Rodan on TV

Just noticed in the telly guide that David Rodan is a guest on The Fat tonight. I'm in Sydney, but as far as I know it's a nationwide programme.

Cheers.

Time for the admins to see if an SMF exploit has been discovered and a corresponding patch to install.

There was an issue back in 2003 or so when the original post and edit happened. It was something to do with transferring the data base to a new forum from memory. It's nothing that needs looking into now.

Why Tigerman91 decided to bring the thread up with a "who cares" comment over 6 years later is beyond me to understand.
 
The Fat was the best sports discussion show on TV until it went to 7. Even now I don't think its been bettered. I wish the ABC would take Tony Squires back. Its worth noting that Sam Kekovich's parody of Alan Jones was born on The Fat.
 
Dear Tigerman.

Thanks for bringing my 6 year old post back to life. But I have to agree with you, now that it's 2009, Rodan plays for another club, and The Fat no longer exists - who cares??

Why do you?

How did Rodan go on TV?

Very odd matchup really. Rodan ran off him at every opportunity. And when Tyrone found himself in marking contests, he had this little midget Rodan desperately clasping onto his leg in an attempt to spoil.

Think the points were with Rodan.
 
I've been smarting for 6 years that my post about David Rodan appearing on the Fat didn't get a single reply, so in fact I would now like to express my deep gratitude to Tigerman for belatedly stimulating discussion about it.

There is a lesson in this for all us in the wonderful PRE community - if you start a new topic and it is greeted with stone cold silence, never fear, it can take the best part of a decade before someone out there recognises your hard work and gives you public acknowledgment. Even a dismissive "So, who cares?" can make all the difference! :'(

TB, did you start up a new PRE user called 'Tigerman' for the sole purpose of posting a reply to your thread?? :hihi

haha I must have pressed to go back to a page by accident. Thought it was a strange post.

And here we were thinking it was Richmond's performance that had made you grumpy over the last 6 years.

Ha ha. I wish I had thought of that! 6 long years I've stewed on that unanswered post. But now it is gloriously sailing into its second page. I claim a PRE record on this one - longest time between posting a topic and getting a reply. Surely no-one will beat my record!

By why stop here - maybe "Rodan on TV" will go on to challenge the great Krakouer and Tambling threads for number of pages.

As they say at Richmond FC - sometimes you've to be in the system for 6 years before you see any development!
