BAD FOOTY CARDS  -  episode 13

DENIS SCANLON

Scanlon just doesn’t look the same without Trevor Barker standing on his head, taking that spekkie.

(As seen 6.30 every Saturday night on the intro for Seven’s Big League Footy Replay)

BAD FOOTY CARDS – episode 12

REG GLEESON

Reg Gleeson played 128 games for South Melbourne, kicking 11 goals. Gleeson however had a secret passion. He always had a fascination for the fascist regimes of the 1940’s and he used to attend footy training to practice his goose step marching, as is seen here captured in the 12th episode of ‘Bad Footy Cards’.

After retiring from Footy, Gleeson became a John Cleese impersonator.

CONGRATULATIONS AND THANK YOU

DGES FOOTYTALK – our premier website.

Bizarre really.

I was a bit puzzled to log on to DGES FOOTYTALK today, only to find that we had 48 hits to the site today alone. What could it be?..thought I. After all, I haven’t entered a ‘Bad Footy Card’ for a few days or any other intelligent post of such note for that matter.

I delved a little further and found that we had no less than 78 hits from people who had googled “Voldemort” in their search engine thing in the past 2 days and they hence ended up at DGES FOOTYTALK. (You may recall that DGES FOOTYTALK carried the scoop that Carlton star, Chris Judd was playing the part of Voldemort in the Harry Potter movies).

Coincidence?…you may ask… but it just so happens that the latest Harry Potter movie, “Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince” hit the screens this week and the world has been googling for more info on the hit Harry Potter movies. As luck would have it for those googlees, they have all now experienced the joys of the DGES WORLD FAMOUS FOOTY TIPPING COMP via DGES FOOTYTALK.

As they will all now know, The world is a far better place for experiencing the DGES WORLD FAMOUS FOOTY TIPPING COMP. (far more entertaining than Harry Potter)

P.S Congratulations and thank you to our loyal fans. Our website hit count has registered 7136 views in just over 12 months. Considering we are only active for 6 months of the year, our very own DGES WORLD FAMOUS FOOTY TIPPING COMP website is polling extremely well.

TIPSMASTER’s NOTE: For the benefit of our Poor ol’ Footscray supporters, this is the AFL Premiership Cup…

BAD FOOTY CARDS – episode 11

ELLIOT PERRY

Elliot Perry was always known as a sensible basketballer. So sensible in fact that he always abided by the Boy Scouts ‘Be Prepared’ rule.

You see, Elliot Perry was concerned that the basketball arena was going to become flooded, hence – he wore his sensible goggles…or maybe he was going snorkling after the game…or maybe he was a welder in the off season…or maybe he just needed coke bottle glasses…or maybe he was worried about getting swine flu in the eye…or maybe he was just a dick.

Elliot Perry is our undisputed winner of BAD FOOTY CARDS – episode 11

BAD FOOTY CARDS – episode 10

Clive Lloyd (aka Darth Vader) instructing the team.

BAD FOOTY CARDS – episode 9

Adam Gray (alias A Gray Superstar) – Bad Footy Card circa 2005 Strathmore Under 12

Gray is captured here, running away from the camera man. Rumour has it that Gray siezed the opportunity while all the other kids were distracted by the Footy Card Photographer Bloke. Gray grabbed the footy, ran the length of the field and booted the goal.

Bad Footy Cards – episode 8

Michael Turner

Witchypoo.

Both gave me childhood nightmares.

BAD FOOTY CARDS – episode 7

Ken Fletcher

Orange hair, orange mo, orange eyebrows & eyelashes, orange sideys, orange chin stubble, orange shorts, man camel toe  -  you’re kidding…

I challenge the authenticity of this bad footy card, simply because Fletcher’s jib hat is missing.

DGES WORLD FAMOUS FOOTY TIPPING COMP tipster, Jules from team DIDAK/SHAW’s USED CARS has been doing some research on AFL FOOTY CARDS.

Jules has sent us this link to an AFL FOOTY CARDS site which lists every AFL footy card known to mankind.

…and there are some gems, especially some of the old cigarette cards.

You must do yourself a favour and visit http://members.optusnet.com.au/~dgreen2/

Great research Jules!
