God. Do some of you actually support the club and players?

Piss weak in my opinion
Weren't you the one who said Billings was the only one in our team who can hit a target?

if so that sounds like you were potting 21 players in one foul swoop.
The correct expression is "fell" swoop, not "foul" swoop..........
You idiot. You missed this when you googled.

" That lack of understanding of the words in the phrase is undoubtedly the reason that this is often misspelled, for example, 'at one fail swoop', or even, with more justification as it might be thought to relate to birds, 'one fowl swoop'. It isn't difficult to also find examples of 'one foul swoop'. "
Are you calling me an idiot? Well let me tell you that the English language pre-dates Google, which I did not use. And if you were capable of finding this on Google, you would have realised if you had read and comprehended that the examples you quote are listed as incorrect spellings of the phrase. The use of the word "fell" in this context dates back to the 13th century. Try using Google to find out want it means. Idiot......
The fact that you are asking if i called you an idiot or not, after i stated right from the start that you are an idiot, hjas just confirmed to me and all and sundry that you are an idiot.

:lol: Sorry dyslexia
You are probably not wordly enough to realise that " foul swoop " is spelt , pronounced in a few different ways.
Any way, move on, boring.

whoa there with the "all and sundry mate."......you are just making it worse.... ...........at least have the good grace to admit your mistake and then move on......


ps....i think you mean "worldly" too....but hey....wordly is funny..... :wink:

not a chance in hell......he signed a three year contract end of last season.......and he has said he isn't going anywhere....his game today was okay
Do you think so?

In 3 quarters on him, Boomer had 2 goals, 2 goal assists, and who knows how many score involvements
Swap Boomer and Joeys jumpers and tell me how it would have turned out. Boomer is King front runner in a team of front runners. Where was Boomer by the way when Joey was collecting his 25? Joey was ok.
I seem to remember a game, round 2 2010, when we thumped the front runners and Boomer had a massive 4 touches on Jonsey. Joey had a lazy 35. Amazing what happens when your side is dominant.

It's not the ultimate glory if you change teams and win a flag with another team in the last year of your career. It means nothing. Ive done it and i barely give that Premiership another thought, whereas my team mates who were all in it for the long haul are still over the moon about it.
At least you played in a premiership. It's better than the alternative. I did it also and as much as I wanted to win one with the club I played with for 12 seasons, I'm glad I got to experience the ultimate. Ask Luke Ball if he regrets his premiership with the filth. I feel sorry for you that playing in a premiership, no matter where, means so little to you. I think you would be the exception.

I didn't say i regret it.

It was a sub district cricket final.

Heads up douchebag. If you could read or write beyond a grade three standard, you would have noticed that any reference on the internet to any other spellings, lists the variations and then highlights that they are incorrect. Just because you can find something on the internet, doesn't make it correct - or do you believe that Kylie Minogue is to pregnant to an alien because you read it on the interwebs??

d**khead.

Dal Santo was under contract until him and the club activated a technical clause in his contract which made him a "free agent". Montagna's problem is that he is really an outside player and when the team is struggling to win the footy and don't have good passing skills he gets starved of the ball and shut down by the oppo. I can't see it getting any easier from him next year.

Dal explained from his position under questioning on Hutchy's favourite topic- ' how to denigrate the saints"

about halfway through the discussion is on the saints-- end of the 10 min is dal on his situation

So frickin' soft Joey. A real man would have cut the bad leg off and played on the good one.
