AHH THE GOOD OLD DAYS

Well here we are its grand final day and it marks the end of another season and I thought I would just reflect o n seasons gone by 

I miss the old times of when you would have the old backyard Barbie with the family and selected mates and get half cut before the 3 o'clock kickoff 

When beer was full flavoured and full of hops .not the chemical made crap of today .AHH give me the old KB or DA any day 

When all this climate change talk was not an issue and people did not push their beliefs down  each other's throats one way or the other

When the warm and fuzzy brigade did not get their knickers in a Knott when some of us have said we dont go for female commentators or female Refs and touch judges .AHH bring Back Frank Hyde Rexy Ferris Ashton Alan Clackson .Hollywood Hartley .that tall cheating bastard from up north that used to referee the state of origin the grasshopper Gomersal .Ahh  the good old day's. But in saying all that I'll still watch the game tonight .just hope that its a good game .WHO to win dont really care as i dont go much on either team .just good luck to both teams and may the best team wins on its own merits and with out to much controversy and finally i just wish everbody and their family's a safe and happy grand final Day .but i still miss the good old days

  • Was at the bat and ball pub after 1969 GF Balmain defeating south,with the boys from the Bush ,a massive brawl broke out when one of our group grabbed a Souths flag from a vw that was at the lights,it it was on ,the man at his hot dog stand took off at the speed of a winger ,I think he might be still running .

  • Purse your lips and exhale. Well my old man f...cked that up in the birds and bees talk.

  • All of the above and I also miss people not being able to have a smoke without the authorities saying you can’t smoke in public places etc ( I have never smoked but I detest the government interference) 

    Or ride a bloody pushie without having to wear a bloody helmet! 

    Or being forced to have low alcohol beer at the footy

    or having to accept a certain doctrine be it climate change or women’s rights or gay rights and having it shoved down your throat and if you don’t accept it you are an outcast. 

  • I miss no internet so I didn't have to listen to you old bastards whinge about how good the old days where:)

    I miss 3.00pm kick offs. You'd be so psyched as a kid emulating the plays from the GF, running around till dark and the dry day weather made for better footy.

    • At least we have gotten to be old bastards

  • Born during the 2 nd world Hector were you ,I was.

"The Pezet experiment has been a massive failure as predicted.
Next week should be twiddle at fullback and Papali'i at 6.
Unfortunately, our shit coach will keep Papali'i at FB and play Walker at 5/8."

Twidle at 1 and Joash at 6. Done."

"You know what. Ref was biased for sure, but the Eels let in points after stupid mistakes, and missed 3 kicks at goal.
1. Simonsson dropped ball on early tackle near our line - Tigers Try

"The ref was bad, but we absolutely 1000% lost that game ourselves. We gave up pressure over and over again with stupid plays - Pezet is such a liability, he's not ready for first grade in a team like ours. Kelly...well we knew what we were getting…"

"Yep Twidle stays, develop further. Whether at Fullback or on the Wing.
If he can work on his defence he could be a Centre option next year or even a 6. But defence is the big thing."

"I hope the court case against Lomax and the NRL was worth it Parra as we are now paying the price.
On top of that, Ryles is just about the worst coach in the NRL.
He makes Kearney look like a hall of famer."
