and if you read the paper, anyone over 60 is elderly, but I disagree, I think anyone over 80 is elderly.
I sure don't feel elderly.

I'm an oldie of 57. I have to take care of the memories. So many years, too many games.
I was pushed into playing under 12s, now they'll have to carry me out.

Bonz you are really old.
Joe M me thinks you may be fibbing if you say you played at Bowden. I seem to recall that Bowden was pulled down about 30 years ago (although it may not have been quite that long ago).

Sorry. Just for a second there, I thought moose was Barry Sp.. The memories are fading away.

I'm 31 and started my junior career playing at Bowden, but I reckon I only played there for about 2 seasons before it was pulled down.

40......First saw NBL watching the 83 Finals Series played at Kilsyth stadium (my mum was administrator of the place).
Sat front row and watched Voldemort's Canberra Cannons beat Leroy's West Adelaide Bearcats in the GF. It was a 2 point thriller and I was hooked.



43.
Not sure if I'm older or younger than Koberulz, D2.0, Perthworld, Jack Toft etc.

While only yesterday I read botinagy.com about the sixties and it bought back memories. Then, I remembered that this was here.
The year was 1962 and I was 11 years and started playing under 12s 'biddy ball' and followed those guys that boti talked about.
Later, I played with and against my heroes and I was frightened of them.
I ended up playing 2 or 3 games a week, summer and winter for 20 odd years,
a few thousand games.



Perthworld and Koberules make ddfan look normal.
