  1. You might be thinking of a different Kennedy there, dc. Josh (of West Coast) was born in Melbourne, and grew up in Canberra, Townsville, and Perth, with his family finally settling in Northampton, a small country town north of Geraldton, Western Australia. He was recruited by Carlton from East Fremantle.
  2. I know right? How does that even happen for a team that finished top 4. It is absolute BS. It's because the fixture is partly based on the finishing positions on the ladder. WC were 9th in 2021 and Collingwood ended up 17th. There was no way of telling that WC would implode so spectacularly this season or that Collingwood would surprise us all by performing as well as they have.
  3. It's not so much the frees they receive, but all the ones that aren't paid against them for holding the ball and throwing.

  5. That doesn't help! When you say "queue", do you mean "cue"?
  6. Is that a FNQ saying? What does it mean?
  7. Errr ... did you actually read the article? The author explains how they do it.
  8. He has to run around in the shower to get wet.
  9. We've all been expecting an aging Geelong to fall off the cliff for what seems like many years now. In this article, Jake Niall sets out his reasons why they continue to stay at the pointy end of the ladder. https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/the-magic-pudding-where-cats-have-edge-on-the-competition-20220730-p5b5wc.html
  10. Nah, I wouldn't take him on. He's too well versed for me.
  11. Are you telling me you dictionaried?
  12. It would appear that you are suffering from premature capitulation.
  13. We beat them in the 1989 Elimination Final.
  14. Given your stated musical preferences, I'm not sure if they would be your cup of tea, PF. This early song of theirs would be a good starting point. If you like it, I'd recommend "Frontier Psychiatrist" as the next stepping stone. Their style could be described as electronic and they make extensive use of samples. In this song, they used something like 3,500 vinyl samples!
  15. Anyway, back to laughing at Carlton ...
  16. Great effort by Jess. She's a champion! This is not having a go at you Redleg, but why do commentators use "medal" as a verb? It's like saying that in the 2021 Grand Final, Melbourne players flagged. Or premiered Or cupped.
  17. Try Ebenezer Scrooge in Charles Dickens' 1843 novel "A Christmas Carol".
  18. I love that he's played more games for us (96 so far) than he did for Essendon (84). Four more games and we'll have first dibs on his offspring and, if he plays next year, 200 games is within reach.
  19. Their percentage was 135 coming into tonight. It will only increase by a tiny margin. edit: It went from 135.1 to 135.5.
  20. Sophia Loren even sang about it!
  21. Bing Crosby ended up with a bung knee after he banged it on a bong in Bengal.
  22. This thread is now becoming unhinged.
