Blah-Blah Bar / Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading)
Last post by Gointocarlton -Biden and Trump make any of our former and current PMs look like geniuses.To be clear, I couldn't give a flying fark about the USA, hate the joint, but for me Biden is 1000 times more embarrassing than Trump.
As Principal LODS pointed out, as soon as one of our leaders is on the nose, we give them the flick. No so in the US system... as much as most thinking Yanks might think neither is any good, they're stuck with them. Even if one of them is a proven crook and is a candidate, that party and its supporters make excuses and stick by them. What a farce.

I don't think they're in the same league.
Not even close.
And we have a much easier task getting rid of those that don't measure up (if their party doesn't get them first.)
The situation in America is that both Biden and Trump are in with a chance.
And the only reason they're in with a chance... is because of who they're running against.

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: AFL Rd 10 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Sydney
Last post by Baggers -Far be it from me to stick up for Fantasia, but its games like this one which is the reason we picked him up.
A senior body, with AFL experience, with the smarts to turn a game quickly against quality opposition.
If he ever wants to justify his position, its tonight under the above (finals like) conditions.
If we were outside of the top 8, then 100% you play the kid.....but thats not where we are as a team right now.
Tend to agree. He went back to the Magoos and regained some touch in the midfield. But this would have to be his last chance. Perhaps the smaller ground will help him... goodness knows he needs all the help he can get, going by his senior form to date!

Last post by kruddler -Agree LP. Better to play a young developing player than Fantasia. He has had enough chances and shown zip.

Last post by ElwoodBlues1 -We resurrected Fantasia's career when all and sundry reckoned he was kaputt. Time to pay the rent or feck off. It grinds my gears to watch blokes going at half rat power when there's always kids crying out for opportunity.Orazio spent the second half of last season in the SANFL and Port played Jed MCEntee ahead of him as a small pressure forward and he didnt exactly light it up imo so you have to ask why wasnt Fantasia played when he appeared fit and had some good games where he kicked goals and had decent stats.
Even if you can't get a kick, you can still lay tackles and put on blocks. Don't just stand there DO SOMETHING
