One example of (too) many: She was tasked with explaining why no 50-metre penalty was awarded to North in the final minute of a match vs Collingwood when North were trailing by one point and Bailey Scott marked and was immediately rushed at by two Collingwood players, Sidebottom and I think it was Beau McCreery. A 50-metre penalty would’ve put Scott in the goal square, almost guaranteeing a five-point win. What does Kane do? She publicly admits she sought advice from Brad Scott when it came to explaining this howler. Then she declares that in future she’ll not be fronting the public on matters such as this. What??! If I’m sch!ttt at an important part of my job I don’t get to say welp, not doing that anymore, and still expect to keep my job, let alone getting paid the same.

None of this matters. And it didn’t matter at the time. He was simply never missing finals. The outcome was decided probably as early as within minutes of the incident, or it may as well have been since Maynard was playing in finals come hell or high water. As @Redleg pointed out, Collingwood supporters (the MRO and Gleeson) making such important decisions about a Collingwood player is wrong on every level. Imagine if it was you who had to adjudicate and it was a Melbourne player and finals were on the line. I know I would struggle with impartiality. Fact: the AFL is Collingwood’s little b!ttch. PS: at the time, for about five minutes I admired Laura Kane. I was sucked in. I thought wow she’s actually going up against the MRO, this is ballsy. But she’s just like Dillon and co… weak as pizz. Spineless. Impotent. Puppets on a string.

Didn’t Moore injure both Kieren Briggs and Jarrod Witts last season with a similar action? Not as devastating as the Tracc incident but I’m sure one of them ended up with a fractured vertebra as a result.

The AFL put forth the flimsiest, weakest ‘argument’ and it was painfully obvious that it was a token show of doing the right thing re head trauma. They couldn’t have argued more pathetically if they tried.

McGuire’s middle name ain’t humility, that’s for sure. Nor is it decency, sensitivity, tact, respect, the list goes on. And why the hell was he the MC at RDB’s memorial last year?! Some posters on here said it’s because he’s so good at the job but I don’t care how good he is at MC-ing, they should’ve appointed a Melbourne or Carlton person, not him. It was bad enough when he first walked out onto the stage, just his mere presence. But he mentioned Collingwood at least eight times (we were counting) at points in proceedings when there really wasn’t a reason for it. That egotistical fat-head POS makes me sick. End of rant. As you were. 😁

Stranded on 199 games 😭 We have a few milestones in the first few rounds next season: Currently: Fritta 149 games Knuckles 48 Spargo 98 Spaz 95 Providing they all play, that is

Best of luck, Lachie.

My mistake. I thought he said India RUIN cricket.

And it’s a shame because it doesn’t need any drama at all. Maybe casual fans like the “spice” added by the media but I reckon true fans just wanna enjoy the actual game.

It wasn’t good and I’m sure the match referee will deal with the situation accordingly. But what sch!ttz me no end is the relentless talk about it. I’d rather the commentators didn’t mention it every five minutes. The match so far is highly entertaining, that should be enough to keep us viewing. There’s no need for the big song and dance production. PS to say India ruin cricket is just silly.

Our Demon Army TikTok creator @Katrina Dee Fan made this… https://vt.tiktok.com/ZS6jUfqnh/

Not deserving in your opinion?

Hmmmm, not sure Demonland is ready for such an explosive collaboration not sure I’m ready either 😂 PS: it’s a minimum 3-hour trip from mine to Casey by PT (6-hour round trip). I do it for our women’s matches but dunno if it’s worth the effort just to watch training from behind locked gates while running the risk of being slitherer-ed.

Maybe they’re both seriously deranged but the second one hides it well… for now. 😉 I have three new year wishes. Firstly, @WERRIDEE goes a week without naming a best 22. I’ll even settle for five days. Secondly, @daisycutter uses capital letters, even if only occasionally. Finally, @picket fence STOPS USING CAPITALS and too many exclamation marks!!!!!!!!!!! SEE, PICKET FENCE? NOT NICE TO BE YELLED AT, IS IT???!!!!!!!!!!!!

January 9th at Casey Fields.

I have a son the same age as Fritta. He wants to know if Mrs Fritta wears socks with his face on them. It’s a valid question. i have a framed photo of Fritta on the lounge room wall. My son asked if Pauline (Fritta’s mum) has a framed photo of him (my son) on her lounge room wall. She said, “Did you kick six goals in a grand final?” He said, “I couldn’t. We were in lockdown here.” Then he said, “Besides, I would’ve kicked seven.” 😁 Note: this kid wouldn’t know a footy if it bounced up and hit him in the face.

🎊🎈🎄🥂⭐️ 🎁😘 ♥️🎅🏽 MERRY XMAS Y’ALL!

It’s heartwarming to see how many of our players and coaches and admin. staff and fans have donated. Even $5 is a worthy contribution. As they say, it all adds up.

Thank you for posting this, wouldn’t have known about it otherwise. Last night I posted the link in the DA general WhatsApp and quite a few have donated ❤️💙 Almost $41,000 of the target ($70,000) has been raised. Hopefully they reach the target, and hoping Disco’s Dad is on the improve 🤞🏽

The neph out-curled him that’s for sure, but last I heard… no mullet. And I’m sure the neph’s mum would like to keep it that way. 😁

… and the influence trickles down to fans. After training the other week a lovely fellow DL-er (👋) and his preteen nephew (who has an awesome big mop of curls) and I asked Kolt to have a pic taken with the boy coz curls and lots of ‘em. Kolt says, “Hey I love your hair. Now all you need is a mullet!” 😳

Not gonna happen. 😭 And we’ve got Salo to blame for it was he who took Fritta to the barber and advised him to get “something different.” 🤣
