Ellis is right though, if there is risk of terrorist activity, the GF shouldn’t be happening

Has there been a terrorist threat?

Has there been a terrorist threat?

No it was blown (pardon the pun) out of proportion. Optus Stadium announced they were taking Chardonnay off the menu and the WC fans said a few things online that got the Federal police investigating.

Big blow for Lions fans who had already replaced Neale with Parker and two top 10 picks from Fremantle.

In his defence, Lyon has since owned up to this and admitted he was wrong and shown genuine remorse.

Depends on what happened privately between Lewis and Lyon and what he has done since.

At the time on the Footy Show it seemed unbalance. Lyon as the host was controlling the narrative and Lewis was the guest and wasn't given much chance to do anything other than sit and to listen to it. Mick Malthouse made comments a few days later that he thought it was self-serving (and all this happened after Lewis had retired and Malthouse had left West Coast).

Reckon the Lewis's could look after themselves - just got Chris into a lot of trouble with the tribunal. A mate of mine was in the same school year as the older brother Clayton Lewis and says that he used to always crack everyone up. eg When the teacher would tell him to do something he would do Kunta Kinte: "Yes Boss I will do that"

Unlike him to miss the mark.

 

[Outshined]

He's really dropped the ball here.

He's always been a P-fizzer in finals

They were told at the time about these verbal attacks being distasteful, but they didn’t back down or apologise. If you read the full article, you see that Barra mentions that coming from a WAFL background, you never slandered the indigenous players as you’d get ground into the turf by TI, Basil or Maurice

Interesting. Not sure I believe Barra’s WAFL take and the Eagles weren’t exactly a progressive team by any means, used to joke how they always had one token black guy and that’s only changed the last couple of years.

Hang on now, they were progressively in favour of enhancing mind altering growth promoting injectable, snortable and wipeable substances. No tokens required, except when CuCuCu or DDDDannnnnnk be swapping them Crown plastic circles for special lamington icing...

Agree with the joke about the Eagles having the token indigenous player.

All I really know is that you would fear for life if you gave any lip to TI & Big Bad Basil.

San Cisco performing pre prelim on Friday. Great to see another Fremantle band getting the nod.



Although if you are going to claim to offer pastries then read the room and get some vanilla slices in ffs...

In addition to the pre-match entertainment, football fans who arrive early to the match can enjoy a special offer of $3 pastries including pies and sausage rolls between 3:45pm – 4:45pm (AWST), inside the venue.

I hate the current Brisbane team no doubt, but my hatred for Bailey Smith is much worse. Dude has the most punchable face in the league, don't get me started on the mullet either, the mullet in my opinion is objectively the worst hairstyle in the world, it's so ******* ugly.

I had to laugh at this.

I agree mullets are terrible

 

[Wally Walpamur]

Given the flogs in the trade thread, I hope Geelong pants Melbourne tomorrow night

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Mich0 is definitely making it difficult to support the Dee’s which is rough because I love that group in general. Their board is hilarious

 

[DragoDelph]

I know I’ve bitten a couple of times, had to close the phone or or could have been worse, seriously there are some rubbish takes

Barich wrote game reviews for the West Australian for a while.

Something that sticks in my mind and which I thought was off at the time I read it, and he'd get absolutely ripped apart if he said it today is when he wrote about Gerard Neehsam being a unique coach...then he went on to elaborate why, and one of the reasons he gave went along the lines of: "he plays 5 indigenous players where its generally accepted you can't play more than 1 or 2."

Ouch.

Obviously had his eyes closed when he played against Souths.

Carlton board just sacked their Chief Executive, Cain Liddle. They are trying to poach departing Geelong CE, Brian Cook.
Wonder where this leaves their coach hunt.

 

[Taylor]

Who even conducted their exit meetings??

 

[Fat Nyfe]

Adam Cerra first ever CEO/captain/coach?

So messy... so very messy.
