    Have some empathy and apologie at once.
    Have several more scotches at once please Bangalore. Firstly, I don't know why the anger is directed at 09183305 - its me you should be angry at. He was simply correcting my mistake.

    And on that matter - all I'll say is I feel no reason to have any empathy for a man that chose to do that to his wife. That is my opinion only, and you are welcome to hold a different one, but get off your holy horse and stop trying to shove your 'on high' opinion down the throat of anyone else.

    As for 'thriving middle class families' what bracket precisely does a vastly overpaid footballer sit in? He certainly isn't on struggle street.

      Glad do know you have lived a life without error. Have you lived a life like Wayne. Have some empathy.

        If we beat the Giants tomorrow I reckon we can have the Cats for dinner! They looked rubbish.

          Go to bed Bangalore. You are clearly past the point of 'happy drunk' BS and now into 'most holy one' BS.

          Carey got caught @@@@ing another players wife, by the player in question at a birthday party. That must be up there with the most unholiest of sins in the footy world lol - I don't think anyone doing that in any circumstance (where it is not a circumstance where everyone is okay wiht the arrangement) deserves any empathy.

          I quite like Carey as an analyst and a commentator, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have a strong sense of 'scum' about him.

          And while he had a great footy career and whatever else, I'm not so what is so extraordinary about his life. Plenty of people achieve plenty of things in life without it needing to be in the headlines to make their life 'worthwhile'.

          Shame Victoria isn't going to be available so that either us or the Plastics can finish them off next week at Geelong (assuming thats where a final would be played of course). They look slow and cooked tonight, and I didn't even think Port were particularly impressive to be honest.

          Huge opportunity for whoever wins tomorrow to make a prelim.

            hahaha

            Such a troll. Wayne is a scumbag and there is no way he should be near the prestige of a tv position.

            Wayne Carey domestic violence: Let's keep talking.
            He ate more cheese, than time allowed

              I might have some more scotches.

              Have you had to deal with the heartache to which young Gary has had to deal with?

              I never have. I’ve got a healthy thriving boy to which
              I’m grateful. The Gary story looks conflicted, but I’ll never judge a human being who has been through what he’s been through. Unless you have walked in Garry’s shoes you are in no position to judge his choices. Empathy please.

                I'm surprised that they didn't really try to switch the ball and play a more expansive field. Instead, they just kept on trying to go through Port and kept on getting beaten up.

                  Ports pressure was unreal. If we do that tomorrow and next week, and we do it very well, bring it on.

                      You can shove your empathy up whatever arsehole you think deserves it.

                      I'll save mine for people that I consider actually deserve it.

                      And in my book Gary and Wayne do not. They made their beds, they can lie in them.

                      Geelong just can't handle that sort of pressure. Same as what we did to them in 2016 in that prelim.

                      They are getting older, older, older. Father time is ticking - they do an amazing job to stay up and about year after year, but the empire built on interesting salary cap management and old home recruitment will surely come home to roost sooner rather than later.

                        I was impressed with Port's pressure game tonight, but some of their ball movement could have been better. And I think Geelong will need plenty of recovery time next week. Just a shame that they'll have an extra day.

                          What I’ll never understand about Gary Rohan and chicks is he’s a ranga. I mean, what’s the attraction?

                            I've been stuck in a world all year where I've never thought Port have looked amazing or unbeatable (i.e. putting on the performance of a premiership team). But maybe they'll peak at the right time - as you say some of their ball movement could have been a lot better, and geelong played right into their hands in the first half. But with a home prelim to come (well maybe a home prelim - who knows), you'd have to fancy them to be there on the final day more likely than not.

                              We are talking about Gary.

                              He’s been through circumstance that I can’t comprehend the pain. You are a good man MCS. Imagine his pain and imagine what that can do to a person. Empathy!!!
