  1. Reckon you're spot on. They hit the jackpot in a couple draft years picking up Hodge, Lewis, Franklin, Roughy and Rioli. Poached Burgoyne and Gibson and as you said held their position on top with Geelong cherry picking other lists as the rest of the comp squabbled over the draft picks that GCS and GWS didn't want. And as you say their arrogance believing their "Culture" will turn average players from other clubs into superstars has failed. Remember they also took Fitzy. Saw today that Clarkeson still doesn't believe the answer is going back to the draft. I hope that dooms them to a decade or two in the doldrums.
  2. You mentioned some others. Some good stuff And try this one on. Should really get you pontificating with one of your sermons.
  3. Glad you enjoyed it. Here's another just for you.
  4. Did I say I didn't want racism to end? Be great in a perfect world if it wasn't a thing. But guess what ..... The world isn't perfect and never will be. Go right ahead. Live in ya little echo chamber.
  5. And we'll never get there. Racism is rife the world over. Only the naive think they'll end racism by pontificating on social media.
  6. Agree. Just have a look at the recent BLM movement. Much of that was pure open hatred toward whites that was condoned.
  7. If I was a gambler I woulda bet they'd kick 2.
  8. Must admit .... I am bored. So bored I'm arguing with triggered snowflakes on the internet. Hate sunday arvo games. Anyway, good news is Essendon got done by a point.
  9. So what were you suggesting he needed to clear his head and be with his family from in a threat titled "Racist comment targeting Nev" ? And you can wish like a child all you like. Still won't make it go away.
  10. Out of touch with the leftist ideals I know.
  11. I get all that. But for eg ..... Should a player miss a game because there has been a death in the family instead of playing on with a black arm band. I'm sure they might not be totally focussed. And as my original post stated that Hardtack also didn't like. You will never ever totally stamp out racism ...... Some might wanna live in fairyland and believe if they call out every percieved slight on the internet that they can.
  12. How am I twisting your words? Did you or did you not suggest Nev might be missing because someone posted an emoji?
  13. Surprise, surprise .... The virtue signaller resorting to name calling. I'll have you know I'm so offended.
  14. No I don't .... Thats the point. Hardtack seems to think so though.
  15. You're the one with your panties in a bunch cause my opinion is different to yours. You don't lke it .... Scroll on.
  16. Well, amazes me that an emoji gets posted and people like yourself think the sky's fallling. And if the coaches didn't play me cause some fool posted an emoji on my twitter page I'd be having something to say to them too. But I also highly doubt that is why he's not getting a game. His form wasn't real flash last year and hasn't improved. What else ya got?
  17. Highly doubt it Hardtack. If Nevs not playing because of that he really should "Pack it in."
  18. Essendon are notoriously hard to deal with. They'd want Petracca.
  19. We own the term fragile. Havng said that even when Geeloong were winning flags I considered them fragile to an extent. They'd blow most sides off the park in the 1st qr and then cruise to victory. If a side could stay with them they often got the jitters late game.
  20. And 1 for the "Woke". And not so woke.
  21. I think many would find it racist that you think a pommy white boy band took black music back to America.
  22. Read my post slower and see if you can get it. And for what it's worth. Posting a monkey emoji and rape are quite different things.
  23. You really need it spelled out to you?
  24. Lets not forget outlawing the media with their picking and choosing what they highlight.
  25. You will never ever totally stamp out racism. Are we gonna spend the rest of our lives highlighting the 1 moron who has a crack? And if we were true to ourselves racism comes in all colours, not just whites. Best just get over it and move on.
