Sorry, @monoccular. I should know by now when to bough out gracefully.

Mason Wood? Wood grows on trees. Sean Lemmens perhaps? Twiggy Dunne? (might be a bit old) I could branch out, but I'll leaf it alone for now.

Even if we win both our remaining games, the percentage gap is too vast.

But ... but ... @Clintosaurus assured us that it's all rigged by AFL HQ and that they have decided that Carlton will be the 2024 Premiers by beating Collingwood in the Grand Final.

It's a bit unfair to single out Kolt's shocker. Both teams missed several gettable chances, among them Demons such as JVR, Nibbler and Billings.

It was enough to win the game for Port Adelaide.

That's a very good question. I have a similar query. I'm attending the funeral of a bloke next week who was a fanatical golfer. Would it be appropriate, as the coffin is being lowered into the grave, to yell out "Get in the hole!"?

Are you hoping for a dead cat bounce?

Why would a fly attack the maggots? They're his offspring.

That new Hawthorn recruit seems to be getting a lot of publicity, not just here but overseas as well. Seems like everybody's talking about the Hawk Tuah girl.

It's rumoured that former Hawthorn Football Club President and Liberal stalwart Jeff Kennett has a tattooed tribute to the last three Australian Prime Ministers from his political party. He has Tony Abbott on his left butt cheek, Scott Morrison on the right ... and Malcolm in the middle.

As far as lame jokes go, I just hope that you haven't reached a plateau. That's the highest form of flattery.

No way! They'd have to throw in LDU as well to make the deal fair for all parties.

I think he needs to get a new one. Not only is it too close to the ground, but it appears to have a big crack in it.

That's something a troll would say. Look, you've made your point. Your views are well known. No need to keep repeating the same thing.

Best to ignore the troll, @WalkingCivilWar. It's been making the exact same post every week for months now.

Medicinal use only?

Quite a bit of discussion on the "Goodwin is the MAN" thread yesterday, @Timothy Reddan-A'Blew.

The 36 year old Goldstein who's in and out of a mediocre Essendon team and who will retire this year?

How do you feel about Kalani White and, potentially, his two younger brothers?

If he slips while sitting on a knife's edge, being traded will be the least of his problems.

Like most of us I suspect, I'm against this unnecessary change to our competition structure. Shakespeare summed up my response very neatly.

Little known fact - its inventor wanted to call it a "brella", but hesitated at the Patents Office.

Demonlanders who attended that year's B & F report that he was almost in tears at being discarded. It's also not true that Sestan is from Mansfield, although he did play there briefly. He's a Xavier College boy.
