Official Match Thread Season 27. Round 6: Roys FFC vs Las Vegas Bears @ Brunswick Junction Oval

[RU_]

RU_ kidding me! No way!

 

[3KZ is Football]

I was being ironic.

 

[JoshWoodenSpoon]

So between Broken and RU_, the Roys have some reasonable intel on the Bears. Sausages, we'll need your best espionage work this week to get the competitive edge. What's going on in these cafés?? Are all these hipsters agents of the old rusted-on geezers?? IMO this place could use a strong lick of the ol' gentrification brush!!

What is it with you guys and brushes? You've given Baghdad the incompetence brush, yourselves the denialism brush and I hear you're taking the radical step of giving the Swamprats a toothbrush.

I don't much understand the latter half, but with regard to the former:

If you are above a certain age and grew up in Melbourne, this phrase is one of the sounds of football....

Have you boys got your dickety back yet?

My back is still rickety from the other day. It went out while I was on the lounge and hasn’t returned yet....

I'm glad we're not playing in Las Vegas this week. Personally there was a time where I was welcomed, as a player, spectator or opposition. Now, the young cubs and their passive agressive bravado have me feeling unwelcome. I'm like Dirk Diggler in the carpark trying to turn tricks for recognition.
Im hearing stories they're taking down the libraries as they know all they need to know and they recognise any Bears seasons, bar the original ones and latest few years, as the Dark Ages. The Taliban has spread from Baghdad it seems.

I'm glad we're playing at the BJO this week. Unlike Las Vegas, it's weirdly comfortable to know the shit stinks here. The chuds are flowing and the nurses are on hand. But more importantly we're undefeated here this season.

I should warn you that we're on the up. We won the last three quarters against Baghdad and drew with the Baghdad reserves side. Watch us come out and kick eight goals in the first quarter (and lose).

That's our MO. We led the Furies by 6 goals at 3/4 time last week and only kicked a behind in the last quarter to narrowly hold on to our first win by 5 points.

I had you pencilled in as 27ish late 50’s, I knew I wasn’t far off!

The chuds aren't flowing yet. Need to restockulate. We kind of went hard at it after the Furies win. royboy2 was even drinking them warm! Everybody knows a chudshake shouldn't be warm. They should be hot. Like my legs.

My theory is we all have to grow old but you can stay immature.

Pretty sure that's why we are all here.
Except Reardo. This is super serious.

Was that about the same time as Harry Beitzel and Tommy Lahiff?
I remember Tommy down on the ground and Harry up in the box and you'd hear, "can ya hear me Harry"?

That's disputable. ( © ClarkeM )
