Daddy Diles is a vageen though; liability. Turf the fucker out already💡🙏🏼

Not raunchy per se but if you’re talking about un-PC comedy in general, Scary Movie 6 comes out in a few months’ time

It’s a good yarn but a fucken WEIRD movie; its tonal-inconsistency has a fair bit to do w/that. Considering it’s by the director of Boogie Nights, that was most likely the intention.

How do you lick a movie❓😉

Since less than 24hrs ago? Bc the vast majority of ‘em have vocally been all “State of Origin died w/Ted Whitten” “I don’t want my club’s best players getting injured while playing in this sh1t” etcetera, over the past 25+ years💡

It’s the only legitimate representative play in that code, so the AFL has a responsibility to re-embrace it. I’m just not convinced that they intend to; certainly not to the extent even I’d like to see.

For the life of me I fail to see any logic whatsoever in the licence-fee having to be THAT much👎🏼

This for the ALM or a league-format Championship?

Only 1K❓ They’d number a fair bit more that by now, surely..

We're not all like that though.

As if they honestly gave a fuck either way.

It won't, and that's the saving grace in all this. Imagine if the AFL used the funds for this to bail out metro/rural clubs and leagues instead..and in the case of VIC reintroduce pro-rel to the VFL - of course that would make too much sense, but whatevz.

That being said, the NFL playing matches o/s is a much-more-accurate analogy(even though most of the rest of the world has actually heard of gridiron, as opposed to the aerial-pingpong)

FWIW, that specific mindset isn't as pervasive across Aussie Rules-fandom now as it was back in the '90s-early '00s; don't get me wrong, there are still some that do buy into it(not least of all the code's actual admin.) but for the most part they've pretty much let that go. Driving the rugbys...

So you aren’t one of the pre-2010 turncoats❓😉

He needed to be called out on his BS, so how he takes it is wholly his prerogative. It’s just disheartening that someone who’s supposedly followed the game here for even as long as he has still places blasé/blind trust in the FFA/APL, despite all the evidence to indicate he shouldn’t👎🏼 Mind...

But as evidenced by takes such as his, it CAN matter if despite having followed it for ‘long enough’, one still falls prey to prioritising the short-term commercialism-aspect(as he’s clearly done by saying what he did) over playing the long-game that puts the sport and its constituent parts...

TBF I was surprised to learn he got into the game back in 2001..bc I assumed he was an even-more-recent convert than that

I can’t be stuffed watching the whole thing; could you timestamp when precisely he says it? Disappointing take to hear from him😔

Fair enough!
