  1. You have to pick your fights. We can't win this one. A week for that is par for the course. Take it and move on.
  2. How do you feel about their music?
  3. Has it really been that long? How embarrassing.
  4. I've been doing a little research on the name "Yartapuulti" and it apparently relates to that time when Port Adelaide draped entire bays at their ground with tarpaulins in an attempt to disguise the small attendances. Roughly translated, the word means "Yer tarps are ugly". To this day, Port Adelaide supporters pay homage to their heritage by singing along to the classic song "Never Tear Up The Tarps" before each home game.
  5. In round figures, our percentage today was 200% and Hawthorn's was 50%. We doubled their score plus change.
  6. For all that, they only outscored us by 10 points in that quarter. Hawthorn's last quarters this year have been as bad as ours have been good. Don't fret, Demons fans. We'll be sitting on top of the ladder tonight.
  7. No Petty no Melbourne.

    Interesting but perhaps not the right choice of word there, @Katrina Dee Fan! My doctor once prescribed suppositories but, not only did they taste terrible, they did nothing and I may as well have stuck them up my backside.

    I get the feeling we're going to have smoke blown up our collective chimneys.
  10. I think they're referring to Hawthorn forward, Jacob Koschitzke, not our esteemed. Mr Pickett.

    Can we start a crowd funding page to buy @AzzKikA a pair of scissors?
  12. I could certainly do without the seemingly obligatory slow motion close up on the face of the goalkicker shouting "Come on!" after every goal.
  13. Petty wouldn't be playing on Mihocek unless we sent him to the backline. You probably meant another "M" Collingwood defender. Murphy or Moore perhaps?

    Siri is unavailable right now. Will Homer suffice?

    From Simon Goodwin this morning. Don't expect to see Salem this week. Meanwhile, Goodwin said rebounding half-back Christian Salem (knee) faced more time on the sidelines, but fellow defender Michael Hibberd (managed) was expected to return against the Hawks.

    Close - no cigar.

    When all the boys lined up at school for a scratch match and the two captains took turns in picking players for their team, you get the feeling that little Ralphy was the last one to get selected.

    That's a very healthy list. Does Selwyn get the same kudos that Burgess did when things are going well?
  20. I think sporran is appropriate when you consider what is commonly found underneath one.
  21. It's sort of fitting that May's 200th game is against the Mayblooms.
  22. Will Verrall is a young, developing ruckman. I've heard that he is very big (and tall as well).
  23. I THOUGHT it was ONLY every third or FOURTH word that she EMPHASISES.
  24. You could combine the training report with a cooking segment and call it "Chicken Kev". Alternatively, you could play up the training spy angle and call it "Double O Kevin".
