Jaded No More

100%. I did 12 years in fashion and can confirm it is a toxic horrible environment full of narcissists and a-holes! Has made every other brand I’ve managed a walk in the park since. Nothing makes you grow thick skin like that industry!

Take it you never worked at the Just Group. I did 7 years there and it nearly destroyed me mentally and emotionally. Looking back I wish I wasn’t so naive and young. Should have sued their [censored] for workplace bullying.

Fair effort! I know a few people who work and worked at Cotton On. All absolute vile trash humans.

Hahaha I forgot about him because he’s no good

Oh I know, trust me, there is a reason I loath that club.

I can’t remember a good player leaving Geelong. They know how to hold onto their players. Even Gazza came back!

Absolute star and humble and fair.

WHY WON’T GEELONG DIE?

Ummm what? The pre grand final bye had nothing to do with May’s hamstring. It was in place long before we even made the grand final. It was there to enable the game to be played in WA according to their strict quarantine Covid rules. As for the Dogs, they didn’t finish top 4 so didn’t get to pick where they wanted to play their “home” finals. They made the grand final the long way, by needing to play an away prelim against a side that finished above them. I am really not sure how any of that was the AFL helping us. It would have been the same if Geelong, Port or Brisbane made the grand final instead.

I’m excited for Cripps to get off at the tribunal for knocking someone else out on the eve of a grand final.

It did for Collingwood, because the AFL made sure of it. This is a rinse and repeat but with a different brand of sour milk.

Let’s just say the umpires don’t see that, fine. What the actual [censored] was that free right in front of goal for dissent? Since when do you get another free right in front of goal? Get absolutely [censored]

@Axis of Bob what did you think about the umpire’s influence on the Carlton Freo game?

What the AFL wants the AFL gets

Plus the AFL are desperate for them to win the flag. They are in prime position to win it. They still have Walsh to come back too. Definitely a big factor in the flag race for mine too.

The photo of Clarry standing over a knocked out Gus in last year’s final, is all you need to show Dermie and the rest of the brain dead morons in the media

That’s because you can do simple maths. You are overestimating Pies fans here.

Paying $800,000 for Ben McKay

Exactly this. He goes in and gets suspended and he’s a thug. Just [censored] off media! Clarry has overcome so much to play and is now playing with a busted hand. The only weak people around are these commentators.

And we beat them without May

Nothing like beating West Coast, Richmond and Essendon. And then, wait, what’s that? Losing to an actual contender at home.

We have a 7 day break and then a bye. Nobody is getting rested unless they can’t physically get out of bed. Brisbane is still, despite their early form, a formidable opponent. We need all our best players out on the field. Sadly I think Kosi will be a forced out as I can’t see him getting off if we appeal.

Salem moves back to midfield and Bowey slots back into the defense.

I don’t disagree, but draft picks are not the only way to rise up a ladder. They have good kids, but they don’t have leadership or bigger bodies. We went and got Vince and Lewis etc and those guys really helped to protect the younger players. We also had the likes of Jones. Whatever picks they get they should be forced to trade for ready made mature bodies. They lost McKay who granted is a potato, and Goldstein, who is one day away from death, but those guys were big mature bodies. They need more of that, and some leadership.
