We are thinking of putting it next to the Club Rooms, so it would be more visible with the added bonus of being next to a power point :lol:

Zartan did you get to have a Fat Boy Special on Saturday?

Thought it might've been deliberate to turn it off (went off for a few minutes during the B grade) to increase the suspense in the game haha! I liked the scoreboard though - took a little bit to get used to looking for it instead of looking up at the scoreboard though! :lol:

Definitely had a Fat Boy special - it's always top of my "to do" list when visiting Brahma, i bloody love them! Only downside was the 20min wait lol, but the man at the BBQ was under the pump a fair bit - and it was well worth the wait still :heart: :heart:

I learned that umpires will all have different interpretations of a sling tackle - and will report even if in doubt.

Watch out.

First time for Big Ado on the BBQ so he will get better, providing he decides to come back after the smashing he got LOL

He was telling me he loves a Fat Boy himself but requested they be removed from the menu as they are hard to cook

Glad the real stuff is back.


I dare say they didn't play a 18 man zone as you said its div6. I heard it was very windy and all the play was down one end until the last quarter. Maybe both teams played with an extra defender into the wind. Also maybe there is a gap between div5 and div6 Elizabeth won well and Pulteney did beat through big spenders and one of the flag favorites.

How did Gerardis go will he be available all year?

Play was actually predominantly on the far side of the ground most of the day, but a little easier to score at the northern end. Breeze picked up in the Agrade.
I thought Gerardis went Ok I don't know when he is or isn't available. You should come say g'day if you attend this week? I'm Happy to talk footy over a beverage.

Maybe there is a gap, although Lockleys, BOS, Smithfield and Rosewater movement into and success in D5 suggest otherwise. It's only early, wait until after everyone has played each other once. Don't think Elizabeth and Pulteney will get it all there own way but then again maybe they will!

Yep!

I burn easily but managed all summer/cricket season to not get burnt being sunsmart and always putting on sunscreen. On Saturday morning when watching our C grade it was very cloudy and raining and I thought I won't be needing sunscreen today. I was so wrong. Second quarter of my game the clouds piss off, sun comes out and I became a sitting duck so my face got roasted. Should of known that was going to happen. :(
