Game Day Thread; Swans v Crows

[Primmy]

I wonder how many different ways we can spell Derrickx, Derycks, Derricks, etc...... I think I will just call him The Big D.

Salute Al. King of the @@@@ stirrers, aided and abetted by his underlings.....

....

I think Matt D has already claimed that one.

[magic.merkin]

Rubbish. All three players who had never won for the swans were in the middle. Buddy Derickx and laidler. That's normal

joke = missed

Whenever I see anything written about the Big D, it always makes me think of the boxer Dedrick Tatum from the Simpsons!

Big D ?! He's not a brand of peanuts , y'know , Primmy !

It's gotta be something stereotypically Aussie (even though the name is Dutch): Number 19 , I dub thee DEZZA !

More proof of the Buddy hate was seen on Saturday. When Buddy kicked a goal, McVeigh rushed at him. Buddy put up his hands in defence but McVeigh still struck him hard on the hands. They called it a high five but we all know what it really was...

Don't forget the incident with ROK. ROK had the ball on the 50, and when he centered it to buddy, he deliberately kicked it so
buddy had to extend his arms when marking, instead of hitting him on the chest. Clearly something between those two.

Yes yes very clearly they hate him.

It might cause some confusion, I understand Horse also goes by that name.

[aardvark]

It was a disgraceful display - they purposefully got it all in his hair and in his beard.

I know i'm being picky but didn't he shave it off before the game? If shaving it off prompted a return to form maybe Mal and Shaw should follow suit.

[RogueSwan]

After the game, I think it was after the game, Buddy said he trimmed the beard after Shaw and Eski had already done it. I think it was when he was talking with Mooney???

I heard a rumor that at Melbourne, so few of their guys have actually played in a winning side in recent memory, that Roosey is having their lap pool filled with Gatorade & they're just all gunna jump in at the same time ... it was easier than the couple of guys who have actually played in a winning side trying to splash the 20 others with just two bottles between them

Let's never forget the state of the Swans of on-field performances in the early 90s. I believe the Swans last something like 24 home and away games in a row.

They were as poor as Melbourne are now. The Swans turned things around, and I hope Melbourne can do the same, with the help of elite football people like Paul Roos and Peter Jackson.

26 and they beat Melbourne to break it - was a good day for the 3000 or so of us at the SCG that day.....

Not such a good night for all of us though. Celebrated long into the night at the nominated after-match venue at the time, Moore Park Bowling Club. Got out of a cab in the wee hours and my mate got the staggers up (as you do) and rammed head first into his brick front fence. We hopped back into the cab and was in StVincents emergency department until 6am.

Still had a smile on our faces however...lol
