FORM: Stacked. The 3Ps (Piers/Pottsy/Prett) have set up a smash-and-grab assault on Halibut 2007, grabbing quality wherever it could, no doubt with promises of [I'll let your imagination fill this bit in]. Still, these are three of my favourite guys (along with the people they've recruited) so good luck to them. I think their smaller number will actually benefit them over Mind the Gap in terms of coming together as a combination.
Pity about the name though. There are both better Queen albums to be named after, and better Marx Brothers movies to name your Queen album after. Pottsy as Brian May? I think not, although Piers and Brett could pass for young John Deacons and Roger Taylors. The album does feature 'Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy' though – a cheeky reference to Brett abandoning his UQ pals?
As far as the movie goes - although well received, many Marx fans consider this motion picture the beginning of the Brothers' decline. Still, as Jonathan notes, "Either he's dead or my watch has stopped" remains a great line.
Perhaps A Night at the Opera next time?
PARTY: You already know that Pottsy and Piers are on this team, but they have also gained a few dodgy imports.
TIP: 1st, but as much because I've boxed myself into a corner as anything else. Anyone can win this tournament, and this lot will give it a big shake. "We Are the Champions" indeed.
ps Shout out to GH and HM, for their kind words about the blog.

This team won't win the party, because they'll be worried about winning the tournament, which the won't win anyway.
