Re: I spent countless hours playing it I used to have loads of the teams. Painted a lot of them myself. Apparently it is still available. Used to have the cricket and rugby versions too, but they were awful. What's a girl? (I lead a sad life)
I had the rugby, too, but never really liked it I spent hours in John Britten's, looking at the various football teams, before making any decision. Then I spent many years looking at various girls, but never had the nerve to do anything else!
We still play red arse if the team were supposed to be playing in our monday night league, doesn't turn up.
Unexpectedly, it turns out that the lads who grew up here in Adelaide also played that coin football. Same rules and everything. It's a small world. I think Blocky 123 was called Water 123 in Worsbrough. It sounds the same game.
