Road To The GF

[Madsharkie]

We have a rule at touch footy that if we throw an intercept that directly results in a try to the opposition, we owe a carton (of our choice) at the next team function. It's quite a funny occurrence that normally results in our own players running blocks and tackling the person who threw said intercept (who doesn't want to donate a carton), to allow the other team to score.

Anyway, we have a heap of cartons at a BBQ to watch the GF. So yeah, I'll be watching it.

Had we have made it, I'd be at the game again, with a lot of you screaming merkins. Oh well, there's always next year. Right?

 

[Stake Removed]

Not watching hoping that Cam Smith issue which costs Storm grand final involving Ref stuff up

 

[Quigs]

Josh Duggan just rode the first winner at Mildura.

Talent that bloke!

Must of been a f**king big horse carrying a jockey of that weight and size.

Rigged anyway. Soft race I reckon.

Hey bubby
My old man represented Aus back in the 11 in a row era
A cyclist
He reckons he was given handfuls of pills and told to just take them.
He never asked what they were.
Didn't question it.
They all took them.

Hey Carch I watched an old series zonks ago about the Tour De France. It was a brilliant doco series. Anyhowse on one episode they had a couple of old ancient cyclist that were talking about the time they first started to notice the intro of drugs into the sport/race.

These two old blokes recalled the time they were going down a very steep stage on one leg of the Tour and they both said it was as dangerous as.

They then recounted how this bloke just rode around them at speed and they said they both noticed his eyes were distant and weird. He was in another world.

We he was eventually. He just rode straight off the side of the cliff.

Dad reckons it was probably speed they were given... of a variety of.
He also said they'd have stout and lemonade in their bottles attached to their bikes.

This was in the st George area.
Exactly the same time as the 11 in a row.

Actually it was the trots but I couldn't remember what they called the dude on the sulky.

 

[Generalzod]

According to Gus Gould last years comp was soft, I wonder what he feels about this years competition.

How is this for a direct quote from that very same Doctor

"TONY MILLAR: My experience is you can sell a sportsman anything. You could sell them growth hormone and they wouldn't ask you whether it was equine or human, and they'd use it just the same."

From his experience????
Read into that however you like

Not many at all.
It wasn't until the 1974 Commonwealth Games that tests were developed to detect steroids, so there is no chance that anyone playing rugby league around, or before, then would have been caught.
Is your old man around still mate?

Yep

 

[bad boy bubby]

Yep

Ask him if he remembers the names of the doctors that were looking after them.
More specifically, if one of them was Tony Millar.
