Usain Bolt!

One of the CCM select boys Matt Page on the back of the Tele with some Jamaican dude wearing a Mariners kit...

our paper - when we actually get one - usually goes straight into the recycling bin

Ditto. Murdoch rag

Mrs. Greenlig tells me a bunch of people at the game dev studio she works at have been talking about Bolt and the Mariners. Nerds in Melbourne, talking about the Mariners. We have truly gone beyond the veil.

I live in Melbourne - Sunday morning popped the dogs in the car to take them out for a run and there's @Shaun Mielekamp on ABC Grandstand talking to Tracey Holmes.

On radio. In Melbourne. A week before the AFL Finals.

The exposure on this is incredible

I honestly can’t remeber this much chat about a match from the general public since the grand final.

But what about for a local paper

I get two as well. I enjoy reading one. Went for a while without one now get two. Idiots

The bolt vs local clubs could be the key that is engaging all the locals. There mates wanting to watch them play bolt

Not just play Bolt.... kick him, put a move on him and perhaps make him look abit silly.

Imagine the viral video of one these boys nutmegging Bolt or crunching him. Plenty of them are more than capable of both.

The local boys have everything to play for normally in this game but it's gone up a notch this year. Good luck to them all. I hope they can make a good impression

 

[TedShot]

Am hoping there is a backroom discussion for the local guys to play high and make it a bit easier for a bolt breakaway. Having him score will mean amazing exposure for everyone involved.

Great game for all the local clubs represented as well!

Ususain bolt will be whereing the no 95 kit

 

[Michael]

I’ve been one of the bigger haters of this Bolt experiment...
But I must admit I am genuinely excited for tonight.... the exposure for the club and the exposure for the local boys I’ve played with against for many years is bringing a smile to my face thinking about it.

But i still don’t think bolt will work out and hope it doesn’t haha

Wear is Ususain playing on the pitch?

 

[marinermick]

Wear is Ususain playing on the pitch?

In his Mariners’s kit I am guessing. Probably Puma boots.

Rain. Only CCM can organise a good event and get rain

All good. Its clearing.

 

[Josho Howe]

It's raining
It's pouring
Usain Bolt is scoring

 

[Forum Phoenix]

Bahaha! That would be an amazing chant!

It's graet to have buzz and enthusiasm around a game. And agree great for the players to feel like people care. And they do.

Bolt is genuine. I like him. We all know the odds are well and truly against him being able to cut the mustard, but he's already been great value in all regards form what I've heard. Personally I'd love to watch the world implode if he came good. We'd be in the front row to watch one hell of a ride and a nice little slice of history unfold.

 

[Big Al]

So apparently going to have fireworks and other things to keep the crowd entertained till bolt gets on. Per fox sports

Obviously the last 15 to 20 mins. Can’t have him start and everyone going home after 20 mins plus the amateurs might be tired by the time he comes on

 

[true believer]

Come on you Rrrr's
D"oh , ok there only one usain bolt
There's only one usain bolt

Drinking already TB?
