He has been writing that for a few years now, and admittedly I don't read it every week, but I can't actually remember a single occasion when he wrote a genuine sliding doors situation.

I don't read it but from what I've seen on here it certainly seems he doesn't understand sliding doors at all and just writes cause and effect scenarios.

Puopulo “we’ll have his back “(Impey)
Seriously mate we aren’t the Crows and Impey isn’t Lever.

 

[edgie]

the more i look and read about it the more i hope both Sloane and Lynch both stay at the Crows. 28 and 27 years old. will get a 4 year contract each, will both be on some decent $$$.
Sloane injury isnt a good one to get and lynch or jenkins (whos on coin and contracted up) keeping out that young KPF they have.
as much as i like the lol youve lost another lot of players you wanted, id rather see them tie up lots of cash and years on these two. also not get any more picks etc

Not to mention Sloane can't break a tag now he can't hide behind Dangerfield and Thompson.

Poppy said that? What a ****ing flog. The Norwood is strong in him.

Rabbitohs v Sharks game should be gold.

Go the Bunnies!

 

[TheFVK]

West Coast should be forced to play all 11 home games as Sunday Twilight because a) the time difference means Sunday twilight in Perth is actually a much more reasonable 2:40 start and b) they sell out their stadium in November the previous year so who gives a shit if a few thousand don't rock up.

The rest should be evenly distributed among the other 17 clubs.

I know you were being tongue in cheek (maybe) but this is classic VFL Gil thinking.. punish the loyal, regular supporter base (West Coast) who get 50k irrespective of timeslot, and reward the flaky fairweather supporter base (Collingwood) who'll only turn up if it's a game against another Victorian side on a Friday night.

Taking your core supporter base for granted is the exact kind of thinking which has brought a once strong footy province in Tassie to its knees.

LOL, it's the complete opposite to Lever on every level.

 

[chachi11]

Gold Coast with some players back a good chance of knocking off Geelong hopefully.

I have just seen the following question asked on the Crows’ non Crows thread: “How much profit are we making out of our eSports venture?”
The answer, from someone not on my extensive ignore list, went something like: “The key point is that we are not losing millions like Port are with their China fiasco.”
Don’t you just love having such a desperate, myopic, cross-eyed and essentially ignorant opponent.

lol at the analysis and understanding their board would have of the e-sports venture.

I'm envisioning Geoffa rolling off lotto numbers for Subaru to count up on her abacus, concluding

Victoria and Footy shows own indigenous superstar Jarman Impey

didn't know anything about him other than being some Port feral crash and runner, cross the border and he's Hawthorn great/Victorian pride

 

[Doctor Feel]

I can't imagine getting at all upset about Impey in any form. Who cares lol. Those shows were all Victorian to begin with so why are you even watching them.

 

[RonSon]

Did any gif McKay's fumble in the goalsquare on the weekend?

I believe this was made by someone over yonder.

Brillliant

 

[chiwigi]

I believe this was made by someone over yonder.

A prime example of the old boundary issue as well. He starts by 'pretending' to fumble because that's allowed.

Such a ludicrous state of affairs.

 

[OneGreatClub]

Good luck to the young fella, his head seems in a better space now, but you’ve got to admit, he’s being treated liike the second coming of Shaun Burgoyne.

They have created an eSports league in the schools.

My disgraceful children want to play.

It's still the turkeys voting for xmas.

Hey kids do you want to go play/watch footy or play computer games? - COMPUTER GAMES...erm ok.

It shows that making money is their aim, not the sport.

I would be fuming if it were offered to mine in schools.
Outdoors sports or fitness, yes, but potentially addicting kids to esports with all the negative effects is concerning.
Like pokies, but getting them at a younger age.
Ah well, all their future supporters will be too obese to get to footy games.

It will be.

There are many positive to gaming as well, but none of the positives translate to positives for footy is the point.

was testing out the Aussie TV FTW app and it landed on that show and segment, I don't care but it's just like the 5AA/SA pride effect, Jarman is a good kid but this pumping up kids as the next Jesus whatever way of the border is cringeworthy

 

[Portmagpies36]

I had a look at that account last night. Some great old stuff in it. I wonder if next year we get 1976 season?

1976 didn't happen.

I was about to say, esports is like pokies for underage players. Disgraceful.

We should join with all the other AFL clubs (well maybe not Essendon) and take out an injunction!

I knew it was going to be Yakety Sax before I even pressed play.

The only thing missing was that they weren't running around in underwear and suspenders.

I understand that McKay is their whipping boy but hes only ever been a depth player. They should be more concerned with their top line midfielder going missing for extended periods. You know, that guy they paid two first rounders for. Trolling your own players is pretty gross but I wouldn't expect any less from them.
