Me too, it's The Age readers who want this forum to be one without humour or a laugh who have ruined it. I'm sure it's not too hard this Friday AM to know who I'm referring too through my VAFA Eye.What's going on with all the posts being deleted. It is getting beyond a joke.
I got a message citing rubbish, this whole forum cites rubbish.
I'm done. Mounzer Out!

Bring back the St Bedes and OEG posters I say! We could Hedge our bets and eat Rissoles for dinner then Sideswipe a car whilst driving and it would be more fun than reading the posts by all of these half back Flankers.
Obviously the forum Privateye has nothing else to do, but leaves the dribble posted about big DJ for all to see.
Hopefully all of the aforementioned delete their accounts.

Its not daunting at all, we've beaten Uni Blacks twice, lost to Blues by a point and beaten Old Trinity so far this year. You should get to games more often, Ash Morris has been there most of the year.

You really are a top shelf Richard Cranium, so now I'm Harrow? And Sausage Roll! Unlike you I don't have 80 hours a week to post crap, let alone go to the Richmond board(Just looked at his/her history) and talk crap about a team I don't support. Is it really too hard for you to grasp that??? You are as smart as your idiot mate Scribe, he banged on about me being SR for years, pretty scary he is a lawyer, he had no idea.Talk about hypocrisy writ large.
The one poster who is front and centre when the forum has descended into a bedlam over the years is you. Whether as ‘Brian Speaking’ or ‘bob down’. Despite you recently claiming you have one username you have admitted in the past to using the ‘bob down’ alias by posting via your Iphone. More dissembling. Or 'Sausage Roll' or 'Harrow'. When you or anyone of those aliases take a vacation the forum settles and runs smoothly.
Your posting is largely ad hominem to the point one of the many reasonable people from the club you follow said here only recently that people from your club have asked you to pull your head in such is the damage you are doing to that club. So don’t suggest you are a humorous poster, you are the polar opposite of it.
Your role in putting off people posting here over the years is well known to us regulars as was your role in 'Scribe' being forced to close his account.
I’m hoping Mounzer11 will re-think his decision to stop posting as he’s one of the good guys.
They left because of first rate flogs like AM.Where are Slay Master G & The Big Pineapple when you really need them !!!!
Talk about one of the other 9 clubs would you? SKOB are one game out of the four, I'd suggest St Bernards aren't cutting it for reigning premiers.Riddle me this Brian.
You were keen enough to set up this A GRADE forum no more than 48 hours after SKOB finally climbed out of B GRADE back in September. A little excited to release the choker hold that B Grade had on you for 10 years were we? You were on the front foot all summer with promoting the ring ins, had a constant of excuses when the SUPER SIDE found it hard to win early and have since shut up shop since finals are increasingly unlikely.
I am still curious as to the reasoning behind the unbeatable side not cutting it with the top flight this year?
Is it really all down to Mark Jamar not playing with you?
Didn't you tell us that the top 40 odd players had either AFL, VFL or TAC experience?
Pippie or a prawn?
Ad hominem would make for an excellent next alias for the man of many names. In the meantime, it's only about 24 hours until a new opportunity to bag umpires and opposition players instead of Bigfooty posters. The week does drag on sometimes.Talk about hypocrisy writ large.

Credit to a Snowdogs who without star power had a fighting win at Dairy Bell today. The Bellers are really struggling at the moment.
It’s a long time since I’ve seen such a small supporter turnout for the Snowdogs who are renown for their numbers and raucousness.
Thought it was the best umpiring set I’ve seen all year. Including the bald fieldy who the forum bully and general buffoon said shouldn’t be umpiring at Premier level. The young female boundary ump has the makings of someone who could go further.
Good post JJ. Re the star power, I was referring more to the losses from last year -Jones, Merrington etc. Didn't think there were any stand out players running around in their team today though.Reckon the four is set with De La shot to pieces. Today’s they had only 8 left from the side they put out in Rd 1 and are a shadow of the team from earlier in the season. Will battle to win another game. OM’s and SKOBs have healthier lists but probably too much ground to make up. Real interest in 9th position now.
Not so sure about St Bernard’s lacking star power AM. Looked to have most of their guns back and was told they had 14 from last years flag winning side on the park today. The Lions would be very, very nervous.
Agree re the umpires. Barely noticed them, which is always a good sign.

Bentick is special. Didn't think he exceptional yesterday. But I'll bow to your better judgement.Bentick an absolute stand out for mine, which was reflected in the best player nominations. Was unstoppable. Considering the personnel challenges the bellers were brave for 3 ½ quarters but they are well and truly cooked. The team was barely recognizable today. Unlike Xavs, Blues etc they clearly don’t have the stocks to deal with player losses of this magnitude. No excuses and they need to find a way to bat a bit deeper.

Why so many missing at your club JJ?
Jimmy, have to agree to disagree on this one. Bentick's return is testament that it's not how many injuries but rather who the injured players are. Who is least likely to be replaced, the 100 game ressies stalwart or Adam Bentick ?All clubs have injuries. It is just part of football and no point letting it get you down. But once every 5 or 10 years all clubs seem to get touched up more than usual and it is just our time. Since about the mid way point have lost 4 or 5 every week and just don’t have the quality to cover them. Combined with a larger than usual contingent of travellers and the club is really feeling it.
While results suggest otherwise, in some perverse way it can be a positive and this can often galvanize a club. I also enjoy seeing youngsters or entrenched two players getting a crack.

Yep! The two aren't necessarily mutually exclusive though.I absolutely agree with you SF. It is not just about how many but whom and obviously some players are substantially more difficult to replace then others.
My point is there is nothing you can do about so why not just enjoy the opportunity it provides to give some others a chance.
