    2026 Membership Thread

    Mine was only posted yesterday, and won't get to me until probably next Tuesday. Of course coming into next year I'll have to ring the club to make sure I only have 1 Women's Membership (I pay for 2 for some reason and haven't fixed that)

    National SevenWest (Ch7) & SCA (Triple M) to merge

    Unless they go totally state based calling they've just about maxed out the cross-promotion talent element. Between Brayshaw, Taylor, Nicholson, Thomas, McCarthy, Ryan Daniels, Xavier Ellis, Xander McGuire (been doing summer breakfast in Melbourne with McCarthy), N.Riewoldt, Molloy.....

    And a missed Hail Mary at that, although with the new entry requirements this could well be a blessing in disguise. Even half considered Budapest as an option but the flights were a bit "What the". If you thought Melbourne was insane, Gold Coast was 300 times worse. I managed to snag a full...

    Independent report - top 100 global rankings of sport cities

    They think more about the international events that are on the Coast (Marathon, Triathlons) than domestic events, which to me makes the Sydney ranking above Melbourne (much less the Brisbane ranking which sounds like forecasting rather than surveying for the now) strange. Yes Sydney now has one...

    That was the Knicks who lost to the Spurs in the finals in 5 games (Spurs were #1 in the West)

    Travel Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore

    Given that I made the "mistake" of staying at a place in Kajang (about a 40 minute train ride out of town) and hearing about how KL comes alive at night I'd like to at least go again to experience this,. and maybe do the Petronas Towers having only been able to do the KL Tower.

    This is where finishing for the 10th time this year and making the Spartans cut comes in very handy (they'll give a link for those who've got to 7). It also means the insurance option of entering the Chicago ballot remains a Hail Mary at best.

    Capricornia league

    So we reach another year, and another day of Yeppoon looking to add to their premiership streak. Only lost one game in the Senior Men's comp, and that day BITS had a little help from some upstart youngster, think they referred to him as Dane S.....or was it D.Swan? Anyway the summary and preview...

    Time was ordinary at best having cooked myself over the undulations of the first 15km and having blisters on both feet, but the hardware is secure and I did make the flight home just in time

    Wildcard weekend - yes or no

    As I've stated across social media platforms this already exists, this weekend the games are being played in Sydney and Perth hosted by the teams finishing 5&6 on the ladder

    Biggest wins and worst losses you seen your team in?

    At AFL Level BIGGEST: Discounting the 2016 Grand Final, in terms of margin it was Good Friday 2021, the Josh Bruce game. Fortunate to be let into the state given I was based in Regional Qld rather than the Brisbane area in the era that shall never be spoken of again. WORST LOSS: 2011 in Perth...

    Radio Triple M Footy

    Bit late to the party I guess but......I get MMM wanting to remotely call games from Alice Springs with a local boundary rider, but does anyone seriously believe "Pauly Tresize" was a writer for the Centralian Advocate (which does exist) and doing boundary at Traeger Park? Nice try Daisy.......

    Your First Game

    First I remember attending, Round 18 1989, Footscray vs Essendon at the Kennel. Low scoring played in a bog and windy conditions. Based at the Geelong Road End which wasn't as landscaped as it is now (few rows of concrete terraces, then a gravel mound where if the crowd was low enough some slid...

    The "other" Anzac Day matches 1995 - 2025

    The 2003 other game (Swans vs Dees) was the only regular season FNF game covered by Channel 10 in their era (9 covered Pies vs Bombers), and was an attempt to make it a regular alternative event to watch post the main fare next door in Sydney (Roosters vs Dragons NRL) much like the Storm have...

    I know there's been a lot of talk about telecast teams for Thursday and Friday Night teams in the media lately, yet for a guy like myself it won't really matter much at all. In between work, travel, umpiring and playing commitments there won't be too many Thursday or Friday night games that I'll...

    QFA Div 2 North

    I'm betting next week, they generally only do a couple per week statewide and this week was Townsville and Capricornia's turn.

    Suspect a few absences from training nights when they clash but specialists (as opposed to line coaches) generally don't do too many match days.

    Just under 1000 (I've done beyond 1200 in about 2019 as my high mark), obviously going to do more this year and with Sydney officially on the agenda as of today (and the Comrades organisers kindly giving runners an extra 10 minutes to qualify meaning sub 5:00 is good enough) it's time to knuckle...

    Query When did the 50m arc come in and why?

    Round 9 would have been about the time the midweek Cup was ending wasn't it? Just thinking the theory was they could introduce it afterwards thinking it wasn't in the rulebook for the AFC (who in theory ran the midweek cup) and save Waverley the bother of marking the line for their comp on a...

    Cazaly's Stadium

    Problem is without a regular tenant at a state or national league level (Barlow Park is being redeveloped with the athletics track remaining for a post Olympic legacy and the Northern Pride Qld Cup Rugby League team the regular tenant) how could they justify the facility being permanent? There's...

    To tie up a loose end, Singapore was unbelievably slow but I couldn't run any of the last 11km partially because of the climatic conditions (it was the only day in my week in Malaysia/Singapore that the Sun was out, doesn't mean it wasn't hot and humid, but the sun increased the road temperature...
