Wonder if he posts now?

Certainly would be interesting.

Anyone ever called out since to see if he responds?

Grant, you there?

I'm not sure if GT was ever on the forum; I was talking about the Saints chat.

But I'm almost certain his son was a regular poster here on the forum back around 2004 or 2005?

GT and Rod both visited Saints chat semi regularly- late evenings in fact very late evenings when they still sued to visit each others homes to plot the future of the Team-- new years eve....

He's still around but Statsman was my early favorite who we don't see so much now

Davo was the scoop man again around but not so much

I did enjoy the carlton guy that used to post here timberwolf?

Joffaburns was quite level headed too

I do remember that was trying to work out his nickname I kept saying to my self "Bunington" but he said it's just BUNG IT ON!!

Yeah it was certainly going in 1999. I reckon I signed up the year before that because I remember thinkng the following year would be a case of closing the quotes - 66saints99.

Last I heard of bungiton, he was doing a saturday morning spot on radio here in Perth. a few years back............really funny man.

I wasn't at the function (before my time at Western Saints) but was told he once did a stand up comedy act at one of the earlier Western Saints functions , was in the Tim Watson era...... I think he took the p1ss out of coach and wasn't invited back to do anymore!!

He used to regularly do stand up comedy in Perth. He did go over to Sydney for some radio gig eventually came back to Perth, then appears to have disappeared into who knows where......................... please come back bungiton; the humour on here is lesser since you've been gone.

I loved the way he used to prick the pomposity of the know alls ( the hindsight types) on this site. He reeled them in beautifully, he used to PM me and say watch me suck this minnow in.............. I often felt guilty aiding and abetting him, but it was fun.

It was a time when a few posters had mulitple identities, Bungi had two I know of, can't recall the other at the moment but it will come back to me.

Holly Valance was a favourite of mine. I often think Dr Spaceman might be him/her re-icarnated............... are you Spacey?????

Statsman was the one I respected the most for football analysis. Also Scoop, I always took notice of what they posted, they were like senior statesmen of the site................... wise counsel. And of course Davo027, as you knew he was on the inside, but he never reverted to gossip or opinion only dealt with timely factual info about our Saints.

In fact, I think Grant Thomas used to drop by off his own accord every now and then which was fantastic.

Yes GT started going onto the Saints chat site when it started, wasn't allowed to come on Saintsational anymore because the Saints now had an official chat site which controlled by Telsta at that time. I think the bombers was the only club that wasn't caught up in the Telstra AFL deal at that time.

Grant Thomas was posting on this forum well before there was ever a Saints chat.

He went on the Saints chat because he was no longer allowed to post on this forum by the Club. It was when the Saints chat was started on the official AFL Saints site.

Clay (Casius) remained posting on this forum after GT had to cease.

The lad stopped when GT left the Saints when all the personal crap used to be posted about his Dad on this site by certain cowardly cyber wimps................ you know the numnuts, the ones who haven't got the language or analytical skills to criticise constructively and just spew forth with endless verbal diarrhoea.

I was there. I used to correct Spelly's (rare) mistakes!

My favourite post was Loris talking about Carl Ditterich's legs......Very Moist!

Roger still can't find the GREEN button to turn his computer on. He has to get someone to find it for him every time

He was lurking the other day. Can't have had anything to say !!

I remember getting permission from Mrs Roger to supply him with scores from a practice match during their Son's wedding

had to have her permission because he couldn't work out the SMS thingy

Bungiton.

Moist.

LOL he was a ripper.

BigMart · Post: # 1171758Post **BigMart** » Tue 01 Nov 2011 7:27pm

I started in pre draft 2001....whilst looking into the Ball, Judd, Hodge profiles I stumbled upon sainters.com and from there found saintsational...

Bungiton an myself had some absolutely massive donnybrooks.... and at one stage i think were meeting up to exchange some views....never happened

we always made up, and I thought he was hilarious....he never had an ego, but a wit that could easily humiliate...

Statsman was the poster who I thought had the best handle on footy.....rarely wrong

Barks4eva hit his absolute peake in 2006/07.....some of his threads went for 20 pages

Sainter On Line or something like that was that abbusive and personal in his posts that I quit posting for 8 months....after I had my say on Justin Sweeney in which he took offense... one of only a handful of posters I have found to be nasty

and Grant did post on SS at least once...maybe twice
under the name of Cassius in about 2005
