It went something like this.
1. Armo was playing his role as defensive forward deep in the North half of the field.
2. Razor Ray bounced it. He bounced it with passion and style. And the ball rose.
3. The bounce soared towards the Etihad roof, defying gravity as it pierced the cool Melbourne night.
4. Armo unleashed his steel springs* and tore towards the centre square. Run Armo Run.
5. As Armo crossed the line into the centre square, Big Ben got a hand to the ball and slapped it in the direction of Brett Harvey.
6. Who stepped aside to let Armo get the ball.**
7. Who then registered said "clearance".
8. This provoked untold rage and discontent among the faithful at saintsational, some who will still dispute this version of events. However, fans of the "Armo's clearance" Facebook page still sing songs long into the night celebrating this great event.
* People that were there swear they heard the feint sound of Vangelis over the hushed Kangaroos crowd.
** this actually happened. See Armo's goal in the 2nd term.
STRENGTH THROUGH LOYALTY.

Thought you would like the idea of three forums , can build your posts up and also make that post 10 mins into a game were doomed and then the hindsight post of what Ross should have done !!! Gold ....BigMart wrote:Finally...some wit into this rubbish thread...
I like the idea of three forums....it would be impossible for plugger to be monitoring all three.....100% of the time.
Although Armo achieved the impossible.....or did he
Jack Newnes happy to be a Saint !!!! PS and to hit a target !!!
A cant believe someone would actually start a thread because their ego has been pricked and somebody disagreed with them.
Of course you can see more at the game. However if you all you do is ball watch you cant get an overall idea of the play.
TV will give you a very good coverage of the play but again it is, of course centred on the ball play and the periphy is not seen.
Really, both ways of watching the game gives a different perspective.
Sheesh.

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

How is it we can't win another flag, with so many f****** geniuses here?
Surely the club are monitoring every thread in order to fully utilise this amazing resource.
Oh, and there should be a separate forum for any one that utters the name "Vangelis", no matter how small the font.

I dont think i know anymore than the next bloke, but if you think so.....
However, I do get amused by the comments like
"were you at the game"
As a ridiculous argument.....which was trotted about by some obvious posters....especially when they are clutching at straws..
Ego's
That much of a concern....i know zero people, the same know mean

What about just one forum with a QUOTE button.... Then people would be as to see the reference post.
Wait. Hold the press. One already exists.
Top right hand corner amigo. Starting to get frustrating.

I never thought I'd actually feel it, let alone state it.
I miss the internet personna that was rodgerfox!
At least dodgy had some intellect and intelligence when arguing/debating/fishing/trolling.
Unfortunately in his absence we get posters like BigSaintMartEgo.
Someone who is so determined to prove to the rest of the forum that what is glaringly obvious, his pathological need to be viewed as an expert on AFL football, that he continues to post nonsensical, illogical and often laughable comments that only his most strident accolytes accept.
Someone who when challenged often changes what he claims to have been stated in a pathetic attempt to justify his inability to grasp simple concepts, like reading and comprehension.
Maybe we should all not renew our memberships/reserved seats next year?
Afterall the 'annointed one' has intimated we don't really need to be at the game to understand all the finer nuances of what is happening.
Maybe the Radio Stations should save the millions of dollars they spend on broadcasting live from the ground?
They can get the same information just from commentating on what the television stations are broadcasting.
As an aside, I'm looking for some assistance.
Would somebody please translate this for me:-

Man, I reckon you guys are rough on BigMart.
I agree with some of his views, and not on others. And I must say, I don't take any umberidge to his posting style at all.
I honestly can't see what the fuss is about.
I just think that sometimes, people need to remember that this is a footy forum.
It's literally the place for people to express opinions on the footy.
