Celebrity chef and restaurant owner Gary Mehigan says "restauranter" on an ad for his podcast. There's no such f'arkn word. How does that happen?

Dwayne is notorious for his usage of "The West Coast" and "The Gold Coast". Annoys me to no end.

I agree, even though you support The Richmond.

"learnings". And other such buzzwords that creep into our woeful footy journalist troops vernacular.
Watching post game on fox.
Its f*n embarrassing.
Also like the aimless handballing a footy around during promos.
We have undeniably the shittest sports journalism the world over.

Have always hated this, even when I was a kid.

It’s ok to say I’m going to the Gold Coast. But saying we playing the Gold Coast sounds just wrong.

Reading this article from Matt Balmer (Fox Sports)... does anything strike you about his style?

"Ruckman Stefan Martin has battled injuries this season and isn’t getting any younger given he turns 34 in November. He could be pushed for a one-year deal, but it could be down to how his body is feeling"

"Veteran Kade Simpson will be 37 next year, but hasn’t performed poorly this year, indicating he could well receive one final contract at the club."

"Could a change of scenery help Ben Reid’s career? It would have to be considered given Grant Birchall’s excellent season for Brisbane. Reid has been cruelled by injuries, with the tall not playing more than 18 games in a year since 2013. At 31, he might have a couple of years left in the tank if a club thinks they can get him over his injury woes."

He writes like someone who's at about 450 words for an assignment that has a word count of 1000. He's like the written version of Dermott Brereton.

On retiring Kreuzer just said ‘the mind can’t do what the body wants to do anymore’.

That's like me trying to go to sleep every night, though.

In the Richmond v Geelong game in the first quarter Bruce was remarking on how long ago Castagna had his last goal...

"When was that opening round? It seems like neons ago..."

Obviously up in lights in his head.
