    The worst ideas of AFL season 2016

    http://titusoreily.com/the-worst-ide...l-season-2016/

    Of interest to Dogs fans

    Calling for Tom Boyd to take a pay cut

    Awks.
    It's what you'd expect from Titus with possibly my favourite being

    Playing in China

    In an attempt to goad China into war with Australia, the AFL will send Port Adelaide and the Gold Coast to Shanghai in round eight.

    "Koch has said Port Adelaide need to have new revenue streams to survive and he’s probably right, given South Australia doesn’t have an economy anymore, now that the quince paste boom is over."

    Pretty funny.

    Titus is a ripper.

    I love that every other thing that gets a mention gets a whole paragraph to itself, but for Boyd he throws out half a word and moves on.

    Great read, the 17-5 fixture and referencing BASEketball was nicely done

    Titus would have bagged Tom Boyd 6-8 times over the past couple of years.

    I took the awkward comment to reflect this. He did a piece on asking Boyd to take a paycut being unAustralian because getting paid to do nothing is a norm here.

    I took it that he was potting himself a bit also - part of what made it awkward.
