He'd have to catch me first

I'm just stirrin the pot, don't mind me.

You're right though.

I have gone soft.

Too ****ing nice for my own good me.

I'm hoping a few mates being in town this week for Laneway and Metz sideshow might toughen me up a bit. Sydney has gotten to me. I pushed an old lady over that was in my way the other day and didn't stop to kick the old campaigner once. Not once.

My old man would be ashamed.

Yep smashed 1942 at a 9 year olds party at some arcade the other week. Kids were in total awe of my mad skills, mums were in total awe of the hip movements needed to play well

Haha! Awesome. Glad it's not just me. Coz before I knew it, I was dislocating hips, shoulders, my neck, knees, elbows, ankles and swearing at the screen.

Sorry to the Mums who took their little kiddies to yesterday's session.

But, well, yeah, nah, I'm not sorry. Not one bit. Nope.

XCOM 2 mods hurry up, I want to make a team of Port player look a likes to send into glorious battle but there isn't enough face choices and no teal secondary armour colour!

I remember there was an old 1942 machine down at my local takeaway shop, it was that old that it took 20c pieces, it was there for years unplugged, i enquired about it because i was interested to restore it but the owner wanted $1000 for it, considering it was broken i told her to GAGF.

Thought this game wasn't coming out for another few months. Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeen.

Go And Get it Fixed?

Good advice Luke.

I had an old cabinet (Italia 90) that I bought for $200 years ago. That game had stopped working ages ago. About 6 months ago, rang a guy who came out and installed the 60+ game system for $150 + new buttons etc for mashing.

What I am trying to say is, $1000. GAGF.

Also, gotta love the footy jumper graphic design forums.

So stressed over the shape of collars, position and size of sponsor logos, etc., for instance the collars shown below:

It's the one place other than the bay I like to lurk, for some reason it just tickles some part of my brain.

Compare and contrast. The broken stripes are so unnecessarily poor.

I imagine this picture had many a memorable caption attached to it back in the day.

Back in the day the image would currently look like this.

No wonder it took so long to give oneself a 'sorting' out back in the day......

So its a tough decision starting your offspring's footy career....

Need to register him with Auskick but he's received a pamphlet from school pimping a particular footy club, where I'd rather he not play. I was going to register him elsewhere.

The dilemma is is keeping him with his friends as he's just started school this week.

Hmmmm

Hmmmm

He can have school mates and footy mates

 

[Eddie Dingle]

Or if he is dumb and shit at footy he'll have no mates.

Easy.

 

[Power Girl]

It is actually better for them to have a wider diverse group of friends. Can he not play for his primary school and a different club?

My eldest plays for a club not near his school and when he goes anywhere it seems everyone knows him and comes up to talk to him because he has mates from all over.

My boy is 4 and just beginning his sporting journey...

I've registered him for Auskick at this club, but when he's older, I'll move him to the club I want him to be at..... That begins in U/8

It is just Auskick. My son did not even do it as was already playing club soccer and then started school footy in year 1. Now plays school and club footy. Auskick from what my partner (who's son did it last year) was pretty basic stuff. It is a 1 or 2 year deal before they start 'real-sh' football, so I would not get bother too much about who runs it/has ties to it.

 

[Dylan8]

Easy, just raise him to be a social tastemaker and have him convince his friends to join the club you want him to be at.

Yeah pretty much this.
