And with bl00dy good reason… he’s obviously a very special kind of germ when even the journos themselves don’t like the acne-scarred turd-burgler…
The only time I saw the Footy Show in the last decade (at least…) was 4 years ago when I went along to see it filmed (a mate had scored free tickets). At the time Purple obviously had a “news-breaking” segment. As soon as he appeared during the break and took his position on stage, the vibe in the room turned palpably frosty. It goes without saying that the crowd didn’t like him… but beyond that the panellists gave him short thrift and the hosts were offhand with him - hell, even the stage hands barely gave him the day of time.
Once the red-light was on it was clearly all theatrical schtick, but that time when it wasn’t going to air was very, very noticeable and telling…
The sort of scum that other scum wipe off the soles of their shoes.
Geez, if the Purple Flog has a black soul, what does that make The Witch? A black hole, I reckon (astronomical reference only). She’s 1000-times nastier than Purple.
Does anybody think Woosha would act in the same way?
We need this kind of passion from our guy
She’s far more conniving and manipulative than Barrett, that’s for sure.
A lot of people in media lining up to tongue Bevo’s nuts but the same bloke threw a few of his former players under the bus in previous years.
As some know, Mrs Deck is a Bulldogs supporter.
We just came back from voting at the local school.
We were grabbing a coffee from a mobile coffee van, and next to us was standing a strapping lad with a bullies t-shirt on. Mrs Deck nudges me, so I say “well go on then, say hello to him!”
She says shyly “hi, you’re bulldogs player, aren’t you?”
He - "yep - I haven’t played seniors yet though, just VFL" (Vandermeer)
She - “are you any good?”
Had a good chuckle over that.
Jesus Christ, can we dispense with the ‘he won them a flag’ crap?
The winning of a premiership starts in round one. He played his part, certainly, but ‘won them a flag?’ Single handedly? Yeah, nah.
No police? That was a bit of an anticlimactic ending…
If they didn’t do the trade they might have won two flags.
Woosh sat on the bench all game tonight. i think thats as close as youre going to get…
No third year player is ever worth one million dollars a year - And it’s not as if Boyd is a dominant player.
I can’t make up my mind on Beverige. Was coach when the arsed a flag, but every year they finish lower on the ladder than the year preceding.
But then I see him cry when talking about Tom Boyd and I wonder if Worsfold has any emotional involvement or connection with the players like that.
Can’t argue with the fact that they won a flag, but from outside, under Bevo they seem like an overly emotional club who ride the waves too much. Too prone to the highs and lows of events. Sometimes it works for them, other times not. Unlike Hawthorn and Geelong, who just kept ruthlessly hammering away no matter what.
Making an issue of Buckley being disappointed in his own team rather than paying Bulldogs credit? Weird stuff.
26 bucks for the flag. They’re going burko. Wouldn’t want to face them in a final but would be delighted if they got Collingwood in an eliminator.
Would also be delighted if stringer turned out to be bonts best mate and he “bought a house in moonee ponds”.
They are the in form side in the comp with WCE.
with WCE? They lost on the weekend you know
Bontempelli, MacCrae, Dunkley, Hunter + Wallis & Liberatore when fit is a very, very handy midfield and then you can throw in Caleb Daniel too.
And Lipinski who has just exploded this year. McLean is more than handy through the middle too
