Official Match Thread Season 36 Round 1: Coney Island Warriors v Roys FFC @ Van Cordlandt Park

[Phar Ace]

How good was British Bulldog?

Yep, so many hours, so many bruises!

 

[Phar Ace]

Brilliant. How about build up Brandy?

Brandy, yes - but 'build up....'? Is that like how British Bulldog evolves with participants adding to the catchers?

 

[Phar Ace]

Who is the female version of buscemi

Can I nominate

Too attractive

 

[Phar Ace]

Time for food and a nap

Rookie mistake, did you untie the string?

 

[Mobbs]

Yep, Say 10 kids, 1 with tennis ball, chases and throws ball at other kids, whoever gets hit, grabs another ball from a bucket, both then hunt the other kids, and so on until 1 is left who is the winner! Absolute mahem.

I dont get it, how does it work?

Dear Mobbs,

It is now the weekend so please refrain from using the word 'work' until Monday.

Your faithfully,

Derrinal-weekend-phil

PS. The mods might get after you.

I just had a crack at it. You’ve got to select a player that fits into both the horizontal and vertical category.
I tried to be too cute and put Joel Hamling in as having played for Bulldogs and Geelong but he mustn’t have actually played at Geelong as it was deemed incorrect.

Delisted without playing a game or only ever on the rookie list, I can't remember the exact story.

Well in your case it won't help to say "how does it operate?" either.

I always hand my phone to the nearest young person and they get it to operate.

Ill give it a try but I haven't watched AFL much since the mid-90s lol. Hey someone should make a Sweet FA version!

 

[Mobbs]

Spoiler

Catdogs:
Stewart Crameri
Peter Street
Luke Dahlhaus
Shaun Higgins

Street was my pick. Tall-arse ruck from the early-mid 00s, 211cm!

Freo-Cats:
I don't know a little guy who played for both, but I went with Shane Kersten who was a big guy

 

[TedDougChris]

the one with the name

 

[Reginald Perrin]

Some of the feedback that came out of the sprint retro session that I just had to endure was that we should be mindful not to refer to a group of people as "guys" when we're presenting, as that's isn't inclusive enough. So I referred to them as "flogs", and now I'm dodging calls from HR.

Over time, the term "guys" developed into a legitimate term to address a group. Tell HR to go **** themselves.

This inclusivity/diversity nonsense we are currently experiencing shits me to tears.

TBF, that's 100% an advantage for you. Knowing anyone who played just 10 years ago means you'll get an overall low score.

Seems you missed out on all of the police raids.

Yep, Say 10 kids, 1 with tennis ball, chases and throws ball at other kids, whoever gets hit, grabs another ball from a bucket, both then hunt the other kids, and so on until 1 is left who is the winner! Absolute mahem.

Oh, imagine the arguments that would come from this!

 

[Barrels]

Why would you throw away a perfectly good cake?

 

[Barrels]

Good on you

thanks for the LoL.

years back in a meeting we were discussing a deployment to the regions, the woman PM brought up that the IT in Perth can be a bit dim,
mate Tim says: "Not Those ****ing campaigners in Perth"
PM says: "Tim, that language is unacceptable"
Tim: "Sorry, thise stupid campaigners in Perth"

a real ROFL moment...
