It takes a special talent, not just in footballing ability, but in one's ability to tread the fine line between douchebaggery and whimsy, hubris and cheeky confidence, arrogance (the FIGJAM kind) and mere arrogance commensurate with one's ability.

Exhibit A:



Feel free to add your own examples of your favourite PFD understated arrogance.











Just a bit of fun folks, try not to get fired up about it. ;)

I reckon Bob Murphy will class this kind of behaviour as "rascally".

"Overtly rascally" even. :D

We lost Stevie J who is number 1 in this domain good to have someone try to take his mantle. Although a lot of it is stuff the opposition supporters hate. Love it on your own team though.
 
I thought we tried to do what the freo's have been doing to us since 2012 and that was get into your face.

Its a good observation but I think also for Paddy as it was for Stevie and is still for Mackie; they kind of need this type of behaviour stuff to get up about. They like nothing better than when its high stakes. They would all love that Fyfe got the shits.

On Paddy I sometimes cringe at the pressure he places on himself with media etc but it seems to work for him and he does it well.

Genuinely had a laugh out loud moment with Fyfe pushing him away. The pat on Sandi's bum was funny too

Didnt SJ do a similar thing at one point?

Maybe not...

Did we end up winning the next centre clearance? Would've been hilarious if we did, and it was Paddy sharking Sandiland's tap too.

I don't think he's arrogant at all. Arrogance is thinking your better than everyone else, and I don't think Paddy is like that. Paddy is just so good at what he does he has confidence, which idiots and lessor lights always think is arrogance. People intimidated by confidence and the skill to back it up always try to put the person down to make themselves feel better. #tallpoppysyndrome

Not sure 'arrogant' and 'smart arse' are synonyms.
