Positional niceties do not apply as strictly in the final stages.

According to an email I received from Eastwood, it is us. And some other outfit starting with East.

Chicken and egg, innit. I suspect that international rugby has a bigger impact on the public consciousness than netball or the A-League. If we keep winning, that might lead to higher ratings. Not sure what else we could do? The drawn game definitely got more airtime on FTA news bulletins; if...

Yep. Then again, I am a lot older than most (if not all) hereabouts: which means that I have seen a lot more AB victories! So I don't give a stuff how he builds a winning culture, as long as he does. The correct name of the jersey colour is the least of my problems.

If he builds a winning culture he can call it anything he likes, as far as I am concerned. In fact, we can change the name of the colour!!! It would be a very small price to pay.

Rennie comes across as a fairly normal, fully integrated, human being. What a relief.

I hope its Pone. I would love to see him and Tupou on the field together, rampaging through the opposition.

I thought Paisami was pretty good, especially in defence. Gee it would be hard to drop him, I reckon. Having said that, Petaia is an absolute match winner. I would like to see Hosea and Wright in. Samu was good, without being a match-winner. Simmons is a tradesman, I would like to see a bit more...

I could see Skelton in the row, with LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) moving to 6, and Wilson to 8. Mouth-watering.

From what I can gather, the richer sports produce their own news items, and send them to the networks. We run on the smell of an oily rag these days (and some of the critics hereabouts think that even that is too extravagant). No way we can compete when it comes to publicity. We could try...

If we can get our lineouts working, and kick our kickable goals, we will take some beating, I reckon. That said, the Darkness played really poorly by their standards, and there were some weird selections, to my eye anyway.

3. White 2. LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) 1. Daugunu

That was a phenomenal performance IMHO. One of the great Tests. Every Australian player looked as though he knew what his role was, and the game plan was really good.

Eastwood made their first grade debut in 1949, we lived within earshot of the old Eastwood Oval. A couple of years later I was allowed to toddle down to watch them play - and they usually lost. Particularly to Gordon!! I have never quite understood how Gordon managed to be so dire for so...

Could have been more enjoyable, of course!

Mmm. Like Kalyn Ponga? (I do not know enough about league to have an informed opinion: what I do know is that the NRL and also second tier league clubs in Australia are rapacious and well-loaded, and always have been. For decades they stripped away most of the best rugby players, thanks in large...

That's a relief. Kind of.

I will have nothing to do with Amazon. We had a hacking incident a few weeks ago, a phone call from what turned out to be a spurious source, but they had our landline number, my name, and they knew something about the account (we were due for an instalment on a Prime subscription). It took me...

I have had it up to here with Newscorpse. Climate change deniers, Trump supporters.

It all sounds a bit shambolic. Anyway, thanks for the info!!! I hope everything is a bit more settled when the finals start.
