TGO: (coughs) it's hard to miss them actually. They're hanging in the corner of my eye mate. They are the biggest scrotum I've ever seen
B: (interjecting) oh robbo
T: on a, on an animal
B: we've got the idea (and continues manfully on)
TGO is now laughing, and again staring, enraptured by what he has the pleasure of seeing.

Episode 19 - Thursday week 5 - woolly jumper weekend (how do they think of this crap?) part 2

Richmond will play Geelong, we get a montage of vision and quotes about tigers in trouble and all the typical rubbish. It's round 5 guys, but hey..

Beaker: if Richmond is going to amount to something, it's time to beat Geelong. (I don't want to editorialize, but tigers lost, made the 8, cats won, failed to make the 8, but where would we be without hype?)

TGO: yes it is. Um it's interesting though, it's process, not motivation. They can't have the motivation of (pause) what happened last week. Ee, ee, It's got to, it's got to steel them, but they just gotta play better football, and when I say play better football they've got to (pause) they've got to stay in the contest. They got to, I, er, we, I often say this , I don't know if I'm right or wrong, Gerard, but you've got to do the fundamentals well. Which is, be accountable; defend; if the balls there, go for the ball; if they've got it, go hard at them; and just, and, and be mindful around and be really heavily defensive around stoppages. And then they can get back on even footing, and then maybe they can get start playing their style of game, cause what's happening in recent times, is that teams who are playing colling er, that are playing Richmond aren't allowing them to play how they want to play, which is pretty, pretty much break neck speed, use the ball, let's run with it, they did it against Carlton that first game, you called the game, they just opened up the MCG and Carlton defended so so poorly, but since then (pause) the other two teams, they've lost to, which was one was the dogs and one was and they didn't allow them to do that. So they've actually got to fight and wrestle so they can get to their game, what they're doing now is they want to go straight to they're game and they're just getting stampeded.

B: talks about Tigers credibility and how its time to beat Geelong (sorry, it's TGO's glory, beaker just boring me)

T: it's amazing, there's only, wh, ah, they're a wonderful football club Richmond they really are, but really it's only Richmond that can have a line in the sand game at round 4 of the season, and that's what it is, everyone's spoken, the coach has spoken, the ceo's spoken, several times, he's backed hardwick look at the back page of the herald sun, went all round Australia it's all channeled into a round 5 game. It's incredible, but, that's football. We'll go along on Saturday and see if this football club stands up, (now he enters full you can't handle the truth mode, he becomes fully animated, his pen stabbing at his pad, his eyes looking down, this is the sermon) not the football club. (Pause) If we're going to be really really honest, it is, it is the players, that group of players must (now the pen is repeatedly stabbing in the air at beaker) do what Gold Coast did, they actually got to look each other, and say are you man enough, really, are are you man enough, are you man enough, am I man enough, it's got to come from cotchin, and he's got to be, got to (now he's struggling for his words, his eyes are closed, his hand forms a fist, then goes to his head, obviously frustrated, highly emotional, he even grits his teeth) he's almost gotta get angry. People say no we don't get angry in footy clubs anymore, that I, er, that's a lie, cause the games too, it's too, it's too emotional not to get angry, you know, so the players wh, it's gotta come from the players, hardwick can coach, how many plan b's or c's has he got I don't know, ok, but he's had a real he knows football, (pause) the play, the players let him down, the players let supporters down, you know, oh well, we'll we'll fix it, we'll play next week, I'm sick of excuses from this football club. For three years, we've had excuse aft, every, every month we have an excuse from Richmond, it's crazy.

B: (moving on) the Q clash is the hardest sell....

Really this again had to be seen to be fully appreciated. The changes in his mood, his voice, the subtle pauses, I'm sorry I just can't convey all of that. He took me to the top of the mountain, then to the depths of the valley, and up and down again. I can only imagine what a tigers supporter made of it.

And again, yes he referred to the match being in round 4 and in round 5. I also must say I appreciated the reference to the herald sun backpage.

And, the sneaky allusion to Gerard commentating on the Richmond Carlton game, earning brownie points from beaker. One could ask why on earth he needed to mention it, how did it relate at all to his speech, but, after all, the lord operates in mysterious ways.

I imagine a hsc (or vce) student could be asked in their English test to comment on the speech, compare and contrast aspects of it, and analyse how he uses his language to express his message, but, I think more than 3 hours, much more than 3 hours would be needed.

I have just been looking at last year's Specialist Maths exam as my son takes it next year. I don't understand even one thing about it. Yet I would have more chance of passing that exam than of deciphering the gnomic utterances of TGO. The man truly speaks in tongues.

Prospect AC - you must open your mind to allow TGO to speak to you - only then will his message be deciphered to unlock the power of his words that appear as jumbled ramblings to the unwashed

Thanks man, my favorite recorded concert of all time. And I love the doggies as well.

The TGO spreads love and bliss wherever he goes. He is a human bong hit.

Much too kind brothers, 'tis only by the divine glow of TGO that the true path is lit. I am a mere conduit for His, and all of your holy emissions.

Tis true Brother AlcoaCat, but ones output only ever as radiant as ones inspiration. In that regard TGO beams like the heat from a billion suns, or if you will, a carelessly microwaved pie.
