Do they still stop the old scoreboard clock with 5 mins to go?
The suspense used to kill me as a young fella waiting for the siren. Miss that feeling.

Kids and R2 wouldnt remember them days.
I remember using a watch but u never knew how many injury time minutes which were also added to it in that last 5. Back then it was also an anologue style, but to answer your question the newer digital one counts all the way down.

Oh us poor fairweather supporters.

Cheers. It's something that I used to love.
The clock stopping was great but I think we used it to our advantage at times.
Leading by a couple and the siren would go early. It was our home ground rort.

I still have some black and white cardboard corner posts from the 80's when running on the field to pat the boys on the back the norm.

Game has changed for fans. It was more accessible before.

Don't our's go back to Tigers Flemington ?
They look disappointed after each and every loss.
So disappointed that they are chatting with the opposition about what time they'll be steaming in for s**ts at sapphire

Good old days at legends nightclub was the place to meet the players.
Plenty of horny skirt trying to nab players.

And some of said skirt was nabbed by mediocre first graders behind the curtains. Fresh from drubbings by the likes of the seagulls, cronulla or the dogs many an ordinary player nailed a bint like they nailed no game.
