I am going to assume this a legitimate question and play straight: There was and is an American breakfast cereal called Count Chocula.

I am referring to this however. I am sure everyone saw it and remember the plots of individual episodes..

(You'd have to be between the ages of say 43 to 48 to be in the sweet spot)

OK confession time - I do know both the Count Duckula TV show and the Count Chocula cereal. But there was also a Count Chocula ice cream in Perth in the 80's.

I reckon the Count Chocula might have been available at the tuck shop across the road when I was at Mount Barker primary in the late 1980s.
There was no canteen as I recall and you had to cross the road at a crosswalk to go to the Deli if you wanted something at lunchtime. A practise that would probably be frowned upon now. The building is still there (although the crosswalk is gone).

Crosswalk? Luxury.

We had to cross flowing river filled with shark to go buy frozen mud on stick.

Round Four - Away vs the OOFs

1708995118298.png

Hey Wazzas, time to tell it like it is. Or was, idk.

Round four saw us travel to Spotswood to face an OOF franchise that was coming off the bye after winning their first two games. You remember the OOFs - the newest franchise that the sim decided to bestow success upon early doors, which turned a vanity project into a cult. The week had its ups and downs, but in the end false bravado fueled by events outside of your control is nothing when compared to the knowledge that a strong team is not built on a hivemind and the whim of a random simulator. On the contrary, it is built despite these things.

We eventually made it to another rainy game day, and for a change we were afforded a decent run in the first quarter. Or most of one at least, with a 24 point lead whittled down to six by the first change, and then to four points by the half. That's where the run finished, as the sim gave the hosts nine second half goals to our four because the hosts continue to be kissed on the [INSERT GENDER-RELEVANT BIT] and they ended up with a near-game high 30 point margin at the final siren.

Our third loss in four games (and eighth of our past nine) means we drop two spots to 11th.

pantskyle (21 disposals/4 tackles/3 goals) had a day out, while FootyGuy13 (19 disposals/6 marks/4 tackles) TheInjuryFactory (18 disposals/6 marks) & Piggy Smalls (20 disposals/4 marks/2 tackles) all did alright in the guts. The Filth Wizard recaptured some of his previous form with 4 goals from 4 kicks, while Freofalcon (13 disposals/9 marks) keeps clunking them down back. The rest of us got moved around like peas on an 11-year old's dinner plate.

Hey Wazzas, happy day to you.

Got a riddle for you. What's bigger - a half ton of spuds or 50 spuds? It's huge in terms of weight, a lot in terms of number of chips but it's a drop in the ocean for SFA games. In terms of our very own spudmaster though, it's a helluva start! Dinsdale found him sometime after the end of season 33 and convinced him to try out at Van Cortlandt Park and our sack of spuds hasn't looked back ever since. And this week he brings up his 50th game in the persimmon of Coney Island.

spudmaster is my favourite vegetable based lifeform I've ever met. Congrats in your 50th, may your 1st premiership be not too far away, simhousery notwithstanding.
Cheers Dinsy. Am thrilled you had the desperation foresight to throw my name up a few seasons ago as I would never have known about this whole new world that existed otherwise, despite having spent considerable time on the supercoach board located literally 2cm above it :drunk: I can't wait to find out whether our first flag comes before or after we finish that THHGTTG text-based game.

Cheers Tiffy, aye quick-as heck if you can tolerate me, or a real long slog otherwise :laughv1: I'm going to interpret the pic as you nurturing me through my first few seasons as opposed to you rudely digging up my late rellies! Na bugger that, "we're due a win!"...right?
