It’s a pretty interesting setup

The Warriors are staying in a hotel that is about a block away from the Sydney Olympic Stadium.


From our hotel room, there’s a view of the indoor pool used in the Sydney Olympics.

    veggie-mite: Vegemite as we aussies know it as is a yeast extract spread originally used to flavour gravies and stocks as it is very salty. It is most commonly used spread thinly on bread with lots of butter.

    Thanks UH Booster for the vids.
    Hmmmm…they are both punters.
    Stan kicks both right and left foot.
    Both will be freshmen, I presume.
    Maybe they can play other positions.
    Time will tell.
    Is it Friday 4pm yet?


  14. Ipu Man August 23, 2016 12:00 pm

    If North Korea gonna attack Hawaii, that would be a good time.
    We can mop ’em up after the game…

    I will wait and see on Stan Gaudion….. he is no where near another scott harding. left foot looked weak and not near as strong as his right foot. right foot kicks did not look to get the bounce and roll as harding’s did. he may look the part but…..

    Guessing these two Aussies have made the NCAA cut? Hoping that Hendrie gets the green light and there will be a trifecta of Aussie Ballers!


  17. Jonj August 23, 2016 12:42 pm

    Scholarship players or walkons


  18. z August 23, 2016 3:52 pm

    Aussie rules players?

    ” The Jacksonville Jaguars announced Tuesday morning that they’ve signed RB Cameron Marshall to a contract and placed rookie QB Max Wittek on waivers.”

    Nikki Taylor out with left elbow injury. Add her to injury list with Mitchem, Greeley recovering and Castillo was out for awhile.

    Jeezy33… from last blog… I misinterpreted your post on another site and thought “beast” meant very large fellow.


  22. 3-Prong August 24, 2016 3:46 am

    So Hendrie is here but we are waiting if he can also play?

    Jacket wearing rainy day touring today.VB Is a nice easy drinking beer. And there are a heck of a lot of Chinese in Sydney! Harbor tour tomorrow. Maybe an original meat pie? …and More Aussie Brewz!


  23. 3-Prong August 24, 2016 3:56 am

    Heard this one from the tour driver today. Two of the main beaches around these parts, but not particularly close to each other are Bondi (which we saw today) and Manley. If someone says to you, You have a “Bondi” chest, don’t take it as a compliment, because it is far from Manley… hehe

    Practice cancelled for today due to rain forecast, per G Dickman.

    Reno Gazette Journal story about Rolo wanting to bring back pride to the program…

    “I’m ready to go,” Rolovich said. “I want to see what this team is going to be. I can’t wait for the first sense of adversity to come. I want to see if this team has made any improvement or will they instinctually go to a point of blame and finger pointing and stuff like that. Has the selfishness washed away? Has the togetherness been built so we can weather some of that adversity?”

    Two mo dayz!

    Noticed ticket prices to the game is quite reasonable ranging from 50-150 bucks for premium seating. I’m guessing attendance will be somewhere in the 50, 000 plus range. Also, noticed a Costco in the vicinal area of the stadium. So, you can buy vegemite in bulk if needed!
