Fixed.

Not so much it seems. Cossie was one of the players to suffer Gastro last week & lost 7 Kilo's.

With hard work, I'm sure he can put that back on overnight.

Looks like Cutting has been ruled out of the final. Bulls were worried about lack of match fitness apparently.

I wonder if by Tuesday the Banjos will be worried about a lack of talent? Cool

Have they managed to secure two hillbilly umpires? Is Porky coming out of retirement just special?

By all reports (and contrary to my initial post) the Billies are producing the flatest of all flat tracks. Seems they are prepared to to take the cowards option & win by a draw.

Lets hope this showery weather doesn't hang around for the next five days. 'twould be a shame to see it affect the final.

by skully Thu 15 Mar 2012, 08:21

[imagines smirk on wally's face] Cool

Anywho, enough of my banter. May the better team "win". Very Happy

the original FB thread celebrating 'Tasmania uber alles' has sadly been locked (you bastard, Dello) ... you may care to read it again: I know I did.

A loss to the Q'billies would be easier to bear than a loss to the filthy Spivs.

by WideWally Thu 15 Mar 2012, 09:52

BTW The correct convention is to name the home team first.

So the thread title should read -
Shield Final: Mighty Queensland v Wimpy Tozzies, 2011-12

by skully Thu 15 Mar 2012, 09:58

Hehehe, the correct convention belongs to who ever gets in first. Too slow, W. Very Happy

by PeterCS Thu 15 Mar 2012, 11:12

Noice, Wally.

by PeterCS Thu 15 Mar 2012, 11:13

So, who's gunna win?

by lardbucket Thu 15 Mar 2012, 11:21

Mighty Tozzies of course.

by PeterCS Thu 15 Mar 2012, 11:59

I thought you might say that!

BD is forecasting a disaster, it seems. The guy has been reading too much JGK.

by lardbucket Thu 15 Mar 2012, 12:04

Well, no woofing, I'll take the risk ... Tassie SHOULD win. Ponting, Butterworth, Bird, Faulkner, Cosgrove, Triffitt, Krazy ... there's a few very decent players there. QLD has been cruelled by injury.

BD will probably hunt me down, now, if we don't.

This is one of those occassions where you are supporting the team you want to see lose least

Is this the last time a shield final was in Brissie?

White 4 & 9. Things hav'nt changed much.

by skully Thu 15 Mar 2012, 20:25

Who is this MG Johnson chap? A 10-fer? Did anything become of him?

by Big Dog Thu 15 Mar 2012, 20:33

The game immediately prior to that one has more significance.
