070301 – Children of the Fricken Corn

070301sml.jpg

Holy shit! We look like we are about to take up axe handles, pitchforks and gasoline torches, and head on into a convent to do Satan’s work. Look at Wal and Chas for Christ’s sake, are they not eyeball eating twins from some Stephen King novel. Gill is like, ‘sure I’ve killed a hundred children, and i will kill a hundred more whatever’. Even Nice Guy Hannan looks like he is only smiling because he is having a footbath in babies blood or something. Cocky and Tao look like they want to hurt someone real bad. Kondo is a dimension of pure evil hidden in the darkness, and Rhian looks an angry extra from Watership Down.

MATCH REPORT 070201

Vs crystal clear water cocksuckers
DC 2, JH 1, AW, TW, TK
MOM TK

Hail the kings! The striker has become 34 years old. Waiting for him in front of the strip bar near the Richmond station for 5 minutes, the king of the striker on the Thursday arrived with the golden brown uniform and talked about “What is like being 34” in his car. He says it is definitely not like young 33 year old punk. It is more like the mid thirties. Ahh.. we are now climbing up the highest moment of the life……

Ok, the game started with a cheeky goal from opponent and the striker paid back 2 goals quickly. This is the way the king lives. The devitalizing third goal from Jim essentially ended the first half silently.

Even the tight five gave them enough pressures, the opponent focused better at the last half and firing good shoots. I stopped few and missed some. Haaa… They even scored to own goal and the game has ended 4-4. out of control.. bring goggle nannas next game.. I will bring flash B… Ahh… if my legs were log enough as thefunkynanna, I could stop more gials whenever I want etc.

We finished the night near the beach and had the best burgers in the town with the corona beers as Andy suggested. Thanks for finding the lemons for the coronas Tao! I admire the men who can not drink corona without lemon. It is a memorable night with the nice sea breeze and the fun casual talk re the future life with the king of the striker as the evening goes on for the age of the empire…

score: 2-3 | goals: DC 2 | mom: DC
loc: Wesley | team: RH, DC, TK, CB, AW | opp: Forgone Conclusion

A great game against worthy opposition which ended somewhat disappointingly for a Nanna outfit which showed spirit and teamwork if not the height of their skills.

The C.O.D.E was seen to have an immediate effect with Nanna cohesion extremely tight from the outset. Positional play wasn’t as good as it should have been but the defensive work-rate was highly impressive. Forgone Conclusion were a tight unit with some fine skills and were unlucky not to open the scoring but the nannas were playing like a well oiled machine (minus some of the passing accuracy). At half time the score was 0-0 and the captain had to muster sage advice for the troops between gasps for oxygen. The second half started appallingly with all the nannas save Tom basically resigned to a goal being scored following a run from the kickoff, 3 nannas stopped to watch and almost began to walk back to the centre. Luckily the final shot lacked pace and the nannas picked up their game following the let off. There were some nice one twos and few chances with the head, the captain putting a couple of long range efforts in the right direction. The deadlock was finally broken with some great service from Takesh and nice turn from d’Coq. This was added to shortly after with another tight inside finish. The Nans were up 2 goals with a bit of breathing space but the C.O.D.E began to fray at the edges as the opposition niggles became a little less sportsmanly. The running back was getting worse and the captain was seen to stop at about half way and do a bit of spectating. It wasn’t long before FG were queing up for shots on goal as the Nannas side-coaching steadily increased in volume and abusiveness. Eventually FG started scoring and a late chance at the end for Chas could have equalised things but he laid it off to an unsuspecting and off target Coq. Final score was 3-2 which was a disappointing way to finish what was a really tight contest.

function pics

okay so here are a couple of phots from the function. still working on the vids, need some input from the administrator.

a bunch o thumbnails option, which are easy but small and kinda suck…click to see the full size image, Hinlkey do you know if it is possible to change the automatic thumbnail size, if we can do that we’re laughing… and I really think we need a wider column (does anyone have an 800 pix monitor that we care about ???)

o.k so this is the other option, it’s quite a bit more work (and could be counter productive if people don’t actually click on an image to see the bigger one thinking this is as big as it gets). instead of micro thumbnails we use 430px wide images

supperinn1.jpg 10 brown men and a lazy susan. Quail, pork hot pot, salt and pepper squid, lots of Flounder and a box of Coopers pale ale. Tom did a fine job of ordering which almost made up for asking Andy if he wanted a teeshirt with ‘tourist’ printed on it, needless to say Wal was unimpressed. Hugh took the prize for being loudest and first to be threatened with “we’ll call your mum”, though chas later won the prize for first drink spilt on self. Tao takes the prize for being in three photos, Hinkley for looking the most trashed.

Chas had to have a little lie down midway through taking everyones money (except Peter who came in for one hand and made off with $20), Controversy of the night belonged solely to Mssr Howie a) inviting a woman who was not a stripper to the nannas poker function? b) failing to punish a misdeal (when I had 2 aces you $%#^) c) declaring that suits don’t count ? and pots are split ? d) shafting Kondo when he had a flush.
Thanks: to Peter for letting a bunch of bums on the nose buffet muscle decent fee paying customers off the big table and generally rearrange the place to suit their needs: Kudos also to Chris Gill who won the Nannas Medal of Diplomacy (and Takesh for funding said diplomatic mission)
