That is right from where I sit : GWS have learned what to do to clear from tackles and throw-ups and our failure to counter that is giving them the springboard It'll be fascinating to see if we are capable of changing it after half time Should have put my Super fund on GWS when they were paying 6.00
-
Definitely going for goal!
-
All you can say is we should win but it doesn't look like it's going to be easy Too many easy approaches to goal by GWS

A real Howeler

That's a really really interesting question, all the more so in light of the MFC statement ( which the ABC were aware of since they quoted it at the end of the segment) that all supplements were administered and overseen by the club doctor. Arguably the ABC is aware that none of the substances under discussion are banned and therefore they are not alleging illegal activity. I would say a close-to-inexcusable breach of privacy by the 7.30 Report even if as would seem likely the source of the SMS messages is Dank himself

Oh my goodness They CAN play football!!

It's beyond embarrassing : it's definitely at if not beyond terrifying Sack the coach - but how would that help? What on earth can be done?
-
I certainly don't believe in banning the bugler. I simply feel he should play ONLY after we have won the game Come to think of it ............. there could be something here for all parties to this issue
-
That's actually really funny Just we all lost our sense of humour with the match
-
WE SHOULD GET OUR MONEY BACK !!! The $500,000 I mean We weren't tanking
-
Can't wait tip we play the Hawks and have a chance to teach them a few tricks
-
That's exactly what staggered me : the luxury of extra time and wide options that Port enjoyed the whole day and they clearly were doing as they pleased You really have to say that Mark Neeld needs to demonstrate leadership to turn this around
-
Well We can only get better from here
-
Isn't that the real worry?And how can Port Adelaide have so much time and be so relaxed? O me miserum
-
That familiar pain is back
-
Mitch Clark - may it be so ! in similar vein, re possible game-changers, where is Max Gawn positioned?
-
This to me is fascinating : ok ; some line has been "drawn in the sand " a benchmark is established. If a person was naive and believed in truth on planet Earth - well, there would be new stories to sing about around the campfire in due course, wouldn't there?

Bombers scandal: charged, <redacted> and <infracted>

My gut feeling is that Golden Boy's aura will ward off any evil spirits ( but I was terribly terribly disappointed to see him and others not wearing the correct regalia at the Public Confession of We Are Shocked) (surely not to prevent such a picture being re-presented in future articles about " Where We Have Come From") Pure as driven snow in my opinion and a tragic example of collateral damage -
Apologies if this has been covered ( been away) Speaking of "bringing the game into disrepute" - what about the AFL invesigators who leaked info to a journalist : did they not bring the game into disrepute and is this action not what created the furore that caused the disrepute?
-
Still I find it a struggle to reconcile the daily and hourly agonising dribble of " new revelations" of what was being " uncovered" on a minute-by-minute basis by the Inquisatorial Team about 5 weeks ago : -- AND NOW NOTHING !!!! WHY oh why have these sources dried up? Is it because the Chief Sheriff came back to Dodge City? Somebody PLEASE EXPLAIN
-
Either charge us or drop the investigation

Just a thought along the social morality direction One of the human actions that has always horrified me is that of dropping rocks off bridges over cars passing underneath on a freeway. Probably nothing will come of it but (I suspect) the excitement of it all is that if your coordination or aim is just so, the result could be extreme (and of course if you're "underage" your defence lawyer will be able to plead all kinds of diminishing and imaginary arguments but that's another story : I so wish I had been born to be a defence lawyer) Compared to the scenario above ( or putting rocks on railway tracks is another) I feel you have to say that these radio people have not deliberately set out to play Russian roulette with the lives of the hospital staff they contacted and their degree of culpability needs to be assessed with a careful and just mind. If anything these events lend more credibility to the Leveson inquiry recommendations which the current British Prime Minister has largely chosen to ignore ( no doubt for very good reasons such as trying to stay on the right side of Billionair Murdoch) Maybe the real fault is that in our own country we do not have a legislative framework that spells out to junior media people that this type of media intrusion is proscribed and will result in prosecution if enacted. (don't expect too many journalists to be suggesting this interpretation of recent history - PLEASE don't mention the c*****ship word)

unfortunately you are totally 100% right I didn't see it coming : I nearly fell off my chair laughing when I heard about it ; I jokingly sent my son-in-law in Swansea an apology on behalf of all Antipodeans and probably the first inkling I had that all was not well was his reply : "My sympathies, however lie with the gullible nurse who not only has to undergo the world wide humiliation of falling for a prank that even the pranksters were surprised was successful, but also for most likely losing her job. Not a good day "
