Demonsterative

I don't ham it up is what I meant, I thought that was obvious. I also don't swear in front of her (In other words ham it up). I thinks that's a fairly generic term that I hope you understand. Your not attacking me coz I outed myself in this thread? Coz that would be wrong and I would take HL like offence to that.....

In fact, my sexuality has been on the end of some very inappropriate jokes in the workplace, and I have used inappropriate comments about heterosexuality. It's all part of the fun at laughing at and with myself and others. No one is getting hurt. No one is fearful, nor are they angry. I work with a Muslim lady, who has very strong homophobic views. We don't talk about them but we know they are there. We get along really well and through just being me, she is learning a lot about the gay community. She now realises that gay men are normal and harmless. On the flip side, I don't flaunt any overt gay behaviour or discussion her way. I respect her faith and culture to much to do that. If I went down the HL pathway of defending gay rights, I would just reinforce any fixed and uneducated views my Muslim colleague has or had. The best way to break down social stigmas is via engaging people. Not putting them off side.

Time to get off your Soap Box Dr! Not sure why HL seems to think that the gay community needs his assistance? Maybe he is pink suede himself. As a out and very proud gay man I'm offended by HL's behaviour. Lighten up FFS. Gone are the days that the Gay Community need to fight every battle to get acceptance in mainstream society. We have moved past that school boy banter and have moved onto more pressing issues such as rights for Civil Union, rights to parenthood etc etc. Me and my community use this kind of humour on a daily basis. Why? Coz it's funny.

The fall out from the Buddy deal is yet to happen at the Swans. Buddy is on less money this year and his payments go up from next season. With losing the COLA in coming years the Swans will have to lose more than Mitchell. Malceski is one who is a already forced out and I would think Mitchell and Reid are others that are surplus to the Swans needs. Having said that, Goodes is one who will free up player payments. IMO Roos is well aware of the situation and is ready to pounce. We may not get who I hope (Reid and Mitchell), but I see Roos and co circling like vultures. I would think Roos will go after Swans players as they come from an excellent culture and understand the defensive of the game that he wants. I would also think that the Swans will be happy to bargain with Roos. His standing in The game is much higher in Syndey.

Look again HH? :-)

In honour of Hogan Heroes! Chat away.

Seriously, Henrietta is one player that could deter me from re signing my membership! I'd rather win 4 games. The guy is a ...........

The guy is a sook. So an off the mark comment about two players and Mardi Gras occurred. Stiff bickies! I'm not offended, why should henrietta (yes a mistake of spelling. Deliberate!)?

I'd prefer Freddy Clutterbuck. Better name!

Well then. Goodwin looks like a good culture setter then. I'm gonna start the "Bring back Neeld" campaign if this is true!

Go get him Dees. He fits the age range, position and talent needed at this club. Add Sam Ried and Malceski, we are better team going forward.

He is out of contract next year. Roos said earlier this year that clubs will start to trade players who refuse to sign and lose them to FA. Not sure if Danger is a restricted free agent next year. Anyone else know?

I remember hearing a story that Sanderson changed Dangers role late this year as his body was giving in. I think it was on SEN. If this the case I hope the club do their due diligence and ensure Danger is fit enough to continue his super star status.

Don't forget to thank Taylor and Viney too. Job extremely well done!

According to BF, Danger's management are entertaining the idea. It's not across the line though. Just discussions at this stage.

Pick 2. Sorry not second pick.

Someone over at Big Footy says that the club is mtg with Danger next week and have put big dollars on the table. The club is lkg to trade it's 2 nd pick for him This poster said he jus finished a 9 month contract in WA either at WC or Freeo and has inside info. Take it as you will....

Bullshite and just plain wrong. Deluded maybe.

Yes Jones is playing in the second worst team in 2014, and worst in recent history. Does that make his performance worse? IMO it makes his performance even better. Jones des not rely on players around him to shine. He does it by himself. Imagine how good he would be if he had a midfield like the hawks supporting his output.

It's part of the game Maggot, but in reality two guys just lost their job. There is no need to stuck the boots in (like some have on here).They were not up to playing AFL, but it was the clubs decision to hire them.

Most under rated player in the game

Robbo also thinks Mark Thompson and Hird should co coach Essendon next year. I don't take him seriously. The club would not apply if they thought it a priority pick was not going to be on offer.

Jetta was good under the barrage he encountered.

He has held off contract talks. Give him good money, it's a possibility.
