Official Match Thread Season 36 Round 6 - Sin City Swamprats v Roys FFC @ Underground Stadium

[okeydoke7]

Team success comes first, not individual milestones - apart from me winning the Fred Medal .

You’re getting good at this.

The ego bit. Not the actual goal scoring bit.

I've had just 1 go at it - if I'm right, my career average at full forward is already higher than yours.......

The SwampRats team bus was driving down a deserted stretch of the Princes Highway when the driver #okeydokey7 saw a sign that said 'Gorillas of Mercy House of Prostitution - 15kms'.

Being a bit tired, the driver, #okeydokey7, thought little of it, must have read some of the words wrong he thought.....

Not too long though he saw another sign that said 'Gorillas of Mercy House of Prostitution - 8kms'.

This time he blinked a bit and realised the sign was real!

When he drove up to a third sign saying 'Gorillas of Mercy House of Prostitution - Turn Right'. the team's curiosity was getting the better of them, so #philreich pleaded with and convinced #okeydokey7 to pull right, and into the driveway.

Along the drive was a parking lot with a big stone building at the end. They all piled out with #RodneyDangerfield saying he could see a small sign up some stairs next to a rather large door. It simply said, "Gorillas of Mercy".

Looking left and right to see if he was being watched #jackster83, he and his team slowly climbed the stairs, saw a small doorbell next to the sign - and rang it.

The door was answered by a rather ugly Nun in the customary black habit who said, "What can we do for you, my sons?"

#Firestarter yelled from the back of the pack "we saw your signs along the highway and was interested in...... possibly doing some business?"

"Very well, my sons, please follow me", answered the big ugly Nun.

The Swamprats were led through what seemed to be a number of winding passages and a few of them started to mumble about feeling a bit uneasy and disoriented, when suddenly the big ugly Nun stopped at a closed door. She knocked twice, then once more. Another large ugly Nun emerged holding a silver cup and said, "each please place $50 in this cup and then go through the large double doors at the end of this hall where you will be amazed".

They eagerly looked at the large double doors, took $50 out of their wallets, placed it in the cup and scurried to the end of the hall, and slipped through a door as a group, #firestarter pulling it shut behind them.

As they heard the door click and their eyes adjusted they noticed they were back in another part of the parking lot facing another small sign. The sign read:


You Have All Just Been Screwed
by the Roys Football Club,
just like you will be again this weekend!

Are they all in mint condition?

I think the Perth Mint will vouch for them

 

[Phar Ace]

Ugh. Mixing them together would be worse than that time somebody split atomic nucleii and then used the resultant reaction as a weapon. Am I right Elmer_Judd

.........at the risk of repeating yourself

Absolutely. Some things in life are not worth thinking about ugh #BoycottMint

Have you not heard of Melbourne weather before now ???

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Thanks for that Fonz.

This is what I thought of when I heard about Ken's contract extension with Port



What a blessing

 

[Zevon]

Have you not heard of Melbourne weather before now ???

I have. That’s why I was pleasantly surprised at how nice it is

 

[TedDougChris]

I have. That’s why I was pleasantly surprised at how nice it is

Just wait 5 minutes, we will fix that !!!

 

[TedDougChris]

That is one of the all time useless stats there from 7.

My volleyball team mates used to call me Channel Seven, because of my terrible network.

Mobbs how do you go singing "Good old Winston Grange Forever"? I reckon that would make me sick

It does, so I don't.

Regardless of tomorrow night's result, I still think that Michael Voss deserves a bit of credit for becoming the first coach since James Hird to get Carlton into the finals.

I amazed Phil. This one seems to have slipped through to the keeper. Very disappointed.

 

[philreich]

Long way to go in this one - could still go either way.

tigs2010 tagged me into a thread on the Richmond board that clearly said “No opposition supporters” and being the fine upstanding bigfooty citizen I am, I carefully checked the thread title and obeyed board rules recklessly forged ahead and posted without realising Silly me thought it was our match thread.

It’s all that troublemaker tigs fault

One of the great stitch ups. Going to do it again in the other no oppo thread

You didn’t even see the best of it. I did a whole other long post politely replying to somebody who said train drivers get paid a lot Sheepishly deleted it when I realised, but left the other one up

Wait till you see what we’ve got for Sydney tonight. I’m scared to go outside and see if it’s as bad as predicted
