Sad to see John Elliott passed away. Really used to enjoy his visits to the channel 9 footy show.

You getting nervous Alex,teams out today. I'm not a fan of these night grannys. It's the one day of the year it's ritual to awake to a beer and get the atmosphere of day rolling. A nana knap pre game doesn't excite me so looks like it will be a 2 o'clock start. Congrats on Goody getting the gong of the coaches,interesting that Clarkson has never made the list.

Voss the Boss. Probably the best of what was left. Now he just needs to assemble some assistants and make the finals next year. Shouldn't be to hard???? Still exciting times for the Blues.

I couldn't pick my nose but was 4th in the margins.???? I'm looking forward to the wing battles. Hunter,Brayshaw and R.Smith,Langdon. Left footers v right footers and lots of running power. The big question is about the umps. Will it be a game of AFL or Rugby.

Would like to see the Dees for Alex and Oz but... Dogs for me,37 points and McRae for the Norm. Gawn will be targeted and lack of games over the last month will hurt.

I can see why Cog's form has dropped off. https://www.perthnow.com.au/sport/afl/brownlow-medal-red-carpet-mega-gallery-all-the-glamour-from-the-afls-showcase-event-at-perths-optus-stadium-c-4005722

Just finished watching the Port Adelaide doco. More about the supporters and their passion,not to bad. I'm a bit of an honour board and team pics through the years buff. Used to give me chills walking into a club and seeing the champions on the walls as a youngster.

Still waiting,Expatvac registered,50 and in the boonies.

I couldn't work out why North signed Josh Walker on for another year and now the penny has dropped with Tarrant going to the Tigers. Will be sad to see him go but North dilly dallied to much on the contract. Hope he has a productive time there except against us. I really liked his forward craft earlier in his career but once Scott sent him into defence,it's hard to get out of there.

All about getting to know the machine and some of those forums are very handy for specific issues,i quite often refer to them for troubleshooting. I also had a look for you and besides what you found they did also mention to check the cable adjustments. My Morooka has a dog clutch setup as well,it has clunked from day one when enguaging it but runs smooth once in and is more likely to stall the engine than slip. On the RPM,besides the post hole digger i always run to the specs using the hand throttle as i'm sure the implements are designed at 540 or 1000 rpm for a reason. Thai's tend to use the foot throttle which i think is more for comfort rather than the interest of the machine. Hope you get a few holes dug when digger back together.

Not sure how the Kubota is figured internally,never had it apart as all my implements barr the rotovater i brought with external clutches. On my Ford for memory there is a splined shaft that goes from the flywheel to pto clutch pack then another to back of tractor. At a guess you have stripped the spline at the flywheel. Price,member grumpy john had a thread on here with the cost to replace spigot bearing on clutch so it would be roughly the same,maybe you could PM him if he's still around.

I'd go 1 litre of oil and 1kg grease to start,then add as required.

Thankyou BritManToo. I followed your recipe and made my best loaf ever. With the less amount of water it made the breadmaker jump about a bit. I just replaced the broken drive belt from before and have a spare so good to go for a while now.

How aggressive is the the auger? And does your digger have its own external clutch on it. Tractor internal clutch packs can get expensive when they start slipping. But in saying that the Kubota PTO has been the best and most reliable of the tractors i've had. Just be careful with the swaying as you say otherwise it will be the tractor axle seals you will be fixing next.(i know from letting the FIL do some contracting once) Slow and steady wins the race while raising and lowering regularly to keep the hole clear of dirt. Here is a pic of one of my augers,the cutting edge plates can be replaced.

You dirty on the Umps Scea?

Die hard fans are usually a minor percentage at GF's. It's all about the money so the business world moves in to entertain clients and what i've read, WA has been doing quite well for itself. A great chance for locals to experience a once in a lifetime event. I was fortunate enough to get to the MCG in 99 for the Kangaroos last premiership. Although officially it was a tax deducted 2 week cropping tour with a chemical company.

When i was a kid there was a sports complex i stayed at when we played the school CIG footy games, Noranda i think but it was all dormitory style accomodation which wouldn't suit the modern players. If Melbourne are staying in Joondalup they will have access to West Perths home ground. If the Dogs are at the Trade Winds then most likely shunted to North Fremantle oval. Quite a few lower grade and country grand finals on this weekend so i can understand why the date of the GF is what it is.

Not really,will watch the GF if nothing else on. On the training,i would say it will be mainly in the pool and lots of stretching. And a lot of mental stuff reviewing opposition players and tactics. Not sure where the Dogs are staying,i stayed at the Trade Winds about 30 years a go and if still the same it would seem a little cramped if there is around 80 in the touring party. I would have been trying to book out a place like Cherokee Village if it still even excists.

Well it sets up for a great granny. Cats and Port had their pants pulled down and were spanked. Pity there's not a test match or two on to fill in the time till the game. Having done quarantine it is not something every body handles well,although as Rip just mentioned it's not a solid lockdown in their case but a complex/group isolation which is completely different to being locked in a room 24 hours a day.

My implements that have gearboxes have a breather fitted.(post hole digger and brush hogs) The pressure build up has to go somewhere. (usually out the seal if the unit is over filled) When you put it back together,put a breather on one of the inspection plates and you might not need anything other than 90 grade oil. I have used a 50/50 oil/grease mix in the past if it's required. 90 grade oil and EP2 grease,mix together in a bucket.

Normally a gasket would be fitted to get correct end clearance on bearings and mesh of the teeth. If it is just for the oil seal you could go a thicker gasket to change the contact position on the shaft if a groove is worn or do away with the gasket and use silicone gasket maker. Check if there is a breather,if it has one most likely blocked from hornet nest.That will cause it to leak. Can always add some light grease to mix with the oil to stop leaks.

86 mm west of Chumphae yesterday.

So what would be considered a better brand in the LED world. Panasonic?

I have an LED driver that blows reguarly on a Lamptan square light. It's 24watt,would i compromise the system if i installed a much larger rated driver? I mean would it help.
