G'day all,

We're an hour from the opening bounce of Australia's AFL grandfinal.

Perths west coast eagles playing against Melbournes collingwood magpies for the 2018 grandfinal (our version of superbowl).


Now i am a pies supporter and I wouldn't want to influence anyone, but for a bit of patriotism get behind collingwood. For the first time in afl history an American is playing in the grandfinal, Mason Cox a ruckman/forward with a great set of hands.

Pies going for their 16th premiership to equal the record for the most ever won, after finishing almost bottom of the ladder last year.

Carn the pies

Omg it’s the grand final already
 
Half time
Goal behind score
West coast: 4 3 27
Collingwood: 6 3 39
 
Cox gave us a scare, many times, and the Magpies played with precision and drill that nearly got them victory. We were playing wild and loose, missing many opportunities, but with lots of little points won in scraps that really got us there.

I’m super happy, but my Mialli “son” is a staunch Magpies fan, and he deserved a win.

Cracker of a game!
 
West coast goal with 2 minutes left in the game got them over the line!

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

I know that this thread is more than a year old but as a new member I thought I would pass along my .280AI loading.
I am shooting F Open long range rather than hunting but here is what is working for me and I have managed a 198.14 at 800 meters.
That is for 20 shots. The 14 are X's which is a 5" circle.
