Well tipsters, the brass monkeys have been dropping their balls all over town this week but don't let that put you off a trip to Ballarat this weekend. What better way to spend a chilly Sunday afternoon than tasting some of the regions best food and wine at the Ballarat Provincial Pleasures on this Sunday. See chefs Adrian Richardson (La Luna) and Damien Jones (Lydiard Wine Bar) prepare some tiptop dishes, whilst Johnno will be running a couple of "Wine without the BS" masterclasses. Come and say g'day to us all at the MH stand and try the latest release Sangio or warm your cockles with a glass of our Rutherglen Muscat. See you there!
Check it out here.
Speaking of chilly balls, what a ball buster of a start to Round 8 as first plays second at the G on Friday night. Collingwood are coming off the bye and only a third of the teams coming off the bye have won. Bartel, Selwood et al will be charging through the centre and if anyone is going to stop this Magpie train, the Cats are it. Saturday afternoon sees the first of the "knockout" games, for the coaches that is... Dean Bailey leads the way, but Vossy, Neil Craig and Primus are hot on his heels. The Dees stepped it up a notch last week showing some improved form on the field but scoring a rap on the knuckles for some quality Twitter banter. They meet up with Roos and its a tough one to call.
The Suns head back to AAMI stadium again this week where they knocked off Port a few weeks ago. They're up against a desperate Crows outfit who should win, but who can predict what those tweens from the North can do.
Vossy and Hirdy shared a Brownlow 15 years ago but I think Hird will have the measure in this game on Saturday night. The meggsy Lions' coach must be pretty edgy to get his skipper back on the ground and notch up his first win for the year.
The Swannies are kicking the pill around very nicely at the moment and should account for Port easily enough at home in Sydney town on Saturday night.
In the early 90's it was Plugger V Dunstall, these days it's Roo V Buddy. The Hawks are flying along at the moment but it could very well be time for the Saints to step up and show some of their recent finals form.
How good is it to see the Tiges finally winning a couple of games?? They could score themselves another decent scalp on Sunday arvo when they clash with the Doggies. And finally, it's a Western Derby to wrap up the round as the Weagles take on the Wharfies on Sunday night.
Good luck tipsters and get on down to the Ballarat Mining Exchange on Sunday for a drink and taste of some top nosh!
Cheers, Lis, Mitch, Johnno & Shan
