What's different about Dal?

[Dr Spaceman]

Back on the '60s there was a rumour that Paul McCartney of The Beatles died in a car crash and was secretly replaced with a look-alike...mmmm

But Dal looks nothing like Paul McCartney........ so we can throw that answer out the window.

And furthermore, Paul McCartney looks nothing like Dal.

This just gets weirder by the minute

***thread resurrection***


This Dal double/stand in/replacement goes alright... Still doesn't look or sound exactly like Dal V1.0. Definitely needs to work on his lisp...

Yeah Yeah Yeah

I just realized there could be some truth in a different Dal, starting in GF 1 last year.

The number 26 for St Kilda in that game was staging for free kicks in a most un-Dal like manner.

And I just realized the B side of the early Beatles backing single 'My Bonnie', was 'The Saints Go Marching In'...

I am now going to play Sgt Pepper backwards - rumour has it the mysterious, prophetic words 'Santo Nick Dal' can be heard mumbled by (the fake?) Paul.

In certain parts of Bendigo, this translates to 'Nick sleeps with the fishes'...

I don't think Chips is involved in the coverup unless he, like me, has WAY too much time on his hands...

by simply typing Paul McCartney's name, alongside Dal's number into google you get all the proof you need on the very first link.

26 December 1965

In what would become one of the key 'clues' in the 'Paul is dead' myth, on this day Paul McCartney suffered a moped accident while visiting his family in Liverpool.

McCartney fell from his moped and chipped a front tooth. He also cut his lip and was left with a scar.

ladies and gentlemen i rest my case.

for those of you skeptics who still are not entirely convinced i ask you this....
have you ever seen Nick Dal Santo and Paul McCartney in the same room together??

Not in the same room, no.

But I have seen them playing kick to kick together. Does that count?

Paul woulda needed someone to kick with. His ex missus wouldn't have been much good.

The clues are numerous - check out some Beatle songs that allude to the truth:

Dal Tripper
No Rooply
A Dal In The Life
Get Nick
Santolution
I Am The Dalrus
Happiness Is A BJ Pass

Time for my beddy bye, methinks...

IS DAL DEAD?

St.Kilda Football Club has gone into bubble mode today, following Saintsational claims that one of their star players is in fact, dead, and a doppelganger has taken his place for the last 2 seasons. With a summer of turmoil barely behind them, with issues like massive toll hikes for the Seaford road, and problems with the resinous quality of Saints car stickers, this latest furore was the last thing needed.

Nick Dal Santo is a member of the Fab Four, the popular name for the Saints midfield, also called The Saintles. Dal Santo has been in brilliant form this year and forms, with team-mates Leigh Montagna, Brendon Goddard and David Armitage, an imposing quartet known as:

Joey Dal BJ and Armo...

Our roving reporter, G.F. Payne, filed this remarkable story...

'Yes, earlier today, when this news broke, I spoke to an insider from St.Kilda fotball club, who had contacted me with 'vital clues to the whole masquerade'.
This informer didn't wish to be named - though his real name is Thomas Grant - and was indeed a shadowy creature. We met deep in the bowels, literally, of a Greater Moorabbin toilet block, that hadn't been cleaned since late in the last quarter of the 1997 Grand Final.

My informant said the charade had started back in 2008, when Dal Santo was dropped to the Springvale side for poor form. Grant insists the body double was inserted here after the real Dal Santo accidentally suffered an allergic reaction to 'playing in the twos'.

Ok, I told this miserable angry man, say we accept this...where's the evidence?
He laughed and produced a tattered Saints newsletter. It was the famous cover of the above mentioned Fab Four, crossing the road outside Moorabbin, on the anniversary of the Blight sacking. Known later as 'Linton Street' in AFL circles, this picture has been copied many times but never surpassed as an iconic symbol.
'Ever wondered why Dal is barefoot in this picture?
I said its common knowledge that becasue he lived so close, he chose to wear no shoes.
Ah, but why is BJ dressed as a gravedigger?
What? He's wearing jeans and a t-shirt!
Ah, but why are Joey and Armo wearing mourning suits?
I'd hardly call tracksuit pants 'mourning suits!
Look at the number plate of the Commodore parked nearby.
28IF...so?
Dal's age...28. IF he had lived.
Ha! Great info buddy. Dal is 27 right now.
True...but Dal was a follower of Hinduism. Their beliefs are such that a human is actually one year old at birth. So Dal is...28.
This is ludicrous. You're making this up!!

Grant shook his head sadly. Non- believers...the clues are everywhere, you just have to know where to look.
Show some more then I said.
Well, the 09 and 10 Grand Finals...
Yes?
Dal didn't perform in them, did he?
No, but either did a few__
The REAL Dal wouldn't go missing in big games, would he?
Well, I...look this is all conjecture!

There's other clues...in the 09 team photo, Dal is turning slightly away from the camera. And at the B and F count that same year, Dal was the only player to wear a black carnation on his dinner suit.
Look, the world is going to need more concrete proof. People don't listen to these conspiracy theories.
Oh, haven't you been on the Net lately?

Anyway I have to go. You've received your money, now just go!
Grant leaned forward, his breath horrible, mouth uncleaned since three quarter time of the 2005 Prelim...
I have one more thing to say. Add Dal's jumper number.
I mentally calculated - 2+6= 8
Eight I said. And?
Eight...exactly...Maxie Hudghton...

I stood there stunned as he walked away laughing.

I just posted a link to this thread on a Beatle fan site I frequent. The dudes there should get a laugh from some of our comments!!

Was this kick to kick before, or after, she tried to sue Sir Paul again???

(the case, by the way, was thrown out. The judge said she didn't have a leg to stand on)

I'll get my hat and coat.......
