Roast Media Shakes Head, Part 8

[PeacefulWarrior]

This honestly gets funnier by the hour.

The lack of self awareness these entitled flogs have is hilarious.

Yes, because I'm expecting Adelaide to miss the top 8 again next year.

Not a lawyer but I’m pretty sure you can sue for emotional distress.

Surprisingly, Graham Cornes has been one of the most reasonable of the crows media people about this whole thing. Last night he said that it was a pointless exercise crying about what happened, it was over, nothing was going to change the result, the only constructive thing to do was try and get the afl to have a look at the rules surrounding the review process and improve the technology to get the reviews more accurate. He said any talk of legal action or compensation was a waste of breath.

's showdown winner should be retrospectively declared null and void, and AFL records altered to reflect this, because he kicked it with less than.1.10 left on the clock. Crow logic suggests the game was already over.

Hahah, this is great!

I thought they’d learnt their lesson and were going to be classy about it so it didn’t upset the next season.

Nope, they are in their own heads and embarrassing themselves.

Excellent!

I don’t understand why that decision ends up being the one that triggers an avalanche.

Apart from the oft-cited Jenkins and Shuey examples, the infamous Carlton game of 2015 featured:

• a FK count of 24-10 in a game decided by 4 points;

• a called back advantage goal (Dennis Armfield played on, kicked a behind, and made no mistake from the second go) despite that rule being tweaked to reduce such double-dips;

• the Carlton sealer from a ‘mark’ that clearly hit the ground (Lachie Henderson);

• a potential matchwinning mark and shot at goal belatedly denied (to Sam Colquhoun) in the dying seconds — with possession stripped completely — because a Carlton opponent (Kade Simpson) claimed he touched the incoming kick;

• Robbie Gray KO’d in a vicious pinned arms double-action sling tackle by Bryce Gibbs without so much as a free kick given (later deemed worthy of 2 weeks by the MRP), with the controlling umpire even telling remonstrating teammates there was “nothing in it”;

• An umpire doing a ‘Peter Carey (not that one)’ and intercept marking a Hamish Hartlett pass on the wing, stripping possession — as is the rule — with a ball-up.

Port finished 9th, missing the eight by 1 win, and had a superior percentage to North in 8th.

Where’s our million dollars? Where’s our more favourable draw?

Laughable.

Remove the commas from that. 'Unfair unjust chairman cries' is an accurate description of what's happening.

Wow they’re really bringing out the big guns. What next Humphrey B. Bear will boycott the east coast?

Reparations! What is this, a sequel to ‘Roots’?

 

[Sheeds]

I am surprised they haven't got Greg Griffin to pipe in with what legal action he would take.

Actually.... appears he was on 5AA this morning to discuss the issue.

 

[PowerBaz]

I've had some dealings with Mrs Whicker and their daughter Kirsty.
All I can say is that they were all made for each other. Entitlement writ large.

DM for a story re Kirtsy if you want.....

We'd better get our man working on reparations for the injustice of 1990 then...

Our reparations were a 26-11 free kick count against Carlton the following year. A game decided by 2 points and umpired by none other than former Carlton player Jordan Bannister.

For all of the shit Port Adelaide people cop in their home state, it's funny how it's nearly always the crows and crow people who perpetuate all of the worst South Australian stereotypes so regularly on the national stage.
