If you haven't had a Stone Hut pie then your life hasn't been fulfilled.

In my opinion it's the best pie I've had, we stop every year there on the way to Quorn.

Ginnivan gets his premiership. Collingwood sell high after upgrading to Schultz. Ginnivan gets massive deal. Wins.

Our nag Splish Splash races in R1 Balak today. $4 shot. Worth a look for sure.

For those betting at Balaklava tomorrow - The @RJollyRacing stable has a 23% Winning Strike rate at the track over the past 12 months & a 43% Place Strike Rate. They have 5 runners in tomorrow that are all genuine winning chances.

Soldo ( as noted ), Sweet and BZK.

Ratugolea might get walked to PSD.

Excellent question.

You're not building for a tilt at the flag in 2024 though, with picks 10, 14 and 20 on top of the *ahem* growth of the likes of Soligo, Thilthorpe, Pedlar, Michalanney, Worrall etc you're building for a tilt in 2026 and beyond.

Our strategy is about keeping the window open for as long as we can, yours is about opening it up.

The video doing the rounds offers some evidence, the rest is conjecture as to why Ginnivan left.

The Oliver rumors surrounding a bloke fighting some demons ( no pun ) aren't worth repeating.

Should make it mandatory during a license driving test to go past it and if you drive on it, immediate fail.

If you drive on it in a test you should be exterminated.

This "A grader" stuff. Funny shit.

I'd not make any fanfare about it myself. Just let him know you're there for him, that's what he needs.

If he has a jar or two later and mentions it then you could perhaps offer up a happy birthday too him.

Maybe tell him when he's ready you've got something for him.

Thoughts with you mate, tough day indeed.

2 and a half.

Thursday, mild. Friday, solid. Saturday pub at lunch, AFLW in the afternoon, Lighthouse Beerfest in the evening, Korked as it got late, Commercial as it got later, Palais as it got silly, then mild case of death.

anyone know of a good place to get pool furniture? after some sun lounges, but not a lot out there, and from what I have seen it will rust within a week.
Happy to spend enough to get quality, but not a stupid amount.

Amart have mostly aluminium gear, we got a lounge from them 3 years ago and it's all in good order still.

Anyone a regular Drakes shopper?

A mate of mine in the US is a mad Hot Wheels collector and they have a promo on at the moment, I'd be keen to get any of them if possible.

Oh mate, there's 5 in Series two that he'd love.

That is fantastic mate, PM sent, thank you.

Morning all,

Last year was quite onerous by way of placing bets and we’ve been unable to secure any bonus cash ( at this stage ) so we have $1200 to play with.

We thought long and hard about how to go about this and we’ve decided to run with a Cup Day bonanza. If anyone would like to join the conversation regarding how we set it up as a group we’re open to suggestions.

After a lengthy process of establishing I am no good at maths we arrived at this :

Lightning McQueen, Bum Crack, Spargo, Pat Pirate, MT79, Corona and Brodlach 1 – You will be picking the Early Quaddie. 1 pick in each leg 7 x 7 x 7 x 7 = $2401 – 10% = $240

Picks must be in by 9am Tuesday

Daisy 1, Shano Mac, JK, Jimmy041, Gadj 1, Mickey and Bertie Beatle – You will be picking the quaddie. 1 pick in each leg 7 x 7 x 7 x 7 = $2401 – 10% = $240

Picks must be in by 10am Tuesday

The below players have $25 as follows :

Brod 2 – Race 1
JK2 – Race 2
Hellboy Coopers – Race 3
Gadj 2 – Race 4
Dutchy – Race 5
LM Jnr – Race 6
Daisy 2 – Race 7
Carey – Race 8
UK Fan – Race 9
Booney – Race 10

10 x 250 = 250

250 + 240 + 240 = 730

1200 – 730 = $470

Everyone picks one runner in the Cup we will then

$270 on the First 4 numbers ( We will no doubt have double ups )
$200 on the trifecta numbers ( As above )

Dutchy will post BSB and Account details tomorrow. Payment to be made by COB tomorrow please.

Enter "PAID" in here.

While she deserves the highest honor I think the GF BOG is the one that it should be.

The league MVP/Brownlow probably needs more time to have a name on it, the GF BOG could happen right away though. IMO.

All the while getting the weekend washing cycle complete, even finished off the pool start up ready for the week ahead.

Some weekends nothing is great, other weekends when you go non stop are just as good, had a ripper.

You have $50 to play with each. 9 x 50 = $450

480 + 819 + 450 = 1749

1938 - 1749 = $189

Booney and DMc Jnr have $45 each to play with as they see fit.

The Western Bulldogs have been ordered to pay a child sex abuse victim $5.9 million in damages after the Supreme Court found the club was negligent in protecting him from harm.

Adam Kneale sought damages from the abuse he received from former fundraising committee member Graeme Hobbs, from age 11, occurring in the club’s offices, board room, staff toilets, change rooms and club stand, as well as on a cheer squad bus travelling to and from Sydney.

Kneale reported Hobbs to police in 1993, when he was 21, and both Hobbs and another man were jailed.

While the Bulldogs denied knowing about the abuse, a jury found the club was liable, awarding $5,943,151 in damages including $3.35m for pain and suffering, $2.6m for lost earnings, plus medical expenses.

It is the largest sum awarded to an abuse survivor in Australia and the first successful case against an AFL club.

Friday, 37°, good tides, boat ready to go and the day off.

Friday, 37°, pool is ready to go, out in the boat then home into the pool.

Friday, 37°, out in the boat, pool is ready to go, bottled session ales last weekend that are currently sitting in a frosty fridge.
Drinking week old home brew :lol: that can be deadly

Sounds like boat/pool/drinking trifecta

Haha...it would be! This has been down for 3 weeks.

Pat, $246 and $80 bonus cash. Good luck mate!

Thanks!

I'll be happy to contribute nest year too.

That's how I looked at it, $50 and I had interest from 10am Tuesday to 8pm Saturday!

We'll be more prepared next year, perhaps float some ideas by way of structure and we may even look at increasing the buy in.

Last years $60 ( $50 + $10 Cup exotics ) was a bit harder to manage but gave us some more to play with.
