Who cares ffs? The ass essment committee here at the Flux Report know and love him simply as Nosher. (As does Fred Bassat, our Pres'.)
And so, we have a very special treat for all you Saintsationalists. You asked for it. We are now delivering. (Well, one of those last two sentences is fairly accurate. )
Nosher wrote: ↑Mon 28 Feb 2022 1:17pm So Saintsationalists, what have we seen so far in the pre-season ffs?
Well, since the 2021 mid season daft we've gained...
The Sharman. Ready to go. f****** star.
Carl. Our rucking future. Not ready yet, but if needed, wouldn't disgrace himself.
NWAeonM. No rush. Will carve up defences with his kicking inside 50 in a couple of years.
Owens Ready to go. When this daft is redone in hindsight, he'll be top 10.
Winhager Ready to go.
Adams. Our future CHB.
Peris. Who knows? Lacks size, but, has talent.
Kyle. Who knows? Lacks size, but, has talent.
And hopefully also...
Hayes Ready to go.
Leinert. Ready to go.
And all that with only the one draft pick inside the top 50. f****** incredible result!
The hindsight review or our 2021 drafting will highlight this as the year turned our list around... big time.
So big f****** tick there.
The Intraclub:
Oh ffs!!! These games always pretty neatly encapsulate our club. Basically, even when we win, we still manage to lose.
And one thing noticed, and I fear it's going be even more f****** 'prominent' in the Carlscum game, is the continual burning of team mates. (The Sharman passing-off to NWAeonM being a notable exception. )
Speaking of The Sharman, or is it The Candyman?
f*** that was worth the watch.
Nosher's report on the Carlscum game has been delayed as Nosh was called away suddenly to eastern Europe to do some 'negotiating'.
Anyway, here's Nosher's provisional Rd 1 team.
Errrrr, thanks for that Nosh. Now to our posts of the week sectionsNosher wrote: ↑Mon 28 Feb 2022 1:17pm Round 1 team (assuming all players named are fit).

At half-time I said to my daughter that Clarke Kent should never play another senior game again, so poor was his disposal. It wasn't just his dinky little kicks without purpose but the laziness of them that even he seemed to acknowledge.
FB: Paton, Doogie, Wilkie
HB: Sinkers, Battle, Jimmy the Cat

HF: The Sharman, The Marshall, Members,
FF: Gresh, Joe King, Missy

Emerg: Two of... Seb/Highmore/Clarke/Wood/the Butler/Long, Hayes
Notes:
- When interviewed during our intra-match Gears said that after 6 months his shoulder still isn't right. Ffs, hat will save the selectors an embarrassing selection headache till we've had time to accumulate some injuries.
- And ffs Headless Chook must play wing! It's a waste of his talents. And ffs!!! You don't pay $800k a season for a HBFer!!! Ffs!!!
- MacKenzie simply-deserves-a-game ahead of (possibly) more credentialed team mates. He f****** starts for mine.
- Gresh and Missy to also rotate onto the ball.
- Steele to rest forward - he's a marking threat.
- We don't need to name Campbell as an emergency, as we have Paddy and the Marshall to ruck, and plenty of bloke who could pinch hit if really needed.
- Clark's pre-sesaon has been disappointing to date.
- As has Seb's. Seb needs to really concentrate on his delivery ffs!!! He did so previously, and won a B&F. And also do what was (apparently) asked of him last year, and modify his on-filed role to a more negating one. (He did that previously on Dangermouse, and scored 3 Brownlow votes.) And it would really help Seb's cause if he handballed more, and kicked less. And that will require help from his mates. They need to pull the finger out and run from behind to receive the handball ffs!!!
- That's one hellova' forward line we now have. (And can add The Butler and/or Long/ and/or Wood rotating through.) Now all we have to do is get the thing down there reasonably often , and try to kick it not too much to the advantage of the opposition defenders. Oh, and that would be helped no end if our marking forwards would bloody well get-some-bloody-separation-between-each-bloody-other ffs!!!
The Saynta Girls!

Have to say though, as Slim Perkins lined up that sitter at the death, the gushing commentators were already calling it for the Daughters of Beaches. Softc**ks! We all know that the game ain't over till the fat lady sings ffs! And the fat lady didn't get to sing this time, because she missed her shot on goal. slim pushed her shot wide to the fat side, and the Saynta girls finally get their first win. Now the circumstances of how could really be something to chew over. But I'll swallow that one every f****** time. Big fan of that sorta' thing. Our girls may have endured a very lean year, but they stuck fat. And holy cow, how about those celebrations! Ffs! They were having a whale of a time. f****** humongous stuff!
Meanwhile, the Daughters of Beaches could be facing massive cap problems. No, not the salary type. (We all know that the f****** AFLFFS takes care of those things for them. ) Nor the celery type either............pretty f****** obviously.
I've been told that after viewing footage of the game, the AFLFFS is now considering introducing a food cap! And that could see three of their list grazing on up to 85% of the new cap. The other alternative being looked at is for the AFL to mandate that the broadcasters only use their new ultra-wide lenses for Daughters of Beaches games.
But back to the Saynta girls team. I've been told that the club is about to announce a new major sponsor.
One of the quickest 'dawnings' one would ever see post of the week:

Pissed off about this! Post of the week:
What a load of crap!!!! That was actually one of his main issues... getting from contest to contest. The opposition knew that, and could exploit it.http://saintsational.net/viewtopic.php? ... 1#p1938721
The hard-running midfielder met with Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin five days after the Demons had claimed a breakthrough premiership.
And Dunstan's sudden improved form last year... why did it take him 7 seasons to pull the finger out ,and get fitter, and put a bit more thought into his disposal????
Noticeably though, his stellar form was starting to taper off again in his last few games.
Wanted us to give him a send off game against the Purple Puke. In hindsight, playing Bytel was a much better move. That bloke is the future, and has a higher upside than Dunstan ever did. And Bytel ended up playing well, which would have boosted his confidence.
And what's Dunstan whinging about anyway? He had seven years on a multi-hundred thousand dollar wage. How come he still needs to work??? Spoke to Vaas about this, and he wanted to know why doesn't Dunstan have a property and/or share portfolio to live off? Coz that's what Vaas does with his 'earnings'.
Dunstan should shut the shyte up! He has only himself to blame. And he should be bloody grateful that Vaas hasn't paid him a little 'courtesy call' too.

Oh great Apparitional One, we love you. But. Here on the Fluxed Up Report we are absolutely dedicated to going out of our way to misquote people.
So where is the recognition for effort????
What have they been doing with little/no footy to occupy themselves with during the off-season filler posts:
Desertsaint's Swiss Miss(us) has been on the lookout for his next car.
But DS has become CS (Coastal Saint) and so he needs something a bit more 'appropriate' to get him to the white shoe BBQs on the canal estates.
At the same time Capt CQ has been furiously paddling his Maori war canoe on a very special pilgrimage.
Covid is raging.
Flood waters are raging.
That psycho Vlad the Impaler raging.
But Dragstar is chilling.
He's safely bunkered down at his secret country retreat, and is keeping the family entertained during these challenging times.
Onya Dragstar. And here's you're reward.
And Loris. Oh Loris! Still ruthless!.
Thoughts, Rodger? <swoon>
Thoughts, merry and gay Putin people...?
Thoughts, Saintsationalists...?
- Aeon.
