It is nice to see another Aussie on board. I don't post all that often but I do read lots here so it is good to see another Packer fan from Down Under. Personally this is my 10th season of supporting them and I take a wait and see attitude until about Week 4 by which time some realistic...

Re: Favres last game - 0116 (THIS SUNDAY) I hope that he comes back as I would hate to see him go this way - especially as the last game I will have of him was a loss to the bears. We aren't getting the Seattle game down under as far as I can tell at this early stage of the week. I...

I just read where Rex Grossman broke his ankle in the pre-season game and will be out for 3 - 4 months. This kid can't seem to take a trick. Have to feel sorry for him (but not the bears of course!!).

Can anyone tell me what the situation would be regarding his contract? For instance does he get docked pay because he is effectively 'suspended' from the team? In Australia he would lose his week's pay in this circumstance so I am wondering what happens over there?

Didn't TT, or Harlan, say in his interview about retiring Reggie's number that they would be retiring Brett's someday. If so then it sounds like that decision has already been made and if it hasn't then it should be.

Didn't Bidwell accept less money to go to Tampa because he wanted to play in a warmer climate that would help his kicks? I seem to remember that being discussed on the old News Chronicle board, which gave rise to a lot of Sherman bashing if I remember it correctly. Please correct me if I am...

Those of you who are able to watch this either at the scrimmage or on TV please report in detail for those of us who can't due to things like living in another country. Not NFL network Down Under unfortunately.

They have obviously worked out the problems with Rodgers as there are now reports that they have agreed to terms. Great news. Now only Bubba to go, or have I missed something there

When did Bubba sign? I have seen no mention of him signing. My understanding is that if he hasn't signed then he can't be in camp. If so then not 'everyone will be in camp'.

My thoughts when I read this was that he knew he was going to fail his physical and that was why he was talking hold-out etc. He wanted to get out of GB without people realising that he hadn't been doing the work he needed to be doing in the off-season. I am a bit of a cynic I know but that...

Having read your problems I decided to try and had absolutely no problems at all. Was in an about 2 seconds and could read everything once there. I hope you sort out your problem but my experience would suggest that it is at your end and not at the Gazette's.

Do we have the money though?

Didn't we lose big time to St Louis that year in the second round of the playoffs and Brett threw the six interceptions.

I do hope to make it to the US again one day. When I was there in 1979 my only thoughts on American Football was how can anyone play with all that rubbish on and how can you watch a game that goes for over three hours. Those thoughts changed in 1999 when I was challenged by one of my...

At least here it looks like we will be able to avoid all the idiots and be able to concentrate on the things that matter - the Packers but I will miss the old site. Hopefully everyone is here now and we will be able to continue as we were adding something to this board with their regulars...
