Growing Up... - A late 90's feature

[Lonie_from_50]

I decided to look back on some old pictures, then I got the idea of making a desktop background.

For people between the ages of 16-21, this would most likely relate to you, and then, our older members may see this as worthy to them also. A good desktop background if you wanted.

Growing Up... 'Good Old Collingwood Forever'

Needs a better font in the middle - It brings the thing down.

 

[Lonie_from_50]

I am willing to improve it...but not now.

I might also put a BigPond logo on it. It seems the right thing to do these days.

I feel left out, I grew up in the late 80s (84 on...) I like that, looks good, now do one with Banksy, Millane, and DAICS!

Good effort, Lonie.

By the way, Paul Williams should never have left Collingwood, but for his sake he won a premiership medallion at his second home. He was one of my favourite players at Collingwood in the 90s.

Why not every thing else AFL has one on it

I was only at Primary School and Early High School and I wasn't watching much Footy then So I can only remeber little things here and there about them

The Williams photo is from 2000.

The Williams photo is from 2000.

Yes it is...but it doesn't exactly relate to the 90's itself by the picture...it is the man in it...the earlier the better, and to be honest, it was the best of him at Collingwood.

Go Magpies!

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Yeah, I loved Willo, very sad indeed to see him go. Even sadder than the day he did his knee at Vic Park.

 

[Johnson#26]

Nice work, LF50. Love the images.

 

[magman29]

Good one LF50..... Geez.. cant we clone Monkey & bring him back somehow ?? Monkey where are you ?..we need you

 

[rowdybrown26]

Love it, all of them are favourite sons! It does prove my theory though that I think Gavin Brown looks younger now then back then! What's his secret?!?!?!

He was playing bball in kilsyth tonight... hasn't shrunk one bit.

 

[jonesy86]

does anyone remember the Viatel(?) logo?????

there was a huge announcement one preseason and then before the season started that company went broke....so all that year at my local shopping centre all the collingwood jumpers they were selling had the orange Viatel logo on it even though we never wore it in a game

 

[Dazman]

As everyone else has said good pictures LF50. Just need on of my first favourite player, Steven Paterson (sp?). Loved him when I was about 7 and then steadily moved along to big Sav, Browny and Bucks.
