Frank p, where the heck is Manuka Oval?
To my Aussie friends down under, including Hatters, Frank p, and yes disappeared Chad Henry, is there any confession you would like to make?
*Last Sunday’s Hawthorn-Adelaide match at the picturesque York Park in the northern Tasmanian city of Launceston not only created a cash bonanza for the Hawks, but also created a new record for the most footballs souvenired in a VFL/AFL match. Apparently, umpires were using the last spare ball after the fourth Sherrin, marked with a VW logo and cost A$99 each, failed to return from the crowd in the last quarter.
Good tipping!

edperl, Manuka oval is in Canberra, our nations capital and home of the Aussie porn industry. Hmm politicians and porn? the pieces seem to fit together.
I can't believe that those Tasmanians waited outside the oval just to collect stray footy's. Too stingy to buy a ticket into the game, it's no wonder we broke their island free of the mainland.
Teams making the haul this week are:
Adelaide;
Brisbane;
West Coast; (he he)
Collingwood;
Sydney;
Geelong.

Posting from the library again. My PC won't power up. Going to have to install a new power supply, I think. If I zap myself, well, it's been fun playing.
Still searching for Cooper's. ;-)

OK here's our picks for the week, and I'll be adding next week's picks later, since Ms. Pez and I will be lounging on a cruise to the Carribean next week. I promise to tip many cold ones in honor of my EFF brethren in between snorkeling trips.
First, as always, the lady:
Tigers
Lions
Saints
Eagles-What!?
Port!
Swans
Dons
Dockers
And for the gentleman:
Tigers
Lions-Come on Keating, we need you!
Saints-Roos not jumping without Carey.
Hawks-This should be ugly. Don't let the kids watch.
Port-Huge crowd and huge win! Whose that benefactor in the crowd?
Dogs-FYI; I changed my mind here, so the Swans will likely win.
Dockers-What the hell. They gotta win some time, huh?
I'll take the Dockers as my pick of the week. Risky, but the Cats are hurting.
Since Ms. Pez is not answering the phone at home. I'll just make her pick of the week as the Tigers.

Richmond
Roos (I just can't bring myself to tip the Saints. Ever).
Hawthorn
Carlton
Collingwood (home fans leave disappointed, saying if they ever find out this "Frank" guy's last name, he's dead meat)
Essendon
Sydney (tough pick for me)
Fremantle
Read 'em and weep. And to show I'm fully confident, I'm picking the Roos as my Team O'the Week.

Well I've got a ticket to the big game against Collingwood, so keep an eye out for me on any replays. I'll be doing my best to leave the stubbies till after the game, but I'll probably fail that test.
Lets Go Port!!!!

I hate to have to be the "perl police" AGAIN, but I do believe that rugg has pulled his first perl of the year with only seven picks. I think Rugg's mind is somewhere else--perhaps in the Carribean on some big boat with an ice cold Coppers in each hand.

Frank, you gotta help us out by holding up a RotoGuru Rules! sign or something. Otherwise, we'll be looking for the young Aussie fellow who looks like he'd rather have downed some stubbies in the lot before the match, and that narrows the crowd down by, well, none.

Doh! Oops, but P Tiger is right. I missed the Dons-Demons game. I do believe, however, that since the game has not started I can still get my tip in, which is of course for the Dons.
Frank, I agree with Perm Dude. Please get some sort of Rotoguru or even better, an EFF sign. I'm not sure if we will get to see too many highlights here in the States, but maybe you'll make the Fox World Footy highlight show. That would be fantastic!
By the way , Kudos to G*3, who was the only one with the stones to pick the Crows over the Tigers. ;-)
