Stagtime

6 week UK trip booked for next year, leave Brisbane 28 April and 38 hours later land in Inverness. 3 days in Inverness then 7 days walking the Great Glen Way from Fort William to Inverness. Nothing confirmed after that but looking to stay somewhere around Derby for 3 weeks then head south. 

Ha HA I Won't be going to Pattaya. I'm off to an Island called Koh Chang. It's like the Caribbean was in my mind before I went there. Cheap, laid back, wooden shacks on the beach. Lovely. 

Maybe 5 minutes so a doc can give the all clear. As long as there’s a free replacement for the time off the pitch would be fair in my opinion. The 15 minutes is the time it takes to get through concussion protocols. We have a independent doctor making the assessment.

Maybe rugby league’s mandatory 15 minute HIA assessment would change things. Player can be substituted as a free change and after passing HIA can come back into play.

Well done to the Tillies, first time into the semis.

Bubbles?

What I find funny is that Bairstow tried exactly the same play against Labuschagne in the first innings but missed. Good for some but not others?

😂 I’m looking for the scoreboard that shows 2-0

I am proud to say that i have been working with the club on these identity colours, there is going to be a lot more coming, the heritage of our club is something to celebrate, we are not just boring black and white and it is now coming back to the fore 😍🐏

I thought that too.

Not if you’ve ever lived in Melbourne mate. As the late Robin Williams said, if Melbourne’s not the asshole of the world you could definitely see it from there.

Gotta love Origin season especially if you’re a Queenslander.😄

Never played a game of “soccer “ in my life but judging from some of the tackles that other sides got away with maybe my rugby league background will get me into a defensive position.

We leased a unit in Rose St above shops and pubs for a month and lived like locals. Absolutely loved it doing walks during the day and then hitting the pubs at night. Lost count how many times we’ve been, pity about the 30 hours of flying to get there.

We are staying in Sanur

If you are into cycling, I would recommend the bike tour from Kintamani Volcano to Ubud. It’s virtually all downhill and you go through traditional Bali villages. We’ve stayed at Kuta, Nusa Dua and Ubud but our preference is Ubud as it’s more relaxed. Nusa Dua is more of your big resorts and Kuta is backpacker central.

5300 km road trip with the new Ute. Down to the bottom of Victoria and now back home.

1. Driving up to Bradford for the first friendly; my hubby was umpiring but I couldn't miss being there to clap out our team, our club, we still had a club! ⚽️🐏
Massive support that day, we couldn't quite believe we were watching football again. I remember Didzy gave away the ball for about ten minutes, then didn't give it away again after that. NML looking fit and confident. Little Oduroh,  looked like he'd wandered over from the under 16s game, but showed great skill against men twice his size. Rosenior, so pleased to be given his chance and very appreciative of the fans' support. 
2. So many new grounds to visit, such contrasts between the welcome of some clubs and downright hostility of others. Thank you Exeter, Port Vale, Morecambe, Accrington. 
Least said about Wycombe, Lincoln, Bristol Rovers the better! 
3. Just the people I share awaydays with, we're a band of brothers and sisters who have travelled many miles, laughed and cried over the performances but always been there again next week. Some I know well, others are just familiar faces, but we smile and nod to each other as we know we have walked the walk together this season. Long may it continue.
