Superthread LXXIV: Remembering Dead Musicians Who You Now Pretend to Like

[Misanthrope]

Did you bring us back anything?

I smuggled back a bunch of my favourite cereals and bought some junk souvenirs for my nephews and my niece.

Hoggmaster might have brought back syphilis with him, the rogue.

Especially NZ sav blanc!

Deadset, 6 months or so ago they brought in all these exclusive lines, including five NZ savs between $16 and $22. In their own educational materials they sent to stores they had a little bit on market performance. All five had "NZ sav blanc in this area of the market has declined by 30% in the last year"......but clearly, THOSE FIVE were the ones that would turn that trend around!

NZ Sauv Blanc has plateaued, but its in the $8-15 where the market is at. The intelligence you're referring to is the info on Villa, Giesen and to an extend Wither Hills. Those three brands took years to establish and drive that $18+ segment. Thinking any old brand will do the same job is ludicrous.

Main area of growth will be chard in the next 10 years, and ADHL Sauvvy.

Evening merkins. Long time, no firk

Was an interesting game. Brad Arthur is developing something there, and its exciting.

I make no such promises, Drew. I'm off to Singapore in four days to review a pair of hotels.

Afternoon. Sooooo hungover

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

Well, looks like I'm going to be an alcoholic again this footy season...

Glen Innes > Singapore

I hated Singapore last time, so I'm inclined to go with your assessment. Giving it a second chance for journalistic reasons.

Plus, y'know, they're paying for everything.

Well, looks like I'm going to be an alcoholic again this footy season...

You and me both, brother.

Yesterday's game drove me to drink a whole beer.

 

[McLovin]

Who are we playing in the grand final?

 

[Drew-Sta]

Well, looks like I'm going to be an alcoholic again this footy season...

Sharks are gunna be good this season too, so doubly alco...

 

[Red Bear]

Dragons looked ok early. Cant believe they took the two, 15 out and with a sharks player just sent to the bin.

Another job interview today, hopefully goes as well as the one I had on Saturday.

 

[Twizzle]

Unfortunately I also watched the Drags play last night, they look like they train with a cake of soap so they can just practice dropping the ball.

They got really good at it towards the end.

 

[DB]

They had the ball skills of a lesbian.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

Couldn't complete a sandwich

 

[Misanthrope]

I'm looking forward to Newie playing the Dragons. I reckon we've got them licked.

 

[dogslife]

A cripple fight for the ages

 

[McLovin]

Dragons would have beaten most teams yesterday. Just unfortunate they ran into the sharks...
