Re: Dear Dr REB....

Dear Ring of Fire,

any prolonged exposure to the staining agent Nasser Hussain is always going to result in an inflamed rectum. The prolonged hatred of this agent towards our species is toxic to all Australians and will result in an uncontrollable urge to defecate repeatedly. Interestingly enough, Dr Turdmore wrote of this effect in The Lancet . The disease you have been suffering from is Nasser Hashitmeitis. Please take three India v Australia One Dayers and see me in the morning.

Due to patient-doctor confidentiality, I am unable to disclose whether or not Mr Broad has his testicles tucked away, Peter Griffen like on his chin. However, you do not need to read the case notes to confirm the obvious.

regards,

Dr REB

Re: Ashes 4th test Boxing Day - Melbourne Discussion

Coulter Nile did most things right when trying to catch that ball
It was a good enough effort , in my opinion
Does not deserve to be rubbished by you or anyone else for that effort
Sorry Mal I disagree.
I would think that nearly every other player out there would of taken that catch. Lyon and Harris in particular have taken some rippers at fine leg.
Coulter-Nile positioned himself poorly and paid the price

Re: Brad Gotch appointed Senior Coach of South Adelaide

Good old South , just as we slowly stop laughing at the Glenelg jokes too.

Oh for a 9 team competition again.

Any idea what South have done wrong?

Since 1964, everything?
And before 1964 they had 19 years of total incompetence. In an 8 team comp the highest they finished between 1945 and 1963 was 6th. So they have had one good year in 76 years. Only St Kilda is worse.

And people like me are still here.....

Re: Essendon 2014

As I had mentioned in the SAAFL Div 6 forum. Hirdy's missus has just re-opened a sour jar of pickles and landed him in deep s**t again. Why couldnt he just accept the punishment ( got off lightly I thought ) and move on.
Lets just get on with it so the board can decide on who to coach us long term and take us to our next premiership. In my thoughts, keep Bomber Thompson on and go from there.
Is it definate?

Maybe cos she's a glory seeking, spoilt brat who stupidly believes her husband is truly innocent?
She is a very smart and successful lawyer, doubt she would be commenting unless she had reason.
Im all for the Hird's having their day in court and bringing down others just dont do it whilst we are paying for it or get the club involved. Hird needs to be removed from the club and then he can do what he likes

Re: Things that give you the sh1ts

Buying a product that i wanted at a certain supermarket,thought by reading the ticket its on special,scan it at the self serve and find that they are charging full price ask the worker why and the response its only a special for everyday reward customers that have the card.
Yes that is a cunning trick.
When it happened to me, I said, "Then I don't want it, credit it!" , and they gave me the discount anyway.

I've since got their rewards card for the convenience of not having to keep track of that, but have ignored their exhortations to sign up to the allied frequent flyers programme, and usually don't bother to activate their emailed discount offers which require you to spend more than you usually do.

(Despite being a Woolworths shareholder I tend to spend more at Coles because they usually have more of the products I want.)

Re: Has Mick Malthouse lost the plot?

I reckon as recently as his last year at Collingwood he was still the best coach in the league. As for the game passing him by take a look at Carlton's list. At full strength they could go 7-10. Minus Waite, Henderson, Thomas and Kruezer they are a shocking team. Soft as butter with more sheep dogs than Footrot Flats. The goers in the team such as Robbo and Armfield are limited. Experienced players such as McLean are lucky to get a gig. Warnock is shite and Carazzo is done.

Too much falls to too few. Judd, Simpson and Walker are three players who look to be carrying more than they should. Mick didn't want Murphy as Captain and I think this point of view has been vindicated more often than not despite Murphy's best efforts. There have been very few positives...I belive Levi Casboult has come on a treat this year, Gibbs has shown he can win the hard football and young Menzel looks to be a real player.

The club made the wrong move getting Mick and seriously overestimated their list's ability to win the flag. Judging Malthouse by his Carlton stay is like judging Pagan from his. Mick has a history of bringing up ordinary teams to be contenders but Collingwood 2002 and Footscray 1985 would absolutley pump Carlton 2014.

Has he lost the plot? Probably. The job is harder than he thought it would be. The cull should have happened last summer, not this summer. Is he a shit coach...um....no way. He would have been gone long ago if he was. Is he second to none....well, I'd have a few ahead of MIck.

Re: Preliminary Final - Port v South @ Adelaide Oval (Sun 14

OK. After 3 hours of not talking , I finally thought hey that's enough sulking for a grown man and told the missus I was going to the shop.

I want to say thanks to the Panthers for a great ride this season. I went to most home games and the odd away game. Plus all 3 finals.
Most games I went with the "Old Man", who was 16 the last time South won the flag .
So it's his fault I ended up following a team that I have never seen in a Grand Final.

I thought I better text mum to see if he was ok , as at the final siren he looked liked someone had stolen his last dollar.

Mum's text " He said he is jacked off cos they played well and got pipped at the post by imports. He has followed them for a long time. He is eating chocolate and he seldom does" ( diabetic ).

South Australia sometimes gets described as a "backwater" , but we love our state and our local footy. This is something people involved with the AFL and other states just don't get and will never get !!!

Good Luck to the Legs next week.

Re: HICKS DECISION

The majority of us think he was in the wrong place and should not have been where he was.
The majority of us think he should have been charged and jailed.

But this is where, for me, the debate centres:

If he was so guilty (which is what the majority of us think), why the hell did the Americans have to create a trumped-up charge that had no basis in law? It's pretty obvious he was guilty of something and should have been jailed, why and how did the Americans screw it up so badly that they couldn't charge him with an existing law that would not see his conviction overturned?


David Hick is Australia's new Ned Kelly - he's become a folk hero to the disaffected because, while he may have been guilty, he was persecuted by the law and treated unfairly. He has become a pariah and as time progresses and the basis of his story becomes shrouded in the mists of time, his myth will grow. All because the Americans went above the rule of law and were supported by the Australian government.

Re: AFL Finals Week 1

C’mon Trader give us an analysis of last nights game.
You know the game well.

Fine, I'll take the bait.
I wasn't going to write anything, so these thoughts aren't really considered or presented in any organised manner, so please excuse if they jump around a little, but anyway, here goes...


Firstly, lets start by pointing out the obvious.
There is no justification for last night's performance.

Was it possible? Of course.
Was it unexpected, unfortunately not.

Those of us that watch Port play week in week out know, this is all too likely with the modern Port Adelaide.

Sure, some had bought into the recent form, 6 in a row, how impressive, however those of us that look beyond the W's and L's, knew, the problems that saw the faithful calling for change remained.
Over our last 12 games, what had we actually achieved?
Split the points with Carlton who only just made the 8.
Lost to the Giants, Pumped by Brisbane, and got a win over the swans who were doing their own thing at that time of the season.
Winning games against teams not playing finals like Freo, Crows, Melbourne and Richmond, big whoop.
Oh, and we also lost to the Suns of all teams.

Anyway, enough about the form line, lucky or not, we're hosting a qualifying final and it's time to show up.

I'm no hinkley fan, I've made that clear enough on here for the last 8 years. But in his defence, I think there are some contributing factors to last night.
Houston and Farrell impact our structure and ability to move the ball out of the back half.
Finlayson another that gives our forward half a different look, while also being able to play that second ruck role.
Todd Marshall has played 1 game in the last 8 weeks, if he came in and stunk it up people would have been complaining about playing underdone players, and Todd doesn't really do that second ruck role either.

Sure, Charlie Dixon didn't contribute last night, but I'm not sure what the alternative option was. Soldo hasn't played for 4 months? And if you play Visentini, you get crucified for playing a 5 gamer in a final.

Powell-Pepper brings a finals style to our game, his injury another that I think is important to consider.

Anyway, back to the actual game, not what was missing, but what actually happened.

We'll it was fairly clear. Drew fumbled at that first centre clearance.
Zurk-Thatcher dropped his head on the wing.
And Burton showed why he frustrates many fans, elite skills, but fallen behind Houston and Farrell given he still avoids body contact.

Early on it was clear we weren't absorbing the pressure well. We were fumbly collecting the ball and rushed with disposal once we had it.

Our clearances from the back half were terrible, constantly finding Geelong players through the middle of the ground.
And if ever we did get it over half way, it was bombed on the head of Esava (and his hard hands), or kicked wide of Dixon (who couldn't move to where the ball went).

Georgie looked ok in patches, seemed to be our only option up forward, but we just didn't get the ball to him often enough.

These poor clearances from back half, and poor forward 50 entries get back to that first point. Houston and Farrell missing impacted our ability to move the ball well.
But equally, the guys that were on the park, panicked and bombed too often.
The 80 odd extra uncontested possessions the cats had to us, shows their composure with the ball vs our manic just bomb it mentality.

While I hated the way we played last night, (ie: poor skills and no structure/plan to move forward), based on the cattle available, I'm not sure we have an alternative option. It's very easy to point at what didn't work and say 'that's not good enough Ken', but without alternative suggestions, that's just criticism for the sake of criticism.

With all that said, what is inexcusable is the work rate. The fact that the cats midfield worked harder, faster and longer than us, is not acceptable. Execution from back up players is one thing, however effort from the supposed A-graders is another thing altogether.
You often looked up at cats players with 10m on their port counterparts who were all to happy to trail their man either leading up in the case of defenders, or trailing them into the forward 50 in the case of our midfielders.

That's the bit that I can't accept or excuse. That's the bit that I'm not impressed with, and that's what I would expect Ken should be attacking our guys over (but assume he wont).

The other thing I couldn't help but notice last night was the number of times our defenders let the ball out over the back. It just kept happening time and time again.

Beauty of it all is everyone still has a choice, if you want to get served you still can, if you want to self serve you can, if you want to click and collect you can, if you want to online order and get delivered you can...not sure what the issue is, you actually have more choice.

No different to the complaints around banks closing their branches and ATM's. People pay for things with their phones or smart watches and then complain they can't access cash when it suits them.

Problem being it's not generally the ones paying for things with smart phones and watches that are complaining, It's Beryl and Harold who every Tuesday want to get their $20 in 4 x $5s and an extra $20 for their Grandson birthday this Friday who are the ones affected.
