Jason's car was seen out the front of Robs Aquarium but he never went inside... I guess we know where he was and what he was doing.

I hear there was a sale next door.......

hey sandy a draw still puts us 1.5 games ahead of the hawks on the ladder so its just as good as win  

 

but yeah performance wasnt up to their usual standard... all credit to gold coast - their indigenous players really made their team fast and kept tackling pressure up all day... umpiring wasnt up to usual standard either... 20 frees to gold coast and only 12 to west coast... big difference... but not saying umpiring cost us the game - our inability to kick goals in the final quarter did it... too many misses - hutchy 20 metres out on a slight angle and he sprays it wide... i dont think he'll get a game this week that was terrible from a professional footy player... accuracy again haunts west coast... but we have one of the most potent forward lines in the competition and the coleman medal leader... and prob the brownlow medal winner again too... priddis is racking up more stats than last year when he won it.... 

 

hawthorns performance was just lack lustre IMO.... they looked tired from kicking so many goals the week before lol 

[sandgroper]

You were 1 and half clear, your playing with the big boys now.

[bigjohnnofish]

[sandgroper]

[bigjohnnofish]

Now I’ve heard everything! The AFL and every sports commentator in the country is admonishing the crowds for booing Adam Goodes. Well, now the crowds can add Lewis Jetta to their list of people worthy of booing because, although the AFL might be able to eject a 13-year-old girl from the MCG, it can’t eject 50,000 fans who paid to have their say.
Crowds have always been a sonic barometer of what’s fair and what’s not... and they are invariably right! Forget idiot commentators, AFL administrators are the curators of the game and have a duty to wipe out this racist garbage Aboriginal players are provocatively throwing at fans of opposing teams.
Jetta and Goodes should both have copped three weeks and a ten grand fine each as would have non-Aboriginal players had they performed similar racist antics to the detriment of the game.
AFL boss Gillon McLachlan has said the booing must stop! Will someone explain to this idiot that the only way to do that is to stop Aboriginal players racially taunting the fans of opposing teams... it's not rocket science!
There are no administrators of sport on earth (except for the AFL) that would allow players to interact racially with patrons during a game.
And don't come the Haka comparison bullshit. That is performed before the game and directed at the opposing team, not at the fans of the opposing team during the game.
It seems that angry racial outbursts must now be seen as “cultural expressions” in the AFL PC handbook of how to conduct one’s self as a professional Aboriginal footballer.
There is no such thing as an Aboriginal warrior, or a war dance... it is a myth concocted by urban radicals as an expression of hate and defiance toward whites.
Why isn’t the modern Aborigine who has reached the pinnacle of his chosen sport seen with a traditional Aboriginal girl at gala functions? Now there’s something that would be culturally positive and endearing. But oh no, you will never see that! A trophy white girl is now invariably needed as a mark of black success.
So much for “culture” and the humbug of excuses that justify bad behaviour on the field.
The AFL should put a stop to this racial effrontery before it gets out of hand. It will continue and increase as long as commentators and administrators ridiculously support it as an “expression of culture”.
The universal respect for Aboriginal achievement in sport, successfully promoted by the “Indigenous Round”, is coming apart at the seams because the AFL is promoting unacceptable racial behaviour from players who would otherwise be the heroes of adoring fans.
There is a limit to “cultural expression” from all cultures. That limit is reached when it offends others and in this case it clearly has.
So don’t blame the loyal fans... use them as a guide to what’s acceptable

 

Did I mention A fine of $5k to $10 earlier - plus 3 weeks - any white player would have copped that - it is sickening to see these 2 get away with it - my days of supporting a girl's game run by bigger girl's is severely numbered. - there is only one way to get a positive out come and that is launch an attack on the AFL and prove to them this will not be  tolerated  by the people who pay these nasty people's wages. - motor sport is looking a better place to direct my $'s - at least they don't get they Mummy to come on TV and beg the crowd to stop Booing after the naughty little boy has racially tormented them........................

Well written mate

Go Goodes ... just go

 

 Someone's else's opinion on how to make enemies through your own stupidity

Why did we adore Lionel Rose but hope Mundine gets sat on his arse? Why did we love Polly Farmer and Syd Jackson but dislike Adam Goodes? Because we are Australian! We are racially agnostic and we are colour blind. We can choose who we will like and we will always give everyone of every race and colour a fair go providing we are given a fair go in return.
Mundine runs his finger across his throat and Goodes simulates throwing spears at us in a specially invented war dance. And we are supposed to respect that sort of bullshit?
We are fair dinkum Australians, we’ll buy you a beer and pick you up when you’re down. We’ll shout you a feed and drive you home when you’re pissed, you will never have a better friend for life... but if you choose to crap on us then expect a full tank of sewage around your neck in return.
We know what’s fair.
I have worn the red and white of “The Bloods” for most of my playing career. Right down to St George and the lowly Woy Woy Swans where I retired at near 50 after my son had played in the centre for the same team for ten years planting balls on my chest at full forward.
I’m a Swan fan through and through and at one time, when they were millions in debt, I was negotiating to buy them, before Mike Willesee put together a consortium.
So when one of the most talented indigenous players ever (one of many) joined the club it was an exciting time. But that incident with a 13 year-old girl changed everything for ever. We saw the vindictive, nasty Goodes. The Goodes, regardless of his talent, Australians will not cop, and they showed it.  
We made him Australian of the Year only to be told we were racists. The media’s support of him only emboldened him further, so he figured it was okay to rubbish his fellow Australians as “invaders”... that it was okay to demand that a schoolgirl be removed from the MCG for calling him a name.
Well, it’s not okay! It’s bloody un-Australian and we fair dinkum Australians wrote him off from that point on. He never apologised to that little girl so that little girl never had the opportunity to apologise to him.
But it can be resolved, he can play again to cheers instead of boos... we can again enjoy his talent, shake his hand and be proud of his Aboriginality. It will take those who love to bathe in the warm glow of their own political correctness, along with the dumb AFL and the Left media to shut the (EDITED) up and allow the arbiters of the sport, the crowds, to sort it.
All it will take is for Goodes to do a Bronwyn and apologise for doing what he did. I know, you know, and every fair dinkum Aussie knows we are the best forgivers around. Then he can run on to the field to cheers and applause with nary a boo to be heard. That’s what Aussie crowds really want and Aussie crowds, as one, are the best at knowing what’s fair.
What Goodes did was wrong and insulting and he has a window of opportunity to resolve it for the sake of the game. We said sorry, now it’s his turn. We would all love to see him back as a player and not as an Aboriginal activist. He can save that for his political career rather than bring it on to our sporting fields.
But I fear Goodes would much rather wallow in his hatred of “invaders” than return to what we admired him for and what he is best at.
And that's a shame.

Well it appears the best team won on the night. Great game to watch! West coast really suffered in the centre of the ground without Nic Nat..
For me watching Rioli taking a big hanger in the 4th was an awesome highlight!

Carn the mighty Hawks

[sandgroper]

HAWWWWWWWKS, where all happy here at hawthorn. You all know the cartoon game Where's Wally, well i thought you might like to play WHERE"S JOHNNO

 

 

                           WHERE'S JOHNNO

1. Down the back shed crying

2. At the pub drowning his sorrows

3. Floating face down in his pond out the front

4. Somewhere else (you guess)

[bigjohnnofish]

entertaining guests for dinner but i got to watch the game.... no nic nat or callum sinclair suddenly gave fill in ruckman lycett a one man job.... we had no drive out of the middle and i think that made all the difference... and hitting the post 3 times didnt help either.... close game and once hawks got that 2 goal break in last quarter it was all over....you need at least 6-7 goal advantage going into final quarter to feel safe...

good effort from both teams and if thats anything to go by finals are gunna be good this year ..... 

 

just hope we beat freo next week and we can sow up second spot to get 2 home finals

THE FOOTY WAS GOOD WITHOUT GOODES

 

     

There was the brilliant Lewis Jetta’s celebration of a goal that looked more like a Kabuki fan dance but no simulated spear throwing, no “up your bum” aggressive arm and fist gestures, no charging at astonished patrons, no little girls ejected from the ground... actually the weekend’s footy had no nasty racist incidents at all! Could it be that Adam Goodes decided to stay home?
Goodes was shocked at the average Aussie’s reaction to his disgraceful antics, but he shouldn’t have been, he should have been grateful that some disgusted footy fan hadn’t jumped the fence and jobbed him!
Media’s Left had emboldened him and adorned him with an undeserved Australian of the Year prize. He started to believe his and their bullshit. He only mixed in white Aboriginal circles that promoted an Aboriginal victim mentality. 
Well, Adam was served a dose of reality from real Australians who believe this land is theirs too. He clearly didn’t appreciate that much, so he took a week off to sulk.
How dare you tell me you’re more Australian than me you bastard? I was born here before you were! I understand this land better than you!
Come bush with me Adam and I’ll show you what it’s like to spend three months at a time fencing on horseback. I’ll show you how to catch perch without a hook and how to cook it, where to find bush fruit and vegetables, how to make real ‘roo tail soup, bake wild tomato damper and cook an emu egg omelette. 
I’ll explain what snakes taste best and when you tire of that fare I’ll show you how to catch a feed of teal duck without a gun and what firewood will last all night to keep the dingoes at bay.
Or why not take six months off, like I did a few years ago, and I’ll show you an inaccessible Australia from an R22 helicopter you are never likely to see. But I guess you are too busy with gala celebrity appointments where fawning activists regurgitate your bullshit.
You want to share this land with me, Adam? You’re welcome... but never tell me it’s not mine too, and never taint our national game with your vile racism.

Are these being posted satirically?

I went and read some other stuff from the 'Pickering Post'. Was good to for a laugh. I think 'Pickering' is actually serious though....  . 

[bigjohnnofish]

he is very serious you should read a lot of his stuff about homeless aussies vs immigrants who are being showered with money and free everything....

[Mattia]

What immigrants are showered with money and free everything? And why am I working my a*s off and have nothing free? How do I get into that? Hahaha

[dicky7]

mattia you flew in ..... you didn't arrive illegaly by boat

[sandgroper]
