Drunk on a ladder Round 23

Two weeks back I totally mozzed Logger, virtually handing him both the PunchDrunk cup and the DreamTeam championship. Sorry Andy. Last week I tried it with Tassy, but he just swatted it aside, with a haughty 'I defy your mozz'. He was just too strong.
Still this is the final round, the traditional stumbling-block for many a Drunk. Games don't go according to plan, the footy gods are merciless. Can Logger, Jesper or Alex pull the right lever? We'll all know in a matter of days.
I'm heading to in-law-land NZ tomorrow, I'll miss everything, but good luck to all.

PUNCHDRUNK PIE NIGHT and PRIZE-GIVING

This once-a-lifetime experience will be even bigger and better than last year's version. Don't miss it.
Date: Thursday September 29, that's the thursday before the Grand Final.
Place: TBA, probably no surprises.

Well blow me down. Last week there was almost no way Logger was not going to win this thing. Now Jim's Cheesies have hit him high and hard and he's gooorn!
That leaves the 2 past League of Drunks winners, The Chimps and the Cheesies to battle out the big one. My plan for the Chimps has misfired somewhat with a whole bunch of late season injuries and suspensions and bereft of trade options. And an ill-timed trip to NZ just before the teams are announced. Excuses, excuses. Looking like back-to-backs for Jimmy from Cheesetown.

And down here? Yes there is life on Mars, but it's a lower form of life. It's Derek up against Alex. All the best martians.

Drunk on a ladder. R 22.

Sorry to be late, and brief here. This is all quite full of importance after all. Tassy Kontogianapopoloutzious, the man with the longest name in fotballshowbizness, come on down. He rolled the dice with his own Swannies and came up smelling of roses. Hell, he probably didn't even realise he was rolling dices.... (I rolled the dice with my Demons and fucked myself in the arse. Quite a feat if you can do it. Half pleasant also). Tassy then scooped the Chokito outa the pool aith the Tiges to go screaming to the lead like one of those Mardi Gras drag queens he models himself on.
I gotta go home now, but Tassy congrats mate. It's gonna take a big man....
2 eights too, Tassy at the top of the table, and Harv at the bottom.

And then there were 4.
The Brennas smack the Demonskis, The Cheesies did what they should have against the JCEs.
How will the bye affect the Chimps and the Loggers? Well I can tell you the Chimps are in all sorts with a couple of biggish names out for the season, and a bare cupboard of trades.

And downstairs? The Whatakerfuffles may protest lack of interest, but thay're still in the (minor) hunt against creatr. NWS and Ovaries. Go figure.

We got ourselve's a party....

OMG! (which I believe is Young-People talk for Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Garden, or some-such) there's a party goin' on.
Just when it looked like Jesper and Tassy were heading for an intimate encounter... two men locked alone in a room, bring your own baby oil... we now have a menage a trois. And more than that there are others knocking on the door.... We got a love-in.

Yes, Andy Lobby "Logger" Lloyd, lascivious Lothario of the lens, lilly-livered lover of long-legged ladies with lime lollypops, has lurched to a late lead. And he's also looking the goods in the League of Drunks too. Not bad for his first year.
When he arrived on the scene at season's beginning, of course he was welcomed with customary PunchDrunk warmth and affection. A new brother bearing $60 - One of us.
Logger, what the fuck are you doing mate? The idea was you put money in. Not take it out.
Only joking. Of course. Anyway there are still 3 rounds to go, several each-way bets coming up, and the party is only just beginning.

These days success is found in the least likely places. As is his wont Dirk has once again come through with his customary 'kickin' against the wind' perfect solo 8, taking home a nice slab of cash. I'll work out how much when I get a chance. Just like Dean Bailey, Dirk has a game-plan and he sticks to it. Respect. And bucks.

A small side contest in the Drunk this year is seeing which of our many Tiges supporters finishes in 9th spot... likely contestants this year are Dickwad (8th), Sean 'Catfish' Cox (11th), Juzzy 'the Devil' (12th) and Brenna (14th).

Anyway enough slander.... Let's party...


Not sure what happened to the lip-sync there...
