I batted 11 in a game we lost outright. The top and middle order were being decimated and the umpire warned us he'd start timing out as we had a few blokes taking the piss trying to buy time so we'd get to the end of the day without being bowled out twice. He kept his word and timed out a guy...
We've got a Essendon supporter at work with a sense of humour. His take is in 2023 the eldest of his 6 (!) kids started driving and the youngest kid from his 2nd marriage started primary school, but in his words "last time Essendon won a final I think I was still a virgin".
Think I've told this story in more detail before, but years ago we convinced this really smug whiney English backpacker at our work who was complaining about Luna Park that Wobbies World was the gold standard of Australian theme parks.
He went out there one Saturday and didn't speak to anyone...
For sure, but whatever has blown up in his face before he walks away teflon clean. And any fall out never hits his hip pocket. Nothing has changed in 40 years.
