posh bugger).

Thus ends tonight's history lesson.

 

[The_Wookie]

Fun fact: Chris Judd and Dennis Armfield both came to Carlton in the same draft - both finished with 145 games in the Navy Blue.

 

[Wickzki]

Do not be surprised if the second half by the Suns happens in other games this year.

There was a rumor going around earlier in the week that for the AFL to give the Suns a first round priority pick they'd need to lose out. This way they could point to Gold Coast winning 3 of their first 5 and then not winning another game for the rest of the year.

If the Saints win another game they'll finish above them. Then they just need Carlton and Brisbane to snag a couple of wins. Both teams play the Suns so there's half of their job done.

 

[Jabba73]

Cheese eating surrrender monkeys rancing all over the field.

Rolled that one out last night, had to explain to Mrs Jabba and Jabba jnr what it meant.

Found a clip of Groundskeeper Willie on YouTube and we all had a good laugh

[BrianSetzer]

Pretty depressing when you look forward to watching other teams play more than your own. Today's game should be good.
