Well the great Jack Gibson who was a doorman at Thommos 2 Up and a big SP operator swore blind that Darcy was part of that 63 fix, and made a handsome amount. The other fix I remember was about 1966( I think) when the Balmain hooker and captain, Dick Wilson was able to get the high flying...

That’s why imo Benji will start with AD, coz he gives the team direction. The other guy will be 14.

Thanks Susie, I wasn’t aware of all the connotations until now.You learn something new every day ! But I still prefer Merry Xmas on Xmas Eve. Happy New Year !!!

Currently very cloudy but no rain. I’ve just finished my 5km walk and having coffee. I’m not going to cricket , preferring races at Sandown, whilst watching on TV.

Slightly late but many thanks for all the hard work you put in, much appreciated by me and many others.

Good morning from an overcast Melbourne to all cricket fans. Max Temp today 17 degrees, brrrr. All I’ve got to say is Boxing Day Test ! ( it’s right up there with “ start your engines”) 4-0, 4-0, 4-0.

I went to a McDonalds drive through on Christmas Eve and the young guy serving said “ Happy Holidays “. Assume they mst have been told to say that so as not to “offend “ anyone. Just sounded wrong !

Never quite understood the lyrics to this one but liked the song !

Blast from the past. Rode Lord Fury to win the 1961 Melbourne Cup at 20/1.

You’ll need a holiday to recover from your holiday ! Enjoy

To all my fellow forumers, I hope you,your families and friends have a Joyous Christmas and let us hope that our respective governments can get their stuff together and make Australia like it used to be in 26 and beyond. And, of course, that our mighty Wests Tigers can continue their climb up...

Good but have to have my annual “Love Actually” fix. Maybe do both !

My Aussie niece is married to a nice( cricket mad) British chap who has swapped birthday/ Xmas presents for the next 10 years so he can come out here and attend the 5 days in Melbourne and 5 days in Sydney. He is drooling at just being here, irrespective of the 3-0 score line. Just shows how...

I think he could be a dark horse for us, we need some grunt and when fit, he’s got it !

This sounds like my wife’s Christmas wish list !

To let staff know the hot chooks are ready.

Spurs 1 Liverpool 2. Another home defeat for Spurs, who ended up with 9 men after 2 sent off. Liverpool dominant. Frustration, anger and disappointment. Where to from her Come On Ye Spurs.

Sad

Survival ball. They are currently hanging on to the cliffs edge by their fingertips but are about to fall. And destroy the rest of the series, Melbourne and Sydney will become afterthoughts. Whether we win 3-0 or 5-0 doesn’t really matter ( to me anyway). Pom’s haven’t won here since 2011 and...

Good luck for Season 26.
