Brad complains about umpires... Brad was wrong... North apologises

[A Swallow]

Would like to be a fly on the wall if Brad Scott and Steph Curry's Mrs got together.

#tinfoilhats

Cotchin's missus, that Leave Britney Alone kid and Pauline Hanson would round out one hell of a good time.

For the record it did annoy me watching Lindsay get mauled legitimately high for no free kick, and the umpires fall for it a fair bit down the other end. Though Scott should've known he'd get destroyed in the media for criticising umpires - they are untouchable.

54 pages Lindsay Thomas didn't need

You should try posting less because your conspiracy rants amount to nothing more than illogical gibberish.

If you want to look at playing the umps like a fiddle, you need to look no further then the master Joel Selwood.

I notice that you don't say which football team you follow.

Maybe you are too embarrassed to admit that your team should have picked Selwood in the draft, and are regretting the dud you got instead.

 

[GTOA]

Comfortable seeing known divers not getting paid frees ala Monfries..and also comfortable seeing Thomas not getting frees after spending half his football career ducking for frees . should happen to a few other known duckers

You're comfortable about divers not getting free kicks.

Yet it is not as bad as cheating the salary cap or tanking, both of which your club has done. But I bet you are comfortable with both of those things too.

 

[GTOA]

Imagine winning that coaching box experience contest at the moment and spending it in the north box

May as well stay home with my toddler kids and listen to them sook for a few hours

Like how your team sooked about losing COLA?

 

[citizen-erased]

It's all Max Gawn's fault for smashing that crappy bounce away. All of the umpires are having a hissy fit as a result

i forgive him because beard

As comfortable as a brand new Handbag

You mean how we accepted the decision and trade ban, then moved on with class?

Yeah, our handbag, which we keep our three premierships in (and have room for a fourth, this year).

I bet Carlton carry their wooden spoons in theirs.

I'm guessing 2008 is still hitting home pretty hard.

 

[north_lad]

I would've thought Saturday, ideally, morning, would've been the time.

Maybe he's learnt to take his time?

I would say so, yeah. Keep chirping mate

 

[MaddAdam]

Considers reading all 55 pages so far.

Declines.

Very poor effort by Walsh and Scott.

 

[threesixpio]

Oh, here we go, a Hawthorn fan defending their beloved captain.

Tell us again how it was also okay for Sam Mitchell to jump into player's backs and get away with it, and not be fined for making an injection gesture to Essendon.

Funny how "ducker" Puopolo still gets free kicks every week.

??

You're a wee bit fragile to want SM getting banned for this? That's just bizarre

 

[threesixpio]

First of all, the ONLY reason you beat North on Friday night was North's bad kicking.

Secondly, you say that umpires are not to blame. Funny coming from a Hawthorn supporter, considering that fans blame EVERY Hawthorn loss on injuries, umpires or both (maybe you lost because you sucked that night). I mean Hawthorn has built its dynasty on free kicks. How about how umps paying short kicks won Hawthorn the game against St. Kilda earlier this year? All the little punches Hawthorn players throw while the umpire has his back to them, balling up, and then catches the retaliator.

Hawthorn lead the ladder for playing umps like a fiddle, and how to trick them into missing the dirty tactics Hawthorn have done for 40 years. Hell, how about the favourable treatment where the umps looked after Buckenara in the 1987 PF, and put Hawthorn in the GF. I hope Bucky paid them for their services afterwards.

People wearing pee-and-poo stained jumpers are the last people who have any right to complain about umps. Hawthorn have been successful because they knew how to play the system, and play the AFL, the umps and the media like a fiddle for years. Hell, any media outlet who hires an idiot like Brereton as a commentator and thinks that he adds anything is obviously easily fooled.

BTW, didn't hear Dermie bag James Sicily for doing the EXACT SAME thing that he criticised LT for three weeks ago. It just proves what a secretly racist, North-hating hypocrite Brereton is.

lol

The hate is strong in this one. Decades of unsubstantiated crazed hatred. Could you post some more? - I'm enjoying it

Gee - I've been saying how I'll be backing the Cats if it is a Swans/Cats GF but GTOA is making me change my mind. How many Cats supporters are saying this year's flag is in the bag? And hawthorn supporters are arrogant apparently?

He'd probably think you're working undercover for the AFL, sent in to distract him from the game as part of some conspiracy to prevent North from winning.

 

[crippton09]

You don't know what racism is, do you?

Yes I do
prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.
There was non of that there, just fact.
In fact I would argue that the original post in which I replied was loaded with more racism.

Charged with 1 count of hilarity and 1 count of telling the truth.

Swansrule100 is the sort of good bloke to almost make you like the Swans................ almost

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

North are having a big week with their leadership aren't they? Their coach in hot water for questioning the integrity of umpires. and their President having to apologise for comments in relation violence against women.

 

[HairyO]

This thread delivers.

Has Scott apologised yet?

 

[outabounds]

This thread delivers.

Has Scott apologised yet?

I am unaware of it and that is the most disappointing aspect of the whole thing to me.

Another coach who doesnt believe the buck stops with him.

That went so well for Essendon...

$25k fine and $25k suspended? Or will they go soft and have $5k of each?

 

[Sando22]

Poor effort Brad. Standard from him though.
