MFC Trivia question.

What do Peter Tossol, James Magner and Sam Weideman have in common and keep it nice?

Award-winning at reserves level while playing for Demons?

Oh, premierships at reserves level?

Waaaaaiiiit..... I've got it but will leave it for others to guess/figure as well.

That's amazing. I would've thought there would be barely three players in the whole league who have that in common, let alone three who each spent most of their career playing at reserves level.

Will see if anyone else guesses before confirming.

First two kicks at AFL level were goals.

It was a bizarre one with Weideman as no articles or Wikipedia mention it, because he had about a dozen handballs in between his first and second kick and the second was late in the game.

I only realised when I noticed Weideman had just two kicks total in his first game, so they must both have been goals otherwise another umpire would have to be arrested.

Saw afterwards that Little Goffy had beaten me to the draw.

Random ponderance: at the men’s B&F the players were dressed by our newest sponsor, Country Road, and all wore the exact same suit. Don’t get me wrong they all looked dapper and apparently all got to keep their $750 suit. But…

In a couple of weeks it’ll be our W B&F. Should we expect to see every player in the exact same dress? Of course not. That’d be silly, right? Why then couldn’t Country Road have put the guys in different suits?

PS please humour me. I’m supposed to be packing up my goddamn house for shifting on the goddamn weekend and right now I’m at the crossroads: either get on DL, or kill someone. Anyone.

Reading this mornings paper, clearly Hawthorn need more time to chill out and eat more Bananas.

But then they employed him with no name,  I still thank Don Scott !

This is apropos of nothing really but I just had to share it.

I was speaking (well listening) to a female acquaintance yesterday and she saw fit to inform me of of the cause of our rather odd weather conditions.

Apparently there was an earthquake last year ( location unspecified) which " knocked the Earth off its axles"  and thus our our current extreme weather.

Simples!

I wouldn't be surprised to find out Earth has been up on stumps on some derro alien's galactic front lawn for the last twenty years.
