Hey you all - I am here on the Gold Coast in Aussie and the lads have started filing in for the show!
Vince Taylor looks like he hasnt aged one litttle bit, and looks vascular and like the Vince we all loved. Francios Benafatto is amped and hyper about the show (a little too hyper if you ask me), so much so in the lobby of the hotel yesterday he stripped down for all to see and did a poseing exihbition for the guys, and his misses got pissed and stormed off!!!
Branch has rolled in and looks well - like Branch, he will be hard and tuff to beat. My boy Priesty is ready, we have been training here for a week now and he is getting tighter and tighter but staying as full as a house, he is going to aim at coming in at around 204 lb very full and big and hard.
Kris Dim looks good but not imposing clothed but will be a threat come sunday, and big John Davie is weighing around 128kg!! and absolutly shredded and will be a giant. Ronnie Rockwell hasnt arrived yet but he will be my dark horse in all this, in all there will be 20 odd guys and the venue is well lets say probibly the best venue in the world , it is amazing , this should be a excellent show , as the mind games between the guys have already started !!!
Regards Hrdcor

awesome update. Keep us posted!
-
If the show is to be judged fairly it will go like this
1. Branch
2. Rockel
3. Priest
In reality though it will go like this
1. Priest
2. Branch
3. Rockel
-
I agree with the last post, the hometown advantage will definetly help priest UNFAIRLY get 1st.
We all know Branch is way better.
-
Hope Rockel looks good-sweet if he could win a show.
-
Just saw Vince Taylor and had a talk with him , he is very relaxed and happy with his condition, he had a sleveless shirt on and I gotta tell you he has still the arms of old ,he could be a dark horse here , he certantly shows no sighn of his age. Ronnie Rockwell has arrived and looks drawn in the face, so has Mustava arrived after spending 3 days to get here due to him not organising a Visa to get into the country so they detained him and confiscated all his food, poor management or just bad luck you decide !!!Milos is here helping out so it should be intresting with him and Mustava ???
I will keep you posteded over the next few days of any goss and happenings
Regards Hrdcor !!!

Everybody is here safely (Mustafa included)
-
Hmm, branch looks exceedingly good. Its his show to lose.
-
Hmm.. I'm feeling an itch to go watch this contest.
-
Dam i wish it was in Melbourne this year again. :'( Looks like it will be an awesome show. Even more disappointing considering how poor last years line up was. Well TD did redeem himself by getting Ronnie downunder

Thanks for the update Hrdcor

What the hell are you talking about??? Wait until you see what everyone shows up like.. HOW are you judging the show before it even happens.
So RELAX and wait to see the physiques as they come in.. hahaha
-
Being a fan of many of the pros on that stage, I'd like to see Vince crack the top 3 - possibly even take the title. I am sure he gets a laugh out of the fact that he will be beating guys half his age. It's incredible seeing people like Vince still around and in shape (according to reports here). Now a days the new guys last for 3-5 years tops and burn out..
;D
-
wow, Vince and Benfatto look amazing considering thier age..Hell they look amazing for anyone...Can't wait to see pics of this show..
-
Damn! Vince' arm looking good. and the abs, if the rest looks like that it'll be interesting to see what happens.
-
Woah..... Vince looks sick, Benafatto looks sick, Branch looks sick and Lee has a tatoo on his head
-
WOW !
I didn't expect Vince to look THAT good.
Just look at those fucking arms :o
definitly top 5 and maybe top 3 depend on how lee,branch and ronnie are gonna look.
don'T know about benfatto tought, he looks good but compare to the other guy..... :-\
we will see onstage ;D
-
i think branch looks amazing. hes got that grainy look down. i dont know what lee looks like. also, whats the payout for the winner?
-
Benfatto looks bigger than he did back in the day. I thought he was popped by customs...glad he made. Definitely looks to be a great show....
-
Woah..... Vince looks sick, Benafatto looks sick, Branch looks sick and Lee has a tatoo on his head
Very subtle, but very funny. ;D
Oh, and there should be no, I repeat NOOOOO bias on the judges part. Let's make this a fair show where the winner is the best guy on stage no matter who it is.

Here is some pics of Francis Benfatto (47 years old), Ronnie Rockel, Branch Warren and Vince Taylor (also mid to late forties) 3 days out from the 2006 Australian Grand Prix.

However the getbig time relates to you the contest starts at 4pm qld, which is 10pm board time (around 24 hours from now).
Not sure how you came to your time calculation.
