    The Interesting Scorecard Thread

    Not an actual scorecard, but an over-by-over analysis of Dennis Lillee's 8-29 against the World XI at Perth in the previously-mentioned 1971-72 series. He finished off by taking 6-0 in 15 balls.

    Did you mean to write "wives" instead of "wifes"? Wives means you have more than one wife, which I think could still make the joke work. (And you missed your apostrophe).

    The Osmonds: Crazy Horses. I discovered this song late last year when somebody posted a clip of the song here on Big Footy. The song certainly strays away from the family feel-good vibe.

    Elton John: Saturday Night’s Alright for Fighting Elvis Presley: Jailhouse Rock. You’d have to believe Colonel Tom Parker curbed Elvis’ early heavy sound. Little Richard: Good Golly, Miss Molly

    Neil Diamond: Crunchy Granola Suite. I wonder why he didn’t do more songs with this type of beat and tempo.

    The Monkees were never known for producing constantly rocking sounds, but I feel Pleasant Valley Sunday provides their heaviest, rockiest sound, especially during the fade out.

    For Abba, I would go with Rock Me From The Kinks, a song which many have claimed has the heaviest riff ever, All Day and All of the Night.

    Any artist's heaviest track

    What are the heaviest songs you believe any artist has released? The songs do not have to be bordering on heavy metal, simply what you feel is the heaviest sound or strongest riff or loudest noise an artist put into one particular song. The artists don’t need to be artists who are associated...

    Autopsy This is going to be painful. The Dogs V Bombers debacle thread.

    There is perhaps a small consolation in our loss. We seem to have channelled some karma through Essendon which came out in their game on Friday. Adelaide lost a close one after a controversial umpiring decision in the fourth quarter. Sound familiar, Crows?

    Why do they not keep score in soccer games in Afghanistan? They have a tally ban.

    Stats observations

    Fremantle had the same number of goals and behinds at the end of each quarter in their game against Port. I believe this is the first such instance since 2007. 35Daicos I remember you made a red, white and blue table detailing all instances. Seventeen years could well be the longest gap...

    All things re *Paul*'s afltables.com

    Good to see Paul's website referring to Opening Round/Round Zero as Round 1, and counting the rounds thereafter in chronological sequence, which means this weekend's round is listed as Round 5, not 4. The AFL sure didn't think that one through.

    Has anyone tried watching The Greatest Night in Pop lately? I have tried but am getting a squashed image, not a proper rectangular image. I can hear the audio no problem. I decided to watch something else and it played fine. Went back to Greatest Night but still getting a squashed image.
