Resource Suggestions to pass the time away

[George]

Diehard Saint made a post in the CV thread that got me thinking...

Plenty of us come on here for a bit of a laugh, connect with other Saints fans, and talk football in general.

Now that we have two months and possibly more where there will be effectively no football to talk about, I was wondering if you guys would like us to run some competitions or do something to pass the time?

I'm happy to do one night a week where I can live stream an old Saints classic from the BigFooty Saints YouTube page? Voted on by you guys? What do you reckon? I could post the stream in its own thread on here and we could get some discussion going? Reminisce?

Any other suggestions?

Maybe the funniest Saints game day story thread.

replay the kangaroos game over and over, as it was so enjoyable to watch

This weekend? If many are keen I am happy to set it up.

I'm all for this.

Nothing else to do right now so might as well rebuild the hope by remembering back to when we were good or reliving some of those unexpected wins.

Once AFL Evolution 2 Releases next month, I think a few of us could have some fun with some simulated seasons or even intra-forum matches for those of us playing on the same platforms. Due 23rd of April I believe - hopefully releasing on PC on the same time, this time around.

Will give it a whirl this Thursday night. Trial run, lets see how much traction it gets

PC release delayed unfortunately, but it is a great idea.

Going to keep up with my running program. Was training for a marathon later in the year so I definitely have more time up my sleeve to achieve that now.

In home activities, well I will buy a few lego sets to keep the mind ticking along and a bit of PS4 won’t hurt.

Watch endless replays of our round 10 game in 2004.

An interesting read from 2005

Saints inflict record loss on Lions

The Brisbane Lions bowed out of season 2005 in embarassing fashion, suffering a 139-point loss to St Kilda at Docklands, the worst defeat in the joint-venture's history.

I've got Cities Skylines going. Here's a few screenshots from the current city.



The monorail station caught fire. The fire department put out everything.......except 1 shrub:




Apparently not even a tsunami stops the soccer.



Someone should really tell these passengers waiting for a bus to get away from a burning building.



And an overview of the joint

How good did we look then . A forward line of Roo , Hamil and Milne . Midfield of Harvey , Hayes , Dal Santo , Ball ( when he could still run and kick ) Joey , and Aussie Jones . Im guessing our back line must have let us down

Download cod warzone, and play Battle Royale. It’s free and it’s a blast with mates!
For the older folk, you parachute down out of a plane and battle your way to the finish with various guns. 150 people, 50 squads of 3 players. Only one life each. The map gets smaller and smaller over time, so you have to keep moving to stay alive.
