Sometimes when I'm ranting away at the footy I hide my bigfooty user name in case people behind me see it and want my autograph

Well I am glad your not a moderator anymore.

You would of used your moderator powers to get the bigfooty equivalent of the police dogs on here lol

Beatle and Mop, the gang's all here!

I remember going to do preseason writeups in like 2008 and having coffee with Beatle in Claremont.
Good times. Much younger and Moppier times.

Well he isn't.

As far as I'm concerned, the only Freo fan that was ever welcome in the RDT was Shibz. and maybe Chops when he was behaving.

Speaking of, poor dude Chops man...

 

[kane249]

What ever happened to Chops?

 

[Mop]

What ever happened to Chops?

Took off to Argentina for a few years. Came back quite recently.
I don't want to say too much in the public domain but recently had a horrendous life changing accident. He's currently dealing with that

 

[Luuuc]

Horrendous, yes, but I don't know if I'd classify a Flagmantle forehead tattoo as an "accident"

 

[Farang83150]

Pissed down big time last night, love it.

Well it's better than having Fremantle Dockers for premiers tattoo on your ball sack LoL

What was that show on ABC back in the day where the main star was that eagles fan?

Everyone loves the wet season

Everyone loves the wet season

Dunno how you live in that humidity. A week or so on a holiday I can only just handle, it's so gross.

 

[Mop]

I do love humidity.

 

[Farang83150]

Absolutely love it, but I've lived in a tropical climate for near on 36 years now (Darwin 10/Thailand 26), I can literally feel the moisture being sucked out of me when ever we come back to Perth to visit the family!

Had to be in Dawin for two days once for work in August. Otherwise I lived in the hotel pool, which actually left me drier than standing around outside.

 

[beatlesmith]

Not me, but jeez - haven’t seen you on BF for a while - how are ya

Likewise! It has certainly been a while! I mostly just lurk now.

The team’s performance no longer fills me with the righteous indignation that I need to get into arguments with strangers, nor the optimism to contribute to discussion about the future - it just makes me sad.

I tend to become more active during rebuilds so I’ll probably be back more regularly soon.

Beatle and Mop, the gang's all here!

Serious pangs of nostalgia!

They were good times. From memory we met at the first pre-season training following the 2008 draft. You were the first to get Shuey’s signature and I was the first to get Naitanui’s, or vice-versa. To think that they are now at the tail end of their careers is making me feel old.

"Oh I can just catch the bus to the office from the hotel", she said naively.

It's amazing how much the season's have moved here, used to get surf after storms around mid-september through until late November, now getting it as early as late March/early April, weather patterns are so different now.

Rebuilds are the best time for Bigfootying - just like when it all started eh? Full circle.

08 sounds about right - I started going at the end of 07 from memory.

Sorry to break it to you mate, but I got Naitanui’s (and his Wet Fish handshake). You got Tom Swift. “He’s gonna be a star”
were your words. Remember Beau Wilkes had to go grab them out of the change room for us? Good times

To your credit, getting coffee I think the training session after, you also said we should draft Nat Fyfe next year because he’s 100% gonna be elite. You called that.

I also remember you’re an Arsenal fan. Still unfortunate that part
