I might be wrong but i don't think power girl is one to have a cry because of a comment made about some tits.
As a campaigner to save great tits, I find this offensive.

"The nests of great tits are raided by great spotted woodpeckers, particularly when nesting in certain types of nest boxes."

A nest of great tits was raided by the great spotted woodpeckers of dane swan and travis cloke.

Marquee Collingwood footballers Dane Swan and Travis Cloke have been embroiled in a nude photo scandal with lurid images of the pair being published in Woman's Day magazine.

so......is there any truth that Swan's is tattooed and Cloke's sprays everywhere but through the uprights ?

Dwayne actually picked the second Showdown of this year as part of his set.
There's a few guys who picked close losses of teams they were associated with as part of their Foxtel sets, it actually significantly improved the selections. FWIW that game did not shame us and is very watchable for neutrals.

The game didn't shame the players much. It was the club and most of all other mobs lack of thanks for bending over backwards to give them a send off at our home game that riled. The game was everything that was wrong in 2015 in one hit.

It makes my top 3 of games that I try not to think about too much or I'll still get filled with rage (the other two the 2007 GF and 2003 QF vs Sydney).

I have to say that I'm a bit surprised at the amount of angst surrounding this game. I mean don't get me wrong I was really annoyed just after it finished, but it's not even in my Top 3 aggravating losses for 2015, which I would list in order as Bulldogs, Blues and Lions.

To be fair I wasn't at the game though and this can certainly add to the emotional impact of it all. I was absolutely peaking at the Bulldogs game.

Carlton is still the worst. They were another level of shit and we were shit to lose but I was utterly livid at the umpiring. Worst, ever. The umpire marking Hamish's kick was the height of absurdity in a terribly officiated game.

I've said here before, never been so blinded with rage as with the Carlton game.
Nearly gave away footy.

People have a problem with that game for the camaraderie we showed towards the Adelaide Football Club and it's supporters. People have it in their mind that it's blasphemous.
What nonsense. People have a problem with that game for the way we laid down and basically let them win, more or less handed them a home game, and for the way they laughed in our faces about it afterwards. The "camaraderie" you speak of was cosmetic at best.

Then Graeme Goodings jumped on his high horse on twitter and condemned our entire club because someone said "Boooo" when Walker got up to get the trophy, and without a word of condemnation from Chapman or anyone else at their organisation.

Nah, I could take the Richmond in the rain loss for the 140th, I sat right to the end of the Suns loss, I clapped Chad off against Collingwood and watched 2007 more than once.

But we were so set up by those scummy bastards, I called it before the game and what went on was disgraceful. For the first time ever I gave my membership card to my mate and told him I wasn't coming to the next game. It went against everything sport is supposed to be for me.

I realise I am in a very small minority (of possibly one) though.
Don't worry...we'll give them the smashing they so richly deserve in R2. To neuter our crowd support with their memorial at our home game while their bunch of yobbos could carry on like pork chops like as if they were winning the grand final was disgraceful. I think our boys only woke up to what was really going on in the last quarter when they realized that 'Hey, this is OUR home game, in front of OUR fans' instead of some neutral venue wankfest that Chapman and Fagan had dreamed up. But by then it was too late.

2016 - ruthless aggression. There's a ******* looooonnnnnnggggg list of campaigners we need to **** up to make the wrongs of 2015 right, and it starts with those ****heads at West Lakes.

Perfect description of the entire game really. It was one silly walk away from being a Monty Python sketch.

I have the Bulldogs game at number 1 because it was easentially an elimination final and we just didn't show up. There was no urgency, no desperation, just a flaccid display all round. Apart some Sam Gray, that little bugger ran his arse off all day.

I remember walking across the grass outside Footy Park after the 2003 QF talking the talk about how I would not renew in 2004. Then the renewals came out and I paid up. It was then I realised the only way out of this was in a pine box. Mind you as I sat at the MCG at the end of 2004 I was sort of glad I'm a pathetic dweeb.

This might have had something to do with it:



Andrew Moore? Sam Colquhoun? Aaron Young? **** me, we really were scraping the bottom of the barrel last year. No Carlile, no Polec, Jonas out of form and playing in the SANFL...oh, and no Ollie Wines.

If we can't deal with four best 22 players injured/out of form, then we're not a premiership quality list. We've already got two best 22 players out for the entire 2016 season.

I didn't even include Monfries...he was missing too. Thanks for noticing :) So it was 5 best 22 players injured/out of form. 6 if you want to include Krakouer as best 22.

Anyway, I said it had something to do with it...not that it was the primary reason. The primary reason was because the players just didn't give a shit that day.

Every game in 2016 we start with 2 of our best 22 missing - Guaranteed before any injuries or suspensions.

And we didn't run deep in replacements either. There'll be a few more from that game gone at the end of this year.
