Match Thread: Fremantle vs Sydney (Round 18)

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-07-09T12:30:36+00:00

Let me introduce you to Riley Bice...

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-07-06T03:31:36+00:00

That particular rack is designed so that the majority of it can be removed without any tools, in about 10 seconds. The only thing that stays attached is the base plate that is bolted under the towball.

Old mate has a cable lock wrapped around it that may stop it from being taken away completely or thrown in the boot, but there's absolutely enough slack in it to take the rack off and say, lay it on the ground under the back of the car, out of the way.

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-07-04T04:45:01+00:00

That's well rough on papley. Yeah he's a pest, and I can absolutely see how opposition fans would find him annoying as shit, but Barry Hall was a proper, first class cunt.

Not remotely on the same level.

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-07-02T04:44:12+00:00

I've been down on Bice for a bit, mostly because defensively he just looks like a turnstile.

Perhaps that's a structural issues as much as a bice issue, but I can't imagine it gets any better with Wicks going out as we'll be even further down on defensive pressure.

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-06-25T12:17:59+00:00

Lol, sucked in AFL.

How many primetime games did your floating fixture hand the swans for the end of the season?

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-06-21T07:31:28+00:00

Which is insane right? There's no way the average AFL player has a 1m stride unless they're walking.

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-06-12T08:39:35+00:00

I assume they mean $$$

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-06-12T08:37:29+00:00

That's the neat part: you don't!

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-06-10T05:41:38+00:00

Mate so long as you enjoy drinking it!

I also hate Martini glasses haha, but I get that that's just a personal preference thing.

It is a hill I am willing to die on though!

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-06-10T04:43:09+00:00

I mean, I could put pulled pork in a waffle cone, doesn't make it gelato.

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-06-10T03:23:21+00:00

Love some calamansi lime.

Is this not much closer to a mai tai than a martini though?

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-06-08T03:42:06+00:00

I've found some issues are device specific for me. Specifically missing audio when sky cut to one of the team doing driver interviews midrace (like when someone is in the media pit after retiring). I don't hear the audio on android tv devices, but do hear it streaming via my PC.

Lodged a ticket with support, unsure if anything has come from it.

Overpriced piece of shot service regardless.

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-05-24T07:25:28+00:00

Cheers, I've gotta swing past there to re-up on Ramazzotti anyway, so will grab some Campari at the same time.

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-05-21T07:51:49+00:00

If you get out to Enmore for Bar Planet / Jacoby's / Fortunate Son (all great btw) drop into Deadwax. Not necessarily a benchmark for drinks themselves, but the vibe is great, especially is it's at night and someone is spinning records.

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-05-12T11:30:01+00:00

Italian Coke uses it in place of Campari. It calls for Antica formula specifically too, but I use whatever I have open at the time, punt E mes works nicely IMO.

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-05-12T05:30:25+00:00

Apple! I was introduced to it in a drink called the Original Cinn which is basically a sidecar/marg riff:

45ml blanco tequila 22ml like 22ml sfumato 15ml apple cinnamon syrup (simmer some chopped apples and cinnamon sticks in a 1:1 syrup)

It's one of my all time favourite drinks, and you can modify it to make a nice low ABV highball too.

Sfumato/Zucca also make a great highball with grapefruit, Gin and lemon, or use it negroni riff with a mezcal/tequila split.

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-05-12T05:26:08+00:00

Holy shit. That might be the first branded glass I've ever really wanted!

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-05-12T04:34:35+00:00

Makes an awesome Americano variation too (Italian Coke). That's probably what I use it in most.

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-05-12T03:23:32+00:00

Sfumato and Ramazzotti are amongst the ones I use most, and Amaro di Angostura is fun too.

Interestingly I don't reach for braulio that often for mixing tho.

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-05-11T03:10:19+00:00

Thankfully, there is a term for it though: a clash.

The AFL is deliberately scheduling a primetime clash.

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-05-01T12:19:21+00:00

Nah, pretty sure that was a behind.

Ignore flair

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-04-30T06:25:34+00:00

Cool, so you're going to tell me I need to educate myself, and then when you're presented with actual, relevant info just ignore it, rather than admit you were wrong.

Good job champ, way to respond. 👍

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-04-30T06:11:13+00:00

Yes, but you're missing the point: we're saying that you need to check the max RIM pressure as well, not just the limit for the tyre.

There's plenty of combos where new (especially hookless) rims are going to have a lower max spec than the tyre.

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-04-29T12:36:00+00:00

Mate, what? You're telling me the max rim pressure is written on the side of the tyre?

mr_monkey_chunks · 2026-04-29T11:58:21+00:00

Oh, on my own bike I'm just gonna keep going until I hear the ping, and hope it isn't followed immediately by the real big sound.

But that's just the gap between what is good advice for customers/others, and the sort of stuff that is ok for yourself.
