Post: # 511709Post Otiman »

the writers for saints.com.au need to pick up their game, or at least they should stop outsourcing the journalism to china.
This will be your first opportunity to see some of our new recruits and
star rookies in action! King, Schneider, Dempster, C Gardiner and our rookies
including Chivers, Miles, McQualter and Haretuku are all chomping and the bit to prove their metal.

Bit rich of you to be having a crack at somebody about the quality of writing, isn't it Dools?

However, yes, it's crap form on behalf of the media department to let stuff like this slip through. I wonder if Deuce Bigalow was chewing through the new liquor supplies when this one went to print...

I sense an undertone of contempt in that last comment everton :wink:


They should only play AFL games now when it's raining. Slow games of footy are so much better to watch.

Haha...not at all. Just a slow Wednesday waiting for the lunchtime so I can wander down to Subway and grab a $3.95 6-inch Italian BMT.

There's a beer in my mini-bar fridge at work. Coopers Pale. The dirt has settled at the base of it nicely.

11:34am. Time for the SNES Emulator?

I encourage all young-ins to start on the Strongbow and work their way up from there.

I wheeled in a case on Christmas Day and the under-18 brigade went through it quicker than a Hummer on a frozen pond.

Dools,

Even if you don't get paid to write, why wouldn't you just write normally anyway?

"The Dirt" is yeast. Make sure you turn it upside down before you open it.

Some like it and others don't. I'm of the ilk that don't. The best way for this is to let it settle at the bottom and pour 95% of it into a glass. I recommend glasses for any beer, regardless.

Yep, that's what I do. Don't turn it upside down. Ruins that beautiful colour, too.

clearly a slow start to the day, eh ?

I'm just happy they've started adding articles
Has been a bit slow over the break - which is to be expected I s'pose - but I want updates to fill in the gaps

I keep coming back here to read the great training reports from our intrepid reporters...

A couple of pints of my home brew would make a man of you ! 8-)

Coopers is meant to be cloudy :idea:


*Allegedly.

Bring back Lucky Burgers, and nobody gets hurt.

Coopers is enjoyed however you please. I homebrew as well, and it's a skill in itself to avoid pouring the sediment there, coopers pales in comparison (pun intended).
