As a teacher with over 20 years experience, mainly in western NSW, not once have I ever heard a white student called an ape. I have heard it twice - once aimed at an Aboriginal student and once at a student from an African background. The whole she-didn't-know-what-she-was saying argument is...
Explain - why? Why now boo Jetta more? Boo him when launching a charity? Even as a Swans supporter, I understand that people will boo him but these comments are just ridiculous. Rational and empathetic, hey? Take off the 'em-' and you're closer to the mark. Idiot.
As someone who has battled with depression for 25 years, I wish the best for Mitch Clark. For people who have no experience of mental illness, it is really difficult to understand what is going on in a person's head, and that is no criticism of those people - even people with depression don't...
Well done for a classy response by Geelong and all involved with the club over the cancellation of this week's game. After seeing Chris Scott's compassion and understanding for Mitch Clark, it's no surprise at all that the club has reacted in such a admirable manner. Best of luck to the Cats for...
Worst
1. Freo - no argument.
2. West Coast Eagles - too contrived.
3. Hawthorn - no reason except I just hate hearing it on grand final day.
Best
1. Richmond
2. St Kilda
3. Swans
I like Sam Mitchell as a player but I reckon it's time he got his due as sneaky dirty player. He rarely does anything overtly but does the little knees in tackles, niggles to get free kicks, mouths off and so on. Is he the King of the Sneaky Dirty clan?
The seven dwarves are trapped in the mine when by a rock fall. Snow White rushes to the blockage to see if she can any sign of life. As she listens, she can hear a faint voice singing,"Good old Collingwood forever....."
"Thank God," she says. "Dopey's alive."
I haven't read right though this thread but surely someone has mentioned Gerard Healy's monumental slip of the tongue, calling the Gold Coast Suns the Gold Cu*ts. Always loved Sandy Roberts calling Leanne Dick, Miss Australia, Leanne utensil instead - especially the nervous laughter as he tried to...
Agree completely. Vossy will end up like Laidley, Harvey, McCartney etc and be a career assistant coach, someone who couldn't quite cut the mustard ats a head coach. Nothing personal, just that some have it and some don't.
Big fuss over nothing. Apparently, Lewis Jetta was going to do the same thing if he kicked a goal but didn't get the chance. What odds it wouldn't have been a big deal if he had've done it? The other point is that I constantly read and hear people saying that Goodes is too precious and so on. If...
Fair point. I suppose the only thing I was thinking of was DC calling him out at the after-fight octagon interview. Will certainly be interesting in the meantime. Would like to see DC v Gustaffson if he can get back to the sme form he had against Bones.
Hi all, I'm from a RL background in northern NSW and started going out with my now-wife, who's from the Mallee in Victoria, in 1991. I realised that to have a decent sport discussion with her dad I would need to learn more about the AFL. I was a PE teacher and chose the Swans just because they...
If the 2 teams are from the same state, give 'em a choice - either play at home or play at the MCG as a neutral venue. There's every chance they would want to play at the G anyway due t the tradition and atmosphere. Ideally, keep the G as much as possible.
Bones to smash Cormier when he comes back. No matter what people think of him and what dodgy crap he's done, he's still the best around.
Belfort got what he deserved - go Weidman!
Caro, Hutchy and Barrett - all of them are addicted to the big story, whether true or not. If nothing's happening, why not make it up? They're the sort of journos who make a prediction that a coach is leaving or being sacked, wait 10 years till it happens and then claim some sort of clairvoyant...
Just a bit of harmless fun - certainly not rocket science. Gazey is better than Fleming - he was more interested in the sound of his own voice - and Turn It Up can be good (but also ordinary). The show's not meant to be anything but a it of fluff anyway so it doesn't need to be taken seriously...
He's a wannabe tryhard from the Craig Hutchison and Caro Wilson school of crap. He tries to break stories that are just either non-events or just bulls**t rumours and obviously thinks it makes him important. He plays favourites and has his regular whipping boys. A poor excuse for a journo.
Just tradition and old heads thinking women don't know enough because they haven't played the game at a high level. Hasn't stopped Gerard Whately (who I like) and Damian Barrett (who I can't stand). If you watch any of the US pro sports, there are women everywhere and they are highly respected...
