I'll legitimately ask him, I suspect it will destroy my entire days productivity though.

It's obviously caused by wind farms.

For decades 286 Military Road Semaphore Park was the office of Bert Lindop Real Estate but about the same time you started telling us about your beekeeing obsessed work colleague it has changed to Adelaide Beekeeping Supplies. Coincidence?

Poor bloke.

Does he have a penchant for wide collars?

Why can't he smile for the photo?

He doesn't look tough he just looks constipated

That's his Graham Cornes look where he looks like he's straining to push out the poo that killed Elvis.

The wide collars are to make the rest of the shirt look smaller

I think North Korea grossly overestimated their tourism potential with 'The Hotel of Doom'.

All star @AFL week? State of origin, longest kick, skills challenge and goal shoot out?

Would be a great concept, but the clowns at AFL house will never at least try this.

Boogie to Nola. Hope they miss the playoffs.

That's a normal shirt. Partland's an oompa-loompa. One of the fat ones

Can't believe Celtics didn't have a decent crack at him.

Came across this article from June 1919 in The Daily Herald while doing a bit of research on my great-grandfather - mentioned in the Port Adelaide v. Norwoods article - Horace Hoare, exceptionally good mark! Also mentioned in the B Grade writeup.

Looks like 'Ports' rather than 'Port' wasn't just a Port Adelaide thing.

Possibly unpopular opinion here but I don't think somebody less interested in AFL than everybody here is fit to be calling out AFL house for how they manage the game.

It's the clubs that don't want unnecessary sideshow competitions, not the league.

You'll have fun with Hoares if you're doing SA genealogy. IIRC the first criminal offence tried in South Australia was a Hoare who stole a side of bacon, and the judge's comments are a ripper, pretty much on the theme of: "****s sake mate, you're not a convict and you paid to come here and steal shit what is wrong with you, why am I here dealing with this petty shit, ****ing Port fans **** off"

I played footy with a Hoare in Darwin.

His nickname was "You big"
