Demonstone

You'd be more at home in the grammar thread, Jimmy!

Sir Why You Little: This is what a typical Demonland thread looks like. Lord Nev: No it's not. I'm sorry SWYL, but you've got it all wrong. binman: I'd like to add a brief comment but we all know that's not bloody likely. old dee: This thread will never be any good. It's doomed to fail dismally. picket fence: Sheeeit!!!!! I'm more EXCITED about this thread than BIG KEV could ever be!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jaded No More: I (censored) hate Geelong and this thread is almost as bad. Clintosaurus: The umpires will influence this thread. It's the narrative that the AFL and media want. Lucifers Hero: Can the thread title be changed to "What They Are Saying At Brunton Avenue"? daisycutter: i don't see how capital letters could possibly improve this thread. Ethan Tremblay: This thread has sewn up a trade coup for MFC. Make of that what you will. Bitter but optimistic: Has anybody "maid" a double entendre yet? WalkingCivilWar: Have some "manors" Uncle Bitters. Soz, but Ima say it anyways. faultydet: Sigh. This is just more woke virtue signalling. rpfc: I've nothing to say but here's a GIF for you. Cranky Franky: I object to everybody and everything in this stupid thread. dazzledavey36: I've been watching this thread since its junior days and knew it would make the top level. willmoy: This is a biased thread because of the maggots. adonski: This thread would be far better if Jacob van Rooyen was in it. Demonstone: Oh dear. This thread is riddled with spelling mistakes and grammatical errors. WERRIDEE: I've made up a possible team using the names of all the posters in this thread. Engorged Onion: This thread is loaded. Or is it? joeboy: Worst thread ever. Demonland: This thread is now closed. Take it to the "Changes For Next Thread" please.

If Josh Kennedy didn't want to retire, he'd still be playing at West Coast. Can't see him coming to Melbourne.

Meanwhile, Brodie Grundy has been ruled out for the rest of the season with a stress fracture in his ankle and Jamie Elliott has re-signed for a further three years at Pieland.

I'm wearing my favourite t-shirt at this very moment!

You set 'em up and I'll knock 'em down! There's no apostrophe in "apostrophes".

They aren't the only two options Macca and you know that. It's not an either/or proposition. I think your problem is that you can't handle anybody having a different opinion to yours. You may keep arguing if you wish. I'm out.

1. I don't think he's the answer to our forward problems. 2. I don't hate Jesse. 3. This is not about forgiveness, it's about getting the right footballer for our needs. You've managed to convince yourself that Jesse Hogan is a player we should entice back to the club. I disagree with your opinion. There's no need to try and make it about anything else.

No, Freo were the ones who valued him so highly.

Dom Sheed.

Demonlanders trying to convince themselves that Cripps won't get rubbed out.

Fremantle was Jesse's second chance. GWS was his third. I'm not in favour of risking a fourth. We traded him for a reason. In horseracing parlance, prefer others.

Did somebody say "one trick pony"?

Don't blame the umpires. We didn't take our chances and they did and we were outplayed. Losing to this mob is always the bitterest pill to swallow. Goodnight all.

Who would know more about one trick ponies than Mister Ed?

Donation made to a most worthy cause. Hard to believe it's been ten years since we lost Jimmy. I'd caution posters not to google "Reach Round". It may lead you to sites best avoided.

How do you feel about people who think that "laconic" means the same thing?

To say it's a cliched, catch-all pejorative would be to risk straying into the muddy waters of politics.

Malapropism is the use of an incorrect word in an amusingly inappropriate way and may be deliberate or accidental, but is more commonly the latter.

I thought he was close to their best player on Friday night.

Inspired by adonski: Disinterested: Unbiased. Uninterested: Don't care.

I wouldn't class that as a malapropism.

I wonder if Longmuir meant indifferences or differences? One for the grammar thread, perhaps?

Let me vent my spleen a little more. 1. "You're bias". You can have bias, in which case you are biased. It's a noun, not a verb. 2. "That's cringe". It may make you cringe, in which case it's cringeworthy. 3. "Get off of". An Americanism that just grates. 4. "Allot" means to distribute, to allocate. If there is plenty of something, there's a lot of it.
