Apparently Brad Ebert wasn't happy with my earlier jibe about him needing a cool nic-name, and has threatened to pull out of this weekends' game in favour of being with his wife as she gives birth. While we at Coolgardie wish the Ebert family all the best, we're hoping that Mrs Ebert can hold off until Tuesday, so that Brad can keep his mind on the game!
