Sack the receptionist - the old one quit after a nervous breakdown - two days in and we lose by 10 goals.

Actually only 13 days. Tomorrow will be two weeks :P

    He's had 2 weeks, and look at the state of the club. 10 goal loss to the Suns ? He's gotta go

    And do what your name suggests? ;)

    I was trying to hold back my enthusiasm for that movie to come out.... well founded in doing so. Even with the low expectations that steaming pile of septic garbage did not meet any of them. Jackson you are an over-rated hack!

    Terrible. I would desribe it as "Lord of the Dwarves by Disney" (or "Snow White with Trolls, and Snow White is a Hobbit").

    What's most tragic is the EPIC soundtrack from the LOTR films, one of the very best things about that triology, was made to sound tired, almost vapid.

    Anyhow, a bit off-topic. :D

    Think we could all use a bit of off-topic.

    FWIW, they weren't going for an epic sound on the soundtrack. Scored and arranged differently to try and achieve that. Perhaps should have gone the whole hog with a different composer.

    Perhaps there's something in that for our own PJ to draw on ... though not sure what. Replace the bugler?

    Parts sounded exactly the same, and its now lost its impact through overuse.

    That said, if you ever get the chance to hear the score played live, do it. Last year a friend convinced me to attend a screening of The Two Towers at the Opera House, with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra playing live. Whether you like orchestral music or not, worth very penny.

    We can't afford to sack him.

    Gorgoroth pointed out that it was only 13 days, and not the full fortnight. So ... I decided to wait. Another day, still nothing. He definitely has to go.

    Reading this i have remembered "Two Sheds" Jackson. A great poster.

    Hope he is still watching all this somewhere.

    R.I.P. 2 Sheds...

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
