Cheapest entry to a ground in Sweet for the best show going round.

Delons do it again!

If that were true he’d have been named in a key position post in last season’s All SFA team.

I should've been in the forward pocket. No idea how I ended up at half forward

 

[Wosh]

That’s the only way you’ll become as hot as me xxxx

Morning/evening sossage

Morning/afternoon Wosh

It's 4:30pm but it seems like it's morning because I slept until 3pm. That trip away was crazy busy with irregular hours and then I didn't get home until around 2am last night.

 

[Bonz]

Bonz isn't it just fascinating that we're already up to Round 2?

The Sweet FA just goes at a mile a minute.

It's beautiful, the SFA goes a week at a time, it's almost perfectly in line with the rest of the sporting landscape!

Why arn’t you at the Olympics?

 

[Bonz]

Yes! It is much better to feed them frozen grapes or the toes of your enemies.

Noted for the frozen grapes! I will get some when it gets to spring (unlike ducks).

For the toes of my enemies, is it better they are fresh or frozen?

Thank you Grav

The cost of living crisis has even hit us.

 

[DragoDelph]

Always welcome a hug from you mogs But a happy hug coz I’m proud of myself!
I’m breaking an actual caffeine/sugar addiction and it aint easy, I was drinking 4 - 5 Dare iced coffees a day which equates to over 2 litres Not to mention about $100 a week.
I stopped smoking many years ago the same way just bang, threw them away and told myself as of today I am NOT a smoker.




One day I’ll do the same with the Sweet FA just BANG done…no more!

Go wish!

Here’s tiny Reba!

Because that's what you get if you multiply six by nine

And minus 12.

 

[Gralin]

I tell you it's great to see Tarks back at his beloved Demons posting up a storm

Awwww I’ve missed your pupper!

The Dragons not so much, but your pupper

It's like he never left.

 

[DragoDelph]

Awwww I’ve missed your pupper!

The Dragons not so much, but your pupper

She’s still a sook.

Why arn’t you at the Olympics?

Didn't qualify, just wasn't good enough (no Australians did sadly).

Proud of my efforts though, represented Australia in both individuals and teams at a world cup, individuals at a Grand Prix, participated an Olympic qualifying campaign, medaled for Australia at Oceanics.

Took a while to be able to sit back and be proud of my efforts though, falling short hurts a fair bit mentally, especially after training 16-20 hours a week for so long.

[Bonz]

And a very good morning to my fabulous Buller comrades and hello Dragons!

To answer your question Bonz, because Douglas Adams made it so. Here's another of his great writings; I am so cool, you could keep a side of beef in me for a week. I'm so hip I have difficulty seeing over my pelvis.

Whatever you do today do it with groove (like Zaphod Beeblebrox).

"I'm so hip I am having difficulty seeing over my pelvis"

That single line there deserves a reward!

 

[DragoDelph]

Going to look for a toy poodle boy for her next year before getting her fixed.

Just fyi

Do you still fence casually/locally? Or gave it up completely?

 

[Bonz]

Yes, I regularly eat bread and I have never been dismissed for a duck.

I think this has less to do with your love of bread and more to do with your innate talent for cricket (or the possibility you have never played cricket before).

Shocked that a team so steeped in history would just rebrand a home stadium like this:

Know the Flamethrowing Chickens are disappointed in you.

That was my idea. Now that I'm playing at full forward I thought the ball would get to me a lot quicker on a smaller ground so we've reduced the size significantly and renamed it to reflect the new size.

I came up aith the new name as well. Others wanted to call it the The Sonw Ten Cent Piece but I thought The Snow Dime was much better.

That particular scene in the lobby of the Megadodo Publications (home of the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy) is absolutely brilliant. I love it.

Yes. I wanted to call it the Snow Shilling, but was overruled.
