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

[Broken]

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 was 3AW wasn't it?

 

[Test Tickle]

That was 3AW wasn't it?

Yeah i think so, 3AW and 3KZ opposing stations.

 

[TedDougChris]

Sounds like your couch needs to go for a run

It’s got 4 legs, why not !!

 

[3KZ is Football]

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

Absolutely.

 

[Mobbs]

Absolutely.

Where I grew up I mostly only heard "Better Music, 3WM", but definitely "3kz is football" was synonymous with listening in Melbourne.

 

[Test Tickle]

Its not true that the Roys are to old to play qooty is it?

Where else would I go?
Are you finally kicking me out? I've dreaded this day.

 

[fitzroybowiedog]

Not too old to play, definitely too old to win....

 

[Test Tickle]

Not too old to play, definitely too old to win....

Yeah that's so true, so if Wonders and Furies win this week then you guys will be on the bottom of the ladder.

As a community service, I advise the easiest routes available for travel from the Stadium In The Sky to the Brunswick Junction Oval.
Red arrows delineate the two most direct options by foot, the yellow indicates the Sweet Metro Underground Transit rail route.

Thanks but we don't use Rail or Walk, we have our own transport.

Looks like I'll need a snorkle for some of that trip.

You still need roads for your limursine, don't you?

Please explain.

Just like last week.

 

[fitzroybowiedog]

He's on a boat.

 

[Test Tickle]

Glad you asked.

 

[Mobbs]

He's on a boat.

Good luck to him. Dunno how he plans to move it on land ...

 

[Broken]

The path/rail goes under the river.

 

[Mobbs]

The path/rail goes under the river.

It's a chunnel.

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!!

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.

Well, it's funny you mention that JWS - I've just now finished making this week's Star Wars video, and it ties in with earlier comments by Mobbs regarding Chudshakes^TM.

There's a chud issue afoot, which will be cleared up in the soon to be posted Star Wars video (it's rendering now).

As far as Roys intel goes though - I'm a little hamstrung, because many of my street level contacts around the BJO are frightened of old school pimphustlerog's like Mobbs, 3KZ, Broken - and I think many of these contacts are playing both sides. So, I'm not sure how much I can trust them, because anything they tell me will likely have come from the Roys LG.

It reminds me of the time I was in Algiers, and our contact there gave us good intel, GREAT intel, that an attack was being planned by the ISF. When we raided the address, there was nothing there - 2 hours later, an explosion rocked the city and another group claimed responsibility. Our contact disappeared, our operation was a failure and the DGSE in Paris laughed at us Lesson learned....when dealing with old institutions, they usually have shit secured so tight, it's hard to get a clear picture of what's happening.

*Edit - I know the Roys FFC are very protective of their IP as regards all things chud, so I did some research into the history of chud/chudshakes/Roys FFC et al, and have come up with a video that (after about 10 re-writes) I think is both topical (using Mobbs' remarks on the dearth of chud as inspiration) and historical (referencing something I read on the Sweet FA wiki).

I thought we use plane this week.

 

[JoshWoodenSpoon]

I thought we use plane this week.

Noise pollution. We only have air clearance outside of nap time.
What they don't know is the bus is louder than the plane.

 

[Sausages]

I thought we use plane this week.

I did too Xen - who knows, Testy likes to keep us guessing......he's our very own Happy Hogan
