Fun fact:

The last time Carlton won a Premiership, this is what the state of the art in mobile phones looked like:

Just noticed the baggers took o’farrell (KPD) at 40 last year.

Next pick swans took:
Bice

STRENGTHS:

• Dare
• Kicking
• Outside run
• Versatility

Time well tell. But those are traits they desperately need and he’s already playing well for the swans

In 1995, the fax machine was king and sending letters via AUSDOC made for speedy next day delivery!

Had his first episode with Monica Lewinsky. Bet she thinks that was a long time ago.

This is my phone from 96. My best mate and I were the only two kids in the entire school to have mobile phones in 1996

My first phone was around then. Mitsubishi flip.
Cost me bigtime.
Most were carrying around bricks

I don't reckon i got one until 98. I fiinished year 12 in 97. This was horrific timing for a young bloke trying to pickup chicks that had to rely on charm and limited knowledge of the fairer sex all through high school. Stupid Nokia not being more advanced

 

[Tadpole]

I think this was my first. It’s giving me the Blues just looking at it.

I had a business before I bought the phone.
Hundreds of customers and I had to stop every 15 minutes or so when my beeper went off.
Hahaha remember that crap.
Than find a phone booth to call my customer.
So easy nowadays

The legend that was the 5110

-Charge it Sunday night and don't worry about it again until the following Sunday
-Impress girls with your "Snake" high score
-Strengthen your thumb taking 9273 presses on the keypad to write a 7 word message
-Drop it and the only damage done was to the concrete or pavers that it broke rather than the phone itself
-Find out footy scores on the go with "Pocket News". Edit the score and send it to your mates to be a campaigner

Ah the memories.

Carlton could only dream of being thought of in such fond terms.

I almost bought Google glasses before coming to my senses.

Bice doesn't have enough scope for improvement in his dare, kicking and outside run - better with blokes like Lachie Fogarty who has an enormous area for improvement in that regard.

Show some respect. That was the phone that Gordon Gecko used to ring Bud Fox whilst he was walking on a beach in the Hamptons.

Can’t go past the Nokia 3210.
I was a legend at snake.

I was at the kids swimming lessons the other Saturday checking the NBA scores and looking who was playing that day in the footy. Like a real w***er trying to look clever

 

[Matrix10]

He would have been something in black & white stripes.

Funny you mention that … both Kouta and Ang were wearing their Collingwood jumpers under their Carlton jumpers watching the reserves before they had to play the Pies in the seniors , their first season. Hearts were torn .

You had charm on your side? That wouldn’t have worked for me.

You're quite advanced for such a young pr$ck
