...So I tied an onion to my belt. Which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. Gimme five bees for a quarter, you'd say. Now where was I... oh yeah. The important thing was that I had an onion tied to my belt, which was the style at the time. You couldn't get white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...

Wouldn't give Sydney anymore than fourth rounder for him
Oh no a bidding war Adelaide actually has ammunition for!

Rooch: Triggy I hear Port are making a play for Andrejs Everitt
Trigg: Me too!!! Ummm what are they offering?
Rooch: A fourth round pick.
Trigg: We can top that, I didn't lose us our third round pick. The supporters will love me again if I top Port for the big Spider!
Rooch: It's his brother, Triggy
Trigg: Yeah yeah whatever, I'm working the phones! Where are those contracts?

Just not the right culture to attract a player.

Would you have a look at Andrejs Everitt? Can play forward and back, a bit taller than our usual suspects at 194cm, out of contract and likely to be a victim of the clearance sale at Sydney to fit Buddy under the salary cap.
Yes... Most definitely. He isn't star by any means but there is something there to work with at a low cost.

Did nickels have pictures of bumblebees on them ? Did you say "Give me 5 bees for a quarter?"


Edit - Damn you Janus

Might help if I look at the next page before trying to be funny :oops:
