I think ilpiantissimo will win this if he re-posts that story on how Lyon sent Morabito on the kokoda trail or whatever it was.

I will sharpen my keyboard keys and bash something out later.

Will you accept videos?

Haha excellent call.

We have a few aspiring young writers on this board (guys like Silent Alarm come to mind), will be some good entries for sho, I'll probably throw my hat in the ring at some stage.

Re-posts as long as it is your work are cool.

Video entries are OK too

I don't normally get out of bed in the morning for anything less than $60, but I might give it a shot later.

Ironically I don't normally get into bed for anything less than $75 but I'm going to give it a shot too (Mods can't win though)

estibador · Feb 3, 2012

$75 for a minute's work sounds like a pretty good gig.

I would love to make a contribution but all you other posters think I've got no idea. Pretty much what my wife has been telling me for years.

Nickos66 · Feb 3, 2012

Doesn't mean we won't read it.

Go for it.*

*Whatever you come up with will be that much more than I ever could be bothered to do.. or could possibly do anyway

Moo · Feb 5, 2012

Judges have said that is OK.

We still want to encourage the good old written posts but any multi media effort is welcome too.

2012: The Year Of Evolution.

Who better to assess the current state of the Fremantle Dockers than Sir David Attenborough. He traveled all the way to Freo Oval to observe how well we are shaping up and how we will evolve into a better side with all the changes that have swept through the club.

"It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change."

Prediction: From what David has observed, the adaptation to all this change at Fremantle will happen quite swiftly and we will be aiming for the top 4. This will be on the back Lyon 'evolving' every single player on this list to make them a better footballer...

Wonderful

Although our history is eighteen years not a million years.

Holy crap that was good

Might just be good enough to take out an encouragement award

Hope we will see some regular plain old posts too .. However hats off on this one Seppo

surfsup · Feb 13, 2012

I got the inspiration from all the BBC nature DVD's they are flogging over here on the TV and newspaper. Downloaded a heap of Sir Davids' documentaries and came up with a few bits that would match with preseason footage. Took me a whole week of editing

Great work Seppo :thumbsu:

I'm a bit internet challenged at the moment but I've got something I'll try put up in the next day or so.

I know the deadline is already gone but meh, I'm in it for the love not the money.

Seppo · Feb 22, 2012
