Congratulations by the way to Old Carey and bad luck to Rupo. Wish I could've been there today

Will there be a gathering of all the "D Grade: Give me something" faithful? I'm keen if others are...

My predictions for Prahran B&F: 1. H. Hodgson; 2. L. Northway; 3. D. James; 4. M.Scicluna

CMCK, Old aged pensioners? i.e.- Walford, Scicluna, Pitts and Beven?!

DG, I thought Geeves would eat that sort of research up for breakfast... I have often wondered myself about that one. I thought it was 'here here', meaning 'agreement is coming from over here', but I found the following on www.dictionary.com: Idiom: hear, hear Used to express approval...

CMCK, Who are the OAPs? You've been in good form over the last couple of days- definitely deserving of votes. Although I doubt whether the Geez will win the B&F.

Can't Mark Can't Kick, Who will win Prahran's B&F? You've been a bit quiet lately, as has the legendary Midas....

I agree Kinbrown. Old Carey's guns have been given plenty of air time on this thread, whereas I think Rupo's good players fly under the radar a bit more. For example, I am another example of someone who was very impressed with Brennan. He is a very good player but, as far as I can remember, he...

DG Man, Will be looking out for you at the Junction today. Any tips on your appearance?

Prahran are definitely getting a new coach for 2007, with Leigh Stafford stepping down as playing coach after pulling off a miracle in D1 section this year...

Can I please have $2.50 for OGs to beat OC this week? Don't have much cash to play with but am pretty confident of securing myself enough cash for a hot dog after the game!

I agree that White for OGs will be pretty important. He is a class act and can play tall. I'm looking forward to what will be an exciting contest at the Junction! I'll be looking around trying to spot DG Man, Geeves, and any others on the thread...

Re: OGs v OC, The Junction is a very large ground for OGs and I think they will go straight through. They are very good at moving the ball around and delivering long to what is a potent and diverse forward line. If Parton is in fact injured then such a result will be even more likely. I haven't...

Here come Prahran boys, here come the Blues! We won't be beaten, we hate to lose! We will be there, one and all. The bigger they are, the harder they fall! Whether the odds be great or be small, gallant Prahran will win overall. You will hear the crowd al roaring, come on the mighty Blues...

Hey Mossrocket, why Unkles as your ruck option for team of year? He's a handy player, but there are plenty of others who I think deserve to go ahead of him based on form and ability... Ballard's overall form would have to make him favourite. He's been out for last few weeks. Anyone know what...

If we ignore games not played in the first half of season, which is obviously an issue in itself, I can't imagine that there are many full backs in the comp who have been beaten less than Scicluna this year. I've seen every game he has played. Defensively, he has been extremely solid, having...

Kingbrown, Are you saying that only 1/2 dozen OGs players hung around after game for a drink? They had only one or two hang around when they were beaten by Two Blues a few weeks ago. It's **** poor really. What about the results though this weekend! Massive victory by Rupo, and win by Two...

I know it's been said many times before, but the Quill is genuinely a fool. Some of his comments in this week's column demonstrate that he does all but the absolute minimum of research. He just throws names around to make it seem like he knows what he's on about. This week he's asking us to...

Kingbrown, Did the Herald Sun mention that the fees also include a full complementary RM Williams kit and Driazabone?! I felt like I was invading a country club last time I went to Como to pull on the boots. Looking forward to this bombshell that Midas has revealed is in the air and ready to...

Wise called before tribunal this week. Anyone know about this?

Hey Kingbrown, Who's "Furfy's the ruckman"?! Anyone who was at the Carey v OGs game- what was the go? I thought OGs would get up, but anyone got ideas on how the game unfolded? And anyone who was at the Yarra v Prahran game, were there any fireworks as predicted? Did any of the players from...

Hey OldMelburnian, Not sure if you've revealed your identity or not on this thread, but what's the go? Have you played for Old melburnian's in the past? Which team, if any, are you following in D1 section?

Kibe, Are you foxing or are you genuinely saying that Leos will have an ordinary side out there on Saturday due to injuries? Who is injured?

Therry do a good hot dog from what I remember. It's all in the roll if you ask me- crispy on outside but not too crispy, and then nice and fluffy on the inside. Not sure who does best chips or salad sandwiches though. Rupo's aren't bad from memory.

Archangel, Great post indeed. Far from tipping the obvious results based on ladder position, as our friend the Qwill tends to do, you've pulled out some unconventional but very legitimate tips. It's a big call to tip Banyule over OMs, but OMs do travel very poorly and Banyule have a lot more...

Hey Toohas, Who else was good for Yarra and Leos respectively? Ballard or Buckle good for Leos? Must have been a nail-biter.

Hey Bullant10, Did Mentone have any of the blokes they occasionally get from Sandringham?

Midas, Love your work. Good post again. I think your comments are spot on in a lot of ways. Although Old Geelong can be made to look ordinary if enough pressure is applied around the ball, I think it will be difficult to apply sufficient pressure on a ground as big as that at Box Hill. Their...

Nice work Midas. With the cash saved I'd go a few hotdogs over a teaspoon of fish eggs anyday though... Some Moet might be good to wash it down with though. What a big weekend of D1 footy is coming up!

I know we don't want to go off on a red herring, but Fitzroy Reds were not untouchable last year. I believe BT went down by 1 point to them and Prahran beat them during home and away season. They were very good though. DG Man, are you really the Qwill?
