i dont think Swallow would be that stupid to kick into the wind in the first term...could he?

Let's not fuel that myth..

If gws can beat Sydney next week, month... Whenever the finals start, I'm still thinking an all Sydney gf is in the cards.

Melts everywhere haha.

sydney v gws first week of the finals... cracking match up.
geelong v hawks, another cracking match up
wce v wb, bloody hell bulldogs might be in strife
adel v nth. go north....

Despite the double chance. I think Adelaide will have a harder run if Hawthorn lose today and they finish 4th as it's likely to be:

• QF vs Sydney at SCG (loss)
• SF vs WCE at AO (we've just seen how that turned out)
• PF vs Geelong at MCG
• GF vs Sydney at MCG

If Hawthorn win and they finish 5th, they get a practice run against North at AO to build some confidence and self belief heading into a SF which is likely to be away to GWS which I think they can win if they're up and about.

tl;dr

If Adelaide finish 4th - good chance of straight sets exit
If Adelaide finish 5th - good chance of at least a PF

Were some parts of your previous girlfriend from Sydney and some not? Intriguing.

Speaking of rucks, has anyone else noticed that Hoff hasn't rucked since the second half of the Brisbane game, when Butcher started in the ruck, in what I can only assume was part of a conspiracy to limit his output in that fame after his blistering 2nd quarter?

Nick nailed it. But might be looking for a new job right now. So if anyone can help him out...


Nick Ryan: One banana and hysterical Crows fans want to play blame game against Port Adelaide

IF this week has taught me anything it’s how I’ve never been happier than I am right now to be a Port Adelaide man.

Mainly because it saves me from the alternative.

Nothing exposes the synthetic supporters who consider themselves the sum total of all South Australians more than the opportunity to whinge about the failings of the nasty people from Port Adelaide.

Ok, which one of you is Nick Ryan

Definitely an SA poster. Those interstaters on here have NFI about how putrid it has been getting over here lately.

Some quotes from TFA:

The chance to sink a crocheted boot into the Port Adelaide Football Club will create a pile-on of Crows fans almost as big as the one you’d get if you strapped an oiled-up Tony Modra to a waterbed in the middle of West Lakes Boulevard.

Nobody handled it better than Eddie Betts. But that didn’t stop the red, blue and gold army using the furore as an excuse to tell their horror stories about how attending a Port Adelaide home game requires of them the kind of bravery and resilience not seen since 300 Spartans confronted the Persians, at Thermopylae.

It’s as if the AFL realised back in 1990 they needed a team for all those kids who raced home from school to tell their parents they’d been picked on, so they leaked their negotiations with Port Adelaide in order to force the SANFL to create the Crows.

If this man makes it through the day alive it'll be a miracle.

Crows lost, Derby lost, Port won, hopefully Forest make up the Quaddy

3-1 baby

 

[Grave Danger]

Oh ****.

I should have stopped at the end of a very good article.

I started on the comments.

fml.

I didn't click on the comments button - so humanity is in a quantum state of being both alive and dead.

More important question is who on here actually agreed to employment at the Advertiser...

 

[Trewth]

They haven't taken this very well on the other board. I thought those guys loved a bit of biased satirical banter, they seem to love that Tom Richardson guy..

 

[Magus]

Haha no sense of humour those guys

Bwahahahaha he nailed it and most of the Clowns in the comments confirmed it with their replies. Top article would read again.

I thought some of those comments were as funny as the article, he certainly threw sand into a lot manginas.

Edited to add: just read the thread on the other board and going by the saltiness on that one he used a front end loader to throw it.

 

[Killer Power]

The Nick Ryan article is brilliant. Surprised that I wasn't awoken by the synchronised spitting of All-Bran across Brighton breakfast tables this morning.

My money is on tribey

Although they clearly had to redact parts of the article

Yeah, yet they are happy to own a brain dead moron like Crowey, and their arrogant campaigner of a former coach.

Most Port supporters I know, nail weak as p*** blokes like Dittmar and Derwayne, and call them for what they are!

Add Rucci to that list, the biggest band wagoner of them all, and he isn't even ashamed of it either which makes it much worse

Popped over for a quick look, cbf reading all of it though. The funniest thing is that they have devoted a whole thread to a newspaper article that was probably designed to incite exactly that. Sucked in.

I thought the same thing, it appears only one poster on that thread has seen the article for what it was.

Pretty much proving everything in the article to be on point.
