I've got no idea why Fittler played Moses as dummy half most of the night. The only time he was 1st receiver was on the last tackle. Either a total lack of confidence in his ability or ...?

Thanks for bumping this Mike - I didn't know the thread existed. *Power of the Dog* and *Frankie Machine* both fantastic reads from an American author named Don Winslow.

I'm in my 60's and had the AZ vaccine on Friday. Luckily not one side effect (yet?) - not even the injection site was sore at all. My wife (60's) and a mate (50's) were both knocked on their backsides by it. My mate even said that his "skin ached" for 2 days. Not sure if I've got the best...

Tiger5150, IF your friends HAD overstayed their visa and fought it through the courts (which they are entitled to do), do you think the government would have re-opened Christmas Island for just them and detained them there until the case was resolved?

Yep not my smartest move! Couple of hundred at $4.50, $16 at 13+ at $10 and $40 Daine Laurie first try scorer @ $20 Thankfully my mate's horse won yesterday at Warwick Farm. Got the win at $7 and 8.3 x the trifecta. Nice end to the weekend thankfully. I really should stop drinking before our...

And do it well

I reckon we do it

OK - big day. Big bet on tigers at 4.50 and a top up at 13+ lol I’ll post ticket if i win lol

Born in Mudgee now in a little NE Vic town called Tallangatta on Lake Hume (via Sydney, Port Stephens, Perth and Melbourne. Fun fact: the Male Model From Mudgee used to be my uncle's apprentice barber and used to cut my hair when I was small enough to need a box to sit on in the barber's chair :)

I consider myself a reasonably astute punter. Before the game last week Tigers were $6 to make the 8 - the price I was looking for. A couple of hours before the Cowboys game I thought “better get on now cause we’ll thump them and price will shorten”. So I had a fair sized bet (for me). We...

Lol

I thought I’d have a look at the ladder position after the final round for the last 20 years (yeah, sad I know!) where a team has lost its first 2 or 3 games in a row. When the comp was 15 teams I treated the bye as if it didn’t exist even though the team got 2 points. This all assumes the...

An omen bet for the weekend's Golden Slipper? The breeder's son is a Wests Tigers tragic. https://www.smh.com.au/sport/racing/you-ve-just-bought-the-ugliest-mare-in-australia-how-a-fish-farmer-started-a-slipper-dream-20210318-p57bu4.html

Sportsbet have us at $3.60 and $1.88 with 10.5 pts at the line. That is overs in my opinion.

Sorry, a bit long but needs to be… An international pilot lived at the end of a remote, dirt road in the mountains. Most weeks he was overseas and was only home for a few days each month. He retired recently and a neighbour a few kms away noticed his car was now parked at the house full time...

My wife is taking the kids and she is leaving me due to my obsession with horse racing. And they're at the gate now......and they're off!!!

Just one more thing. If you are using dry yeast about 15 mins before you are going to pitch it get a small bottle of water (the normal type you buy) and being careful with sanitation, cut the corner off the yeast sachet and pour it into the bottle that has about half the water left. The yeast...

For anyone wanting to know more about getting into brewing or brushing up on things John Palmer has the full 1st edition of his book "How To Brew" available for free on the link below. There are a few things peculiar to the American way of brewing but it's a first class intro to brewing. [link...

Hey Gallagher, You can put say 25g of your preferred hops into a coffee plunger of hot water for 15 mins and just add it to the wort. Or you can get some malt extract (I used to prefer dry extract) and add 100g per litre of water. Use say 500g in 5 litres of water, dissolve it and bring to the...

I’m not sure why anyone would hate Ricky Stuart - been a world class player in two codes - wears his heart on his sleeve - isn’t politically correct - his players love him - has a great tactical brain. I was at “that” GF and Canberra never gave up. Hated the result but that’s footy. The $100...
