Official Match Thread Season 38, Round 4: Gold City Royals v Las Vegas Bears @ The Golden Throne

[Brenton Davy]

I got married at 24 so I could get a bucket list* item out of the way early.


*Bucket list: n. A list of items you might do in the hope that you kick the bucket.

Getting married/having kids was a LOOOOONG way down my bucket list

 

[Brenton Davy]

Have you guys been to the Pinball Hall of Fame in Vegas? Awesome place.

Nah. Haven’t been to Vegas for around 37 years.

Weird way to announce you own jennings

They aren't jeggings. They aren't skin tight

 

[Membling]

They aren't jeggings. They aren't skin tight

Mobility in jeans.

I am highly suspicious

 

[Chipmunk]

One of my mates asked me last week which Olympic sport would you be good at if you had the choice

I said football because you could do that for a career and earn enough, they weren’t impressed

Careful, you might be called a fogey for talking bad about jeggings

Breaking is now the only correct answer

Happy Friday everyone!

Captains run for anyone who hasn't scored a goal in the last two weeks

I had to check who hasn't scored a goal over the last 2 weeks and surprising our Full Back and Back Pocket have scored goals over the last 2 weeks while some of the forward line haven't. Some of our forwards might need to do some goal kicking practice.

I’ve been back to the US, Manila and Qatar for competition since marriage so I haven’t been completely grounded

Are you the type to buy pedal pushers and wear them unironically as a male?

Fella walked out a coffee shop with his '' jeans '' at mid-calf - I lolled

 

[GreyCrow]

Then again I let my jeans fall to my shoes

The legs people the legs

It has certainly been worse at snobby public schools but at my public coed intermediate school in 2000 the only option was still a skirt

Mind you, the boys were limited to shorts and weren’t allowed to wear skirts either

I contrast that to 2024 when my patient yesterday happily wore his school skirt into my rooms but still proudly confirmed he/him pronouns (also being a birth assigned male). I was pleasantly surprised but happy/relieved to hear that he isn’t being bullied.

Unfortunately it depends on the school & their community. I currently work at a school that still has some gendered nature to our uniform.

Girls are allowed to wear skirts, their school dress or school pants—- however the school pants are only a male cut style. Therefore the majority of girls refuse to wear them.

How much life would be soo much easier if School Council changed the uniform policy to allow track pants & t-shirts (or collared t-shirts rather than the white dress shirt) for both genders. Remove the need to follow up on uniform if students are comfortable wearing it correctly

 

[GreyCrow]

Smartys Power hello

Saturday we are enemies and on Sunday we unite to crush the real enemy

Bears - I hate em - always shitting in the woods where I walk

Thanks for sharing your experience.

At my mum’s school, the uniform is simply the school polo top (that comes in both relaxed and fitted styles) and bring your own plain black chinos. Your suggestion of a t shirt/top and track pants would work just as well if not better (as having standardised pants removes the class/brand elements).

I will say one thing

It was easier to spot the kids to bully on the bus

My real enemy is the Pope. Always being catholic and shit.

 

[MWPP]

I basically live in jeans, wear them all the time at work. When I buy a pair I always make sure I can do a full squat in them

I certainly wore them a lot (almost daily) in my early uni days as my job at the time and my non-placement contact time meant they were the perfect go to

At least he shits in his hat
