TOPIC: No 1 Ticket Holder

docked No 1 Ticket Holder Posted: 1 year, 2 months ago #384433

VC winner Ben Roberts-Smith has been named the new No 1 Ticket Holder for Freo.

"I'm obviously very lucky and I feel very privileged to be asked to do that for the club," said Cpl Roberts-Smith, a supporter since the club began in 1995.

"To be asked by any institution, particularly one that you're already close to, to be a No1 ticket holder is a big deal, so I take it pretty seriously. I'll get out there and support the club in every manner - not just on the field but with their off-field endeavours as well."

'Ben Roberts-Smith is a lethal warrior, an elite, super fit and highly skilled killing machine.' ...Courier Mail. I could add 'in a war that never should have been.'

As long as they don't ask him to write a new club song ...

Someone send George Negus and Yumi Stynes membership applications. It's the least they can do.

VAST improvement on the previous holders of our number one ticket.

Strongly approve of this move. About the first good thing the Steve's have done in a few years.

Can I be the first to propose some sort of No1 ticket holder UFC cage match between all the clubs?

Maybe winner gets a couple of first round draft picks ...

Come on, it'd liven up the pre-season a bit.

Ricky, you're probably closer to the truth than you know. We talk of courage and sacrifice on the footy field.

Roberts-Smith makes that stuff on the footy field look like child's play.

Would be a top motivational speaker for the Len Hall game.

I'm with Shane - suit him up and plunk him in the goal square. This guy, despite his pleasant manners and articulate speech, is someone that knows what to do when the pill gets delivered into the guts. Off the field he is the calm voice of reason - on the paddock of battle the guy would be devastating.

He will be a tough act to follow next year - but I reckon the club needs to give Stën Görmeister the #1 Ticket Holder badge.

that guy on the front of the west today looks like he's been training with Big Ben - certainly has the artillery to be a straight-shooter or guard the goal square. nifty strip too. don't know how he'd go at the tribunal though.

Reckon he knows a thing or two about unarmed contact, pressure points and the like. Could this be a precursor for bringing Fevolenko out of obscurity?
