My God, if there is one, this thread just keeps getting worse.

Yet you are constantly drawn back to it Ernie.

And, further, if there "is one", I am surprised that he/she hasn't cast your miserable spirit to perdition long ago

This is the game where we really need to smash Carlton and go on with it.

It is the typical game we would lose in the past 10 years. 

PS. Sorry to throw in a footy post.

Good luck with that Mr. Leg

Yes true Uncle, I am drawn back to it, but that does not give the thread any credibility. 

I have long known of my own failings but perhaps you need a new angle,

I suspect that only a few still visit this thread, 

I have an affection for you but its time to move on.

Let me think about it Daisy. 

I would not want to besmirch Gertrude's reputation. 

She was a God and me a mire mortal and admirer.

To "reclaim" implies that something has been lost.

How can this be on the thread that cannot be derailed?

Gawn paying 51.00* for the Brownlow ... nice odds. 

He could dominate a dozen games or more and with the no-third-man-up rule in vogue, he may stand out even more.  16 votes in his breakout year last season could be a pointer too.

One could say she pushed the envelope .

 

Just saw in what constitutes banter after the game, where commentators become even more indulgent that BT was asked if he was returning to Romsey.

is there something even more sinister that we should know about?

You have no respect or decency. Given your own interests I would have expected bitter.

Wouldn't think it would be an invite but can agree that it would be a deserved flogging
