All that is missing is the obligatory "if you can't support your team, go follow the Crows".

And yes, I'm well aware that we have plenty of the same types on our Facebook pages. They usually also have a "staying home to save lives" frame around their profile photo.
 
This choking narrative rubs me the wrong way.

It's such an overused term and mostly used incorrectly. This was hubris, plain and simple. And like all good Greek tragedies, the Footy Gods took it upon themselves to punish them.

By definition a choke implies they froze in the face of victory, which is ironic considering the game was essentially over after 10 minutes.

Do we have parents of players doing it?

This choking narrative rubs me the wrong way. Doesn't really take into account what both sides have achieved this year.

It only looks like a choke because of how mercilessly ports tyres were pumped after the QF.

They were beaten at home soundly by pretty much all decent teams this year.
I think it's a bit like the term amazing

Not accurate most of the time, but the word that pops into people's head that is close enough
 
That Jonas interview. They need to stop with that sh*t.

"we didn't uphold the port adelaide identity"

"we exist to win premierships"

It's like they've all been put through re-education brainwashing.
I've met Tom a number of times, he's a good bloke and he makes a decent wine also..... But when people talk about corporate plant, he's as big as any

That was cliche after cliche.

He is a shocking media performer and is king of getting too far of himself

Unbelievable is another that is used way too frequently - often used to describe things and occurences that, while maybe uncommon, are entirely based in reality and very believable
 
Yeh that exist to win premierships annoys the hell out of me. Every team wants to win a premiership. Unfortunately only one can a year. And it is bloody hard to do. Port supporters are stuck in the olden days of the SANFL where they would win them all the time. No that easy im afraid in the big comp.

You miss the point.
 
Oscar Piastri won the F2 race at Monza, leading the championship and could easily find himself in F1 next year as well.

Medvedev spanked Djokovic in the US Open final too.

Huge weekend.
