Home team first, as expected, Gentlemen Jack Elliot has once again provided the quote of the week:
CARLTON president John Elliott last night scoffed at suggestions the club's assistant coach Wayne Brittain would be at St Kilda next season.

''Why would he want to go to a rabble,'' Elliott said last night.

''We are successful and they are in disarray.

''Wayne Brittain won't be going anywhere, he will be staying at Carlton.''

What a class act, I hope to meet him in person some day!

P.S. Congratulations to Yohan on last weeks perfection.

working late and I should probably just wait for Yohan's magic tips but I can't risk another star.
Cats
Tigers - there's no reason for it - I just can't pick the bombers no more.
Kangaroos - both off a win
Dockers - prove me wrong boys, prove me wrong
Lions - they've been doging me all year. so I recomend the dogs
Blues - your lordship
Swans
'Wood!
and as a tie breaker: Brittain stays

I guess King Yohan is a bit busy this week for tipping. I was waiting for him to, but here are the winners anyway:

-Geelong (C'mon, is this even difficult?)
-Essendon (these guys are on cruise control, home and away)
-Power (Now where's that bandwagon I just saw come through here?)
-Roos (in a squeeker)
-Bulldogs (all their home balls come pre-drooled)
-Sydney (Long travel for the Eagles spells doom)
-Carlton (I don't have to like 'em to pick 'em)
-Collin'!

and Brittain? Yo, crows over pies? and the crowd-pleasing Power pick? ah, you afford it. I assume you'll be taking your honeymoon week off so that we (I) can all catch up.

The stretch drive begins, I figure 2 or 3 more tipps than Yohan a week and the Premiership of Tipping will be mine.
Cats Sainters suffer letdown as Big Jack refrains Brittain.
Tiges Yes, this is the week, fresh off a good chewing out Ottens and the boys will be tipping a few coldies Saturday night owners of the big upset. P.S. beware of the multiplier effect.
Demons Pagan will blow his stack after this tough defeat.
Dockhands Sorry Frank p, your birthday hangover continues.
Lions Apologies not accepted, sledgers stumble on road.
Blues Big Jack's an arse, but this team is gonna win the Premiership.
Swans Longnecks prevail, Eagles fly too far to finish the fight.
Crows Colliwobles play like Legionaires.
Have a great weekend everyone, Happy Birthday Frank p, we Yanks will be celebrating our birthday July 4, a great drinking holiday, as always, Chad Henry is welcome to attend my picnic.

Frank P, many happy returns! I will not be watching because I have a ton of work and a demanding girlfreind and she has access to a sailboat. result is that when not working for the Man, G is generally "overserved" and sunburned.

Looks likle a swing and miss for everyone on the StKilda-Geelong game. Oh well no perfect score this round. Once again I underestimated the effect of Big Jack's Big Mouth. The Sainters must of been fired up by the "rabble" comment.

I know. I know! I moved yesterday, and my computer is packed up, not to mention I didn't finish moving until after 2 am. I would have missed the Cats tip anyway, though. BUT Ms. Pez would have been the only winner of the first game! Damn.
Well, here's the rest of her tips;

Dons
Roos
Port
Lions
Hawks
Eagles
Pies

And now mine;

Dons
Roos
Port
Dogs
Blues
Swans
Crows

Have a great long 4th of July weekend, all!

Oh, by the way, I tried posting these damn tips about three hours ago and our f#cking server was down. I also spilled half my lunch on my friggin' dress shirt. God this day sucks! I long for 4:30 and the sweet relief of about a dozen coldies!

Thanks for all the best wishes on my birthday and please excuse whatever may follow.
I have been drinking for two nights and one day and am completely fu**ed up right now. It's 3.00 am and I have lost my friends somewhere, so I have to wait for my girlfriend to get here at 7.00 am and were going out again.
I left tonight and Port were getting hammered by Fremantle, I still haven't checked the final result but I bet we lost. I hate to say it, but I told you so.
I am going to stay up until I go out again so I have included my e-mail address if anyone is online and wants a chat or we could meet in the chat room from the baseball thread.
I hope you all have a great 4th of July and I hope this post is as good as Tim G's legendary pissed post from a while back.

I've never posted a thread on these boards, but I have read them quite often. And I have to say all of you have been pretty hard on this G-men guy. Yeah I realize he has an alternative outlook and way of communicating that rubs most of you wrong. But if you stop and take a second and read what he writes, and then the personal attacks that YOU all write to him, I think you'll see that most of you should get banned from these boards too. I see a bunch of hypocrits on here who only want to have things their way. I think the guy will tone it down, and banning him isn't the right decision to make.

Union Boys, always appreciate a new voice. I think most take Adam's posts personal because of his style (also, because we've been reading those posts for so long it's hard to see the change!). But most weren't so mad about the off topic post as they were about him posting the same message on multiple boards and threads. We set up that Politics Forum for just the kind of stuff he posted.

The response was very harsh, as you point out. Probably everyone got a bit inflamed, which I hope cools down.

Thanks for your post. You should post more often.

Am I missing something here? What's this about Adams g-men and why is it posted on such an old thread?
I better go take a look at the politics forum and see what is going on.
Union boys, good to see new guys posting here, but I hope you don't really think some of us should be kicked off too.

Frank, Adam posted virtually the same thing on a number of threads on the football board, all about this news about George Bush's DUI charge. It was retained on the Politics Forum, but deleted everywhere else.

You gotta see Guru's pumpkin on the football board. Very funny!

I'm not sure why Union Boys posted to this thread, but I'm glad to see some new blood.

Union Boys, this forum always welcomes new people and it's great to get new input on Aussie issues and related stuff. But this is not a political forum and I don't think you have a clue what you are talking about in relation to how the people in this forum post. We don't personally attack anyone (except of course Edperl, but he likes that sort of thing). For some reason you feel the need to tell the whole world about your feelings on this G-men person. Guess what? The whole world doesn't care. Don't come here to start trouble. You're welcome to join in all the Aussie rules football fun you want. XOXO rugg.
