WWT Supporter Ernie on Almost Football Legends

[heater31]

Yeah saw it on the footy show and thought classic Ernie.

What was dodgy though was the one that sent it in is from VIC! WTF?

Could have been a Vic AFL recruiter who left the tape lying around and his missus nicked it and sent it in.....

Good stuff

[dedja]

LOL, don't mess with Ernie! ... legend

[Columbo]

Why would WWT be playing Port at Noarlunga? Final?

Spot on...It was the Ressies Qualifying final last year.

Isn't there a Farrugia involved with Melbourne? Recruiting or some such?

IIf anyone had footage of Brian from Norwood back in the 70's it would be even funnier

Was it Brian who got on a bike and chased a previously underperforming Norwood team around the oval with a bullwhip?

If so I wished he'd been around when Hill was coaching.

One of my workmates at work is an old Norwood fan from years back. Anyway, his missus used to take photos at the footy and he told me he has photos of Brian as well as plenty of classic SANFL players from the 1960s-1990s (stacks of Norwood too). So stay tuned...

He's one of those SANFL supporters who stopped going during the 1990s...i've been trying to get him back out to a Norwood match (or any SANFL match) but he's not a big fan of SANFL or AFL anymore (for reasons relating to PAFC)...

Has anyone watched that in super slow mo?
Me and my kids are freaking out, he appears out of an invisible portal!

Yeah, when I first saw it on the night, I just thought there was a jump or skip in the recording, but I do remember thinking for all of 2 seconds at the time that it looked weird how he (Ernie) first apperared on screen.

[Dogwatcher]

A break in the time space continuum?

Classic Ernie winning the Grand Final edition. Not sure about the description of the competing teams however

[Dutchy]

Would have been nice if they pointed out that the footage wasnt a SANFL league game!

I'll say

[footy fad]

Would have been better if a bit of history about Ernie was told, he was already a legend even before last night

[Reddeer]

On the Grand Final of the football show last night the video showing our Ernie at Noarlunga against Port Adelaide (it must have been the reserves qualifying final last year that we lost by 4 points) won the Almost Football Legends award for the senders of the video. Only a $65000 4 wheel drive vehicle.
I hope the winners search out Ernie and give him a gift of some sort.
Anyway were is Ernie these days I haven't seen him at the football for some time. He was always there.

Ernie has been out of action for a little while with some medical issues but is doing OK.
