"99 Luff Balloons"

Laurie Nash (Sy) ?

Yeah sorry Growl, it's my standard two-character stats abbreviation for Sydney/South Melbourne. Whilst it runs somewhat against the grain for me to use Sy for South Melbourne players, I did it suspecting that younger people might be thrown a bit by SM.

Great Man Laurie Nash, when I was young (I didnt know who he was) I went to a sportsman night for local cricket team and there was him, Whale Roberts and Alan Miller.
Dont remember much about the night but know Dad said he was a brilliant speaker. His great line is "The greatest footballer I ever saw, was the one I looked at every one morning when I shaved"

Without researching he played 1 test for 5or 6 wickets !!! and once kicked 16 goals in an interstae match for Tassie.

Was lucky enough to get his autograph.
 
I think Ray Hall will be known as a LUFF BALLOON still B1..
Chances of him returning are getting thin (like your hair B1).

No HALL NO RICHMOND..

Looking more likely every week B2 for your Ray "Luft Balloons" Hall theory to come true.

Nena

Bass player
Reminds me of the 'Cockney Nutjob' from The Mighty Boosh

Keyboard player
Hits the c# d# keys with clenched fist in intro - i don't hear such a chord occurring at this time - Must not be playing live!!

Ray Hall
Will play 100th game against Essendon - will play similar chord on Matthew Lloyd

As a bit of a Ray Hall fan (Underrated player which is normally a pest to opposition teams).
My son and l made a small 100 game banner which was to be used late last year.
I am a bit concerned that he will never reach the milestone of 100 and may be remembered as a[size=10pt][size=10pt][size=10pt][size=10pt]"99 Luff Balloons"[/size][/size][/size][/size]

Have there ever been any other Richmond player stuck on 99 or any other unfair millstone?
PS B1 keep away from this topic of Ray Hall.

B2 you are a star with your predictions - May 22 you called for Ray "Luft Balloons" Hall.

The Banana's have worked it all out.
Since the untimely exit of Ray "99 Luft Balloons" Hall the Tigers have won only 12 of 29 contests.
No Razor, no Richmond.
I think there's something in that for everyone.

B1 sometimes things must be kept to ourselves. You are lucky nobody reads your posts..

Thanks B2
 
I saw Gumpus Hall walking out of the G on the weekend. Had a spring in his step.

Wouldn’t mind betting the club’s approached him to come back and help us out.......

Where's Nena..........
