Geoffa started it. It's his way of fooling himself into believing his own deluded, confused logic that we're not the "real Pirt" and that he did indeed back the right horse. Of course, he's fooling no one.
The harder he tries, the more you know it burns. He's dying inside.

I would have thought in terms of prose quality we as a BF forum should try to occupy the broad middle ground between Facebook on the one side and the New York Times on the other. I think there's room for us.

Christian Petracca's done his ACL and his 2015 is shot before it's begun. Poor kid. First he got drafted by Melbourne and now this.

Are Melbourne still seeing karma from sacking Norm Smith all those years ago? Horrendous luck ever since.
Luck?

They haven't helped themselves with some pretty poor decision making as well. Ever since I can recall I've associated Melbourne with 'good old boys' who went to the right schools and are seen in the right places. The creed of privilege and power, not Fos' Creed of Port Adelaide, hard work and inclusiveness.

I'm sorry for this kid and I hope he recovers, but I have no pity for Melbourne.

Now that's what makes me cringe, not the name-calling stuff.
