Proceedings will once again be opened by Eleni Glouftsis (OAM) Fan Club President, saynt Nosher Powell.
After another (even shorter) introduction from Firey, the stage will be handed over for the keynote address. This will once again be given ZZ's resident giver, Eleni Glouftsis Tee (OAM) Fan Club patron and number one ticket holder, SS's favourite purveyor, Vortemort PhD (Piledhigher&Deeper).
Vort will once again be making the special trip down from Cairns FnQ for the occasion. (Word is, he'll be staying in Moorabbin, man.) Topics will include the usual ... white arm bands, unisex toilets, and the power of on-line surveys, chess mastery, balls, how to be a student of the game, pairs of balls, diplomacy, objectivity, repeaters, pairs of balls hanging, tightrope walking for fun and fitness, and much much more. Plus, probably some more really really bad dad jokes.
Speaking of mastery, chess mastery, as a special treat, Vortemort will continue to add to the sample size of his unbroken 'run' run against young Loris. Onya Vort!
And everyone's favourite, Mick Thomas, will once again be taking the wide open road from Wellard all the way back to Melbourne, still hoping for a decent cup of coffee. But also, to deliver a tribute to the Eleni Glouftsis Tee (OAM) Fan Club's newest life member, HarryM. Onya Mick!
And onya Harry! But the entertainment won't be stopping there. Ted 'Ace' Bullpit will as ever be stepping back up to lead all in attendance through a rousing rendition of his favourite song, and now a staple of the Eleni Glouftsis Tee (OAM) Fan Club meetings, 'Lily of Luguna'... burrump, burrump. Come on. You can't say you don't know the words.
Onya 'Ace'!
And if everyone gets lucky, Ted 'Ace' Bullpit will then once again perform a few more of his personal favourites.
Onya 'Ace'!
There will also be the traditional special Saints' player meet n' greet. Saynt Nosher has organised for his favourite young guns Ryan Bybes (with a f*****g 's', ffs, Hunter Clark(no f*****g 'e', ffs), and, of course, Bram Stoker to be present.
Onya Nosh!
Afterwards, it's game time for Eleni Andriana Glouftsis Tee (OAM) Fan Club members. And everyone will as ever score copious amounts HarryM's famous gourmet quiche... delivered on a platter. (Still vegetarian though. St Nosher has refused to allow any more chickens to lose their heads.)
Onya Harry!
Onya Nosh! http://saintsational.net/viewtopic.php? ... 0#p1896031
And for those who were wanting a little insight into culinary mastermind of HarryM
And the culminary masterminds don't stop there. Big.Marmot, everybody's favourite furry retired suburban sporting legend,and now internets forum shock jock, shares his post match dietary secret. Onya Big.Marmot!
Maestro. This one is for Eleni Andriana Glouftsis Tee (OAM), and any lover of superb film making.
Saintsationalists were recently treated to a recipe sharing extravaganza courtesy of saynt Nosher and St Jofflebuoy. Nosher was so inspired by that, that last meeting he has deemed to cook up a little storm for the Eleni Glouftsis (OAM) Fan Club members. That went down so well, Nosh will be hitting the kitchen again.
Whoops. What happened there??? At least that chook kept its head though.
But don't think that the pre-game entertainment doesn't stop there. Oh no. No way. For all you Eleni Andriana Glouftsis Tee (OAM) Fan Club members who love things nautical, it's a special treat.
How to Sail 101 - with Capt CQ Saint of the Seven Seas and Six Chooks.
Starboard tack boat has the right of way.....? Stuff that.
Onya Capt CQ Saint!
Then, club members will all retire to the bar to cheer-on our golden girl.
However, once again, a word of warning. If anyone notices that now famous 'slightly metallic taste' in their drink, then best not to consume it. Instead, do your bit for Eleni Glouftsis Tee (OAM) Fan Club Vice-President comrade Rosputin's leadership ambitions... slip some into Nosher's raspberry cordial.
And lets not forget. When we win, Vortemort will be putting up a $10K sample size to shout the bar. Onya Vort!
Oh, and don't forget the now traditional fundraiser for the Northwest Imperative.
Buy some raffle tickets. Only $20 each, or four for $100.
See Eleni Glouftsis Tee (OAM) Fan Club Vice-President comrade Rosputin for these.
First prize is a new car! Wow! (Picture is for illustrative purposes only. Don't worry, comrade, the actual car will be white.)
Second prize is yet a personal, one-on-one, one hour curling masterclass coaching session with HarryM.
Third prize is a personal one-on-one, two hour curling masterclass coaching session with HarryM.
Onya Harry!
Time:
Before the match.
Venue:
The Prigozhin Room.
Unfortunately our usual venue, the Saxon Room, was already booked for a No Notion Party function.
So it's an extra special thanks to Eleni Glouftsis Tee (OAM) Fan Club Vice-President comrade Rosputin. He arranged with his fellow comrade and world famous childrens' party clown, Al Lukashenko, to make the Prigozhin Room available at last minute notice. Saintsational's favourite Russian operate will once again drive down early from the Canberra embassy to personally finalise this booking. Onya comrade Rosputin!
PS: Eleni Glouftsis Tee (OAM) Fan Club members will once again be wearing the (now also) traditional Twurly(no f*****g 'e', ffs) black arm bands in honour of one of Eleni Glouftsis Tee (OAM)'s greatest fans, and now, also the newly appointed official AFL-endorsed 'Cultural Attache to Umpiring'. Onya Twurly (no f*****g 'e', ffs)!
He's still here Nosh.
Lizard Boy!
