Totally by accident, I was on the lead story about the Semaphore shooting a couple of weeks ago on 2 TV channels.

That was at the end of a looong day... and still had about five hours drinking to go.

The cameraman kicked me out of most of the early shots in the morning coz I was hungover as a b@st@rd from the night before...

- 1990 grand final, had 1 of those hats where you pull the cord and the hands clap. Ch 9 camera man came up before the game and 'clap'. Then watching the news that night there was my smiling face for the world to see :)

- 1997 on the bus over to Melbourne for ports 1st game against collingwood. Got the usual questions about going over for history etc .. also ch 9 news.

- royal show late 90s when the big top hats in footy colours where popular... made the footage after the news of people walking around the show with my hat on.

Adam Hills appeared on Rove in 2004 and showed a photo I had sent Adam of me, a mate and two sherpas wearing his red charity t-shirts in the Himalayas with Mt Everest in the background. He also mentioned my name and even said my surname correctly. I missed the show and was alerted to it by a friend a week or so later. I contacted Rove and they sent me a copy of that segment.

When I was about 8 I appeared on one of the games of the old Channel Niners show with Robin Roenfeldt and Winky Dink. The game where you wiggled a round board to try to get 3 balls to sit into the 3 holes.

Was interviewed on Gouger Street for Greek TV (on C31 at the time). Asked me a few questions about the Athens Games that were on at the time. Instant stardom….

Only time I’ve been on radio was ringing up a Saturday morning basketball show in the mid 90s (maybe on rph?) for their quiz. Managed to win it and snare a year’s subscription to the now defunct One on One Magazine. As a 12 year old I was pumped about it.

Not on camera as such but I rung up the TV show White Line Fever (SA version) back in the days of the Fox Footy Channel and asked then SA coach Alastair Clarkson a question on air. My father was on the news once describing a noise he heard of a murder or bashing in his street or something.

I've still got every issue of One on One ever made (1992-2000) out in the shed and many moons ago managed to get Shane Heal to sign the cover of the issue he was on playing for Minnesota in the NBA and also got Luc Longley to sign one of his rookie cards.

Been on TV a few times just by being in the wrong place at the right time.

Got filmed by the 7.30 report playing Mortal Kombat in Timezone Hindley st back in about 1993. Did Sub Zero's spinal rip fatality on camera and caused all hell to break loose. The game almost got banned because of me. Management were not happy.

Caught on camera by 9 news in a crowd shot of people camping out on North terrace for Grand Final tickets in 1998. Part of a group sitting watching the Brownlow count on a battery operated TV.

Filmed playing pinball by 7 news at an arcade game auction last year.

Caught on camera by a local news crew at a classic arcade game tournament in New Hampshire USA in June 2010. I was playing Karate Champ wearing a Clipsal 500 shirt.

I'm playing Rush and Attack right at the start of this clip.

I was an extra on the film Blue Fin, as I lived in Streaky Bay when they were filming it.
Mum, Dad, and my little sister also got a gig as extras too.

I've re-watched it a couple of times over the past few years, as Mum and Dad have now passed away. It brings back good memories of that period in time.

I was also on Channel Niners, I did the buzzer thing where you had to move the loop along the wire. Smashed it, won some shitty prize that I threw out and I think the school got something worthwhile. Felt ripped off.

Having met MP once or twice before through mutual mates, I'm pretty certain he is not the one with the red scarfe, but I could see in one of the scenes it looked like he had had enough !!!

1. - Dancing on the channel 9 kids show "Cmon Kids" with the Aussie group the Cockroaches.....very nice guys and I should have been more friendly as they became the richest entertainers in Australia...."The Wiggles!!!!!"....I was dancing on the blocks near the drummer to the song "She's the One". I have it on VHS....cringe when I ever see it!!!!

2. - South Adelaide Football Club cheer squad in about 1988/89 at Glenelg Oval.....the cameras interviewed me (channel 9) as a 14 year old about the end and finish of South Adelaide. We were broke....I was very passionate on camera as I am still now....I have not changed ;)
I think this was the day Ross Gibbs pulled his pants down to "flash" us a brown eye......pure class!!! :lol:

:D
Is out of change.....thanks Cambridge Clarrie!!!

You're a star on the 83 premiership video, blacky.

I'm very close collateral damage while Dean Schumann was giving Steven Sims a well-deserved shiner in the 91 video :(
