That should’ve been play on. This is so frustrating to watch.

GO SAINTS!!!! Am I the only one watching this match? 😁

By anyone other than MFC fans… Robbie F. ☹️

Andy, surely we don’t tolerate personal attacks on our own players (?) The above is a horrible insult and has ZERO to do with footy. I was gonna just report this but I feel it needs calling out publicly otherwise it will never end. @Demonland

Don’t know if anyone has touched on it (coz can’t bear to read the bile on this embarrassing thread) but wanted to give a huge shoutout to everyone who attended the match last night. Thank you for being there to support our boys, who I’m sure are just as disappointed as we are. I couldn’t attend since I was at my son’s school concert but even in hindsight I wish I could’ve been there, especially since we lost, coz that’s when our players need us most. Oh and also because apart from your own kid’s five minutes on stage, two hours of everyone else’s kids performing is akin to torture. My ears are still bleeding. 😭

Tried to read this thread (ever keen to learn) but couldn’t get past the second page. The usual culprits with their ridiculous comments (eg: Smith can’t play football… 🤮 and that’s just one of many, many examples of BS). The post above pretty much says it all (thanks Layz) about some of the nasty people on here. I have a theory that gets stronger by the day: DL has some failed aspirants, people who always dreamed of making it in the AFL but weren’t quite good enough. The bitterness is channeled towards DL in the form of bagging our players, oftentimes personally and mostly unjustified. Just my take on what I read here all too often. Anyways, onto our next challenge… GO DEES!!! ❤️💙

But it’s different when you’re the grandparent right? Aren’t kids generally well-behaved with grandparents despite being little [censored] at home?

All of the above. But that was as a little kid with big brothers. Windy Hill was about the only ground they wouldn’t take me to. My mum wouldn’t allow it. The things I used to see and hear that my brothers would tell me to keep quiet about would have her rolling in her grave, even now. Princes Park was our most frequented ground, my brothers being diehard Carlton fans. One time I was caught up in a crowd crush at a Carlton vs Collingwood match when oppo fans were brawling at a narrow exit. I passed out and came to in the hands of the St John’s Ambulance ppl. I had bruised ribs and a broken toe yet my mum never found out about it. 😁

The fans? Yes. Especially Port. But in every other respect Geelong is hands down the worst. Apart from being put in a sh!ttty part of the ground, not being allocated enough tickets, the tickets costing twice what we pay for interstate matches and the overall horribleness of being at that godforsaken cow paddock, the ground staff are extremely rude. Any other ground and both banner crews wait together in the race in perfect harmony. Last year at Geelong we were made to wait around the corner in a freezing narrow breezeway for ages under the watchful eye of a very loud and very little man. Yelling at us to move out of the way every time one of those ride-on buggy things came past, must’ve made him feel 10 feet tall. It’s like, dude, you put us here in the first place. Quit your barking. 😁 Then they snap at us while we’re on the ground, telling us to hurry when it’s them who’ve kept us waiting. In contrast, their counterparts at Adelaide Oval are the best.

I have, actually. Once you get past the changing dirty nappies phase It seems it’s smooth sailing for the rest of the journey! That is, if you lay the right foundations. 😉 I have three beautiful sons who have been nothing but an absolute joy to raise. I’m ridiculously proud of the men they’ve become. I manufacture great humans, even if I do say so myself. 😁 just a crying shame none of them like footy 😭

I’m actually not going tonight. ☹️ I have to do that thing, what’s it called again, oh yeah… parenting. 😁 My son is performing at his school music festival tonight and really wants me to be there. Besides that, it’s his 18th birthday today. If I had to choose one match I can’t attend this’d be it. I’m not exactly lamenting being unable to go to Mordor to be treated like scum by the most unwelcoming ground staff on the planet in the most inhospitable arena on the planet with the most hostile hosts on the planet.

Thanks a bunch Andy, coz who doesn’t luvs them a good ol’ fashioned hearty pre-lunch cry every now and then, amirite?! 🥺😭🙃

Oh boy. I’m currently in an alternate universe. I don’t know what’s real and what isn’t. Moreover, I don’t care. I need sleep. Lots of it. Give Mrs dw my best wishes. 🥰

STOP POSTING GROSS THOUGHTS AND I’LL STOP YELLING AT YOU!!! Anyways, unless up-skirting in public restrooms is considered photography then I’d hazard a guess that BBO isn’t into photography.

Must you, dw? No really, MUST YOU?!

What’s it got to do with you anyways? If 12345_54321 takes issue with anything I’ve said I’m sure he’d address it with me directly. Why does he need a mouthpiece? And who assigned you for the gig? We both know your agenda. Please take your bitterness and resentment elsewhere.

Please excuse my ignorance, but who or what is “Badloss”??!! Also, when do you turn 8?

All good DZ and Jaded. The comment made by the Almighty Dazzling one was fairly and squarely directed at me. Subtlety’s not his forte. LOL, suggesting a poster is owed an apology for being doubted re their intel, especially when the poster has got it wrong in the past. Imagine an apology being issued every time that happened. 🤣 We’d need a dedicated thread for it and it would rival the No T$ thread in terms of length. Hells, we’d need an entire separate website. 😁😁😁 pfft some people. 🙄

LOL if this actually was an accepted excuse. Unless of course Geelong players are the human equivalent of seahorses. Short of that, the dog ate my homework would be a better excuse.

A naughty portmanteau 😉

I remember this. Bloke should check the use-by date of his sauce. Methinks it might be off. Time to hit the shops and get a new one. 😁

The sexting was two-way. They were adults. Tim and he wife worked things out. End of story. Also, what’s a hooby, Deeves????😂

I’d forgotten all about this. And now he’s their captain. All good, it was years ago, he’s changed his ways, blah blah blah, whatever. Meanwhile Tim Paine is stripped of his captaincy and made to feel like the scum of the earth because he sent d*** pics to a consenting adult six years ago. Moreover, that’s the captaincy he was unexpectedly thrown into when our then captain, vice-captain and coach decided to cheat on the world stage. Cool. 🙄
