I loved the pineapple slice. But paddle pops were pretty good. I remember just a plain icy pole cost only 5 cents. Probably costs five times that every hour today just to keep em frozen.

As a kid that was probably the most expensive ice cream ever purchased. Probably returned three or four empty coke bottles as a down payment. I won't mention Mr whippy or uncle Bitters will probably chime in.

More of a Cornetto connoisseur. Partial to odd Gaytime. But that's really none of your business.

Guess the caffeine improved one's aim.

Remember the if you had yellow writing on the inside of packaging, you got a free one.

Sunnyboys and Razzes ( not sure if that's spelt right)...the frozen pyramids that after you sucked all the flavor out of you could chuck the remaining pointy ice brick at the St Michaels kids on the city bound side of Windsor station. Easy pickings.

So it's back to this. Gee I really miss footy. What about Orange frosties?

I understand the need for the dollars from the Nt game plus it's good for footy. But we have a better record at the G and less fatigue from travel by playing at home. But ultimately we want flags. Focus on wins and cups and we will be better off. Given the amount of travel we did this year including the never ending compulsory trip to Kardinia, I'm all for giving the Nt venue a miss.

All been there. Nice post.

Thanks Gunna. I'd say the answer is No.

They do well to jump on the ball and shut play down.

JV deservingly a lot of love on this thread.

This really sucks. We are such pushovers according to the afl, in so many ways.

Keep the bustards honest. You've got my vote WCW.

What a double whammy. Well called.

From a Melbourne perspective let's be honest it was a crappy ending so the season sucked. Congrats to the club for making finals but so many things seemed to just go wrong. It's a credit that with all the injuries we still could have gone all the way but poor skills ruled the day. To see a team that we could have beaten scrape through all their finals win a flag is the final slap in the face. Hard not to feel robbed but I do believe we will be a force again in 24 with a better list and less unlucky .

The non advantage call was massive. Timing and position made it even worse. What a bad umpire to call advantage before anyone even knew a free had even been paid. The free was for a clear trip and and not two seconds after the whistle or a second after a lions player kicked it straight up in the air, its play on. If there is no clear advantage or you are not sure then just stop. It ain't too hard. How many times this year have we seen pedantic umpires calling back players to kick over the mark. What a panic merchant that umpire was.

Fair point. Plus without them both 21 wouldn't have happened. I hold some hope bbb may get back to his old form but I'm not sure about Tmac.

I'll openly admit a dislike of Collingwood but I didn't find the game enthralling. But you are right, there were some fantastic goals, crunching tackles and great marks. That said I didn't think it was very entertaining. Just didn't have the x factor for me. Maybe it was my bias.

It may not sound like it in my posts but he really has been one of my favorite players. But his body has really let him down. Every time he's been back in I've thought just maybe. But I really reckon he went downhill mid 21. His quick goal in the Geelong prelim where he turned on a dime and kicked a goal was the last time I saw him move well. He struggled in the 21 gf and has ever since. His first 10 2021 games help secure a finals birth and he has been a wonderful servant of the club. Great memories of him running down the ground to take a good grab. It's been over 2 years now for him to play a great game so it's hard to see him back. He's on the payroll though, so let's hope it happens.

Bloody hell. My inference was solely they are an average premier team with no big finals win. Sheesh.

I was being sarcastic when I told you to have another drink.
