Sportscast Raiders I like it!!
I have no doubt some of the raiders will be putting down big numbers on the court, with a bit of luck we'll uncover the new Danny!!
The other great thing is that ye will get to see every ZZiplex ever made courtesy of Paddy!!!
We might try have your club day on the 25th of this Month if that suits?
Will try confirm today / tomorrow!
Blue n White is the new Black!!!

hey paddy i recon we ought to run a casting day plus tuition for clubs from the top of the sugarloaf if that was hugely successful and there's no reason why not, we could then stage an international event from the top of carrantuohill, imagine the distances!and there are brilliant winds at high altitude i recon we could generate massive interest from the worlds big hitters andrew could possibly go 1000 meters before the reel and rod were wrenched from his arms... records would be broken all over the place although i presume that every lead would need to be loaded with high explosives which detonate on impact so distances can be accurately measured just imagine, 'crackoffs' crackoffs would travel several miles.........and be records in themselves!! we will have to get the local authorities to clear the area of hill walkers and sheep etc and arrange neccessary insurance but i can't see that being a real problem

eric would definately hit 200 from the top of the sugar loaf although the recoil when the line runs out might also wrench his arms from their sockets!!

yeah we could have some hungry geezer with big mouth wide open at 180 meters and then every 10 meters thereafter
recon they'd have some moon-struck look in their eyes after a piping big mac and chips was delivered strait into their gob doing 200miles an hour
