  1. ... get you to create a similar thread before the Adelaide game next week ?
  2. No, but it seemed to this untrained observer that we kicked more, were more direct and had less ring-a-rosy handballs than usual. Still played like millionaires in the first two quarters though ...
  3. How good was Gawn to Gus from the centre bounce in the third quarter. And all hail Clarry, king of the wormburners!
  4. Is he related to Chunk or Zac?
  5. Highlight was probably Gawnie kicking the 'Jayden Hunt memorial goal' after the three-quarter time siren. But isn't it good to have a 50+ point win and be able to say we should have won by double that ...
  6. No, but the media are doing it for us by proxy ...
  7. That's the thing about fake news, Earl --- it doesn't matter!
  8. Presumably the same guy that fed him all the jam donuts from the vans outside the 'G. Either that or he has been on the Phat Phil diet ...
  9. Hmmm... I guess if Foxtel end up dominating the rights, can we eliminate the stupid wait between the ball arriving back in the centre and then next bounce? It seems we have got used to waiting for the full 30 seconds after a goal to allow the screening of an ad for soap powder or something, with the result that we all seem to be used to watching the umpire wait around for 10 or more seconds before bouncing the ball. Can we at least get back to the rhythm of the game, rather than have these awkward waits? I was watching a schoolboy game not long ago, and there seemed something different about the centre bounces. I couldn't put my finger on it for a while, but it seems I found it novel that as soon as the ball was back in the hands of the umpire in the centre, the game was on again. Weird idea, I know ...
  10. Not even "the most boring team to win by 10 goals every week" award WJ? ?
  11. Agreed. We must have had about 10 goals against Adelaide that were as good as the GWS nominated one. If this is what it is like to be boring, then bore the hell out of me! ?
  12. No worries. I think it is fair to say it fell into disuse for a while and was then revived.
  13. In recent times, yes. But the record crowd for any home and away game ever is 99,256 who attended on QB back in 1958.
  14. Part of the inane babble that is Channel 7 commentary, especially BT. They will drool all over it when either touches the ball, in between comments about how Dunn and Howe were reinvented as defenders by Buckley ...
  15. He wouldn't have much to say, though ... ?
  16. I like it. Perhaps is a correction from last year, when we were arguably "too unsociable" (think Bugg, Vince, Lewis, Hogan all suspended). It is a fine line, but we seem to have got the balance better this year.
  17. "No, it is because the Crows have been utter crap today, Bruce, and the Dees have hit a real patch of form".
  18. Is it just me or has Viney bulked up a bit? Looks like a real beast as well as playing like one ...
  19. When was the last time a 100-point win let you down? And if a banana does let you down, use a rope next time ...
  20. I think I liked it better when we were talking about the footy ...
  21. Razor Ray would have called it a throw ... ?
  22. Black cats? Ladders? Third? Perhaps Blackadder the Third? Now that was seriously funny all season, and definitely won the premiership!
  23. Given today's events, it seems your lamb has been fried, roasted and stewed ??
  24. Can you and Nasher please upgrade the server the night before every game for the rest of the year? ?
  25. What is the exchange rate between dim sims and banana fritters, BB? ?
