There's an old school tune right there! Loved that when I was younger.
Went and saw Ben Ottewell and Ian Ball (from Gomez) the other night and they mentioned that Def Leppard had a new album out. Wonders will never cease!

I used to go camping at Tanjil Bren back in the day. Noojee a fair bit too. Beautiful country.

The nooj is great, lovely spot on the river, know the country along upper latrobe river pretty well. bren and icy creek can get a bit cool as your starting to get a bit high being on the approach to the baw baw plateu.

Quite often used to go out to the Noojee pub for a feed a few beers and 20c games of pool. Sometimes turned messy and we'd be eating dinner there as well with someones girlfriend doing a horror run to pick us up.

Is the T-Rex still out the front or long gone now? Must be 20 odd years since I've been there...

We used to stay at a cabin in Tanjil. Bloody freezing most of the time but nothing a roaring fire wouldn't fix.

100%
Same for me. I was the first one in my family to go to uni so i never knew. But after i got my degree i worked as much as i could during post grad. Only trade off was i had no life for 6 years.

The markets were 'up only' for so long. From a financial perspective Covid was huge win. Quantitative easing and the economy being propped up was a given. Plus it dragged on for so long. I remember sitting at my desk when they declared it a global pandemic and watching bitcoin melt along with everything else and thinking "duck this I'm throwing my savings in" (blood in the streets etc.). I doubt we'll have a clear window like that for a long time. Def not in the next couple of years anyway with inflation like it is.

HECS went up 3% yesterday

nahh that old dinosaur is long gone, i think it was originally made of fern tree stumps before the fire and was replaced by a concrete replica, the whole nooj pub had been pretty well rebuilt now, great out the back, although the clientele is a bit redneck, my only gripe is they still have a CUB exclusivity agreement which means CUB draft, VB or dry :-(

Imagine thinking this is a good idea.

It's looking good [emoji106]

I loved the way they kept the pool table at 20c when every table in the state at the time was $1.

I know what you mean about the locals, they never liked us outsiders doing them on their own table either, but we were young enough not to care and always 'ready'

The bad is never as bad as it seems just like the good is never as good as it seems, you will look back some time and it will be just another non event.

The dream is never over. Plenty of ways to skin a cat.

How much leadership training do the players actually get as part of their job?
Seems like a huge area of need and something that would be implemented when they become part of the Leadership Group but it doesn't seem to be working.
Strong leadership on field seems to be one of the major differences between North and other teams at a similar level of performance.
Anyone got info on this?

Just remember - there is always a plan B. Don’t stress or panic. Look at the options when you know whats happening.

I want to see if I can possibly re do it but other than that I can’t be ****ed anymore lol

Just go talk to the people running the course.

The worst that can happen is you are still where you are now.
