Cyril must be $1.40. Stevie J was favourite if he had taken the Cats golden handshake, instead of going to GWS. If Sam Mitchell is on the cover, sales will be down 2,000. Widely admired as a footballer. Widely disliked away from the leafy east.
if it is Cyril put me down for 80 copies
I’ll guess at some sort of triptych showing heroes of the three grand-finals. Possibly Lake and Hodge in the background with a larger painting of Cyril in the foreground.
Interesting choice of item used to cover the expected Hawthorn-centric painting.
I like a roughy – I’m going with Brian Peake.
Not bloody Hawthorn again! Surely, Swanny should get a gig this year?
if it is Rioli, my copy is available for Salvos
John – the photo reminds me of your claim to be in the worst 3 putters in Australia. Not sure if you meant putter or punter? Stand aside – I’ve got you covered on both fronts.
Hope the Melbourne Knackers enjoy tomorrow night. Jealous.
on the planet. Clearly you haven’t seen me putt.
See you and raise you. Whoops – bloody punting again.
Cyyyy-riiiiiil. Cyyyyy-riiiiil. Cyyyyy-riiiiil
Now surely since the almanac is really just cats porn it is,Paddy D ?
I bet if you turn the jumper around, Rulebook, it’s got 35 on the back
And the putter is surely a Billy Barou.
