Ethan your various posts suggest that you a disturbed person. This is clear to discerning readers such as myself.

However that aside, you must also be a surreptitious hater of the weagles. I say surreptitious because I presume capital punishment could be enacted for one who supports a team from the evil East.

Given that times are changing, do you think the moment will everarise ( in our lifetimes) when you can safely emerge from the closet.

Back in 2005 I went to a mates house to watch the Grand Final. I took a Sydney Swans flag to show support for the East, as you could imagine, everyone else went for the Eagles. The only time anyone spoke to me was when one person asked if I was "Some kinda poofta?" 

I left shortly after the game finished, and decided to sticky tape the flag to the back of my pushbike. The ride home was only about 2km's. In that time I had a bottle thrown at my back from a passing motorist, a car stop next to me and the driver and passenger get out and try to steal my bike and a car chase me for about 1km. 

Although this was 11 years ago, times don't change so fast over here, so to answer your question bitters, never.

These holding the ball decisions against the tiges are ridiculous 

The Deledio one was correct - fair tackle, pinned his arms and he dropped the ball, which is incorrect disposal.  The Menadue decision was a little harsh though.

Hands down Richmond. Apart from just having a general dislike for them, I can't stand the way they celebrate whenever they have a win. When they beat Brisbane last round you would have thought it was the GF.

Haha! Sucked in, Richmond. They're starting to punch on a bit from frustration. Great stuff

Ebert is bloody annoying. If Dusty wasn't in my SC team I'd love to see him belt him.

Not that I condone violence...just against Ebert.

Wingard and Hartlett are the guys that I hate.

Just started watching Q4

What awful jumpers those  Tiger ones - ever worse than Hawks last week

 

The deliberate OOB needs revamping - that Tiger had absolutely no chance of keeping it in  Absurd  

 

Bruce continues to orgasm whenever he mentions the word Rance.  Is there anything there?

Remember a few months ago when we keen to spend big bucks on A grade Hartlett? Fark me. 

Average of 18 touches this year. Goes missing when it counts. Big reason why port are soft when it matters

dodged a bullet

Surely some day someone will wake up and grab Dustin Martin's outstretched arm and dislocate his shoulder.

Rance spoils footy. 

Cometti : You can't teach that can you? Got his fist exactly to where the ball is.

 

What part of that can't be taught?

The part about having a fist. Either you've got one or you don't.

Can't wait, it's not as if no one is aware that he is going to do it.

    THE CAVALRY ARRIVES by Megg

    The injury plague which has beset the Demons 2024 campaign is finally starting to dissipate and with consecutive wins over GWS Giants and a 2-point nail-biter in Adelade, a sense of optimism is rising.  Some commentators are now asking whether the Dees can make finals? A huge surprise with team selection this week when it was announced that champs Olivia Purcell, Paxy Paxman and Eden Zanker would play.   Hallelujah!  The cavalry has arrived. St Kilda missed the finals last season on pe

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.
