Where did the phrase "turn it up" come from?

It's an old saying that, in Australia anyway, was used as a mild expression of disbelief. (Basically meaning ""cut the bullshit")
Kid: "The dog ate my homework."
Teacher: "Turn it up."

When you write your tell-all book after leaving the Diplomatic Service, I'd like to read your warts and all story on this.

I just ignore what he says....

Not a fan of Barrett and not defending him, but let's be honest our trade period was pretty ordinary. Paid a pretty solid price for Yarran who has big question marks, didn't get any of the other players we were after, didn't fill any other needs.

Think you will be very happy with Yarran at pick 19 compared to who would be available to draft

His best is electric

 

[TigerImposter]

Cmon your not that naieve are you.

WOW you think he had a good year and can be better and your talking about credability. It would be funny if it wasn't so serious. The bar is set so low with so many. Mate one word sums Batchelor up. ORDINARY.

Two words
Very Ordinary

Check out his highlights on Richmond AFL website. He used to carve us up. (And others)

In his latest edition of sliding doors after the trade period, Damien has a dig at us for the umpteenth time. It read:



After our elimination final, this campaigner ripped shreds off us saying we needed depth to help out Cotchin and Houli, because if you shut our inside players out, and dry up our run from half back, we can't do damage. Fair enough, I agree.

This flog then puts this out. Well Damien, like you wanted us to do, we got depth. We got an exciting pacey half back to give Houli a chop out and provide more run from half back, and we got a bull of an inside mid who tackles hard and can win his own ball. JUST LIKE YOU SUGGESTED.

We got 2 best 22 players straight into the side, while keeping our first rounder and a majority of our picks. If you cannot see that our list now is stronger than it was in 2015, you sir, are a flog. But we already knew that.

The thing is though unless we start winning finals you'll have idiots like him talking crap about us , we do have a lot to improve on , but I reckon we did well in adtessing our needs as well as keeping pick 12 .

 

[TigerTime88]

What a moron...I cannot stand this bloke he is so negative ans hates the tigers.

Would have never played a game of footy in his life but pots everyone.

Genuine campaigner!

 

[This Is Anfield]

I'm ultra consistent on this. Why do you worry about what a journalist says. Do you really think it matters?

Of course it really doesn't...but it's part of the game to pay out on flogs like him .
The trade thread is dead and we need, need I say, an outlet for our frustrations, Barrett is as good a target as any as he really, really is an unlikeable, smarmy flog.

Biggest stuffen campaigner in Oz. Wouldn't pi$$ on him if he was on fire

 

[Tiger_4_Life]

IF there is a bigger flog than Damian Barrett.......
THEN your name must be Craig Hutchison (or is it a dead heat)

Ironically it's hutch who has been backing us in of late

 

[smasha]

There's a smorgasboard of rats in the media,Tony Jones another one.

 

[Tiger2709]

What about Caroline Wilson? Or John Ralph? Or KB? Or Gerard Whateley? The first three are Tiger's fans and Gerard is scrupulous.

Others don't treat Richmond as seriously as Richmond wants because Richmond is not having a red hot crack off the field.

Your administration needs to start channelling your mighty forebears: Ian Wilson, Graeme Richmond, Alan Schwab etc

Treloar would have at least listened to such Titans

Yeah great idea, Ian Wilson and Graeme Richmond got us in the shit that started our 35 year drought with their crap trading.

3 finals series says we are on the right track, we missed one target and got another while holding on to the players that got us to 5th spot, not too bad really.

Player retention is something people forget at trade time, unlike some clubs that lose players as fast as they get them we hold on to ours on less money than they could get elsewhere and our graph is still trending upwards.

I dont really care if he backs us. He is a flog ofthe highest order both professionally and in person.

18. RICHMONDMissed out on key target Treloar, but it's hard to knock the Tigers given they held their nerve and got Chris Yarran for pick No.19 and Giants inside midfielder Jacob Townsend for a steal. Should they, or could they, have done more? They will say no, but success-starved supporters can be a demanding lot.

Is this the biggest load off shit? How did we do the worst in the trade period? lol

 

[Nostradumbass]

Can't understand why people take this arsebat seriously....

We aren't, that's the point, and fun, of it.

Pretend internet upset, probably.

Agree.

In the first place, in the same article the Bulldogs get a pat on the head for retaining players whilst Richmond's resigning of several of our stars (remember Rance and Dusty?) as well as Lennon seems to be forgotten.

In the second place, it's all well and good making snide implications that the club could have done better. That's an easy claim to make but I notice there's no suggestion as to how. Hell, they don't even mention what Richmond did wrong that justifies their ranking. So "it's hard to knock the Tigers" but we'll stick them at #18 anyway.

And what annoys me further is that they imply that somehow Richmond supporters agree that results of the trade period were poor.

I'd sum up the quality of this article simply by saying that I've seen more balanced analysis in the BF trade threads.

 

[Dusty Cotch]

Earlier in the year him & Brayshaw where stroking each other about how Roos should have more Friday Night games & that the RFC didn't deserve them. Fact is Barrett your team the Roos have half the membership & Supporters the Tigers have & Tiges went on to be the most watched side in the Comp!.. No retraction or apology was forthcoming from the imbecile

 

[doodles98]

WE had a tilt at Carlisle? We failed to land him? This has hurt our finals chances? Discuss.

It didn't. Being Richmond apparently does though.

 

[smasha]

Barrett sucked Lollywood's .... like all media?

 

[Put a Lids on it]

If we got treloar he would of bagged us for overpaying still would of put us last ****ing shit campaigner he is.
