I am disgusted to annouce that we now have a namesake for the Finals Edition of this otherwise prestigious award: none other than former Geelong ruck and genuine flog John 'Samwell' Newman

Why, you ask because you've been living under a rock? This:



I know, who would have thunk it? I mean it's not like he has any previous history of embarassing behaviour

  • Wearing blackface to impersonate legendary Indigenous AFL footballer Nicky Winmar in 1999
  • Having his trousers pulled down by Shane Crawford live on-air in 2001
  • Hitting an unsuspecting David Schwarz with a pie in the face
  • Manhandling and groping a lingerie-clad mannequin with journalist Caroline Wilson's face attached to it in 2008
  • Describing five female directors of AFL clubs as "liars and hypocrites" after they complained about Newman's mannequin skit
  • Describing NFL draftee Michael Sam as "annoyingly gratuitous" in 2014 after the openly homosexual player kissed his boyfriend
  • In 2015, there were questions raised after Newman made remarks about Mitch Clark's depression issues
  • Referring to transgender celebrity Caitlyn Jenner as "he" and "it" in 2017
  • Staging a silent protest and refusing to speak throughout an episode in 2017 after producers refused to allow him to dress up as a woman
  • Ranting about the AFL Commission's decision to publicly support the "yes vote" in the Australian Marriage Law Postal Survey
  • Describing the newly elected U.S. President Joe Biden as "mentally ******ed and has special needs" on Twitter

Couldn’t really say anyone embarrassed themselves today - except people like sthmelb_dimmies who went early with their GF predictions - but this is the Bay, so:

:$ The Orange team for their goalless first quarter and allowing the Pies to defend a 1 point lead for 10 minutes

:$ Flagpies for their goalless hour and kicking more behinds than goals

Look forward to a more embarrassing game tomorrow :)

Dinsdale zackah please remove the pole thx

:$ CarLOLton for choking 5 goal lead, giving up 10 goals to 1, Curnow & McKay 1 goal/game - exposed as pretenders once again

:$ Bears for letting Carltank kick the first 5 and only winning by 16, scoring more behinds than goals thanks to Cameron 1.3

Pole will go up when Dinsdale removes the old one
 
I nominate Craig McRae's daughter this joke
