    Shoeys only became widely popular after Daniel Ricciardo did one, that was the main trigger for putting it into popular consciousness . Prior to that it wasn't something I think most people knew about.


    And there are a million traditions for all countries that have some or part of their roots somewhere else.

    Just indulging some pantomime fist shaking in the pre Team lists lull....it's the best time as it gets swallowed up pretty quickly.

    Only in my fantasy world would the following take place. Kini scores 19 points, round 1. He’s not gonna make as much cash as we hoped. Ok whatever. The plan is to then swap Kris with Burbo and then Kris with Kini. But, Kris suffers an injury at training and won’t be available for round 2. Lucky for us, we knew early enough to backtrack on bringing in May, however, we only have enough cash to get a Sean Russell, unless we find the funds to get up to a player from Kiraz upwards. If it was that route to be taken, which mid/edge are we least confident?

    Here’s the real kicker to all of this….Seibold not only decides to name Schuster in the round 2 squad, but then completely bends us all over by deciding he should be the one to start him over Burbo because he feels that Josh will provide that x factorness that Ben cannot.


    Ok. Awake from my dream. I’m all good. Ready for tlt and a couple of wrong decisions.

    Storm giant Nelson Asofa-Solomona is a shock withdrawal from his side’s round one match against premiers Penrith at AAMI Park.

    Asofa-Solomona will be formally overlooked for the Storm’s extended squad, which will be announced on Tuesday afternoon, due to a hamstring injury.

    If his injury improves over the later part of the week, Asofa-Solomona may play for Melbourne’s feeder, Sunshine Coast Falcons, in the Queensland Cup this weekend. (Telegraph)

    So, will Kaeo Weekes be informally or formally overlooked this afternoon when he isn't named?

    I managed to be Australian & drink to excess in a wide variety of situations and locations without ever encountering it until about 10 years ago. People skulled pots, schooners, midis, cans, yard glasses etc and I'm sure the occasional person drank from their shoe but a much loved Australian tradition?

    Is this like that thing where 'You're the Voice' and 'Horses' (two songs written by a Pom and a Yank respectively) become Aussie anthems?




    Yeah I reckon I went pretty hard until about 10 years ago and never saw it, or even heard of it. It was Dan Riccardo's fault, now apparently we all drink out of our boots.

    I feel like You're the Voice was always a bit of a bogan anthem. Horses was like a popular song in about 1989 that then inexplicably became popular again about 25 years later. My preferred American cover song to become an Aussie anthem would be Torn tbh.

    Vautin maybe not the best but definitely the most iconic based on post-footy media career as well. And was actually really good at footy too.

    James Graham the best on that list. Is Ponga ranga? Phil Gould the coach.

    Star five-eighth Cameron Munster remains in some doubt for the Panthers game after re-aggravating a groin injury.

    Munster was training on Tuesday with Storm officials hopeful he will take on the Panthers.

    He didn’t undergo full training Monday.

    Not a bad list. Missed Thompson and Monaghan. I didn't mind Wallace either, and as tragic as McKinnon is surely he doesn't make this list
