Round FIVE: IT'S GONNA GET BETTER AROUND ABOUT NOW...

Some of you might be having fun here, good luck to you.
I DID enjoy a night on the piss-slippery tiles at the Union last thursday however, and apparently my team is now only the second most heinous one going around. That's gotta be good, yeah?

Anyway, I took Easter a week early this year sorry, so here's this and only this:

 
There's been a strong rumour going round that Taffa's been hanging with the Dank-man in his 3 or so years of self-imposed excommunication, and the chart is looking like Exhibit A for the prosecution at the moment. Whatever he's on, I'll take a family pack thanks.
Tassy's doing what Tassy does, either winning or going close, and quite a few very familiar names hovering in the win-zone. 

You know the drill: Send your co-ords here.

Round 3. I'm feeling pretty down myself...

It was the week all Melbourne supporters can now stop wondering when Mitch Clark will come back and help our renaissance. Depressed? Yep you betcha. We'll just never get that forward line working it seems. Remind me to tell you one day about the Norm Smith Curse. You can bet I'll mention such coulda beens as Clark, Jurrah, Wonnameiri, Jakovich, Schwartz, the Wizz, Mark Jackson, Templeton, 'Fabulous Phil' Carman, Crosswell, Sean Charles, 'Diamond Jim' Tilbrook, Greg Parke (Dawes? Hogan?). Dream forwards who failed, fizzed, farted around or fucked off.

Now to this... will you guys stop jumping around and ruining my picture please:

Taffa's been in self imposed exile from the Drunk for 2 or 3 years, preparing himself like Bonnie Prince Charlie to usurp the Drunk crown. And La! Here is is sitting atop the pile. Most of the other names up there won't surprise anyone.

Heads 'n' Ball R3

After the Newcastle Knights' Alex MacKinnon's horrific paraplegia inducing injuries a couple of weeks back I thought I'd be nice and topical with this one. Then just this past weekend young Albury Tigers player James McQuillan suffered severe spinal injuries and was rushed to the Austin in a critical condition, yet to hear his long-term prognosois. Gee I felt great hearing that...

JOHN GREENING: Spent 24 hours in a coma and days of semi-consciousness after being flattened by Jimmy O’Dea in R14 ‘72. Was on track to win the Brownlow that year, he came 7th despite his season ending in R14. Lucky not to die or be permanently disabled, he came back a couple of years later, played 2 games then disappeared from the game.

NEIL SACHSE: Not so lucky. Injured in '75 in a freak collision with The Lions' Kevin O'Keefe during only his 2nd game for the Doggies, former Nth Adelaide premiership player Sachse became a quadriplegic.

Taffa said Barry Round, and was wrong.
Harv said John Greening and ahh... Neil Sachse and was right on both counts.

Coxy, Taffa and Brenton all had a go this week. They all found the haystack, but no-one got even close to the needle.

And so Harv, the original King of Head goes marching onwards:

 

A new GrandSunBall, and a far more complex CelebHead for you to solve.

Send your answers where? How? Here. And like this.

7 days and counting....

ROUND 2 REHASH:

The ladders looking nice and messy already as the forces of gravity and bad habits take over.

No major technical glitches this week I don't think (unless we include at least one footy team in that appraisal).

Around the grounds: Our Drunk Sainters are cock'a'hoop at their lofty ladder position and their success in beating the Dees and the Germs, and frankly good on 'em, get it while you can I say.

Otherwise I'm not talking much about footy at the moment, my mum always said 'if you don't have anything nice to say, best say nothing dear' and so far I'm trying to adhere to that.

Heads and Balls

The answers to last week's Head reflect PunchDrunk's support for the pride his worthiness, our Minister of Primeness, has shown in his Australianity, by resurrecting the peerage. Rule Britannia he says, and we're right behind him.
As, no doubt are Pastor Sir Doug Nicholls and the high-flying poos and wees, Knightsy.

 

Your answers:
Kurtz: Peter Knights (24)/ (Pastor) Sir Douglas Nicholls - 2 points
Taffa: Peters Landy & Knights - 1 point
Harv: Peter knights and Sir Doug Nichols - 2 points
Richo: Peter Knights & Pastor Doug Nicholls - 2 points

And here's wher the pesky Yellow Sherrin was this week:

And so, to the running tally: Richo and Harv are out there.
