Football Related Random Thread - PART 2

[Mr Ripper]

My YouTube channel was recently followed by David Ogg… or, at least someone calling themselves David Ogg. Pretty random football related happening.

Anything interesting on your YT channel?

Just finished re-watching 2013 miracle on the grass. Honestly, if you're ever having a down day, that will always bring a smile to your dial. I remember watching this as a sleep deprived first time dad, bubs had recently gone down and I was screaming into a pillow as McGrath's goal sailed through after the siren. Feel like the club should have this on replay to pump the boys up every week.

It’s mainly old Fitzroy VHS stuff, with a few other random games thrown in.

The best part of the banner was the message.

Can we put a message up on the scoreboard when they run out?

Loved it when we had the thread where posted out message ideas every week.

Iirc one of them was used???

Not sure why this popped into my head as I was falling asleep last night...

I remember reading once about how someone like Nick Reiwolt would go into the fish and chip shop to get a feed and while he was waiting the other customers would be picking apart his game and what he did right and wrong and could do better etc.

The thought that I got was to wonder if the same thing happens to umpires - do Razor and co go into their local fisho and get their every call debated or are they not quite as recognised when in mufti?

I think that was Tony Lockett -- Weddings Parties Anything wrote Monday's Experts about it.

I may have been mis-remembering this ... Saints verify Riewoldt caught up in scuffle

Ah ok -- probably similar situations.

Ah ok -- probably similar situations.

Heard similar about Daniher too, before his move, so I'm guessing it's not uncommon.

Nice story of growing old disgracefully as a Lions Fan

My elderly mother met a gang of bikies and got a tattoo. It taught me a great lesson

In that instant, I changed my mind about my mother. I realised she was not defenceless. I didn’t have to worry about her.

That has given me inspiration to get my first tattoo (at 63 years old) if the Lions win the flag this year.

I swear we've missed a few...but that could be a few years back and my mind is going to mush

A quick search of the interwebs shows the author as well credentialed. Interviewed by the likes of Nick Earls and Deborah Knight. No sign of any Demidenko style scandal brewing so I'll give her the benefit of the doubt. What a cynical world we live in.

Will settle for slightly embellished.

Gee these nine things we learnt are getting a bit lazy.

This week: Adelaide could have the League's best forward line

Last week: The Crows may have the AFL's best forward line

Not wanting to jinx anything - does anyone book flights for random times of the year? Maybe September/October?

Is there a cheapest time to book? Do they sometimes randomly add flights and sell tickets?

Just a random query, doesn't mean anything.

Maybe Selwyn Griffith wasn't the mastermind behind the medical situation after all.
