Re: The casual boast thread

David King said two weeks ago that we were done as contenders this year. He's a reactionary goon.

On what platform did he say that?

I didn't know that we'd met.

We met at the Yarraville nets one dark and gloomy night. Sorry about knocking you out Td.

Re: The casual boast thread

At least 6,565 days until you might win one
In Head to Head Finals, We lead 3-1
First team since 1956 to not kick a goal in the second half of a final
Your ‘gun’ KPF had no kicks
Couldn’t stop an 8 goal run
Kicked 4 goals in a cut throat final, 2 directly from 50m penalties
Of all four finals this week, you lost by the highest margin
You managed not to burn through all your interchanges before the end of the game
You desperately wanted Dunkley but couldn’t get him
Fantasia, Daniher & Dunkley still playing finals. You’re not
You thought Stringer was your saviour. Cute.
But thanks for your help in getting Richards & Schache
The Windy Hill bowls club kicked your ass, so you are in Tulla
TB4, ASADA, WADA
Just picks 11, 48 & 54 to keep rebuilding
You are no closer to your next finals win, than from your last. Wright, Draper, Smith et al aren’t going to lift you a level
Irish players walked out McKenna & McQuillan
Zaharakis, Hooker, Ambrose gone at a minimum. Hurley dead man walking
All the best with winning trade week
