Hook, line and sinker :wink: What are your thoughts on Quiney being selected as cover for Watson? I'm pretty comfortable with it, I think he'll do a good job. It would of been good to have a younger guy there pressing for selection instead of another 30 year old debuting, but in saying that he...

They're mine too. Although my smokies would be Mount Athos, Maluckyday and maybe Galileo's choice if its a wet track. I am thinking of doing a boxed quinella including Americain, Dunaden, Red Cardeaux and Mount Athos. I am a bit new to horse racing betting but is there much value in doing a...

QLD….. And he failed :wink: Btw were you at Allan Border Field today Happy? :stuck_out_tongue: TO rub more salt into the wounds on a disastrous day for Australian cricket, Michael Clarke was wrongly given out and relentlessly heckled by rowdy Queensland fans. > Clarke, who last night admitted...

With two born and bred Blues players top scoring for them :wink:

Just goes to show that this 'resting' thing that CA are obsessed with is a load of BS. Bring Watson home early, re-injures his calf, treat Cummins with all these precautions, still injures his back. Even Ponting, has 6 months off and has a hammy issue. The players just need to get out there and...

Ali De Winter is the new coach, the former Tassie bowling coach. God knows why they picked him over Waqar Younis when Waqar has a proven record as a player and experience as a national coach.

When I saw the 'A' team immediately thought 'Is that the next best we have got?' I agree with you guys, where's Bird, Cutting, McDermott, Faulkner, Putland, Cosgrove, etc.

Growing up I was a Balmain supporter but I had a soft spot for Canberra and the Eels. Canberra because of their great side in the early 90s and the Eels because my dad went for them after living there in the 80s era. My soft spot for Canberra went when Mullins, Furner and Daley left in 2000\...

Am I the only one that feels Mark Cosgrove should be the next in line for Australia at Test and ODI level? He's been killing it since he moved to Tassie. A couple of more good Shield performances and I can easily see him sneaking into the Test side ahead of Cowan.

Gray Viane, Willie Manu, Ben Black, Troy Wozniak and Stuart Flanagan. I thought Viane and Manu were capable of forming a damaging 2nd row combination. I thought Ben Black would be the perfect man to take over from Craig Field and I was always a fan of Troy Wozniak but never cemented a spot...

Bennett is a Queenslander, Bellamy isnt a Victorian and Cleary was an Aussie coaching in NZ…

The only thing I worry about with Kevy Walters is that his larrikin type of personality might not suit a head coaching role. In saying that, to captain your club and state, his coaches obviously believed he had leadership skills to be a good captain and maybe behind his larrikin personality...

From what I have seen in the media, what he has been saying about his future hasn't been really convincing to me. You can take this with a grain of salt if you want but a friend of my friend knows Robbie Farah and he is seriously considering the Eels after next season. :frowning:

All the young guys have to do nowadays to get a good looking girl is throw the tatts on everywhere…

I said to basically the same thing to my mates before the finals started, and just my luck, the two teams play each other in a prelim resulting in one playing in the grand final :brick: I'll be going for whoever it is they play against in the grand final.

Talk about cutting it close! I'd feel like a genius after that! Manly 1-12: Manly win by 10 Less then 35 points scored: 34 points are scored. I had a similar bet going earlier in the year, all was going well with the Warriors winning by 16 just before full time where Maloney decided to kick a...

I was thinking last night Canberra and Cronulla, and it just so happens those two teams play each other in an elimination final this weekend. Outside of those two, maybe the Cowboys? Just as long as its not the Rabbits because we will never hear the end of it for the rest of our lives, or Manly...

I was just thinking about this a couple of weeks ago, but both seasons followed a very similar path. Both seasons began very badly but were followed by long winning streaks, then just as our seasons were on track, the team spluttered along, finally finishing the season with some awful...

We hear about this every year when we dont make the finals, especially in the 06-09 period where basically not much happened.

This is why I never read or take any notice of what the players and coach say in the media, because it all means diddly squat!
