Analysis 2017 Non-Crows Discussion Thread - Part V for Vendetta

Sure it is.

Nietzsche says that the third and final stage of human growth is that of the child (as opposed to the camel - taking on everything you are told by teachers/parents/friends - and the lion - rejecting the things that you feel no longer apply to you). It's a stage where life is filled with possibilities and what could be, rather than what is.

If we had more Stage 5 leaders in this state rather than Stage 1 complainers, things would be a lot different.

And yet both political leaders are Port supporters and the former treasurer was a Port supporter. Go figure!

Jackson was a great coach. That doesn't make him a good GM. It's the same with Michael Jordan.



Marcus Aurelius says that we should 'Focus on what is being said. Enter with your mind into what is being done and into the mind of the person doing it.'

The only motivation I can see for you posting like this and lamely trying to insult me is either a) you place a low value on your self worth and you're desperately trying to gain adulation from people who have 'liked' your post, or b) (and this is what my money is on) your life sucks so much that you are lashing out at an anonymous internet poster in an effort to make yourself feel better.

Either way, you've made me smile knowing just how small a person you are

Or he just thinks you talk out of your ring and is letting you know.

If picking the name of a Roman god as your username raises suspicions of an inflated ego, quoting 19th century German philosophers on a football forum blows all doubt out of the water.

He should have picked 'Narcissus' instead.

Picks the name of a Roman god, but puts a very young Asian girl as his avatar. I suspect somethings not quite right with ol Janus.

We fill that stadium on a regular basis
Our average crowd (minus Showdowns - after all we go to yours / you don't go to ours so
it's only including our supporters anyway )
outstrips yours by about 10,000

You're already flogging off free tickets

How are you making any money doing this ?

But according to KT after the Grand Final and Port's free agency spree of spud collections demand for memberships has gone through the roof!!!!

Isn't Cathay Pacific their airline sponsor? An airline in a whole lot of trouble financially.

70's hey? Good for you, I'm sure nothing has changed in terms of the fitness requirements for field umpires these days. I bet you could have a durry at the breaks just like the players did. What you did back then is no more meaningful than Grenville Dietrich describing his dietary requirements to perform at his peak.

Oh yeah, sure, like when we only had ONE umpire instead of 3 and had to bounce the ball ALL the time, not just after goals and starting quarters. The grounds were also much worse. Like I said I'm 58 and I can still bounce the ball properly, even though I'm old and fat. But yeah, sure, bad mouth everything from the 70's

Michael and Scottie, Shaq and Kobe made him a great coach.

Chad, Travis and Charlie make Ken a crap coach.

 

[DD#23]

No way, if the skill of bouncing the ball gets in the way of a good decision maker having a career, then it's just not worth it. Get rid of it, it's not about the umpires executing a skill, that's the job of the players. They just need to be fit and make good decisions. And it's not that easy to do well consistently without a lot of practice.

we're never going to have good decision makers with 50 shades of grey written into the rulebook.

that's why the umpiring standard is so abysmal, has nothing to do with them wasting too much time practicing the bounce ffs.

Make it stop !

Think it's time to go back to crows only supporters in here, finding myself skipping half the posts in here for the past few days

I'm at the Moseley and sitting next to Charlie Dixon, can I say anything?

Exhibit C
You fail to recognize , unlike you and your silent J comrade, I have no need to build MY club up anywhere.

My posts re PAFC are purely there to point out your clubs failures - of which there are too numerous to mention here. Another failure you exhibit is that you are unable recognize outright ridicule !

I have probably posted maybe 20 posts in the last year on the Main board so that's just a blatant lie.

Another tactic to try and divert from you and your clubs need for relevance.

I am perfectly happy where we sit in the scheme of things and I certainly seek no validation - as you do here- for anything my club does - as you do here .

So just in case someone missed it

INFERIORITY COMPLEX !!!!

This is precisely what my post is doing in regards to your club. No validation needed here.

B&F’s are award ceremonies, no?

you know your position that Best & fairests are midfielders awards might be the stupidest thing anyone has said all year? Including by Mr Heatmaps

That’s why I wanted to check

Who are you and why are you here?

How many midfielders won their BnF this year? I’ll give u a hint, the only club whose BnF wasn’t won by a midfielder is our favourite club (yes that’s sarcasm).

Joe Daniher likes this

If you look here, you’ll see plenty of non-midfielders very high up

Next you shoot your mouth off making silent J level idiotic comments, at least be smart enough to pull out of the tailspin before it get out of hand

 

[Sanders]

Bloody hell, I put that idiot on ignore thinking that it would remove her posts and the responses. I'd been skimming through her posts and responses to them but thought ignore was an easier way. Seems I still see the responses, but no reference to ignored content, so I'm reading responses now. It's a step backward. Can people please not respond to that poster, it just clutters up this thread with meaningless drivel. Well, more meaningless than normal.

Thanks for the reminder, might be time to put one of own special bunnies on ignore

No it's not !
Its doing precisely what led to my first comment.
And your need to lie about my posting on the main board reinforces that even more!
You're posting here that your club's supporter base is better than AFC's when clearly it isn't. It's classic Koolade and massive inferiority complex behaviour.
Using feel good statements like "real" supporters is just motherhood garbage statements - something all you port flogs do these days.

Look at your stupid Janus' posts - despite not beating a top 8 side, despite no money from China, despite no sponsor etc etc somehow it feels the need to come here and expound drivelling detritus to build your club as as something more than bland irrelevance. Not only inferiority complex but a huge self esteem issue in that one!

You haven't had a crack at AFC without the ever present over the top comparison to Port - as inaccurate and as unsubstantiated as your statement is.
You're not even making sense.

And that, my teal adversary,is classic inferiority complex type behaviours.

Nah

Just about due for another drunken incident from the power!

[edge of reason]

PAP and MD are both terrible teams, similar colours, similar inspirational messages, similar abilities.

I'm a Dolphins fan (have been since 1977) - the number of our supporters still living off the 1972 undefeated season is astounding.

I would say though that we don't drink as much Kool Aid as our PAP friends, but then again I may be saying that because of all the Kool Aid I drink
