Sorry team, I wont be able to make the friendly on Sunday. Taking daughter to the footy. She wants to see the Doggies rip the Lions apart.

Good luck and enjoy

Hi G mate can you make this game if not we can rearrange for another time and date. Sunday 13th June THE REMARKABLES v australia 14.00(nsw)

Hi Mac,
Doesnt look like we can get a team together mate - sorry

To all the Australian Team:

I have to inform you that I will not be a part of this team proper for the next season, whilst I have enjoyed playing with you all I really need to scale back the amount of poker I am currently playing. I also anticipate moving on before Christmas and as such will no longer be available anyway.

However I will play as a sub if you are desperate and I'm around - so I will keep an eye on this thread.

Wishing you all the luck in the world for next season, please give your new Captain all the support you gave me - its been an absolute pleasure - AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!!!!

I do understand where your coming from G. I have been thinking the same thing. This might be my last couple of games as a member of this team too.

I will say from here that you have been a stellar captain of team Australia mate and the work that you put into this league from day 1 has been nothing short of fantastic.

Thank You

I echo Swamps (thats normal) words Graham, you have done a wonderful job organising all of that, and to give up your time to set it all in place, and try to make a fun time for the people of this site is truly fabulous. Well done hun.

I would like to apologise to you and the team, for hardly ever being available and feel I let you all down, after all the hard work and effort you put in...for that I am sorry.

The time difference is always going to make it difficult for us aussies. But we don't need to win to prove that we are a mighty fine bunch of people, and lucky to live in our beautiful country. (90% of the time anyway..) oi oi oi..

Thankyou very much Graham, and I wish you all the very best in the future, and hope to see you around the tables. (so you can steal more chips off me..grrr!!) Bon Voyage!! once the salt gets in your veins you can't get it out..

xxxx

Dimpydoooo, you have let no one down. Like all of us, we play if time permits. Family and work always come 1st, no ifs...no buts. i do agree that the time zone makes it hard for us Aussies but I like to think of it this way. We wake early and have a coffee or 15 then play our adversaries who just happen to be at the end of a long and (hopefully) tiring day. lol

Damn that work has to come 1st..I would put it last, but that don't pay the bills.

Thankyou Swampstar ..you are my shining star...my knight in black (tight) leather...:-))

(umm...maybe I get into trouble for writing this in wrong thread...but were do you say thanks to a great aussie bunch...thanx guys.)

Hmm, I'm not happy Jan - all this talk of people not playin - I know I don't make the tables very often but I love the tournaments cos I get to play with you guys.

G, I agree - you have done a great job as Captain and player - hope your dream of a lazy seafaring life comes to fruition m8 - it sounds great (but hell, I'm really jealous!!!).

Now - this game tomorrow night - yes I can play BUT I am yet to play on a winning team in a tournament either for Oz or for the Pokertiers, despite being the last Pokertier standing nearly everytime I played! And the Pokertiers went from top of ladder to bottom after I started!!!

Um, I might be a jinx - but shit, I can live with it if you can - hehehe

and finally - Dimps - xxxxxxx

Hi Graham

nonplussed

Graham, i can only echo the comments of the rest of the team.

You've done a fantastic job and you're a bloody good bloke to boot.

I 'm hoping the future brings to u all you can wish for

Take care m8

Cheers

Les

Oops, just realized I have visitors on Saturday night so I shouldn't be playing - but if you can't raise a team I'll see what I can do.

Well said Les.

Good luck

Looks like me and you Dimps - hope Dragan or Dicki can play - need 3 at least.

Well done guys and gal. Fantastic way to end season. Woo Hoo

Dimps...way to go. Excellent job.

Graham,

I,m sorry to hear you wont be playing anymore, i echo your teams sentiments , you were a great help to me and USA2 when the WCM began. I applaud all the Aussies for hanging in there and playing at some god awful hours, i,m not sure i would be able to get up just to play a game on here on a Saturday morning.Team USA2 wishes you all the best in whatever new adventure life takes you on and always know you will be missed by many on this site..
