Past #26: Tarryn Thomas - Roo until end '24

[Snake_Baker]

Three in a season.

 

[muttley45]

Ldu and Souva, over to you.

Maybe a stretch, and a little greedy too, but add Curtis to the list.

Was it the 95 prelim when Kouta ripped us apart?

The Carlton salary cap ripped us apart in 95.

 

[Moti]

Was it the 95 prelim when Kouta ripped us apart?

Can't remember him really tearing us apart in the finals. That night we had quite a few players ripping us apart.

Was it the 95 prelim when Kouta ripped us apart?

Don’t think so.
Ratten and Pearce for memory.

Conditions were terrible that night.

Great work TT..... Also makes me laugh when Matty Lloyd on footy classified in the week before the Carlton game claimed Blues had about 10 young potential AA players and we had 1 (LDU). Stick it up them boys.

Outstanding Tarryn, and it’s just the beginning

I don't think those two can remember much of it though

Diesel just got a bit of extra rest before winning the Norm Smith.

My only memory of that game seems to be Carlton either getting a free kick before the opening bounce, or a two-for-one early on from a free kick. That and the whole centre square being a mud pit.

Obviously happy for him but how he won it over Walsh I have no idea. I'll take it.

Walsh already got his nomination a few weeks ago.

Ah missed that.

To win a Rising Star nom off 1 quarter is pretty cool!!! Congrats Tarryn!!

My memory was, that I was very drunk and in the standing room area with limited view on the Southern Stand, could see only part of the ground. We came back slightly by 3/4 time after being down early, to give us some hope, only to be absolutely blown away in the last.

that is an achievement in itself these days, getting drunk at the footy!

To be fair, I was drunk before I got there

For some reason that night felt really black, as if it was being played on some country ground with limited lighting. Your recollection is right, I remember the commentary at 3/4 time saying "well they were getting blown away but North Melbourne have turned this into a dogfight (after bringing margin down to 19pts)."

Nek minnit, lose by 60.

A little North kid with his folks next to me starting crying in the last quarter. I always thought it would've been good to see the expression on his face a year later

 

[Bugsy Malone]

Well done Tarryn, it will be a joy watching you play for the next 10+ years.

That kid must be honoured to have had a future Brownlow Medalist and multiple premiership player on his shoulders.

It’s only the beginning
