Opinion 2018 Non-Crows Discussion Thread

[spenze]

Champagne Charlie Dixon is not the sharpest tool in the Alberton toolshed. With comments on radio like “I don’t even know what the system is, what the rules are, what you can and can’t do — no one does." and “I get that annoyed with it. It’s a contact sport, we play a contact sport — you’ve got to realise that and s*** happens.”
This from someone that drank wine in a hotel before a game and tried to mask it by charging it to the teams hotel bill or the same guy that did not understand the shot clock and lost a game at Geelong.

This isn't at all surprising that Charlie is unaware of the rules.

In last years elimination final he showed he was confused to where he had to kick the ball for it to be a goal and where to be a point. He probably walked off the field thinking he was a 9 goal hero and it wasn't his fault Port lost to a side that against all odds, fell into eighth place.

Also confuses icing sugar with other things apparently.

St. Kilda vs Carlton tonight will be a decent preview of how Carlton's midfield will hold up this year. They're very inside with Cripps, Kennedy, Murphy and Curnow as their prime mids with support from Kerridge and Wright etc.

Being a young brigade they could struggle, but against a middle of the road midfield like St. Kilda's, they could exceed expectation.

Cripps is the greatest player to draw breath.


Almost as good as Rory.

Gray misses round one and Aiden Johnson is most likely his replacement.

He's good though I hear, a ripping young prospect that will do big things.

You won't find any JLT games on FTA.

Well, Bacon9, that's probably a good thing, because they're crap. I'll try for radio or AFL website thing or something.

Cockburn in WA gets pronounced as Coburn.

It's Scottish, it's pronounced like that everywhere.

 

[beartoo]

Had a mate with that name and he insisted on the Coburn pronunciation. Wonder why?

Cos it's how you say it?

Question: why would you want to be artoo? Surely you'd be C3PO if you could?

Check your irony detector, it's malfunctioning.

 

[chazwazza]

Have you never heard of the Doug Anthony All Stars?

I’d stop while you’re ahead Jenny, if they don’t know who Richard Fidler is they surely won’t know who The Doug Anthony Allstars are and then you’ll have to explain who Doug Anthony was.
Kids!

Come on now. It was defintley worth seeing what the lay of the land was in the new environment. Not like you to buy into silly sterotypes (eg $10K will make the Power go broke).

Their members would’ve been pissed if they didn’t appeal it. Gray is their poster boy.

No such thing as silly stereotypes where Port is concerned. They're all truths, and any slurring of the PAPs should be encouraged, supported and aided and abetted.

Port racists just getting an early start
They're just warming up!

The idea is quite romantic, but even just going to a couple of AFLW matches there has shown how woefully inadequate the place would be for AFL matches

Hanging on a bit tight aren't we?

Triple J plays the latest in obscure alternative rock and punk rock music that all the cool kids listen to. When I'm sitting in my bedroom watching Star Wars and playing with my Simpsons figurines I always have JJJ on to rock out to

Man, the Saints look very pedestrian at the moment. Don't look to have a single guy who could just turn it up if you needed them too.
