Mega ,
Your supposed to be nice at Christmas. North Port is looking at more banter next year & I think we can help him out there.
Best wishes to all posters & a huge thanks to David for his ongoing dedication this site.
Cheers to all.
We might be from the bush. but we ain't green
Happy holidays everyone and have a safe and wonderful New Year.
Feel I should give credit to my dad for happening upon this as a Christmas present:
Thanks everyone for the well wishes!
That book is a good find UptheDolohins. I've got that amongst the collection as well.
* It's time to restore the VFA name.
It's on my bookshelf, along with many other books about the VFA
It's a fascinating read so far. Includes a timeline of the VFA/VFL up to the early 2000s, plus a section covering every club that had ever played in the VFA up to that time.
I was also fortunate to get a copy of AFL 23 as well, which I'm quite enjoy. Glad to see the three big state leagues are properly represented this time around. Played my first season game earlier today and it ended up being a thriller.
Wally, I reckon I need to come for a cuppa and check out this bookshelf of yours mate :)
Happy new year everyone, hope 2024 is a ripper for you all!
welcome anytime aj - i'm an avid collector of footy and cricket books and photos, including a book and photo signed by Keith Miller and photos signed by Booby Skilton, Richard Osbourne, Micky Conlan and the great Barry Round of course - i also have a collection of VFA Recorders going back to 1923
Wally, would absolutely love to come have a look mate. I'm not really a collector, but I love to look at what other people have accumulated. The collection of records would have some great reading in it too I imagine.
The VFA Recorders are a great read and those of the 1930's and 1940's were better and had more photos than those in the 1950's - 1980's. I have a complete set for 1939 and and only missing two from 1945, both premiership years for the Seagulls
Finally agree on something you said and can't believe that I am agreeing with you but yes we can help Northport out with more banter in 24.
Additionally I trust you'll be around the page to keep me honest 😀
