Re: Mods on Big Footy
Cue Curly, it was clearly a point.
There were at least 3 free kicks in the last two minutes not paid to us by the cheating umpires trying to rob us of a win.

Re: Mods on Big Footy
People who say Jones’ kick was clearly out of bounds have got no clue.
And the AFL have no clue. SCHWARZE FFS!

I also remember New Breed Security....weren't they involved in the infamous Tunnel nightclub vs the off duty Cops fight circa 1990?

It’s very close in my opinion. The field umpire was in very good position and put up one hand to indicate a point.

AJ told me he was pissed about it as he should have kicked a goal. He was quite proud of the fact that they changed the height of the point post because of his kick.
I was then going to broach his last game and who was supposed to be on A Schneider but I thought I better not push it.

The ball swung significantly but mostly after it passed the post.
The lack of a goal line camera angle means we will never know for sure.

Re: Mods on Big Footy
Can't remember the poster, but I still think one of the funniest things I've ever seen on a forum was when some arsehat blew a fuse and labelled the entire board muppets because they wouldn't agree with him. There was a mad scramble and three quarters of the board ended up with muppets in Saints colours as their avatars, and there were debates over who could be which muppet!!

Re: Mods on Big Footy
Now that I am entering into my dotage, I find that I have a photographic memory for irrelevant stuff from the past, but I can't remember anything useful like where I parked the car.
Anyway, according to my memory, it was a poster who called himself CarlosA who called everyone "muppets." There was a poster who called himself Cowboy something or other who used his avatar of a muppet in Saints' gear for many years afterwards.
