  1. Really unsure what to make of that game. My instinct is that there's probably a lot of work to do. That good sides will eat us alive and won't let us get away with being so toothless in attack. No one really stood out for me, pretty average effort across the board. But OTOH, we may have just played out Joyce's plan perfectly and every week we'll be able to be this solid defensively and just pinch a goal or two going forward. We also have a few players to come into the side so there's improvement to come there. It's hard to say one game into season. I think my concerns outweigh the positives for me. I'm not expecting us to get anything out of the derby. But three points on the board I suppose. Onwards and upwards.
  2. Pretty tough. Might have to be McCormack.
  3. Can I vote for the back four?
  4. Kewell has got his team performing above media expectations. People just sticking the boots because it's him.
  5. Loved except one thing irked me. No one pulled up your guest when he claimed Aaron Mooy is the only good number 10 we've had in the club's history. Fred was amongst the best player's in the league in our second season. It was him and Madaschi that delivered us our first ever finals campaign in that amazing run we had. I'm fairly sure he even won the Alex Tobin medal that year.
  6. The argument isn't that an armed citizenry would be able to beat any military in conflict. I don't think that's ever been true. But an armed citizenry will be able to do enough damage and any conflict would be so bloody that it's sufficient to act as an effective deterrent to tyranny. North Korea haven't been developing nuclear weaponry for decades because they think they'll win armed conflict. The regime is simply self interested and nuclear capability is a great deterrent for the kind foreign intervention undertaken by the US in the middle east. Plus people tend to treat you with a bit more respect when you have such capabilities. It's the same thing on a different scale. I'm just a humble 62 year old Camel milker.
  7. What? I was responding to your "other methods take longer so he would've thought it through" argument. Defending yourself from the state is enough of a reason to own a gun imo. I'm pretty sure that gun violence just dropped off at the same rate it already was and the laws didn't have any great effect on crime from a purely statistical significant stand point. Could be wrong it's been a while since I read up on this stuff.
  8. The bloke emassed an arsenal, drove hours and hired out a hotel room. I'm pretty sure he spent some time thinking through what he was going to do.
  9. This has gone to a whole new level. So many people wandering around with Richmond merch on. The absoulte worse thing happened when I was stuck in traffic and a bloke in a banged up magna had a tigers scarf in the back window and was just pumping the Richmond theme song on repeat with all the windows down. Kill me.
  10. Don't know. Was confirmed delivered a week ago but I never saw it. I reckon it was too thick to fit in my mail slot so they left it on top and the cunt who drives a ute with a victory sticker across the road probably binned it. Theory I'm going with anyway.
  11. Give it to the homeless. They'll never beg again
  12. TTIM: Nihilists. What a depressing waste of time that is. It's almost never "nothing matters, I'll do whatever I want". What usually happens instead is "Nothing matters, so I'll a be mopey cunt and do nothing but bitch". Which gets people to the ironic position of living meaningless lives only because they think life is meaningless. Another TTIM is how nihilism seems to be a growing trend, which is probably why Rick & Morty is so popular. I don't think it's a coincidence that this rise has coincided with a growing depression epidemic. I was raised without religion but I really fear the godless society we're becoming. That's if Islam doesn't take over to fill the moral void.
  13. 2016 - Dogs Fairytale 2017 - Tiges Fairytale 2018 - Dees Fairytale confirmed. P.S. never speak ill of lord bucks.
  14. Well I've seen about 50 people across my social medias celebrate this flag who I never knew were Richmond supporters until now.
  15. So this bloke takes us to nine foreigners on the books. Well played CFG.
  16. The club outsources memberships to sportsubs who are based in Adelaide, so I'm not really sure why everyone is posting their proximity to CFA and the CBD.

    TV Series

    Wow the last four episodes of Bojack really pulled that whole season together. It's probably my favorite season now. Hits me in the feels so good. Keen for Bojack and Diane to get it on next season.
  18. What on earth do you animals do with the stem after you're done cutting off all the stalks?
  19. This. Post lapel pin pics now please.

    TV Series

    Catching up on my Netflix originals atm. House of cards is in the toilet. Horrible season for a series that has been going downhill since season 2. Just a ridiculous convoluted mess. 4/10. Half way through the new Bojack. Pretty meh. Not into this daughter angle and the family theme that's running through bojack's story. Feels too contrived. I'm finding Todd less likeable as well for some reason. The Mr. PB campaign is fun though. 6.5/10. I hope stranger things is good. Gonna watch the new F is for family after I'm done with bojack.
