I would have loved to but I start training for a new job on Thursday morning :(
That's terrible timing . I am kinder hoping I can find someone who wants to go with me .

Found someone to go with , just hope the rain holds off tomorrow. It's pissing down at the moment here . I know going all the way to Seaford is going to hurt my back but it's most likely the last time we will train there unless a miracle happens so I would like to at least see the place and get some photos and hopefully some autographs in some of my Saints books . What are the chances of getting Roo to sign something, I imagine he will be surrounded by fans the whole time lol.

I will try get some photos of players to put on the players board if I can . It really depends on the weather I guess .

Going with dct66 , should be fun . If you want a photo of your favourite player let me know tonight and I will try . Who ever I get I will put up on the player profile sites anyway . Going to take The Point of it All to get signed . I would take the others but they are just too heavy to carry .

I had The Point of it All when it came out but I lent it to a family member who lent it to someone else and I never got it back . Was so pissed because it sold out . But picked up a second hand copy on eBay for $50 , I couldn't believe it because I had seen it going for over $200 previously on eBay .

What's the story for the end of the season , do we have a drinks day at a pub somewhere to meet up with people from this site ? Is anyone interested in doing something like that . Would be nice to put faces to the names . And to talk about the good and bad things from the season . Also by getting to know each other maybe we won't have as many fights next season , well maybe anyway , lol. I wasn't around last season so is it something people are interested in ?

There's a good bar with reasonable food just up the road. Let's make it happen!

There is ancient rule that clearly states that the only time we can meet and reveal our true identity to each is after we win a flag.

To do otherwise is to mess with the universe and cause us to lose our super powers of team selection, coaching and list management.

You done mixed up you virtual space with the real world.

Half of us are bored Russian teenagers pretending to be middle-aged AFL fans. I know for a fact Joffaboy is a 13 year old boy living with his uncle in a village near the Georgian border. Plugger66 is posting from juvenile prison in St Petersburg. He's top dog, that's how he gets to hog the computer. A lot of his fellow inmates are looking over his shoulder pissing themselves and egging him on.

Joffa is that old man up the street that yells at you when your dog takes a dump on his lawn.

Not sure about a end of season meet n greet.
Once you all meet up you start looking around the pub staring at everybody and thinking to yourself
Oh wow hes bald.
Geez i didnt realize he was sooo old.
Oh ive been arguing with him and hes just a kid.
Crikey your an ugly bastard .
Hmmmm i think your too old for an earing you flog.
Oh shit your a woman! i probably shouldnt have made so many dick jokes .
Ha Ha Keg on Legs really does look like a Keg on Legs.
Hang on!! You look like that bloke i saw walking out of the Blue Oyster Bar.

Then all the mystery and intrigue of talking to weird strangers online is gone .
No thanks.

Is this ancient rule, you speak of, written in the same book Waldy was blowing the dust off the other night?
