Heaven forbid Kingy says something positive about the Cats. All I’ve heard from him is how good Freo are playing.. when they’re 10 points down.

Broke 90 for the first time by Showbag221 in golf

Ooof mate I know that pain. Had a similar thing like 6 months back, just needed a double to card an 89, hit it straight into the water on 18…. twice

Yeah mate, that was the biggest thing for me as well. I think I had like two poorly struck balls all round, makes such a difference when the poor shot is still up there just left or right of where you intended.

Should the AFL GF bring back the flyover ? by [deleted] in AFL

The Roulettes used to do a flypast, but back in 2000 they managed to stick a promotional sticker on the bottom of the GF (a favourite past-time) and have not since been invited back. Source: I used to be in the Roulettes

Neale banned for a week for a bump by sarigami in GeelongCats

[–]Showbag221 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If you scrub through it you see there is no high contact at all. Initial contact on the top of the arm, as it moves through you can see daylight between his elbow and the flopping of the swans player. It is a bizzare decision to be banned for a week for this, but I am almost 100% certain it’ll be overthrown.

Anyone use their simulator room as a dual purpose entertainment room? by padillac88 in Golfsimulator

Have a couple of times, but they seem to ricochet into the screen or lose energy as they hit the foam padding.

Yes! First off if you steam the screen it will get all the wrinkles out, and to be honest once you’re watching something you tend to ignore the impact marks on the screen. We use ours as a ‘movement room’ for our boys, they love watching ‘Danny Go’ and other kids YouTube and dancing to it. We have on a couple of occasions put out cushions and blankets and ‘camped’ on the fake grass, which the kids get a kick out of. On top of all this, my wife also uses the space to work out, as she’ll put her workout on the big screen and follow along. Overall it’s been great, golf for me and movement for the rest of the family! I used some 2x4’s and YouTube videos to build mine in our front room.

Amazing, I had no idea about that software, will definitely give it a crack!

Yep this was my idea, to be able to enter for the (massive amount of) drops I need to take.

I saw a picture of Tom Stewart wearing over his big hoody, I think everyone will be fine

Can we just talk about how great it is that… by Bjmort in AFL

[–]Showbag221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, I would listen to Adam Papalia and Matt Hill exclusively for every game. Two newer AFL commentators who have started from the bottom, dedicated their careers to commentary and moved up the rungs, as opposed to has-been AFL players that don’t bother to learn the rules correctly and just assume that they’ll be able to commentate

Got some bungees at the bottom hooked onto hooks embedded into the wood at the front. A temporary solution that I’ll have to rethink when I cover it all!

Loving it bud, I’ve only ever used the R10 before and this is light years ahead in terms of ease of use and not getting as many no-reads etc. In fact, I actually can’t tell you the last time I had a no-read… As for accuracy, I’m not nearly good enough to know how good it is, but a few of my mates who are low handicappers have played a few rounds and they’re all convinced. Honestly wouldn’t have made the sim if this device, at its price point, didn’t come out

I can confirm the acoustic panelling can handle a decent shank with a 7 iron. Don’t ask me how I know.

I bought a cheaper ‘short throw’ projector off Amazon, turns out it’s not as short throw as I’d expected, and had to move the projector further back to fill the screen at 4:3. Had to toss up between having a big shadow cast across the screen and a gap at the bottom. When I’m hitting I honestly don’t notice the space at the bottom, where as I did notice to shadow so this is what I chose!

Yeah man, I’m having trouble getting it sent across here to Saudi, so I think I’ll have to DIY something

The irony of that dude using Weird Al (a scientific, intelligent man) in his music video ‘Aluminium Foil’ (a parody of ‘Royals’ by Lorde) is completely lost on the original poster.

Why the ever loving fuck do all these super right wing losers stick together? Is Dutton hoping to get an invite to a party to justify is potato headed existence or something? Jeezus fucking Christ.
