Great episode guys. You've hit your straps. I was surprised the other day to find out that someone I know who dresses like Jim Kerr C 1982 and studies Latin in his spare time (a true original) is as big a fan as I am. That's broad spectrum appeal. Keep going with the digressions -- the ruminations about 'On the Buses' and the like add a lot of charm, and actually add to the footy analysis. The game has changed radically, just like society, and I love the way you explore the linkages. No one else does that.
Actually, what a year it has been. Highlights: 1) Finey's attempt at rap. Where in this day and age do you hear anything like that? In the finest traditions of Australian auto-piss-taking. More, you bald beast. 2) The Roco rants. Always authentic, well-structured and funny. The wounded note that occasionally creeps in has me in stitches. 3) Damn you for this, but the Andrew's Hamburgers promos. I've just sent my son off to Albert Park from Balaclava in the rain because of you lot. 4) The smarts. In the end, I keep coming back for the analysis and the love of the game. You can't fake that.
Thanks for all the hard work this year. It means a lot to many. Some of the best radio going around.
Hey Alcoa,
That's Les Fong in your avatar, right? Anyway, just wanted to say thanks so much for those kind words, really do appreciate it. Without crying poor, we really don't make much (you'd be surprised how little!) out of doing this, and it does involve a bit of work, so just knowing that people are genuinely enjoying it is a payoff in itself. That goes for everyone who takes the time to write stuff on this thread btw, I consider all you guys our barometer of sorts, so thank you all!
