What # is Mentha? (Seems 34 about the only vacant one...)

I realise this probably doesn't fit in this thread. But, it was too good to not post somewhere, so I'm sticking it here. (Sorry!) Dennis has a point when we all get a bit fired up watching the game on the telly! 😎

A Fair weather supporter, huh, Andy?

Who is Luker??

Yes, he and his great mate Stretch Jnr were drafted together. I had great hopes that Stretch Jnr would follow in his Dad's footsteps. Alas, was not to be. But, Nibbler hung in there, and became the great servant that he is. Will be missed.

ABSOLUTELY!!!! I've always said there are two things in footy that make me happy. One is Melb winning. The other is Coll'wood losing. And, if it happens in the same match, I'm over the moon. Now, if it ALSO keeps 'em outa the finals, well that would REALLY make the end of the season sweet!

LOL. Wasn't that mooted at the time of looking to set up the new GC team? Was talk of that being a Nth relocation. At the time, they had dispensed with the name "Nth Melb", and just wanted to be called "The Kangaroos". When talk turned serious about the relocation, they suddenly "rediscovered" their Nth Melb identity!

What's with the outfits these two teams are wearing?? If they'd both just worn their traditional jumpers, there would be no clash! I just don't get it! Aren't the teams proud of their jumpers any more??

FB, I'm not sure how your comment is an answer to my question. If anything, doesn't it just reinforce my question? (I know I must be missing something, just don't know what it is...)

I'm certainly not up with all the rules. But, I was kinda surprised Melksham wasn't just put straight on to the long-term injured list, rather than delisting him and then adding him to Rookie list.

WCW, please tell your friend she is the BEST!! Finding a nice, single line per game fixture is virtually impossible to find these days. I usually have to make my own. This saves a LOT of work!! Cheers!

Hey, WCW, is there any way of getting this version of the Dees Fixture without the red highlighting? Would be very grateful if you can provide. many thanks!

I recall, back when Goldstein was far and away the best Ruckman in the League, Max made the statement that he wanted to be as good as Goldstein (or words to that effect). At the time, I thought yep, that's a nice thing to aspire to, not really, deep down, believing he would ever achieve it, and kinda thinking he was just biting off a bit more than he could chew. At the time, he was just an average Ruckman, and to effectively say you were gonna become the best was a stretch too far. Guess what! He did it. And, then, he just kept on getting better & better & better! From where he came from, with his slack training, poor habits and knee recos, what he has achieved is truly remarkable, and he deserves all the plaudits that he gets! Well done Maxie!!

Let me tell you, it was a whole lot more fun being 20 in the 70s than 70 in the 20s...!!
