That's a bit unfair on Johnny Olsen. He probably isn't the most corrupt it's just that he got caught.

Got caught out lying about a secret deal being done.

Perfect for the camrys.

Imagine the most corrupt politician in the state's history being your CEO and you still think you're the good guys.

I don't mind this guy and his passion to be honest.

I reckon this tweet from him is even better:



Wanting the crows to wear a heritage jumper to remember AAMI stadium.

Where can I sign up?

"... a playing jumpers with vertical pylons celebrating the jetties and pontoons of West Lakes ..."

There are no jetties at West Lakes, only pontoons which are horizontal not vertical. So the Camry Crows' hoops are celebrating the pontoons of West Lakes.

Maybe a Jetty Surf at West Lakes Mall has him confused.

That guy is a ******* gronk

Im about 80% sure thats a Port supporter's parody account. The vertical pylons at west lakes comment just about seals it.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

I dont get this stuff at all.

Reality is that if you step back from all this, and remove bias...

Last year Adelaide were one of the most embarrassingly bad spoon winners this century. Their pass mark for progress for 2021 was 5 wins. 6 wins gets a B+, anything over 6 would be a massive overperformance and turn around.

Currently we are only 7 rounds in and they have already won 3 games (albeit one with a fair bit of umpiring assistance). As much as I hate to say it they should be ecstatic with where they are right now, not just scoring 3 wins, but also being competitive and pushing decent clubs.

To be disappointed now given where they were at 12 months ago would be utterly delusional, yet it seems thats the message from many. Bizarre stuff.

It’s a bit waking up today knowing we just can’t cut it can we, we won’t win a flag under Ken.

Probably not. But it is not only Kens fault. We have senior players who are not leaders and who cannot stand up when it counts. These same guys have been letting us down for years. And I don’t care if Ken leaves either. Sick to death of the known outcomes before we play certain opposition.

Dougs is still the king of spoil

DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOG!!!!

 

[Eddie Dingle]

Dougs is still the king of spoil

Well considering he can’t mark it’s probably not that good a stat for the lad.

 

[JimmyBC]

Doogs is ok but Saints supporters rubbing one out over him probably highlights where they are at.

Certain you are right. Some of his tweets are pure genius

 

[philreich]

I doubt that certain members of said supporter base know how to spell CEO......

 

[finbarr]

One of the more frustrating things about Dougal was his propensity to spoil instead of mark, even in barely contested situations. It's one of the things i really like about Trent McKenzie. He really likes to take marks.

so what is this #foyp thing?

An overrated fringe player

Football on your phone, apparently.
