Depresses me that a grown adult doesn't know the difference between his and he's.

Where did this come from? When I was growing up I never knew anyone to confuse these two words but now I see it all the time.

So it was a quick reply, but didn't cover the points in my post, any answer on those? Nice little joke by the way, of course if it was original, Idris Elba would be proyd of you

 

Apologies, it was pretty immature, but I couldn't resist.

- Mitchell has one of the best footy brains and awareness I've seen. Further to that, his initial acceleration is quick enough to break away and deliver the kick or handball.

- Lewis has been made to look a better player than he actually is IMO. Pace is average, quicker than Trengove.

- Kieren Jack, I disagree on. He has pace and a very, very good sidestep which allows him to quick-foot out of traffic.

- Kennedy is a beast, 193cm and 100kg. He doesn't need to be quick, and I'd say the same about Scott Thompson.

Idris appreciates that Saty.

And even though I've delved into this debate about pace with you, I actually very much support Trengove's contract extension, and not for sentimental reasons. I think he has it in him.

Agree. Has become depressingly familiar.

Shithouse primary school teachers, it can't be anything else.

How can something that's "in your own opinion" be without doubt?

A turn of phrase that should have been changed when I added "IMO".

Definitely an online thing. With the advent of MSN messenger, people needed to write things, but there was never any grammar checking. This lack of regard for grammar has flowed into the new social medias such as FB, Twitter etc. In fact, I'd argue Twitter encourages poor grammar with its character limit.

in some cases yes, but i think in the main it is shithouse reading and spelling directives that are forced on teachers by the lunatic ideologues in the education department

Every time I see this thread title I think it says 'Trengove sings'.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
