Being that the cliche you have mentioned is about Tom Scully can I please ask moderators to move this to the appropriate thread.

What's the appropriate thread these days?

Addition: "Nothing to see here". Summarily dismisses any point of view as irrelevant - like you have the right to do so. Rating - 9/10.

Not even sure these are all cliches but ...........

"He needs a couple of good pre-seasons "

"Talls take longer to mature"

I love these:

'When he does a preseason he will.....'

'One of our better ball carriers.'

'Watts will prove that's he's better than Nitnat...'

'We should have taken Martyn at 2...'

'I trust the Club.'

[Chook 15,022]

'I trust the Club.'

Somebody probably said that the day that Norm Smith got the sack. It's almost 50 years later and that trust must be starting to run out.

I just wish I didn't have to remove 1/2 my brain to understand what is being said. (Or get a Colling^%#wood suporter to help me.)

'We should have taken Martyn at 2...'

But, we should have

Please....I know, stop picking at my weeping wound.....

'I believe in Tom'.

[Chook 15,022]

"From all reports, Tom Scully is as fine a young man as you could wish to meet and a picture of honesty to boot."

Whatever. A picture of honesty painted by a blind dog with no legs, perhaps.

Old - move on

Anything spouted about politics or religion from any side or angle of those two topics is a cliche.

'I believe in Tom'.

lol

Very good.

Seriously though, if you are 20 years old and a Demon - I will believe you. But that says more about me than anyone else.

I certainly don't believe in the parents though, and now think that they are capable of anything...

But we move on.

It's not really a cliche but " Have a bex and a lie down " really shits me. Anyone under the age 40 has no idea what a bex is let alone taken one.

Having a bex and a lie down is one of my favourite pastimes!

Rhino Richards pulling you into line. So cliched and I hate it!

Posters who assume the role of famous figure and fail to do that character justice.

'I believe in Tom'.

" Tom " himself has already ensured that this cliche will never appear on Demonland again except in a thread such as this

Not using the apostrophe correctly when player's are involved with their manager's and all the extra's they need to do.

[Chook 15,022]

Posters who pretend to be Scottish when they're probably not.
