Official Match Thread Season 22 Round 7: Fighting Furies v Mount Buller Demons @ Punt Road

[Rodney Dangerfield]

On a more important matter lion around I've just whacked you in my fantasy team so I'll permit you to rack up big numbers, but in a losing team.
Thanks in advance.

Sorry I always get those two confused.

and it's worked a treat, let it be said..

 

[tgrs]

Wow. tl;dr?

C'mon mate, really? It's not a good look, shouldn't lie about these things @smartyspowe you have plenty of time at your disposal on the bench.

...And that was the best comment you could come up with after reading through my statement multiple times. Wow.

It's not just a username, it's a lifestyle.

It's good to keep the intended target guessing.

Well, you prefer to play the short game as you never leave the goal square, so I'm guessing you modelled it on this...

...and not this...

 

[_Cayz_]

I modelled my game on Courtney Johns

I modeled mine on Relton Roberts.

I spend most of my time on the bench eating burgers.

I came into the league with a similar mindset.

Based my game of off Hutchy, get loose and let it all hang out is my motto.

IIRC, in my recruitment application to Wacky Tiger I stated that my qualifications, in part, consisted of being able to talk more than an extended family of blaboonatics at a 10-keg christening.
He found it endearing.

I'm pretty sure that how Tyrone Vickery got drafted so early too

 

[Deaneus!]

It's not just a username, it's a lfstyl.

FTFY

(also has no vowels)

 

[Mother Russia]

Apparently not as tense as Mother Russia's donkey though

Hardest erection in Siberia. Holds my Yaranga up in the wind part of the days.

 

[Azarole]

Jump on SFA and see a bunch of posts about donkey erections. Love it. So does brucetiki

WOAH INSIGHTFUL AND CREATIVE RESPONSE.

This whole post is actually ridiculously accurate - kudos.

The worst part of your return was you came back. Am I doing this right?

I guess so, on the assumption that the 'right' way is just sort of mindless banter. I mean, we're all essentially anonymous 'identities' on a virtual football forum, so I don't know if there's a 'right' way as such. But for what it is, I don't think you're doing anything hugely unconventional or anything like that. I'm sort of flattered that you realised I came back, though.

Wow no vowels insult how unique buddy!

Yeah, it wasn't great. I was just trying to fit in, to be honest.

I'm now actually glad you returned this week, otherwise we would have missed out on some priceless banter, oh no...wait...this has been said by the least intelligent member of each team every week when they're struggling to think of anything to say.

I debuted in Season 07 but have never been hugely active. I couldn't tell you much about the SFA or any of the most well-known 'players'. If you really pushed me, I could probably name about four of my teammates. Am I still captained by EBIAC? I don't even know. So I guess it's a natural thing to head straight to the usernames of whoever has posted recently; I don't have a heap of other stuff on which to base 'banter'. Y'know? Like, I can't really participate in in-jokes or anything, because I'm not in any particular 'in-group'. I probably do fit the "least intelligent member of each team" tag, though, so I'm glad that I could at least follow that tradition.

I'll just try and adopt your bantering techniques again now...I understand in your extended absence you've honed them significantly away from the cancerous input of your teammates and it's certainly paying off here mate, you've wrecked me with your rapier like wit. Can you tell me is this the correct way to banter?

Not entirely sure what you're getting at here.

Considering your username I'm surprised you have eyes to read the computer screen, the brain to remove vowels from a sentence and the mouth to be sucking Van_Power off.

But then I remembered it's just a username and people choose a range of non-sensical things to call themselves.

Which, to be honest, seems like an easy thing to understand yet here you are having such difficulty with it.

Good point. I'm not overly fond of my own username, I must say. I've realised that I come to the SFA now and then to try to make up for my own severe lack of success in football. The highest level I got to was playing for my primary school when I was twelve. I played on a half-forward flank. I think I would have averaged about two tackles, one handball and maybe half a kick. I remember one time, I took a mark, but the siren had sounded about a second earlier, so I couldn't take my kick. I was pretty upset. And then I can't say I've experienced a huge range of success supporting Melbourne, so the SFA is a nice little place to sort of talk yourself up.

I appreciate your response; it's certainly made me think. All the very best for the weekend. Cheers.

Smartys Power how about an appropriate tl;dr for this post right here. And whilst your at it acknowledge my spectacular tagging capabilities mate.

FOR SMARTY - THIS IS WHERE IT ENDS BEING ABOUT YOU MATE, YOU CAN PUT THE TRANSLATOR BACK ON THE SHELF.


Any return to qooty is remembered, always, especially when you won't stop harking on about it...but I see we reached the same conclusions that lent to a predisposition for fantasy football; my footy career was perhaps even just a tad less inspiring than yours.

I beg to differ that we're all essentially anonymous; despite this being my Rookie season (I know, impressive right?) I can tell you in confidence that Gooch Juice™ has offered a multi year, numerous figure salary for a sponsorship deal that's validated my virtual typings more than any physical presence on a footy pitch ever did.

And just in case there is always that premium name change...@Close Contest Marto @numbersstergenumbers

I've found a kindred spirit on the Demons, great stuff mate. All on the back of insulting each other too. Gotta love Qooty.
