A pie with sauce floating in a bowl of boiled pea snot. Forty seven years after first seeing one, even the mere thought of consuming such a delicacy still gives me the horrors.
Apparently they are the admiration of the nation TM

I am expecting Carro to ask the question of Balmey's tenure to Peggy O'Neal when she is a guest on 3AW today

Why would he want to go and try to save another club at 68?

Because it is in his blood to do it. He reminds me of Tom Hafey. Guys who do what they do for the game because they love it, pure and simple. They don't care about money, or accolades or anything else. They do it because they want to.

I don't know Balme, but he reminds me of my father. Loves his job and the challenges it throws up. Balme might well be bored ar Richmond now.

And let's face it. There is no bigger challenge in footy right now than ressurecting the Crows.

Nothing on Balmey, Matthew Lloyd and Tim Lane too fixated on inappropriate touching and our Covid breaches

Unusual to be taking on a job of this magnitude at 68 unless you’re a US president candidate

Used to coach Norwood, also married to an SA lady I think.
Crows are going hard for him.
Have heard plenty about him going to Crows.
Ricciuto alludded to "some excellent news in the off season" recently.

Talking to a mate this morning, nephew will be a coach at Adelaide this year, said it was nearly a done deal. Hope he is wrong and only bullshiting just to stir me up but sounded pretty confident. Don't shot the messenger!

I have consumed just one Floater.
I was inebriated at the time but even then I found the experience unrewarding and unsatisfying.
The Floater doesn't even come close to holding a candle to a souva or a kebab!

When I start to think about how *smile* up Victoria is due to those cabbages running the show, and how long it will be (if ever) until we get back to some sort of prosperity. ... I wouldn't blame him for thinking this'll be a great change.

Been giving a bit of thought to fleeing myself in the next few years... maybe somewhere more exotic than Adelaide tho:cool:

We’ll accept tiger refugees in Darwin no worries. I’ll organise Joel Bowden to meet you all at the airport and allocate mangrove front condos to all. We’re living the dream up here.

That's the point of a pie floater. You are supposed to be inebriated. South Australians only consume these when very drunk.

It is the greatest known hangover stopper.

That said, I love a good souvlaki. :cool:

I found that one of the best hangover stoppers/reducers was a technicolour yodel down the porcelain portal
