Travis Johnstone Tributes and Memories thread.

[master bate]

I hate fall out boy as much as anyone but the lyrics fit well here:

One night and one more time
Thanks for the memories,
even though they weren't so great
He tastes like you only sweeter

The last line is a clear reference to Ben Holland at the brownlow.

Hope you guys pick up a terrific player with #14.

Very, very sad to lose one of your favourites, but emotion aside, it looks like a good result for both of us.

For what it's worth, if he has any kids we get first dibs on them don't we? Ah yes...Excellent. Talent is inherited yeah?

well his grandfather is in the Fitzroy team of the century

2007's Pick 14 is probably not going to be as good, at football, as Travis Johnstone.

A new coach, ie. Bailey, should not let the highly skilled players go. I thought the decision to let Godfrey go was a good one. Godders, for all his trying, could not deliver the ball to our forwards efficiently.

TJ is an effective ball winner and lethally effective kick (aside from his clangers due to his being a bit too eager to break the lines).

We have lost a player with 5 years left in him who can be really damaging on the scoreboard.

Not good at all.

Poor first post, this is for tributes and memories. Good username though.

TJ IS GOD will know...

C'mon guys lets just retire the number 16 and be done with it

Sorry to bump an old thread, but just had a small tidbit of gossip.

When Hutchy the Rat was in Brisbane earlier in the week interviewing Brown, he also interviewed Travis, desperate to get some dirt on the Demons.

Apparently Travis didn't give Hutchy what he was after, instead he spoke in glowing terms of the club, his ex-teammates and the people behind the scenes.

Looks like your club was Hutchy's designated topic for last nights Footy Show, but he had nothing to go with, forcing him to go with the "Brown thinking of leaving Brisbane" angle instead.

Cheers BD. Really good to hear that sort of thing, amongst all the typical backstabbing that you hear these days. Not looking at Libba or anything...

For mine, TJ always came across as being one sandwich short of a picnic, but still if the above is true then it's very pleasing to hear

Watching TJ rip it up in Brisbane is just making 2008 that much more enjoyable

I agree with the merits of the trade, but doesn't mean every Melbourne fan has to embrace it.

 

[eliasd82]

definitely... and hopefully TJ wins the brownlow and secures me $3,600... got on him each way in December at 501-1.. go little TJ wins me some cash!!!

And I hope we go 20-2 and win the flag, but that's not going to happen either.
