He had a problem.


One of the Fox commentators ran with that in Houston's first game, even Tony Shaw, who somehow manages to survive despite having no medulla oblongata, was unimpressed.


Could start another topic but which Shaw do people think is the biggest flog?
I'd have Tony just in front of Heath.
Apologies to Ray who by all reports could have knocked his brother off first place.

Are you shaw?

I did meet Rhys and was very impressed with his demeanour.

Ray is Tony's brother.
Rhyce is Heaths brother.

Port by 28 points

Eade's a deflector. I can't believe Gold Coast are at $3.10.


Gold Coast are playing some good footy at the moment and Port will have to be at their absolute best to win this one.

Agreed. I'm much happier playing Gold Coast in China with Port players flying Premium Economy and Gold Coast flying economy than playing them at Metricon. If this game was at Metricon the odds would be dramatically different with Port a slight favourite.

Social media pics coming through of the players landing in China.

Plenty of pics from fans already on the ground / wall etc. Bit jealous I'm not over there, but not so much in some respects.

Any signs of sand storms, people dying from smog or nuclear missiles flying over from the North?

I think they had a light run, stretch etc last night. The team was on two seperate flights so they didn't all get there together until late afternoon.

Went to Shanghai in February, really liked the place except the food poisoning I got... LM should got to the Disney, I loved it and to be honest it will be a lot more entertaining than the footy game he is going to see

I don't think he's going mate. He was interested in when the lads were training.

Reports of a lady who went over having a heart attack on arrival. She's had a stent put in at a local hospital and they're stabilizing her to get on a flight back to Melbourne.

That sucks!

Pray for wind the day before the match, and then on game day it will be clear.
