    When talking to Bevo he told me he was very unhappy when given the flick from the doggies as a player.He said the recruitment of Romero meant there was no room on the list for him. He said he felt he was just starting to play his best footy.....then we were interrupted by the CEO and he had to give a speech.

    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    Yeah it would look good in a professional cycling team in the TDF I think. Much better than some of the teams that race that is for sure. There are teams with brown and teal with polka dots, and some horrid colours.

    The only problem is that it's a little bit similar to U.S. Postal of Lance Armstrong fame.

    Quite a few AFL clubs took this week off, whilst we're on the Great Ocean Road as a big group with Tour De France cyclists working hard and bonding with the new guys. Just another little inch in advance of a number of our opponents.


    Love it.

    Heard Guy McKenna on SEN yesterday morning talk about when Chris Judd first started at WC.. Said that whilst everyone was on Xmas break Judd would be working the hardest as he knew everyone else would be slacking off and he knew he could get an advantage on the rest of the competition.. Scott West & Matthew Boyd (amongst others) live by this philosphy too.

    Westy's old quote - "it's easier to stay fit than get fit"

    When the boys used to head from WO to Skinner West used to treat it as a time trial and run there as fast as he could. Absolute freak.

    He couldn't sleep after being runner up in the Brownlow so got his push bike out in the middle of the night and rode from Keilor to Hanging Rock to the Shrine.

    Horrible to read of the homes lost to bushfires in the Lorne/Wye River area today - a cruel Christmas for many families.

    Quite eerie looking back at those cycling photos from earlier in the week, must've been pretty much where the fires hit.

    For many years when I was young we used to holiday in Wye River. We would spend nearly all on December and January there plus most other school holidays. Fond memories of many of the area's that have been subjected to these bush fires.

    Heard a story of the new owner of the Lorne Foodworks giving the keys to the store to the fire brigade and telling them to help themselves to anything they need. What an absolute champion. He then got a $500 dollar award for his generosity and donated that the the fire brigade as well. We should all shop there if in Lorne

    Can anyone help me with the training times for this week and next week? The Club's website page on preseason training is vague and perhaps not up to date.
