f me.
its better to clutch at straws than to give up and f drown. ffs take a good hard look at the negativity and lack of ticker in that approach.
give up. its this sort of attitude that has diminished marriage and turned relationships into short term contracts with f free agency after 6 or 7 years.
i won't give up. i will clutch at as many straws as it takes to stay positive and offer suggestions as to fixing what we have instead of throwing it out and getting a new one.
AND NO I DON'T WANT THE F EXTENDED WARRANTY!!!
Peace out. |

Why not bring out Scotty Burns' Wet ANZAC DAY 2002 Jumper and lubricate the G before we play the flea bags and make them slip over so we can catch them! _________________ " Ohhh Banksy and out comes the Note Book".

I think that your on the ball can. I can't wait to see the development of our younger gruntier players like treloar de goey crisp Maynard frost williams Adams Phillips crocker etc. I'm telling ya bucks is building an old school winters finals specialist side. May take 15 to 30 rounds for it to really begin showing but its there. Hopefully we can rule the afl for years with our territorial scrimige style. The way footy should be. The days when you know you deserve that hot shower. I love winter footy. Nothing beats it. _________________ Gavin Brown.. Collingwood lifting..Right on the boundary line, back to Milane likewise...

So Bux is also a climate change denier then… did he factor in the warming planet whatsoever when he decided to target these old school winter specialists?
What about Docklands and the roof? - that will not suit our muddy park game style! Maybe that is why Eddie was reported recently calling for the ground to be demolished? _________________ Love us or Hate us... we are Collingwood - you can't ignore the Mighty Magpies!!! |

last night's game was less free flowing than we have come to expect at etihad. scoring was difficult. a lot more contests than we've seen to date. it showed you only had to be a few percent of your game and the other team can make life hard for you. _________________ Purveyor of sanctimonious twaddle. |

who was off their game?
so far this year when two running teams have played each other the scores are much lower (although not always) and the contests are more regular - however you have to be able to match the outside run of those teams to make the contest a dog fight…
I think last night dogs won the contests and had more possessions but still lost where it counted - on the scoreboard! _________________ Love us or Hate us... we are Collingwood - you can't ignore the Mighty Magpies!!! |
