GAME DAY - 2019 Fed election Goals and Clangers thread ALP 7.10.52 LNP 5.3.33 FT

[Pessimistic]

How has this not been counted as a clanger yet ?

review downgraded to rushed behind

 

[Pessimistic]

bear in mind the vic libs co opted ex family first candidates to some unwinnable seats in the state election

Seems no video is emerging of the ni hao incident. That could have been a 100 metre penalty with video, but without it's not so much of anything.

It's not something that anyone will remember come election day, but it's a clanger in the very traditional sense... although given the batshit crazy clangers we get these days, such as Dutton yesterday, this is very run of the mill.

And nothing she said was anti-semitic, she simply expressed a view about Israel politics and how it affects the Palestinians

Precisely! It's an illustration of the power and influence of the Zionist lobby. Had a candidate been a critic of the Palestinians it would have gone through uncommented upon.

Bill, you're as weak as piss.

Excellent tweet and linked story by Josh Bornstein.

Mmm. So probably the reason I hadn't seen the footage previously is because it's kinda 'meh' when you see it, lacks any real impact. I was imagining him walking up to some person in the street with a big NI HAO! only to be rebuffed, 'I'm KOREAN!'. But it's actually quite tame. Still a clanger in that he made a straight forward unforced error under no pressure, but nothing game changing.

Coalition looking like 2018 Carlton so far.

Dutton doubling down on being an ableist bully, Morrison bloviating about Labor racism and then having his own racist gaffe, 3 Liberal candidates withdrawing for likely being in violation of the constitution and finally this:

 

[nobbyiscool]

In the pantheon of election gaffes, this one is pretty tame - at best, a rushed behind.

Still, extra lols because of the person who made the gaffe. How's those $4 interns working out Tone?

5000 behinds. Game over Tony

(But really, it’s tony Abbott, who’s not the suppository of all knowledge)

Freudian slip, no doubt.

The other tony. Blair, who once said ‘weapons of mass distraction’

I was watching an IT YouTube the other day, and a guy said ‘single glass of pain’

Post them here. I don't think theres been one yet (11am Thu 11th)

Kicking off with some own goals and rushed behinds

Dutton opponent disibility affair -rushed behind

Scomo $328 billion accusation from treasury, or was it. -own goal

ALP candidate resigns over semitism ism. -own goal

Three LNP candidates with sect 44 issue -rushed behind

Rules being made up as we go along
(Clangers is a bit vague. Think of own goals as a 50 against to the goal square)
(Reserving the right not to be totally on time posting scores)
(limited to campaign stuff only - go elsewhere for policy - that would require analysis)

I'm confused on 2 fronts...

1) With the way you are scoring, do you want a high score a low score? So with the ALP currently leading, am I right in thinking that it's the LNP who've made more gaffes?

2) How is Parke a goal, but Dutton just a behind? Dutton's was far worse - his will be talked about and remembered until election day. No one will remember Parke by next weekend.

You could reasonably categorise most of the LNP's behinds as own goals.

I have known bias, I’m probably over compensating

A well known twitter user was suspended this week after posting something about that.
Let's see how much traction it's given by the networks

 

[Badesumofu]

Another good Tony Abbott Clanger:


The guy in the second photo is Peirs Ackerman, lol.

 

[NSWCROW]

^^ Billy Bunter !!!!

 

[Gough]

Is wheeling John Howard out seen as a goal or a clanger these days?

 

[GWBogan]

Out of bounds, on the full.

 

[NSWCROW]

^^ Ah Cleetus , you've done it again

 

[Reynolds Number]

Don't see why Melissa Parke quit.

She should had been a Senate candidate, not a candidate for a seat full of high wealth business people that will never come close to being in ALP hands

 

[Pessimistic]

Getting this far and only a couple of points down is good for the coalition.

 

[Admiral Byng]

I don't get the scoring system

 

[Pessimistic]

I don't get the scoring system

Said I this afternoon at the marvel

Still in play but no scores or stumbles. "Keepings off"
