After all the crap that went on, you seriously wouldn't think they'd put him on another Doggies game, least of all first game back.

This is the equivalent of Essendon picking a drug user as a top up, every English cricket prediction of the 90's just before an Ashes series, or every Geelong has-been talking up Blicavs (sp?) vs Goldstein every time we were going to play them through '13-'14'-15 before they finally got the idea.

Facepalm....... double facepalm.......

After all of what went I fully expected him to get more Dogs games.

Hahaha.... fair point!

At 0:55, this is IDENTICAL to the Lindsay Thomas free kick that caused Derm and the footy world to go on their little high horse furore.

Greg Denham's done the complete about face, lauding North's 10-1 record and going on to say "and look at who they have to come back for the finals tilt", reeling off the names of our injured players before tipping us to beat the Cats.

Oh shit. We're ****ed.

Another little twist in the bizarre showing of disrespect North's form finds itself receiving this year...

I'm reading the 'Expert Tips' section of The Age and the vast majority of tipsters have backed North over Geelong, but I notice that 'The Village Idiot' has also tipped North. First time I've ever seen a majority backed team picked by the 'The Village Idiot'. Weird.

What's doubly weird is that I then check the tipsters at The Herald Sun and, you guessed it, same support for North, yet the 'Kiss Of Death' picks us too.

Creepy.

Pretty sure we are outsiders with betting agencies which is the basis for these 'kiss of death' selections.

Probably based on the bookmakers' odds. I always presumed it was only based on picking the opposite of the bulk of the tipsters too.

FWIW the blokes at Sportsbet have said they've taken 8x the money for a North win despite the odds.

Mate, I wouldn't take much notice of who Brereton picks.

Free kick Footscray!

Dermie cab be a total knob a fair bit of the time but his actual football analysis is usually far more astute thank most of his colleagues in the media.

They did the same thing v Sydney. I wonder if they've sent someone with the flu into Arden st again.

The list of suspects totals one.......

 

[JD-Roo]

Found it.......

So... Pannell is back and straight away umpiring a Dog's game again.

 

[Mr Reliable]

Excellent editing there. You've found a single high tackle incident with Toby McDuck and changed the opponents' guernseys to about 10 different teams.

 

[hilly]

Pannell hasn't missed a game, this is his first Dogs fixture for awhile and I expect he'll give Port a few early frees to help himself.

 

[Kimbo]

Stunning. Put this up against LT and this guys wins hands down.

This shit has to stop, wtf is going on????

I assume we will be awarded the '94 & '98 flags tomorrow morning.

Mr Laughton, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Yep, McLean puts the ball in his left hand and swings his right arm up to propel the tacklers arm in to his neck.. a tackle on his arm becomes a tackle around his neck.

 

[longyroos]

Their first 11 weeks:

Etihad, Etihad, Etihad, Etihad, Etihad, Etihad, Etihad, MCG, Spotless, MCG, Etihad.

It's actually unbelievable.

They've left the CBD once.

Where's his 'exit point'?

It's crazy how this bloke and others like him fly under the radar and don't get any of the vitriol that LT gets.
