Bitter but optimistic

Classic picket !!!!!!!!

Max cops plenty of whacks to the head and rarely gets a free Clarrie is in a similar boat. Umpires are [censored] poor in this regard and yet the bleat about protecting the head continues from the AFL.

Red, do this thread a favour and ban those [censored] emoji illiteracies !!! Oh ..... also ban yourself for using one.

Mate you read my question - it's a question FFS ! Do you find death threats concealed in your Christmas cards ?

I wonder if current technology could provide some sort of DNA testing at the turnstiles?

Those figures represent crowds at a match. They say nothing about supporter break up. Is that so?

Blood hell, sheilas are taking over the world! Soon there'll no jobs at all for us blokes.

They most likely the laptop SirWYL, so probably encountered some difficulty doing that.

Something similar to your nickname.

I reckon the Thursday night fixture will [censored] it up to some extent. 85 -89k is my guess.

Indeed Wadda ! I imagine their collective halitosis would be vomit inducing.

Must be karma Bombay !

Older people, or people who are not tech savvy will always be disadvantaged in these [censored] situations. it's all about cost ,as usual, [censored] cost cutting !

I’ve just been informed that MCC is sold out !

True enough Fire - there were various awakenings !

To make my weekend complete. Please, please GWS, stick it deep up Carlton's [censored] ! ( and may Curnow not get a touch )

Magnificent win !!!! We toughed it out finals style! Fritta - he's back ! What an effort. Fairy tale stuff. Simply outstanding. Melky - sadly a question mark. Umpiring - inconsistent. That Grand Old Flag a coming . I can feel it in my nethers.

I'm certain all my fans will be relieved to hear that good old Uncle Bitter has returned safely from his journey of enlightenment in Siam. I am not unscathed , however, as I have brought with me an unwanted souvenir in the form of some sort of Bangkok bug. In fact, I have just had the manorial staff place my sick bed in front of the big screen in order to view the game. And big it is ! While the four points may not matter so much, it is an opportunity to enter to the big time with impetus and commence our finals campaign on a high. I am confident this is our year and this afternoon we shall demonstrate that fact. Apart from victory, my main point of interest will be the return of Mr. Fritta. His game time maybe somewhat foreshortened but he needs to get get some clean touches and ... hopefully ... snag one or two. He is crucial to us claiming the Cup! Dees by 17.

I cannot remember a season of footy that threw up so many unexpected (bizarre?) results as this one.

As a coach … maybe. You certainly wouldn’t employ him as club dietitian!

Thanks for the hard work Deelightful !

This is terrible and sad news. The club can be proud that it gave the little bloke some wonderful moments

Thanks for that Supreme D. A decent tall - he may well come into our considerations!

I don't follow junior footy Supreme D so can you tell me how good/promising the tall kid , Ollie Murphy, is?

I listened to Mitchell's post game presser - articulate bloke ,clever coach. He praised Max as a "generational ruckman" but , in what I considered a very interesting comment, he said that Rivers has been "underrated" across the competition.
