I just assumed they had to have Richards to balance out our KG Cunningham

Too bad the legendary finbarr missed his shot back yon

Yeah a fair comparison. Football would have been a much better place without both of them.

 

[tribey]

Richards deliberate mispronunciation of "E Bert" was fecking annoying also.

Robram was another.

I just thought it was one of those ‘skewl’, ‘pewl’, ‘coowl’, ‘milk bar’ things.

I mean.. you can only beat what's in front of you. And you can't do it much better than by 20 goals. What would you give them?

Certainly not an A plus for beating a z,grade team.

Richards deliberate mispronunciation of "E Bert" was fecking annoying also. Ted Whitten I could respect for his passion and humour but Richards had no redeeming features. An annoying turd dragged in on the sole of someone's boot.

Porple-achee-ha for Andy Porplycia was another of Richards obviously deliberate c*ck ups when pronouncing SA player's names, which were often followed up with his extremely patronising `don't they have funny names over there?'

As you suggest he was an `annoying turd!'

will miss the next three matches.

A+ for the Crows at home against WC grade is a bit much

It's like getting an A+ in art... Looks good but doesn't mean much..

 

[Schulzenfest]

James Sicily will miss the next three matches.

For a tackle he was paid a holding the ball free kick for. Nobody has any idea what they are and aren't allowed to do.

Exact replica of the Jonas incident.

Low around the hips, doesn't slam, the player effectively gets KO'd because another player comes past and affects the way he'd naturally fall.

Absolutely shocking decision. What are they arguing Sicily should have done differently?

Looks like Chad's pretty happy about it too

Free kicks

 

[EskimoPAFC]

So basically every team in the top 8 except for Adelaide and Port Adelaide sit in the top 50% of the table?

He didn’t need to rotate him like he did. Have you seen the vid from the other angle? The player going over top didn’t effect anything.

They just need to tackle and drop their weight, didn’t Wanganeen do that well?

Unsociable Hawks making a comeback!

Sicily with this.
Stratton pinching.
Hodge wrapping Wingards head across a point post.
Lake choking Petrie.

Unless the external pressure is what you can't deal with.

For mine, external pressure is perceived rather than real for those with a sound psychology.

The real question is: who at Brisbane is getting the good mail, and why don't we poach them?

A decade in and still giving away free tickets.

Which is a shame as watching Toby Greene work his craft is one of the joys of the game atm and certainly worthy of paying a regular admission price to see.

 

[OneGreatClub]

Certainly not an A plus for beating a z,grade team.

Exactly, they could rate it A+ then deduct points for playing witches hats.
I’m not denying he’s a good goal kicker but Tex was basically allowed to get 10 goals in a training run, set up for him.

Stop whining; it's totally cringe. Winning by 122 points is a significant achievement in modern football, regardless of opposition. As a reference, we won the equivalent fixture by 40 points. Based on some of the comments here, we should've folded after that.

Rest assured,I am not whining. I just dislike them so much that I will not give them any credit. They get enough smoke blown up their clackers without Port supporters joining in.
