Um



Recommended Posts

Best footy podcast around, it's a never miss for me. I haven't noticed the "um's" but even if there are too many remember these guys are not pros, they are doing it for the love of the club and to provide you content!

One day I will get around to that 5 star review...(Sorry don't use iPhone).

Better check with @Binmans PA and check we’ve got elocution sessions in @binman’s diary rather than electrocution sessions….

Yep, all booked in, in amongst the interviews for the forthcoming biography.

Thanks @binman, I hadn’t noticed that.

You might need to have a quiet word with your assistant, @Binmans PA😀

It wouldn't even let me add an apostrophe. But you're right, I buggered that up.

This is close to thread of the year so far. Really brilliant content peeps.

As others have noted, I see the poster has not put his/her/their hand in their/him/her pocket. Immediately disqualifies she/he/them (whatever) from having an opinion.

(When Parkin was coach of Carltank in the 1980's, he used to get lots of letters providing 'feedback'. He said he responded to the letters that came from paid-up members of the club only.)

And I have an opinion as well . . . for all three of the podcasters.

Could you please dumb-down the pod? It's way to intellectual for me. Can you be more like that nice Mr. Robinson on Foxtel maybe? It's all very well having stats at hand Rubbish Binny (name said with affection), but can you just tell me each week if that number 36 is going to kick any goals? And for next week's pod, can George tell me if he thinks Harmes from Melbourne can win the Brownlow this year? And Andy, May is my favourite player. Do you think he can win the goal kicking this year?

I haven't noticed, but I listen at 1.5 speed all my podcasts. 

The podcast producer could run it through Descript, really good at moving all the filler words and spaces in the final podcast version.

I have tried similar "remove" filler words and dead air apps before and they have always made it sound unnatural and creates a lot more post production work for me than I have time for.

Also I love the irony of a double post with advice on brevity. 😜

It's a baffling aspect of today's world that people get free content with hours of work behind it, yet complain as if they're a shareholder or something.

You do terrific work fellas and it has really grown beautifully over the years . If the pod had a flavour it would be umami 😘👌

Some posters have said that the plodders podders are not professionals. I vehemently disagree. I know of no other place I can get consistently high quality, intelligent, thoughtful and insightful analysis of the footy, not unembuggared by blokeyness, mindless product placement or just plain old imbecileness.

Improper noun then?

A long time ago but weren’t there proper nouns (capitalised) and common nouns though it probably now regarded as elitist or classist or colonialist or demeaning to use such differentiation.

i thought it just required three consecutive dots?

from first gogol search result (and thus, the only one that anyone will pay attention to):

An ellipsis ( ... ) consists of three evenly spaced periods and is used to indicate the omission of words or suggest an incomplete thought. In general, an ellipsis should be treated as a three-letter word, with a space, three periods and a space.
 

Scholars like my good self insist on little ums between our dots. Unspaced ellipses are for the likes of John Ralph, twitterists, and @WalkingCivilWar after too much caffeine.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
