I never look at Bucky (through use of a recommended function) but Trev is always worth a giggle. I have no bone to pick with TO but avoid any of his political or geocentric posts.

I don't think I miss much by not reading TO's rubbish. And that dates back to C4 days.

Yeah, I think he took offence to a reference I made to supporters at some grounds being effectively forced to stand around knee deep in shit due to lack of facilities at some grounds.

Why stop at one?

I'd back that crowd against your long line of 'new Bothams' any day of the week - even though your NBs would have no trouble raising the numbers despite ours having a 40-year head start.

Do the names Phil DeTritus, Chris Lewis FFS,. Derek Pringle or David Capel ring any bells? Me neither.....

Indeed, Nerky, any list with Dougie, Chappellg and Punter in it ain't that bad a list . . . .

by Fred Nerk Sat 06 Dec 2008, 04:05

That lot Trev nominated have 97 Test centuries between them and two of them are still playing. Maybe we could run a sweep, who gets no 100 and where?

Punter, MCG v the Saffies

by Fred Nerk Sat 06 Dec 2008, 04:19

If it gets to Sydney you can back Punter in - his SCG record is excellent, Clarke has yet to make a Test 40 at home. Punter SCG.

you forgot the original one - Norm O'Neill who, incidentally, once shagged Princess Margaret.

by Fred Nerk Sat 06 Dec 2008, 11:16

Yeah and I once caught a train at Flinders Street Station and on that basis I can claim to about as unique as Norm.

Did Norm and Bradman also have this in common?

Sad to re-read this thread about Phil Hughes.

I can't really see why Trev ever thought that PH looked like Brad Haddin.

by Bradman Wed 04 May 2016, 06:36

According to some of the era the only thing that Bradman ever thought about farking were his own team mates.

by skully Wed 04 May 2016, 07:34

Oooh, I dunno, q. He farked the opposition many, many times. In fact, most times when he went in to bat.
