    somebody once said, die happy, fat and your way at 65, or live til 80 eating quinoa and tofu and telling yourself you are living.
    Beautiful.......thank christ we still have footy

            somebody from around the show must be a roosters fan because there has already been a scene where a women is wearing a roosters top in a bar scene.

            good show too.
            Looking forward to the next show ' the boys from Binjiwunyawunya ' Sunday night . Classic

              On a related topic, Jimmy Barnes wears a faded light blue Easts jersey in the Cheap Wine video. Which looks like it’s shot in an Coogee flat in the early 80s

                  I think Barnesy is a Tigers supporter, but I remember some members of Sherbet occasionally wearing Rooster jersies in the 70's

                    Reckon the late author Robert G. Barrett had a soft spot for the Roosters.

                      Might be wrong, but I don't think it's an Easts jersey. There's no badge. Know we wore the light blue during the war, but have never seen the chevrons like that.

                      But yeah, I remember seeing Daryl Braithwaite in a Roosters jersey. There's also a photo of him, Schuey and Fairfax and, with their long blonde hair, none of them would have been admitted to Easts Leagues (but you could have imagined them singing on Countdown).

                        And when the cops pulled you over for a breath test, and u had 6 or 7 mates, all totally blind, lying all over each other, the cops would congratulate you for being the designated driver.

                          wonder how many would give up the post 2000 lifestyle and head back to pre 2000 living? Probably only people born from 75 and earlier can genuinely have an unbiased opinion on this.

                              Barrett was a old Bondi head hence the Easts connection.

                                Mark Harris was barred from the club for long hair too.....but for some unimaginable reason was never invited to Countdown.
