Ronnie Burns

Still got it!

Rofl!

 

[Exhale You]

Still got it!

And still no right foot

Was great to see Brad Sholl clearing it from defence.
Really brought back some memories.

All the night needed was a dose of Mensch Magic (organisers so should have asked him to play) and it would have been perfect.

Two awesome goals by Ronnie

 

[thejester]

Barry Stoneham, on the other hand...

 

[catempire]

Brad Sholl certainly still looked in good nick.

So did Barry but didn't play like it.

Don't forget all the plates and screws inside Big Baz - he had nearly every kind of injury in the book, and probably has to even drop his undies when he goes through airport metal detectors. To even get on the park must be an achievement for him.

 

[catempire]

This is true.

Of course, Sholly still plays (Port Fairy I think) where as Bazza probably hung up the boots (if he played post GFC at all) long ago.

 

[chapmanmagic35]

Rockin' Ronnie still has a kick for Berwick I believe.

The legend lives on

Sholl plays for Hawkesdale-Macarthur in the Mininera League in south west Victoria.

what bout the other Geelong superstar that played tonight J. Murphy? lmao.. discipline problems still...

bews looked in good nick as well, a little bit of snow on the roof though

The 'Silver Fox' title was between him and Shaun Smith tonight - I reckon The Rat's won it by a whisker!

What did Bobby Davis say "He was a great little player until they taught him how to play"

'They' being Gary Ayres I assume

He was the only player who could get Gary Ablett Snr jumping out of his seat while watching the cats

 

[Team Extreme]

anyone got any youtube videos of the goals?

 

[Duskfire]

I miss Ronnie.

Smart bloke, is Bobby There's been footy players who just turn out that way, from time to time. Geniuses at the 'individual' style their 'selfishness' is easily shaded by their brilliance. It's when they get dragged into the 'team game' that they become unstuck.

Years ago I thought Steve Johnson was gonna be one of those players, but his turnaround from that style of play has been incredible. Nobody can take the genius from his game, but he does the 'team' thing quite often these days.

Yeah, instead of trying for a freakish goal, he goes for a freakish 'centre' of the ball. Eg. against Freo last year in Perth. That was awesome. 1 step from boundary line hit Stokes on chest in middle of about 5 defenders!

 

[Renegade]

Gotta love the Ronnie Burns signature move.
Grab the ball near the boundary line, fake the handball, keep running....fake another handball....fake like he's going to kick......then fake another handball....then kick the banana goal.

 

[Geelong_Sicko]

Would it be fair to say that Ronnie Burns, Brad Sholl and maybe Derek Hall were the shining lights of the Gary Ayres years? (being that Buddha and co were Blighty's boys)

 

[Big_Tazz]

Ronnie Burns is more smooth on tv... lol, anyone got FOXTEL? Theres some aborigional footy show on thursday nights, on channel NITV(180) he is one of the pannelists....i was flicking through and saw it and was amazed that a show like it existed... its more about the indigenous players though, watched it for a bit and it was pretty fun i must say, that being said, i only watched it for Ronnie lol
