The lid is off. All season we have kept the lid on but the Old Boys are now out and about. They easily accounted for Surfers on the Demons dung heap Sunday 20 Sept. No contest. Congratulations to all except (i) the Coach of Broadie's Magoos who lined up somewhere on the forward line for Surfers (and looked reasonable in the clinches when let off the leash), and (ii) whoever barred the ajudicators from a shower post game. Apparently the Demons hierarchy was not happy with the whistlemen and exiled them from the Ashmore Road precinct.
Forget Karmichael Hunt. The conversion story of the new century is Matt Geyer, formerly of Melbourne Storm, who picked up a premiership medallion with the Old Boys. Adrian Smith is salivating.
Club captain Dicko was interviewed by the Police Department last week with a view to academy entrance. The interview panel, amongst other comments, noted that Dicko's beep test (14.5) was the best they had seen since the Fitzgerald enquiry. Good luck Dicko.
Mick and Ann Williams arrived at the airport last week ready to take the first leg of their leave in Bali. They were a week late and after coughing up some $2400 boarded for Denpasar. When they landed they ran into an earthquake. There is a moral in there somewhere for Tasmanians who head north from Broadie for a break.
Committee member Arthur Brown has a part time job at the circus in Robina. With a red nose, giant feet, a Dicko wig with a Bob Walters gap, he entertains the kids as a clown - named Bosto! Neil Boston aka Uncle Arthur, is not amused.
Craig Sinclair, Dozer, Brooksy (Lee) and Perko are now celebrating the September colliwobbles. No flowers, donations to the swan family please.
Congratulations to the Fulton family on the arrival of Phoenix.
