Head and heart say Bunny's but unfortunately I've had to tip the Dogs cause I'm trying to beat a mate in the tipping comp(we are tied at the moment, there's a case of beer on it ) so it will be a mixed feelings Grand Final for me.

Hopefully the bunnies.

Farkin bulldogs are grubs, but at least their queen grub is watching from the sidelines with a broken foot. Think that's called karma or something.

And yeah Inglis is a champ on all counts. Was reading a story the other day on how he partnered someone's daughter to her formal too because she was being bullied and had no date. But not only a top bloke, he's a bloody machine!

Yep I saw a pik of him hanging out at a hospital (?) with a kid who appeared wheelchair bound. Inglis had the biggest smile on his face, and I think the kid was just in awe. That kid will remember that moment for the rest of his life. Brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it

GO YOU RABBITS!

^^^ I love listening to Alan Kohler, wasn't happy when his show on Sunday's was taken off air by the ABC.

I've pretty much resigned to the fact I'm gonna be working till I'm 75 (I'm 50 now).

Our strategy is ;

#1; pay off mortgage which we've done.

#2; live a little and enjoy life with the kids while their young.

#3; dump as much money into super and other investments.

And hopefully we'll be reasonably comfortable .

Kohler had a great column recently on how if super funds actually returned a proper rate to their members (compared to other investments) and weren't thieving cnuts (slight paraphrasing) with their fees then the average aussie would retire a multi-millionaire based on 9% superannuation contributions.
