Can someone tell Abbey Holmes to tone down on the dramatics?

Pendles has got a minor knock to the leg, not a career ending fractured leg in 8 pieces.

 

Leave Abbey alone BBP!

Pies first gamer, Irish recruit Anton Tohill is son of Anthony Tohill who played a game for us in the 90’s. He is listed as 200 cm! Interesting to see how he goes.

Why not!   Can't stand Port and would love to see them miss the double chance / home finals.  Hec I'd love to see them miss all together.   That song pre match and Kochy always predicting they are on for the premiership every season ?

They even played that song with no crowd in attendance. ? 

Port very unimpressive. Fortunately for them Collingwood is way worse.

Terrible match.

And Travis are a scots band. You might remember the tune Why Does It Always Rain On Me. All Celtic supporters I believe (puke).

Yeah, they're weegies. They took their name from the main character in the Wim Wenders movie Paris, Texas.

I loved that movie. 

Can someone explain what the rule is that pertains to "front on contact" is?

Why does it only apply to marking contests and not when a ball is rolling in a particuler direction.

The way I see it is you cannot take a mark running in the same direction as the ball for fear of touching an opponent running the other way.

Generally I love women in the media and can't stand the blokes. But when AH gets going . . . . . . she goes off like a frog in a sock.

Port love an easy kill.

And why do the bottom teams play out of their skins against us but turn to water against the other contenders?

Yeah, I haven't seen it in ages but bringing it up now makes me want to see who might be streaming it online. I love the desert landscape and spent a bit of time around the Mojave a few years ago. One of my favourite films is called Bagdad Cafe which was filmed in the area and has the same sort of vibe to it.

Glaswegians (from Glasgow), or Glesga' as we say.

I think it is about interfering with the marking contest/genuine attempt.  Players who don’t have eyes on the ball and collide with a marking player are deemed to be interfering with a genuine attempt.

And that song Calling You from Baghdad Cafe is so good! Another film from that era was the Coen Brothers effort, Raising Arizona.

It’s big in Northern Ireland too. Gets a good run in Derry Girls.

Yeah, love that song from the movie Hardtack. The cafe is in Newberry Springs and was known as the Sidewinder Cafe back then. I camped next to it for a few days when I was taking photos in the area. Barely a soul around. The film itself has a beautiful light to it. 

Like the look of Henry from Collingwood.
