2017.    62360.  86 pts

"Like".  A pet hate of mine is this sort of thing.  What does undeserving mean etc... please define it, explain it and we can go from there.  I used to get in trouble on facebook from time to time for asking about sources for 'facts'.  They generally aren't backed up (climate change denial)

The only thing I would add for completeness is Anzac Day, the brief history of the night game on the 24th (Melb v Haw?) and Dreamtime.  They may not have mentioned it but it shows where the opener sits over all the marquee games.  Wait until both Richmond and Carlton are good at the same time!

Lyon's a flog but for fucks sake, I am getting mighty sick of Timmy fucking Watson!

Every channel 7 sports report opens with EFC bias - it is so pathetic.  Then you have the HS and Robbo, 3-4 articles on EFC just today - wtf, they didn't even make the finals, did they?!

Keep in mind those rd1 crowds are on a school night.

Keep in mind, it's "the big stage"...!!

When we're back in the finals picture all of our games will be blockbusters.

This latest effort is nothing more than a tactical counter attack for the calls last season to have them kiboshed from the Anzac Day. They'll use this Good Friday game as a loss leader to defend the bigger prize. If the Good Friday schedule or the Cheats turn out to be spuds they argue for to surrender Good Friday but retain Anzac Day.

But for other clubs the bigger risk is if by chance the Good Friday schedule is a success, the Cheats have a history of locking these things in long term and good luck getting your share because the AFL Board, AFL Broadcaster and AFL Executive is dominated by CheatsFC benefactors! The word I have is that if they again fail to fill Etihad on Good Friday that will trigger Norp getting the ar5e for it to become a CheatsFC / Handbaggers event. Norp already have the blame allocated to them, despite how quickly the CheatsFC fans bailed last season when they turned sour!

The source of this rumor has been right on the money from day one, so I'm confident of the AFL's long term intent is not a fiction.

That's the problem having a daily program on the electric wireless when things are quiet, you have to make up sh1te to have something to talk about and hopefully make it polarising enough to get people talking and boost the ratings.

Great work, TC. See, broadcasters, research aint that difficult. Now you bone-heads should send TC a research fee for doing your work for you, you lazy pr1cks. $550 seems fair... send 'em your bank account details, TC.
