Thank you for posting this. Would live to see the 67 Detroit Devils with Toughie Brashun but probably none exist. Also would love to see any games with Julie Patrick and Shirley on the TBirds!
GIVE THE THUNDERBIRDS ALOT OF CREDIT THEY TAPED ALL THERE MATCHES AND THE STATION TELEVISING THE GAMES NEVER RETURNED THE TAPES SO THATS HOW WE ARE SEEING THESE. THANKS KTLA FOR BEING DISHONEST AND NOT RETURNING THEM. WISH CHANNEL 48 IN PHILLY HAD DID THE SAME THING WITH THE WARRIORS GAMES.
Good Old Days đ
Love the T-Birds. Judy Arnold and Barbra Williams were strong competitors. â€ïž
PETER KELLY SKATED WITH A TEAM THAT DOES NOT GET ENOUGH WRITTEN ABOUT THEM "THE AUSTRALIAN KANGAROOS ". BUT I GOT TO KNOW THE CAPTAIN OF THE KANGAROOS ELAINE EVERSON AND SHE GAVE ME HER JERSEY AND SIGN IT AND SADLY I DON'T KNOW IF SHE IS STILL WITH US TODAY BUT WHAT A GREAT PERSON SHE WAS . THE KANGAROOS WERE A BIG POWERFUL TEAM.
The two Judy's going at it already even before The Bombers and Warriors were created.
These Hawks became The Northern Hawks wirh John Parker and Betty Brown who taught me as a kid how to skate on That Banked Track.
This is a classic. Probably the only footage of Dave Pound and Joan Kazmirski
Good point. I have never seen anything with Dave either.
Was one of Pound as Coach
When there doing these can someone write out the team members on each team here. Thanks
Game brings back memories of being at the Olympic. Great team rosters but clueless commentators ruin the video.
Completely agree with you. Awful announcing.
Right? Who are these guys? As if they got thrown in at the last minute without knowing anything about the sport.
I finally just turned the audio off.
Too bad they never recorded the match races.
TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU. AT OUR CHERRY HILL ARENA IN HADDONFIELD N J. WE HAD TWO OF THE MOST BRUTAL MATCH RACE EVER HELD. ONE OF THOSE WAS A BLOODY ONE BETWEEN LESTER QUARLES AGAINST JIM TROTTER AND ONE BETWEEN RONNIE RAINS AGAINST CHIEF JOHN PARKER DURING A PRESIDENTIAL CUP .PLAYOFF AND IT WAS BRUTAL AND A RARETY BETWEEN TWO VILLAIN COACH'S PARKER WITH THE HAWKS AND RAINS WITH THE NEW YORK BOMBERS.
DavePound great guy perished way too early! Great player Coach G.M.
Someone needed to terminate the Equipment Manager if they had one!
What ever happened to Barbara Williams where is she now?
I wish they would had not intercut those pictures of Peter and Ed it ruined these timeless tapes.
The consistent excuse of "Helmets were lost in transit". Helmets were not used in 1967 in Roller Games to define the Jammers. I don't have an issue with Peter Kelly after all he was a former Skater himself. I've heard a better Ed Darian. Not with these replayed games.
