Cyclone Alfred

Not Eels related, but as a Gold Coast resident, I am now buckled up and locked down for three or four days of what should be one hell of a ride.  To all the members here on the Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast and Northern NSW, stay safe. Praying the inevitable damage given the forecast is minimal. Stay safe and well, everyone. No doubt many will not be on here for some time with expected power outages. Stay strong everyone impacted,  by this one in a 50 year event. Batton down the hatches, INCOMING!

  • Stay safe to everyone up there . With my old man at Bribie I'm hoping for all your sakes it's a bit of a fizzer . But it's looking to be a bit of a belter. 

    • Shit Wiz, Bribie is about 3 inches above sea level and full of canals. I have a mate there as well. He has stocked the fridge.

"Ditto. They both have pace to burn through the middle of the ruck.
We had something similar when Gutho still had his legs at dummy half after a strong forward run and M. Jennings would run next to him and finish off during 2019-2020.

Metcalf Dragons bound.

Bulldogs have pulled out of the race for Metcalf and his asking price is around 1 million dollars. Dragons most likely spot but to get him immediately I wonder if this means they will allow Sua to join us early to free up cap space to get Metcalf…
