    This is not exactly a great human quality to have.
    Actually its refreshing to see, society has gone too far the other way and become too precious

      I'll tell that to my wife the next time she asks "does this dress make me look fat"?

        Wow... a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend.
        So you know him well then?

        He's STILL a tosser, whether you are related or not.
        Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
        Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

          They didn't really target him, they were physical from the bounce against all swans and he was tackled in the first minute by T.Mitchell and thrown away in the tackle and unfortunately into another hawks players knee.

            Courtesy is dateless. Probably in both senses.
            He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

              100% spot on.

              Good on Jeff for adding a bit of spice to things.

                  Jeffs comments arent really that controversial and the type of thing that any of us would make when talking footy with our friends or on this forum.

                  In my view Mitchell gets a lot of cheap possessions around the back of players.

                  Im not so sure that its going to be reported in the media but if it was , would I be refreshingly honest , controversial or just another footy fan giving an opinion.

                    On the contrary, the spread of “social” media has caused a preponderance of incivility to downright abuse to become common in contemporary discourse.

                    Courtesy is timeless, never dateless.

                      Shame. He speaks highly of you.

                            Relative to normal?
                            No. It doesn't.

                              Has Mrs Beerman bought a new dress already for the Grand Final dinner ?
                              She will look amazing in anything .
                              Tell her not to worry .
