I was telling one of my kids that when I was a kid in the 70’s the ‘outflow’ from the urinals at Victoria Park used to run out onto the street and then down the drain. My question to anyone old enough is did this actually happen or have I made this up in my head?

It seems so far away from football conditions today

(And sorry I didn’t know where else to ask this question)

Most likely true. I recall the Bombers toilet on the outer was often flooded and you went against the back wall. That was real footy back then, both on and off the field.

When I was team manager of the Dees, I was warned not to loiter in the race at Vic Park, as I would be covered with cups of urine, if not just copping a spit or two. Lovely people at that ground.

Why not Siddle,  he would make  more with the bat and take more wickets.

not many filth games played in the 90s, moonie. Don't think i went there at that time. council lost patience with the filth with the urinals constantly flooding the railway lines.

Another quiet day in the AFL.

Siddle In also.   Now only a county bowler

Why put a side in when you leave attacking bowlers - starc Pattinson - out ?

And then win the toss and send them in! What was the old saying win the toss, think about sending them in, then bat always!

It’s even worse when you drop sitters !!!

[Earl Hood 6,082]

1 for 86 at lunch great decision to send them in then. The talk was that the wicket would be good so why send them in? Up against it now but thankfully Mitch Marsh is there.
