I'm looking forward to our banner when we play them next
"Let's go beat the Saints
And put them off their tucker
By the way - Jimmy Webster
You're still a ****sucker"
It just seems to me that some people really cannot handle the idea of people who they perceive as being lesser than them getting a helping hand of any kind.
As someone who has been touched by watching a family member go through (and lose) a cancer battle, Cunners showing up to the 2022 pre-season team photo - mid chemo, hairless and gaunt - was one of the single bravest and most inspirational things I have ever in my life.
That it was one of the...
Funnily enough I was typing the below when you posted that - my mind went there as well:
I'll remember him like how I remember Matty Larkin.
Not so much as a footballer - Larkin was better - but the way both of them led the club in trying times and never, ever once shirked an issue.
Thanks...
He played pretty deep. The majority of disposals would have been inside 50.
He teamed up really well with Spicer (who won the game for us in the last IMO - first time I have really thought "there's a genuine footballer there") who played more of a high half forward role, even pushing back to...
After the bye sounds most sensible - first game after is July 1.
Gives Clarko some time to decompress now that he's been exonerated, get his head right and get back into it raring to go.
Any lawyer advising Clarko to sue for defamation would be giving the worst legal advice since Julius Caesar's lawyers told him the Senate "had his back".
We'll be fine. It took us 50 years to win a flag, and we had many years of tough times before that. Every buit as tough as now.
In your lifetime the AFL nearly snuffed the club out of existence. We got through that.
We'll get through this. We're the toughest club going around.
What we need right now is for the boys to get around Clarko and deliver a backs to the wall performance like 21 years ago in 2002 when those boys got around Anthony Stevens and delivered a win in Archer's 200th over in Port Adelaide.
If ever there was a time to put the Shinboner Spirit on full...
Burn the tape.
Two observations:
1. Our worst game so far coincided with having the least number of younger/less experienced players on the park. The lesson seems to be that the kids are ok.
2. The one positive for me was I got upset watching that. At least it's nice to feel something...
Fair enough.
It was noticeable that Bulldogs fans booed JHF last night.
This isn't a North thing. There's a right way and a wrong way to leave a club, and while the line between the two can get blurry, literally the entire football following public think JHF went about it the wrong way. And...
That was one of the more impressive VFL games I've watched in a while.
We don't have much in the way of forward targets, and our midfield is pretty small and light, but what made the win possible is excellent structure in defence. Outside of a couple of centre breaks, Southport never found a...
Howe kicked it OOB on the 50 at Freo's end right as the siren went.
For the first time all night, the Freo crowd (who up to that point had displayed impeccable decorum twoards the umpires and a superb level of knowledge of the rules) lost their collective brain because the umpire judged that...
Fantastic win!
We had 4 kids who had played a total of 12 games between them…in the West…against a team that has been smashing us.
hawthorn next week - we could be 3-0!
Yeah, "there/their", "you're/your", "bought/brought" and "versus/verse" are bugbears of mine. Unsurprisingly they all tend to come attached to something stupid.
But the thing that got me about Basti's response is the "Everyone has there (sic) own opinion" line. That's such a cop out. It's...
Reading you excellent post Tas (which I completely agree with), I made me think about just many decisions need to be made every day by athletes if they want to become elite. "eliteness" is built off of doing the small stuff the right way, and deciding to do the small stuff each and every time...
