Great work SM. Never thought I'd see a reference to Antenatal class for AFL fathers to be on here, but see it I now have.

Excellent as usual SM, i particularly liked the acknowledgement of Zurhaar's shepherd to assist the matchwinning goal. Onwards and Upwards.

Goosebumps were the bomb.

Loved them. Apparently they sold 250 million of them!

The blue doll that is still the thumbnail for the thread is now weirding me out.

Great work again SM!

What the....???

 

[North Viking]

I am getting weird looks whilst silently chuckling to myself at the airport as I read these waiting for my flight home.








or perhaps I have left my fly open again.

Anyways. Top notch read! Throughly enjoy all your work SM!!

Excellent as usual SM, I loved the little swipe at the Bulldogs

 

[JD-Roo]

I look forward to this every round, win or loss.

Always great, always entertaining. This week didn't disappoint. Kudos (again!)

"Or more simply put, there’s a heap of people making cash off the back of a game that would exist in a purer form if 90 percent of them were sitting in the stands with a pie and a Courage Draught."

A million million million times this.

Putin man bun, i'm still laughing

 

[Ashley B]

Wow , another great read , keep up the good work

 

[JD-Roo]

All so so SO familiar!!!

Mrs JD wonders how I have NOT been booked for speeding when we listen to close North games on the Hume over the years!

Great work!!

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Radio games - exactly right. Take the tiny details and imagine the worst!

After a loss these cheer me up, after a win I think I literally swell with pride.

 

[chugginon]

Mate, I have to apologise. Like a bunch of other folks around here, I have been merrily enjoying the s**t out of your write-ups since O'Shanassy Street's inception, but for some reason it keeps slipping my mind to pop in here and say how big a fan I am of your work.

So consider this post as me addressing that aforementioned oversight. Seriously top shelf stuff. Superbly written and frequently piss funny pieces.

Take a bow, dude.

What that poster said. So good.

Oh man, this one reminded me of the time I had to drive to Werribee on the afternoon of the last day in September of a year that didn't happen (somewhere between 1997 and 1999) with two girls in the car who had zero interest in the match I was listening to on the radio and who wanted to chat up a storm...

We hit the road at half time as well. Never has a man had a worse day that never happened.
