There was a hint in the movie that he was a fairly decent aussie rules football player. Was this another fabrication, or is their some truth that Tom Hafey approached him in the late 70's to join the club as a category B rookie.

He was just a poor boy from a poor family

And neither Bismillah nor Mamma Mia would let him go let him go

You mean the old school Tom Hafey who thought that Mitchell White was soft because he had a girl's name?

Freddie was always a Pies fan.

Late in his career he would often hold parties in the locker room and snort dandruff from the wee Blair's head.

I agree. In fact, i would remove the word "cakewalk" from our theme song and just play that!!!

Although i would consider playing the version from the movie Bohemian Rhapsody (which was a perfect rendition of that performance!).

Look at that, we are solving all of the problems of the world in one thread.

Maybe we could play a game in Barcelona—-the old Plaza De Toros doesn’t have bull fights any more

Open with the brilliant video Barcelona—sadly Cabelle passed away

If we were going to play a song pre game to get the crowd up, like Port does with Never Tear Us Apart, I'd take that ever day over Metallica's Nothing else Matters.
