Round One Summer: Roosters v Jock Strap

Like a hyperbolic intergalactic super nova two great sporting events coincided in one spot last Saturday. The first was a race that a nation stopped for. Black Caviar winning a 14th race at Caufield. The second only meters away and witnessed only by it's participants was the mighty Albert Park Roosters v Glenhuntly.


Round 1 Summer Comp and already we had all players attending practice and we did better that Round 1 v MCC in the Winter Comp. Eat sh*t former captain.

We have a long way to go however losing 3 rubbers to 1. In a climate similar to  Phar Lap's demise doping rumours abound. Which one of us was the biggest dope?

A big thank you to Brian for filling in and for partnering with Mark for the winning rubber.


THE BIG TISSUE

No Black Caviar here but an exotic smell so pungent that only the two team slavs could pick it.

The team wasps Alan and Brian found the cheesy smell alluring and Alan was reminded of the Australian Open in Kooyong 1976 when Richard (Dick) Fromberg (Cheese) threw his head band into the crowd. "Ah that gentle waft" the young Age sports journalist declared  before taking a long cold shower.

What the rookie connoisseur didn't know was that Fromberg's head band was really his crusty old jock strap and that the playful Yvgeny (Glenhuntly #4) sensed Alan's historical reminiscence and sense of occasion and reenacted the moment as only a large corpulent aromatic Russian man could. You can see the cheesy like substance in the middle of the picture. Curiously desirable yet an emetic at the same time. A bit like Mark.

Indeed so potent was the aphrodisiac that we had to literally hose Brian down after the celebrations.

Alan was last seen taking down the big Soviet's number and ordering more of the forbidden delicasy.

So, on with Round 2

We have Vic, Deano, Yuri and Neale at home. If you're about please come and join us. 1pm.

Practice is at 6.30 again on Thursday. Non attendees will be shot.
