Clubbing was a wank and a chest beating scene by the toughies of the time. Like RIMB that came later in our lives - live band scene despite being loud was far better run and joy, if only we knew to appreciate it better at the time didn’t know how good we had it !

Yep very well said ! Street smart :)

Just that you quoted it’s the APL interest in inviting some of the clubs. Just don’t give them any ideas I’m sure they read the mighty GG haha

By the way There was no night clubbing back in the day. That was a new phenomenon to us ol blokes as D using that expression. Pubs pubs and pubs but with Live bands every weekend wherever you went. The icon Aussie bands of the 70/80’s epic nights ! Rocking times !

I gather you didn’t score at clubbing MCG. Why would you waste summer days sleeping in - oh that’s right Melbourne haha

Why I pulled Graz up earlier. He’s dreaming

My first wage having dropped out end of 4th form you know now called Year 10 was working for Clark Rubber $78 a/w. I started work the week after school finished for the old man said if I’m leaving better have job or all hell will break loose haha Partied like hell schooners were what ? 40odd...

Ah back on topic considering properties my ethnic ol man bought a 1/4 acre battle axe driveway block on the north shore back in the early 60’s for $3k haha bloody Anglo territory whilst rest of the fam settled in Strathfield and Blakehurst.

Yep I won’t repeat the gist he quoted to not give it any space deserved to be deleted.

Quite premature all this talk at this stage. Start is June 26.

Mate the shire and Coogee sure isn’t cheap as well. Both coast lines have their exy and affordable sides.

Typical Greek high kick going into a tackle

Ah I now recall That Kasich troll posts x 2

Cheeez Graz forget any local clubs going into APL. It’s just not good business full stop long term. It’s not the way we hope for football in the future have a pyramid get your head around this. Any local club involvement with them ahead just adds more complexity and it’s bad enough as it is.

Ah the post nazi again not that I noticed

Opposite end of the metro - Mona Vale to Palm regularly. To this day my go to's - went living in Narrabeen then to Queenscliff pre marriage times. Go to Manly for brekkys/lunch/walks as well with the Boss and Long Reef has a brilliant golf course to play.

high tech like that. Not sure how we progressed to that for obviosuly the blueprint was as you had, fine tuning I guess. I luved anything with wheels, bush track push bike racing was popular our parts, we'd have 20 odd riders in races and some crash's were huge. Gratifying to win enjoyed it...

yep blue tongue lizards used to catch as well.

mentioning british bulldog, playing forcings back - only time I learnt using to kick a eggball. Used luv getting that spiralling ball fly making up lots of ground. Good ol pushy's, too right rode everywhere miles away without a worry. Imagine Mums today how they react where's Johnny gone for...
