Judge: "The defendant has been found guilty of murdering his parents. Do you have anything to say before I pass sentence?" Defence Lawyer: "I ask the court to show leniency on the compassionate grounds that my client is now an orphan."

This one.

Seriously? It's a footy expression that's been in common usage for eons. It refers to the state of mind when a player runs onto the field (crosses the white line) and instantly becomes more fired up and physically aggressive. It can also relate to a non-football extracurricular activity (cough Bailey Smith cough)

Rowan Marshall might be available.

Compelling reasons to pick him up. On the positive side, he'll be 32 next year. Pass.

The news of Choco getting the bullet has given me an odd craving. Not a great day for the extended family with his son-in-law Dylan Shiel also on the way out of Essendon. (And no, we shouldn't pick him up.)

Is Kalani the right guy? just getting in early

Speaking of which, did Don Quixote call his donkey "Oaty"?

Just redid my sums and you're right, dammit.

Onya Bluey! Funniest poster on this site without doubt.

I think it's still possible that Collingwood miss the final eight. For that to happen, the following needs to occur: 1 - Melbourne d Collingwood, preferably by a decent margin OK, unlikely but not impossible 2 - GCS d Port Adelaide and also Essendon Probable 3 - Hawthorn d Brisbane Possible 4 - GWS d St Kilda Probable 5 - Fremantle/Bulldogs result not important if 1 - 4 happen

We would have won if the quarter was a bit longer, given our magnificent comeback at the end. Bloody cheating timekeepers.

It's said that revenge is a dish best served cold and they also say that revenge is sweet. So essentially, revenge is just like ice cream.

Look at it as a form of pain relief. You can't eliminate the cause, but you can alleviate the symptoms.

May I humbly suggest the "ignore" option.

Didn't Hird rule himself out? Not that it matters, it's Buckley's job if he so desires it would appear.

Tsk tsk. Kookaburras are a protected species and it is against the law to kill them or, your deity of choice forbid, eat them. However, I have to confess that I did try some roasted kookaburra at a dinner party one night. It has a most unusual taste, somewhere between platypus and orange-bellied parrot.

I've just taken a quick trip forward in the time machine and recorded half a dozen of the many questions asked by the panel and the corresponding answers given by unsuccessful applicants. 1 - Where do you see the team finishing in 2026? "I'd say my biggest weakness is not listening". 2 - The position requires a responsible person. "I'm your man. In my last job, when anything went wrong, they said I was responsible". 3 - What is your greatest strength? (30 minutes later ) "I'm very comfortable with silence". 4 - Would you be willing to relocate? "Of course. Where would you like me to sit?" 5 - Why did you leave your last job? "It was something my boss said". What did your boss say? "You're fired". 6 - Can you perform under pressure? "No, but I'll give Bohemian Rhapsody a go".

Oh alright, if nobody else can be bothered. May in for Adams (omitted) and Sharp in for Windsor (injured) as widely predicted. Luke Bruest Breust has announced that he won't be going around again next year.

I hope Kalani isn't disheartened by Jobe's inclusion. We don't want a flat White.

If Buckley's comments are a case of divan intervention, you'd have to say sofa so good.

You're punting on the Daly double?

Now that's what I call a Petty complaint.

Bluey's book.

Is Jeffo wearing the Wesley College purple and gold?
