This Saturday on C7 at 11.00 is THE BIG ONE - 1986 Elimination Final. The day when the dark clouds finally rolled away to illuminate the triumph of Good over Evil.
Relax and enjoy.

Mickey Conlan, He's Our Man,
If He Can't Kick It, No-One Can!
Is that 11am or 11pm??? I'll have to get someone to tape this for me . . .

Olmy, a lot of us will have our tapes running for this one, so I'm sure someone will make you a copy. http://www.bigfooty.com/ubb/biggrin.gif If no one else does, I will. http://www.bigfooty.com/ubb/smile.gif

For some reason I haven't been able to post a reply to this topic - been trying for an hour or so . . . http://www.bigfooty.com/ubb/mad.gif
Anyway . . .
LIONESS, in regards to your offer (for which I am very grateful!), I have sent you an e-mail, to your hotmail address (the one you have listed in your bigfooty profile).
Is it possible we could work something out regarding taping this match???
Feel free to e-mail me, if my other e-mail didn't get through! Thanks! http://www.bigfooty.com/ubb/smile.gif

I overheard the end of an Optus ad, which I though said 11.30am Saturday morning.

This is the first time I've ever seen any more of this match than the all-important goal. The conditions obviously made it scrappy, but geeze both teams were honest as blazes.
I'd almost forgotten what Lokan looked like, I HAD forgotten that the Dutchman used to have a mo.
Pert's run from defence, shoving the ball along to the wing in the second the quarter, almost gives him Primus status!
Mork's coathanger was a beaty, if unruly, and a couple of the goals were sensational.
Couldn't think of a better way to spend my Saturday http://www.bigfooty.com/ubb/smile.gif

Ten seconds after THAT goal, the phone rings.
I couldn't help but answer with GOOOOOOOALL!!
It was the Lynch Mob calling to say hi from Adelaide.
How coinkidink!

Since I didn't really get into footy till about 1988/89, I had never seen this game before.......LOVED it!!!!! http://www.bigfooty.com/ubb/biggrin.gif I agreee Mobben, it was a tad scrappy, but it was soooooooooo worth getting up after 4 hours sleep to watch!!!!!! http://www.bigfooty.com/ubb/biggrin.gif Loved hearing the club song blaring out at the end too, been an awful long time since I last heard it like that. http://www.bigfooty.com/ubb/smile.gif
OLMY - mission accomplished, it is recorded (it's a beautiful copy too http://www.bigfooty.com/ubb/smile.gif so take good care of it, I know where you live!!!!! http://www.bigfooty.com/ubb/tongue.gif hehehe) and I'll send it off on Monday first thing. http://www.bigfooty.com/ubb/smile.gif

Thanks Lioness! I'll be sure to take good care!

lioness, did you notice that many of the big names from both sides were often unsighted, and probably because they were drawn to play on each other. Roos/Merrett for instance, they seems to almost completely nullify one another.
And geeze, don't worry about Micky Conlan, especially considering the moment of glory was his. But didn't Ossie have a dirty day!

Olmy - you should get the tape today. http://www.bigfooty.com/ubb/biggrin.gif I sent it off a day later than expected, sorry about that. Hope you enjoy it.
Kev - yes, I did notice the way the big names nullified each other in the contests, I like when that happens, not sure why. Guess I just prefer it to the 'star player' running rings around some poor kid. It's more of a battle of skills, and I find that WAY more appealing.

Thanks Lioness! Don't worry about it being late, I'm happy to have it whenever!
Got the tape yesterday, Lioness! Loved it! Thanks! I'll have it back to you soon.
Fat Pizza, there will be something in the mail for you soon too!
