Interesting take….. Maybe we need bigger stronger riders? You wouldn’t have a 175lb guy as a defensive lineman in the NFL (he would get hurt pretty quick). Some guys may not be physically built for this sport!

By absolutely no means am I a profesional, but I've been told by a good friend who is an unbelievably talented PT doctor who specializes in injury prevention, that "strength" doesn't necessarily reduce an injury. This of course isn't the case where they need strength to wrestle a bucking bike back into line. I feel I grew up with the understanding that a lot of muscle would keep me safer if I wadded it on two wheels, but that generally isn't the case.

I thought coolabah was a flagon of woobla?

WTF is "Woobla"?

Sounds like a Sandgroper thing. You mob are weird......... 😁

Now, when people mention Coolabah, besides the Banjo Paterson Poem / Song, I get that horrible earworm from the bloody Coolabah Cask / Goonbag wine that came out in the 70s : "Where Will You Hide Your Coolabah?" .

Cheap Plonk that  got a Lot under the table, for bugger all. It still exists today, but, even an 'unsophisticate' such as I, has moved on to better drops.

Well before Camelbacks and their ilk, you'd drag a Goonbag out of the box, flush it out, fill it with 'whatever' and put it in a back pack or jacket pouch. Goonbags, are damned near indestructible. Cripes, I've used them for extra fuel capacity at times, way back when.

For you Foreigners : "Goonbag" entomology : it's a diminution  (though, typically Aussie, it's longer than the original) of Flagon  - it's Not associated with bloody racism.

This series is beginning to suck. Sexton and Webb battling it out isn't really my cup of tea. 

Big meeting at NBC this week, the higher up is demanding that the broadcast team pour on the energy even harder to keep people stoked. The inflection is going to 11 and even JT is joining in. RC is testing out another half octave in pitch when he opens his sentences and they're brainstorming on some new Rickyisms to get the people going. We already got the return of cat-bird seat(tm) last week, this week they're dropping something even sicker.

Double suck if you are a Lawrence nut hugger I would imagine.

Sad. So many good riders hurt. It was shaping up to be a fun SX season.

With both of the boys sidelined, expect to see a Hills hoist with some goon bags hanging from it as a major attraction in the Lawrence Fan Zone at upcoming events. It really does make sense and will do enormous things for them.

Put Ferrandis on the bike, get him excited to be factory again and building momentum for the outdoors. 

Dean Wilson was on a factory bike for years and didn’t have many results to show for it. 

You can be one of the those “Dean is great for marketing!” people but we’re fans of racing…. Who gives a shit

I called it. Everyone needs some free time to do oil changes on the new car collection and remodel the garage to make room for the boat.
I know! I get it!  Definitely no time to manage that if you’re not hurt.

Pardon me for sharing knowledge.. one of the only things that’s worth being rich for is time to hang out with your dogs. And make a mind bending garage.
Again, you can’t do that if you’re not hurt. 
Not at factory level. Not this sport.

Last week was an instant classic, "Discarded him faster than the duece of clubs".😅
