        Cheers Choco. Great highlights package, loved watching that. Will was a tough competitor.

            He was always like that. full of one liners. My 8 year old son asked him if Bont was training inside and Will said he'll be in there if you saw a brand new Mercedes in the car park.
            But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                Just looked at Al's Will Minson highlight package. He played some damn good games for us. Will always be remembered fondly and held in the highest esteem for the way he put the Club first.

                  I am doing a spot of skiing in Aspen (I can't afford Aspen mind, just happened to have a friend who needed to offload a package deal they won cheaply) and thought I might be in line to do a bit of celebrity spotting, because, that's just the type of guy I am.

                  Yesterday I saw (well at least I thought I did) Billy Bob Thornton walking his dog, though when I searched "Billy Bob Thornton Aspen" later in the evening online the first article I perused informed me there's a Billy Bob Thornton dead ringer who is an Aspen local, apparently he sounds like him too.

                  Anyway, on my second trip to the local grocery store within an hour I happened to bump into Big Will. If we were in Melbourne or anywhere in Australia for that matter it would be unlikely for me to approach him. Considering we were abroad however, I thought I'd say hi.

                  As others have reported over time, he was a good guy to talk to. I thanked him for and congratulated him on his career with us, we talked a little skiing shop (he boards, I won't hold it against him), he's here on his honeymoon so I congratulated him for that as well and gave him my best wishes. A few minutes later he bumped into me again and assisted me in a fruitless search for vegetable stock. I appreciated the effort, though still had to ask for store assistance to locate it (it was hidden with the soups if you're interested).

                  So, even if I don't end up spotting someone Hollywood in Aspen I still managed to spot a Bulldogs legend. Good on you Will.
                  TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

                    The world is a small place that is for sure. I would prefer to bump into a Bulldog legend than a Hollywood one anytime.
