I don't believe it- but now you are calling me a perennial offender @YoungWillz Should I be worried that your anger will evolve into punishment? Am I now due to have my sexy ass smacked hard??!! Don't assume I would regard that as a punishment You are always ahead of the curve GC, that's all. If you stuck with some of your picks, who knows? If you get that right, you could win that damn DDP game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lots of careful thinking and consideration required when I put together next years teams. I did notice though that you didn't deny you were going to smack my ass hard as punishment....

TylerTheCreator 34 Posted October 8 John Laws (89) has announced his retirement after 71 years on the airwaves. Doesn't seem like the sort of thing he'd do absent of fairly significant health/ageing related factors. John Farnham's (74) voice has been heard publicly for the first time in 2+ years, following his cancer surgery. Doesn't sound too bad considering the circumstances: https://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/victoria/hear-john-farnhams-voice-post-cancer-surgery/video/fcd16f484c1715c7cdbfeb8727ba32cc 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
