My brother married a Pole, you have my deepest sympathy respect!

If two coaches always agree then one of them is redundant. If they always disagree both are redundant - Apologies to Ezra Pound

Only a fool would try to win. "I am sorry you were right." Works a treat, regardless of the facts. A pyrrhic victory is not worth it.

Are you suggesting that an intelligent person would not barrack for Melbourne? You may have a point.

Resorting to physical violence to me means that you have lost the argument. I am a big fan of pointing to the scoreboard. (When we win) (Shutting up when we lose) In an advanced society there is no place for punching people. Probably no place for public drunkeness and no place for stupidity. Violence is not a solution. For those advocating that the Hawthorn supporter got what he deserved I say an intelligent human would assess the situation and walk away knowing that there is no benefit in escalating the situation. An intelligent human will take in all available information (likelihood of CCTV for instance - or retaliation from hoards of opposition supporters - the possibility of accidentally killing someone and going to gaol) An intelligent human assesses the information and makes informed decisions. An intelligent person does not put themselves or loved ones at risk. No one deserves to be hit. Some people need help and guidance, hitting is no solution.

SHOT

Following Uncle Bitters advice about banana placement could be deleterious to your health.

I think that Pert in this scenario would be more a President or Prime Minister and the unit or regiment could be likened to Goodwin & Mahoney. So can I infer that the more removed from day to day management the less impact?

That would be stupid, first you put it in the grinder, then steam the puree and add to a double shot. Funny I thought that was obvious. Must go they a bringing my new jacket.

A strange thing, I have come to this thread to get away from the crazies everywhere else at the moment. Is my judgement impaired? How could this thread contain more sanity that all the ranting newbies elsewhere? Think I need a banana espresso.

ET this site seems to have been infiltrated by a disturbing amount of dross of late, perhaps losing stirs the cesspit.

ワンカー

People on here are calling for Jayden Hunts head and yet he is averaging the same number of goals per game this year as your star Hogan. He has potential to be a star but he is not.He is no Rolls Royce but a Camry with a nice paint job.

Shame it was half price night, the 20% discount would have been bigger at full price.

Pure speculation. You may be right but I have seen no evidence to support your view. Most senior appointments upset someone.

Matuo, this is a partial quote of Caroline Wilson's opinion. It says that past players and other club CEO's were dismayed that "Jackson had been totally shut out of the search for his successor." Nothing is obvious, @old dee is joining dots and jumping to conclusions. Jackson may not have been happy about not being involved in the search for a replacement, but I have seen nothing to suggest that he thought it a bad appointment, it is not obvious to me.

Couldn't hit the water from a boat.

And yet you did.

That's a lot of fingers!

Thats where Tommy Mc started, in defence. And you say "it is much easier to play good defense" You may also note that when switched back to defence against Richmond he had his best stats for the season. As a forward this year both have been poor. Your argument continues to be contradictory, so that is all for me.

You said this year and I showed stats for this year. This year they have both been poor. Let's compare at the same age.

Some may be inclined to give them more than 4 days off. If you know what I mean.

They have both been poor. Weideman has more effective disposals, more tackles and higher Supercoach score. Both have been underperforming, so I say TMac has not been better than Weid.

Seriously? Here are the 2018 draft picks in the 30's As none of them have played a game yet I would argue that he is equal to the best in that group.
