Bemused how Grundy had 40 points at half time with 2 possessions and 14 hitouts. Anyway not to take away from your victory Alex,enjoy a few more JW's tonight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grannysapples wins the Violet Crumbles for picking 6 and being closest to the margin. I'd like to suggest, if we go again next year, if you don't contribute to the forum at all, a line gets put through you. It's pretty much Scea's to lose with a 3 tip buffer plus percentage. We start next Thursday for the final round. Until then. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BookmanBkk Posted September 14, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 14, 2020 Congrats to the Winners this round! Looks like Scea is heading for victory, despite all his computing power and tipping favorites every week, KhunWill looks to be 3 games too far behind... But Ozzydom is also 3 behind... Given the last round several teams have nothing to play for with their positions on the table fixed, we could see some MAJOR upsets and anyone's tipping to be won! Somehow, despite week after week of horrible tips, I am not last this year and Uncle Grumps is only one game away from passing me ????. At least i have some motivation for this week 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenwood only got one touch at the start of the third then went missing untill mid 4th....Grundy pretty much won every hit out plus feeding off the odd handball, he did a lot of one pointers, was anoying me to watch......it was like they were avoiding him, sitting in the centre during play no one kicked the ball to him....3 or 4 marks would have kept my anxiety down sir.....And i feel for you there in the boring scrub lands of Thailand, i would have been happy to loose as im over this season, that rabble i follow make it hard to like football you know.... PS ....I finnished my bottle of JWB and thats it, ive developed a sensetive belly as ive aged plus at $50 a bottle for an old soldier its well you know.....only lasts 4 sittings and not counting what gets evaporated...

Popular Post Radar501 Posted September 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) 1. The Thailand Mob in 2020 started with thirteen entrants, But in Round 6, Gazman072 disappeared from radar contact without warning or notice. leaving the current dirty dozen. He previously had expressed concern about BigWazz freeloading on the comp without contributing. I still see Gazman now and then on-line on the footy sub-forum, so I'm not sure wot the issues are there......and it's not really my business to know. 2. Has anyone else noticed that our forum has just clicked over 1000 pages, which coincided with the 15,000th post??? Surely a packet of Allens Chicos or Redskins should go to Farmerjo for this epic moment.

Popular Post Will27 Posted September 16, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 16, 2020 Was slightly perplexed whilst watched 360 last night. First they talked about Sydney standing down Elijah Taylor. Robbo looked like he wanted to unload on him and Whateley kept him on a tight leash. Said "be careful Robbo, there are police charged pending etc etc". Robbo "I applaud the AFL and Sydney's actions. The less said about that young man's behaviour, the better". Then in the very next segment, they went on for about 5 minutes on how well Jordan Ge Goey played and watch a match winner he is. What am I missing? Swans show the way for AFL with firm action on Elijah Taylor https://www.theaustralian.com.au/sport/afl/swans-show-the-way-for-afl-with-firm-action-on-elijah-taylor/news-story/5605c33c56c499be5ba95ad28b8dfec4 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sports press pretty much took its cue from newspapers like this one, you know i watched The Footy Show year one and enjoyed it, year two i started to drop off, year three not much had changed, back in year two i noticed how shaming or "putting it on someone" got laughs, demeaning someone was fun and morons went along for the ride, there use to be a Thripple M disc jockey had a bro doing it on some other station, hes name nick name was Grubby the bro, well the brother on 3M did some stand up as well, well every 18 to 45 just loved his guts but not me, all over building sites this clown could be heard every morning, didnt take long for me to understand how this so called stand up comedian and radio anouncer got his laughs, always putting someone down making them look like a dick.... Now WILL i have watched 360 a few times, you are brave and resilient i cant bare the pair especially that dick Robbo, Ive watched a few Goodwin youtube pregame interviews....now really after 3 or 4 he says nothing different so why bother???? That player WILL be back and all forgotten....Wayne Carey is a good example, make a fool out of yourself and 4 years later stick em on prime time TV..... Hey father Abblet, drugs up some young woman and she dies but hey they wanna stick him in the hall of fame....think Robbo was calling for that one time anyway the latter shouldnt get a hall of fame gig to well after hes dead and buried....if at all thats my view anyway... I know many here have been just iching for the new Apple phones to hit the decks...there being held back....i WILL try to resist but if we get to travel again good chance i will upgrade to get a better camera needless to say lots of upgraded products to wet ur appetite.....i maybe into getting a new ipad one of these days but not before they get face reganition....im over the button, working fingers dont stay the same fellas....https://edition.cnn.com/2020/09/15/tech/apple-watch-ipad-air-event/index.html now a watch....well there pricey but ive read there saved a few lives....adding all the time...get a Fit Bit there half the price and in my opinon even looks like an Apple watch but better https://www.fitbit.com/au/whats-new my fit bit will plow on a while longer but once they catch up a little to apple a new one is in the bag..... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radar, yes you are right it looks as though I did leave without any warning or notice. I thought I did write something but on checking back nothing was in the system. Maybe I have some of my brothers, Rotten Ronald, genes in overreacting. 1. I must admit the thing with Bigwazz freeloading did upset, I know Ron had taken him though the process a number of times and he still refused to partake. I had also spoken with him and the last time it got quite heated as he was unreasonable in the unfounded comments he was making about his participation in the Group. I would much prefer if those in the group were contributors even though my knowledge of the players and teams is no match for the rest of the group. 2. At the time of my leaving I had made a move from Bangkok to a new venture in Ubon Ratchathani. During this time I had little of no internet and I was unable to put my tips in. Things are a lot better now and apart from the odd power black out have a reasonable internet connection all the time. 3. The way the league has been set up this year was somewhat confusing and I could not get my head around it. Furthermore when in Bangkok I could watch the football on Australia TV or even on Channel 7/72 using VPN. This year 7 is not broadcasting any games and therefore I can not even watch a match which does make it more difficult. Once again my apologies for not saying anything and hopefully things will be better for me to participate in next years competition.
