There are many in this world sick of having to soft shoe shuffle through life because someone may take offence at a word they utter or an action they take which would have been perfectly acceptable 10-20 years back. For instance, the players from GWS suspended for wearing twin tower costumes or...

I know you will disagree, but there are many in this world sick of having to soft shoe shuffle through life because someone may take offence at a word they utter or an action they take which would have been perfectly acceptable 10-20 years back. For instance, the players from GWS suspended for...

You cop a bit of a bollocking for your political stance, but there is something quaintly nostalgic in your position, a throwback to the days when the ballot paper included communist party candidates and when socialism really was about state ownership of major industries and transport. Back in...

If you think Harris is genocide enabling, what are you going to think of Trump? He is sure to give Israel carte blanche to do its worst. The Palestinians may as well dig mass graves for themselves. Why did Trump win? I don't understand Americans. I imagine many of his supporters have their...

The Collingwood faithful will howl you down on that particularly that our trading was conducting with not needing next year's first uppermost in mind. If he is not round one then we have made a mistake throwing away yet another first round pick.

The trades will look OK if we win next year's premiership. Houston is a good pick up but our lack of young talls forward and back is a worry that the club has not seemed to keen on addressing. It's going to be a very boring draft for Collingwood supporters but an exciting one for the clubs with...

For the second time BT has miscalled the action of the game. Hopeless.

Remember that Collingwood used Frampton in last year's GF to keep Andrews out of the action and occupied. It worked for 75% of the game and Frampton is hardly a star of the game and is in fact, I'd think, close to being delisted. Geelong certainly started the game against Brisbane with Olle...

You might have a few more Collingwood supporters behind your Swans given there is a desire among many to see Grundy win the premiership he missed out on. I'm still too lazy and too cheap to change my username and am stuck in a dinosaur era of team lists, but I suppose I still have a soft spot...

I wanted him. I didn't trade him. I have followed his career at Hawthorn with interest. In fact, I was barracking for Hawthorn last night largely so I would have the opportunity to see him play in the finals.

I like Ginnivan because he dares to be himself in a game where players tend to be sycophantic mouthpieces for the club rather than individuals. By the same token, I am wary of Ginnivan when he seeks to taunt a club the way he did Port this week. He poked the bear and got bitten, though he took...

Maybe the team things aren't working so well anymore - perhaps they have become tired and are not fuelling the teams' fire anymore, and an individual spark is needed to lift them on field. Ginnivan's cheeky, in your face celebrations and behaviour on the ground seem precisely what is needed to...

I wouldn't disagree that he is a winner. Trading him to Hawthorn was a dreadful decision, made significantly worse by the team's lack of success this year. Getting rid of him was an Oliver Cromwell kill-joy decision that cost the team a unique personality and a team lifter. Schulz was a waste of...

The Blues have a habit of losing the unlosable, like they did last week. I wouldn't be too cocky about this game.

Unfortunately yes but I kind of knew he was going to make us pay dearly today. He played a great game.

De Goey has hung in by a thread and was just too good a player to discard.

The Pies haven't liked players with character, flair and personality for years. It's a Buckley legacy, a hangover from his 10 year Cromwellian rule.

De Goey turned up? With 4 possessions in the first half!

And a first and second round draft pick. :mad:

He has looked slow and loose all season.

If we have it's not what won us the premiership. Access to the MCG this year has hardly given the team any advantage. Nor will it worry the Swans when they win a premiership on a ground that is not their own.

Quaynor now on Ginnivan. They were good mates and Quaynor is having an awful season.

There was a different mindset last year. Also few injuries. Your theory doesn't have much substance to it.

Not really much consolation if you live in the here and now or even the next few years. We have a dad's army of a list with several in their mid to late 30s. Your team is in with a good chance this year and you are far better set than the Pies for future shots at the flag.

A premiership, then a series of trade errors, numerous injuries, loss of form, over-consumption of own bathwater, as old age catches up with too many magpie stalwarts. Our two recent acquisitions in McStay and Schultz obviously meant to help us to a second premiership because they will be 30 and...

Are you kidding? We get no favouritism from Christian.

Kreuger out now? Can it get worse?

Ginnivan not disappointing me. He is BOG, has got under the defender's skins and Maynard will get time off for losing his cool with him. Really stupid list management trading him He is killing us.

Whatever the result, I kind of hope that Ginnivan shows up the absurdity of Collingwood's decision to trade him for peanuts and give up a first and second round draft pick for an underperforming midget in Schultz. It was a decision that ignored the obvious need to draft a high pick tall or a...

Except that when Trump loses a democratic election he claims to have been cheated, so he doesn't really recognise democratic procedures that don't directly benefit him. Then of course there is the Capitol Hill invasion which he encouraged. That was hardly a recognition of democratic systems.
