You know those mini-street sweepers they often run in Melbourne late at night? A mate years back saw Buddy and his mates drunkenly picking up the rubbish the driver of one of them was clearing and throwing it at him as he was going. They thought it was hilarious. My mate started filming them and...
The real losers out of West Coast's loss is Fitzroy - not only were you s**t but you're then used as a hardstick to compare any other team's shitness for the rest of time. Salt in the wounds.
Two powerhouse Victorian teams who haven't met in a Grand Final in 40 years.
Collingwood's shot at GF redemption up against Richmond's chance at a dynasty.
I'd say it's up there with North v West Coast in the '90's (the two best teams of that era, Carey v Jakovich).
All WA Grand Final with...
I remember him kicking one from the boundardy in a final against Essendon to keep them in touch when there wasn't an inch of daylight between the posts. Just slotted it.
Scintillating from start to finish.
The ultimate underdog against the Giants
GWS go on to become the greatest team on paper never to win a flag.
We narrowly dodge an all-NSW Grand Final.
Yeah, as far as his abilities as a TV personality I agree with you but you hear some stories on that show that you wouldn't hear anywhere else. Don't think David Schwartz would describe in detail how he saw his father murdered in front of him on The Front Bar.
My issue is that when you watch other sports around the world, you're reminded of how we seem to be the only one that rewards failure.
A kicker has to make the field goal to win the game. The shooter has to make the free throw. The striker has to make the penalty shot. Tony Lockett can miss the...
Thought about this again watching the Super Bowl and why it is that the AFL has the consolation prize of behind posts.
Would our game be any less if you were still awarded a point if the ball was touched over the goal line but there were no behind posts?
There's something about having just the...
It's only going to go up higher in the all-time ratings too now that it looks like the best list that never won a Premiership missed their best chance in that game against the fairytale team that weren't favourites in any of their finals. Best all time for me.
Early one morning Buddy and his mates thought it was hilarious to pick up the trash that was being swept by a street sweeper and throw it at the driver. Mate was filming it on his phone. Buddy and co ended up chasing him down the street demanding he delete the footage.
Bernie Vince saying that they should use more recently-retired players in commentary positions was good. His phrasing of "current past players" might need a bit of work.
Funny story about that photo, they weren't originally going to have one of the guys with his right fist in the air and one with the left but one of them forgot to bring his pair of gloves so they had to share a pair. Bold statement but doesn't exactly make the strongest case for your power.
I had this difference of opinion with a mate recently.
I argued that the period after you could ditch your day job but before smartphone cameras and social media (2004) would be ideal. You'd still be on decent coin without any Jake Carlisle-style transgressions being captured and immortalised...
Not sure why I remember this but Aker ran his own Leading Teams session within the house and Newman gave an absolute serve to Crawford, who cut up so bad he started tearing up and didn't appear on that week's show.
Don't have much time for The Footy Show usually but I found this one segment to...
What's the backstory on Eddie being tight with Collingwood players like Millane back in the day? (Like the Mr. X story). Hard to imagine current players letting a media figure/journo into their inner circle.
Saw this hanging up in a Collectibles shop in Smith Street once, some pretty impressive names on there. I'm guessing some Roys fan snapped it up pretty quick.
