Does the real you come from Buninyong-noticed a Mechanic there with the same glorious name the other day.

They say 'he who laughs last, laughs best'!  And, Jack had the last laugh: 

“I had a nice little moment in front of the Collingwood cheer squad when the siren went at the end of the game...”

How sweet that moment must have been.

Yes ok Good for Jack but let's not forget that Watts was principally responsible for us being 28 points down in the first half !!!!

I still feel like a 7 year old the day after Christmas. That win (and JW4's last goal) is a gift that just keeps on giving.

Let's tear some puppy dogs apart.

Either brilliant and supernaturally subtle irony ... or you're about 3 whipping-boys behind the rest of us.

I choose the former.

The real "ME"?  Or, the real Barrie Vagg?  (Hard to believe, but I really aint he!  -- Just loved hearing him kick goals as I sat in front of the Radiogram on many a cold Winter's arvo in wind blown Sale back in the day...)

Hard to believe in the 21st century that us country kids only had radio back then BV. 

The Radiogram I remember well. A mate's family had one.

my god we are old.

"Old"??  Nah!  I prefer the term "Classic"!!  LOL

Our Radiogram was a "His Master's Voice (HMV)".  Classic, ornate timber cabinet.  Was a gem!

Vagg, the wife's Nonna passed a few years ago and we were lucky enough to get her radiogram. Had it refurbed... bloody love.

You might need to go to Thailand for that.

Another one... Watts in particular looked like he was really waiting his full 30 seconds when having shots on goal. I've always wondered why no player/team absolutely waits the full 30 seconds to begin the goal kicking run up. Especially with the gut busting running now days.

[Pates 9,660]

Someone mentioned it earlier but I didn't actually catch on to it, when did they start running a countdown clock at the game? I've always thought the theatre of not knowing how long is left when you're at the game is one of the things that makes our game unique. On the broadcast is different but is the countdown at the venue a permanent fixture?

So much better than Hamish's "Oscar-Elliot" and "Watts, kick, goal". 

Seven are really pushing him but I'm simply not a fan. Hell I'd even take BT over him.

Maybe they are referring to the shot clock?  I think they do have a countdown clock along the electronic fence but only goes down to 2 mins but I didn't take my eyes off the footy on Monday so can't be sure

That is one of the funniest thing's I have ever seen! Of the ones they highlighted I would say 20-30% of them they'd have legitimate causes to argue, the rest you wonder whether they even know the rules! 

In fact by highlighting those argued decisions it has only proven how ignorant they are! Are they going to do the same thing the next match they get a good run of decisions? When we lost to the Roos it was one of the most one sided umpiring displays I've seen, I was furious but I'd say close to everyone on here recognised that while they're a factor it's ultimately up to the players to do their job. The one passage of play that was of importance in the context of the game was the push by ANB and potential HTB following up.

Apart from that they are bloody sooks.
