Did anyone pick up the comedy at the interchange in fourth quarter? At one stage we only had 17 players on the field. Now I'm not a smart person but when one player comes off one goes on. The guy who "holds them back" had to be shown that we had five on the bench. It was at that stage that he reluctantly let our 18th player to take his place on the field. Maybe the players should be told to have their socks down when they come off and socks up when the come on.

I thought that the yellow Post It notes was the best system.

Wasn't that brilliant decision-making by Eyebrows and his Lapdog?

I saw that Dart. It might have been Farmer who came off first with a couple of others and had to go back on.

At that stage there were too many players wanting to come off the ground, with not enough to replace them. Eventually, after some yelling, Farmer came back on.

We've been smashed on the interchange all year.

Bring back the biomechanistic.

Yeah I remember the commentators on the radio were going on a bit about how Jeffrey was yelling something back at the bench just before he came back on. Didn't mention that we only had 17 on the field though.

Being an Olympic year I have recently taken an interest in some of the less popular world sports - table tennis, badminton, equestrian and yes, even hockey. I note they have a rather nifty interchange system. A player waiting to come on holds up what looks like a table tennis paddle with a number on it which, lo and behold, carries the number of the player who they want to swap with. When the player comes off they give them the paddle.

Could save us a lot of problems.

Talk about over complicating things. You give them just enough sticks for the players on the ground and you swap when you run on and off. If someone doesn't have a stick then they're not supposed to be there.

I can't believe they have time outs in ping pong. It's the Olympics, surely they could just wheel the beer fridge closer to the table.

I can't believe they have trampolining at the Olympics. Do you think they put the sprinkler on underneath it when it's really hot? Do they have someone at the side to hose away the vomit when a competitor has had too much red creaming soda?

I'm not a doctor but I'm pretty sure red creaming soda is performance enhancing.

Only until tea time, then it's a hysteria agent.

Mmmmm, red creaming soda, is there anything it can't do?

It would make our 17 players play like 70. For a few seconds, at least.

i would prefer harvey to drink that in the coaches box than coke.

or what about good old fashioned sarsparalla. dencorub in a can.

Mmmmm, Dencorub, is there anything . . . oh, sorry, got carried away there for a moment.

Now where was that sarsparalla?

Did anyone grow up with Dandelion and Burdock? Liquid vegemite with bubbles. God knows how many Dandelions died to make each bottle. I never even thought to ask what the hell Burdock was. Prolly just as well.

The Dencorub in a can sounds like a better option, I had terrible sinus problems as a lad.

Drubbing, it may be too late to tell you this, but the old folk name for dandelions is p*ss-a-bed. It's a diuretic. Plastic sheets time.

I think you can still get Dandelion and Burdock. You still get it in the UK anyway. Along with Irn Bru. Made out of steel girders apparently. Good mixed with Vodka.
