Some elements aren't working as we'd hoped - some avatars didn't survive the transition, and we're still having issues with attachments that weren't added as inline images, but we're hoping to have that all sorted out soon.

  • Just in case you're wanting to set your alarm to watch Matt compete on the WBC LiveStream - he's on at 4.15am AEST - Go Matt!
  • Matt looked even more relaxed, calmer & professional in his semi-final presentation. Honestly, it feels to me to be not all that different to having Matt make you a coffee as he would day to day. I'm so excited at how well he's done, I'm likely to explode if he wins. Which he will.
  • All nighter coming up I feel, first bottle O red nearly done between me and the cooking  ;D
  • What cafe does Matt work at normally?
  • Dear Matt Perger, The thoughts and hearts of the Australian Coffee industry are with you, in this clash of the Coffee Gods. We admire your tenacity - competing without the aid or support of underpants (because housekeeping stole them for some reason) is just incredibly ballsy. We salute your focus and steadfast refusal to allow Dave Makin to distract you with Gin Clubs and the like. And finally, we silently admire your devilishly good looks. Forget Phar Lap and Don Bradman - We have a new Australian Hero!

  • Damn it someone put music over the semis one, I can't hear what he is saying, I realise it's the same as the first one but I wanted to hear if the judges had different replies and he added the parts in different quantities... I hope to hear that he has won when I turn my computer back on tomorrow morning :D
