            On topic, I really have gravy concerns about our chances against North this week. We have an awful tendency to shank our kicks, and Mumford really needs an effective chop out. Seaby has what it takes to reach the baa set by Pyke, while Curry could also work, but I get the feeling he'd get roasted; he's just not strong enough. We have a horrible tendency to flock around the ball and just watch sheepishly as an opponent wins the clearance, and so often when we've got the ball we could do with a good shepherd. And to be honest, Goodes looks like his game-breaking ability has faded a bit with age. He's starting to look like the footballing equivalent of mutton dressed up as.... well, you know.

              We could always put him out to stud, if anyone wanted a piece of used Goodes.

                Who will hogget all the stats information instead?

                He's a bit of a dag but wether we allow him to stay should not be an issue as he always produces the golden fleece with the ressies reports.

                  We've just had a potentially season defining loss, there's superficial talk amongst the coaching staff and players of how to regain the passion and pride yet the morning after they are laughing it up with a bizarre trivia comp. And now the die hard fans are joking around when we should be calling for the coach to be sacked, or at least for him to be giving more rookies a run instead of those has-beens still running around on 2005 premiership credits.

                  It just makes me maaaad.

                    Who's running around on 2005 Premiership credits?

                    And he has played 4 debutants in the first 8 games, with another one (Johnston) looking likely in the 9th.

                      I agree with you completely.

                      Send Horse to the knackery I say. Those that shout neigh should be glued to their computer chairs or they can trot off elsewhere.

                      We've got a team which is a few meat cuts short of a casserole. We should be giving the young rissoles, I mean rookies more of a go. Horse has only played four this year which is not good enough I say. With all the other players we have who have played less than 50 games they need support from debutants to guide them with their inspiration.

                      Can we trade Goodes to GWS and bring in someone with a more interesting rhyming name?

                      Did I tell you I picked 8 from 8 on last weekend's tipping?

                        I'm Jack of all these comments. We will come up with Goodes this week. I will be sitting in front of the TV with my Mummy and drink some beers from the Malceski. We'll make some cheese and Bevan sandwiches which are so nice we'll probably want Moore. Our friends will be also coming over to out place on Dennis Lane to watch. In celebration of victory we'll take everyone out to Seaby in our Johnson outboard which sometimes breaks down which means we'll be all Rohan back to Shaw to get home. It's not a big boat so some of us have to Crouch down to fit but some won't Playfair and take Moore room than needed. One time someone flipped the Bird and there was trouble. Once back home to our White house on Dennis Lane I'll grab the spare key from under the welcome Mattner hoping to avoid the little Spider that lives there. It's a nice house especially in the Sumner months because in the winter it does get cold and we have to wear our Parkers and cook a nice hot Currie to keep warm.
