true but Kenneally caught on quicker so repaid the faith as he should have. A 196cm player who's averaged 6 possessions and 2 marks in almost 50 games over 3 years most certainly hasn't. Give him one more year I reckon then trade him to Carlton. :thumbsu:
Kevin O'Keefe!
We called him 'Kezzel', although I'm not sure if that was his actual nickname or one we just dreamt up for him. :D
Most of the real cult heroes you guys have already covered but a couple of others I liked were Leon 'Mork' Harris and Kevin Caton.
hi all
you guys have covered a hell of a lot. You're memories are nothing short of amazing!
Anyways, a few sponsors come to mind...
Nanda, Darlington Investments, Cleanaway...
and a few other personal memories...
John Ironmonger destroying the Eagles in a night game at the G
John...
I was. Apologies....wishful thinking. I want Fitzroy back!
I think I only went to one Fitzroy practice match. Fitzy v Coll at Vic Park. My uncle had about 12 cans and just smoked a reefer then got into a punch on with a Collingwood supporter. It would have been funny if it wasn't so serious...
haha. Deep Vein Rombotis. A nickname is born.
There was a practice match there at the start of this season against the Doggies. Blowing a freakin southerly gale right up the guts. Scores were pretty even at 3/4 time and we were coming home with what seemed like an 8 goal breeze. We ended up...
always with my family...a staunch Fitzroy clan. A big bunch of wog butchers with a penchant for cold beer. :D
Princes Park we were always in the pocket on the opposite side of the ground as the visiting players race....sorry...hopeless with landmarks...
Yeah Mobbenfuhrer I know where you...
Nicknames:
Oliver Slabovic / Oliver Beer / Oliver Bourbon & Coke....
Team supported NOW:
Brisbane
First Roys match you attended:
Junction Oval....1983 I think...the match where Bernie kicked his 100. Ran out on the ground and was bowled over 5m inside the boundary line.....cracked...
This was started on the Roys board..... thought we might as well continue it here.
What do you call certain groups of fans?
A 'Volvo' of Demons
A 'Choke' of Powers
A 'Brawl' of Magpies
A 'Creche' of Dockers
The 'delierate' umpire was Glenn James. He's been hated by my entire family ever since. I hope he never turns up to a family Christmas lunch because he'll be lynched.
good on Neon. Hope he goes well.
Although the footage I saw of him waddling around in a Willy jumper last night looks like he's 'chubbed up' a little bit
