Lia in particular should be a fan favourite, he has flourished under Merrick, seems a nice guy, and is or only playing foundation player! That alone should get respect.

One your a scape goat though it appears that you can have no positive contribution from that point onwards.

I get where you are coming from but mr. nice guy cuts no ice with me. If a player plays well and is good enough OK, but if not then he has to cop the flak like everyone else.

Not overly convinced he's a nice guy.

I like this forum because for the most part you can say what you want. Sure we all say things we later regret but that comes from the passion we have towards the subject concerned. There are some threads that dont interest me so I skip them. 

For the surprising number of users and considering the wide variety of personalities, i think this place is great. Even those that i don't agree with most of the time, every now and then they come out with something that i do agree with.

We have a place on here to get our thoughts across and it is fun for the most part. Also the elite squad are pretty tolerant, i am surprised they have not banned a few more than they have for a few weeks. Probably myself for starters. Not that I am asking them to now.

wow, just read back over the match thread. Yeh I can see what you mean- the level of expletive and reaction was high and the level of incisive  or funny observations were low. 

But having said that:

there were two things people were clearly not impressed with 1) The commentator and 2) The ref.

Also factor in that Hindmarsh has been the graveyard of our dreams for many many years, and we started out leading and ultimately lost in the last minute. Enormous frustration levels.

Perhaps some people have decamped from the match thread to twitter only?

I know it's a little brutal but why doesnt every forum member write one name down on this thread that they hate and they want gone forever?. Ar the end of one week the top five rating baddies get banned/deactivated?

If its a choice of my namesake or 5 baddies, there is no choice at all.

My fingers are itching.

No such thing as free lunch. Everybody accepts you do not suffer fools gladly. On the other hand, one can learn a thing or two about football analysis by reading your posts. A good forum needs a variety of members, and acceptance of that variety. I learned to tune out from things of no interest.

One of the positive aspects of this forum (that other posters did not mention) - we are surprisingly well educated and literate, compared to some sites (esp across the ditch). 

Either we truly lift ourselves to a new level when logging in to YF, or we are all a bunch of eurosnobs (like, we even spell things correctly).

I think that's in part cause of moderation. No text speak. No calling players out without reason. The rules are generally adhered to save a thread/argument here or there and that makes it a better place. Having seen the RBB and Tard forum, both those places typify why Australians are thought of as rather stupid creatures for the most part.

There is one forum I read on a different topic that is basically a free for all based on the 'free speech' principle and that place is the wild west of forums. Anything logical just goes out the window straight away.

Hair extensions and hairpieces really can help to improve the looking of people and help to change them a lot. Hair extensions and hairpieces if choosing the right type and right style of hair wigs for you, of course that you will look and become more and more attractive and also buy cheap hair wigs now is easy as you can just get the ideal style that you want online at online shops now. I have just buy me a long curly hair and it is perfect.
