Demonised

I heard it was just some of the boys discussing the Jetsons' dog ...

I've held this one over from after the Carlton game: 'Okay, we've seen Plan A (move it deliberately along the boundary line) Plan B (Move it more quickly with some switching). How likely is it we're going to see a Plan C?'

He'll always be remembered for getting the ball to Harmes who got it to Jack Watts to run in and goal to beat the Pies. Thank you, OMac.

Could it be that the draw isn't about fairness, it's about maximising attendances and thus revenue? Maybe?

I'll hold my question redux until next week.

Interesting. And what about if everyone had 50/50 home and away games?

Okay, we've seen Plan A (move it deliberately along the boundary line) Plan B (Move it more quickly with some switching). How likely is it we're going to see a Plan C from Goody come finals time, something he's kept up his sleeve? Or are we going to 'rely on our systems' from here on in?

So many dump kicks from him.

I'm thinking that all this is a ruse and that Goody has a Cunning Plan which will be unveiled in two weeks, taking all opposition teams by surprise having been lulled into a false sense of security and they will all be blown away and we'll have back to back flags. .

Not grammar, but I suspect those paying attention to this thread might be intrigued by this language quirk noted in 'Elements of Eloquence' by Mark Forsyth.

I understand that some people would stongly disagree, but a blanket declaration that it's wrong for non-living things to have possession is just ... wrong, in oral or written English, in common usage or formal. It serms to be a style guide thing in a particular circle.

Sorry, can't go with you on this. Non-living objects can have possession and 'the table's legs' is perfectly correct. It may not jibe with someone's style guide, but that's just a preference.

Another quality episode. Incisive, thoughtful, passionate. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Injuries.

And please, people, remember that it's a possessive pronoun with a gerund, always! And don't get me started on the subjunctive ...

Be careful. Unlike previous New Balance sales, this is on "selected products only".

A good film's a good film, in any decade. And this one had Ingrid Bergman. Well worth watching.

Err ... Gaslight (1944)? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaslight_(1944_film)

They don't make 'em like that any more.

I think our our goal scoring finals series last year is lingering long in the memories of pundits ... They want us to do that again, which would be fun, but I'd rather we did it in finals this year rather than now.

I grew up in Geelong. I find them hard to like.

Genuine question: do our 9 free kicks include OOB on the full?
