Fave footy moment-without doubt the 1992 SANFL Grand Final. Had to watch it from home as I was in labour with my first son. Wouldn't go to hospital until the game finished. (my parents went nuts lol!) Spent all day laughing and cheering while hubby timed my contractions. My surname is "Buckley" and Nathan got BOG, but I didn't call my son Nathan. No chance in hell! It's all true, honest. I am somewhat a footy fanatic!
Most admired SANFL players- started with Bucky Cunningham and Andy Porplycia but nowadays Jeremy Clayton, Tony Brown, Poults-anyone with G&D.
Favourite sportspeople- Jane Saville, Stuart O'Grady and heaps of others.

I know it sounds wrong doesn't it? I'd imagine the reason he is "Magpie in the 80's" is because the Hahndorf Footy Club are the magpies.

Memorable sporting moment[1]

At least it was a 'chanceless' innings until you got out !!!!!!!!

[Maddogmike]

Not a good way to finish your lifelong dream. After getting out for a golden quacker in my 1st knock on AO, I thought well at least I can say Ive walked out into the middle and taken guard haha. Then get a 2nd opportunity and just as bad!!!

At least its not a big square boundary and the walk back isnt as long! haha

Bradman made a'quack' in his last dig
You were merely emulating the great man!

SANFL; Sturt
AFL; St.Kilda
Other clubs, West Perth, Port Melbourne, Detroit Red Wings, Oakland Raiders,

Favorite SANFL moment; Watching the last half of the 1976 SANFL GF, which was telecast
live into Melbourne,and becoming an instant Sturt fan, not just because of the win (it helped though!),
but because of the Double Blues uniform.

Favorite VFL/AFL moment; St.Kilda belting (literally & figurativley) the crap out of
Carlton Round 22 1978. Cost Carlton the double chance and possibly a flag.
Sidebottom,Ditterich and Muir going ape doo doo on those Carlton wusses.
