EDDIE 046 - Looking Up

Been a busy little Eagle the past few weeks. Hope you've all missed ole Eddie. State of Origin time 'n all means I've again been on the job with the mighty Maroons. Mal and Mick have had me on special projects. So top secret I can't even tell my faithful readers.

I've seen some tough blokes on the field during my days, especially up in the bush around Gunnadoo way. I reckon I might have seen another in ole mate Whitey. Battling on with a split liver. I've done some damage to mine in time at the bar, but never split it. Can't wait to see Stavros back on the field soon.

Now the Eagle's also been known to break into song after a few sherbets.Well forget that whack job Lady Gaga, I hear on good authority that Lady Jude is a singstar sensation. Her groupies are encouraging her to entertain the troops at the next Magpie gathering. Should be entertaining alright if her Boss has his say in her costuming.

I reckon if those cashed up AFL aerial ping pong guys want value for money from a league convert then the Magpies have one for them. Our very own Avatar. The big guy picks that ball out of the air like plucking apples off the tree. In the old scale I reckon he stands about 6 foot 13.

The Sherrif continues to lead the Maggies up the leader board. But even with that success on the field it didn't stop the Scout outpointing him for the tidy car award. Seems that while there is plenty of attention to detail on the field, a dusty dash had him bumped of the leaderboard and the Scout crowing.

See you at bash up park Sunday for the fight for top of the table
