It would have to be Clarko. The moment he loses, he brings out the excuses. I remember when the Dogs knocked his team out and he suggested they won because they were throwing the ball. Blamed the umpiring for not awarding frees. Now he is at it again.

The Scott brothers have to get a mention.

So who is it...discuss.

Clarko also famously was bitter sore loser when Hawks went out in straight sets two years ago when his dream of 4 in a row was over. He sooked it up over saying Collingwood 4 in a row in 1920's was a different finals system. He was right about one thing, it was a different system. The challenge system existed back then for minor premier. What he failed to grasp in his blind bitterness on night was Hawks just had their double chance and blew it. The challenge system in 1920's effectively gave double chance only to the minor premier. Meaning if they lost a final they got a second crack at flag challenging a team that finished lower that did not lose a final. So Hawks just used their double chance and blew it when they had another crack to stay alive in the finals series. Collingwood's team back then took their second chance and became the premiers.

Eddie is clearly number 2 for so many reasons. He is just much better hiding it behind spin of him pretending to care about other clubs too. But when his club is at anything but an advantage he will find some way to spin his real sook into something else.

Mate I can even tell you the guy who played Dooley played Apeman in What Becomes of the Broken Hearted. And that Sonny, Jake’s son and the main character in said sequel, makes no appearance and isn’t referred to in OWW.

Is this what the internet has come to?

Jack
Jake
Strange typo.

Yes there are remarkably few similarities between the two names that share 75 per cent of the same characters, especially using a predictive and corrective text device.

Also strange that anyone would think Jack rhymes with ‘snake’ as Jake refers to himself at one point while cooking breakfast during one of his rare good husband moments.

You can just type it correctly.
A poor tradesman blames his tools.

The same guy who went straight into the bulldogs rooms after the siren to shake Beveridges hand and congratulate him ?

Clarkos as prickly as any of them after losing but in that case of that game I think it’s a bad example

It's nice he shook his hand, but he did then spend much of the press conference complaining about the lack of holding the ball free kicks that were received.
 
Mmmnn ... as for Blokes sooking it up, I believe Timmy Watson is the worst. Has never taken a semblance of reponsibility for bring Bomber and the Hird into Essendon.

Eddiehead is runner up n the once traditional Pie role.

Snarko runs a clear third.

Remember him punching a hole in the wall because his team lost a quarter.

The 1904 Richmond VFA team. Refused to play and forfeited a Grand Final because they didn't like the umpiring from the semi-final.

Clearly umpiring was an issue back then. In 1902 Port Adelaide forfeited a Semi Final objecting to the appointed umpire. They were told that they didn't have the right to forfeit, and were summarily disqualified (which we can now call a reverse Neeld).
