Anyone noticed this nong's alter ego's Footy Tips every Friday in the Hun?

Always picks against Richmond (that part is clever at least) but have you noticed the margins?
Doesn't matter who we are playing the margins are generally something like:
Melbourne by 99 points
Port by 213
Ess by 149 or similar.

Is this Collingscum flog funny?

Was he old enough to be scarred by 1980? Only puts these ridiculous margins on the Richmond game.
Generally speaking we have been competitive in most of the games (except Carl and maybe Bulldogs).

I know he's only hamming up the Comedy but do we deserve this ridicule?

this is exactly reaction he wants and its called publicity.
 
I wonder how much longer this Strauchnie act will last. I know some Scumwood supporters who are sick and tired of this idiot.

I thought it was a funny gag, but must admit its looking very tired this season
 
Let me tell you a true story about this buffoon.

2 years ago he was offered a drive in the celebrity race at the grand prix in one of the little Fiat 500's.

On the first practice day at Sandown he was giving the car a hammering down the main straight (which is OK) and as he approached the 90 degree turn at the end of the straight, he decided he would see what happened when he changed from 6th gear straight into 2nd gear. At about 160kmh.

The car goes bang. Big Bang actually. Car destroyed.

Then on the Thursday of the Grand Prix he tries the same thing at Albert Park. Another car destroyed.

So on race day he arrives - all cheesy smiles for the cameras (strauchinies here boys and girls) - and asks where his next car is.

He was pulled aside by the powers that be and very firmly given a choice of not competing at all, or competing and staying at the back of the field, not overtaking anyone and stay in top gear all the way.

He chose to compete and later on national tv announced that these little Fiats are not very strong. They break down a lot. His broke down twice. And by the way they are very slow.

It will be a long long time B4 this buffoon gets given another car for a fun drive. Manufacturers spend many millions on promotion, and they take on board the risk of accidents. But they will not tolerate stupidity.

This story may help explain why there was no celebrity race at this years GP.

It was funny but it's going nowhere fast. The only funny blokes on screen nowadays are Mick Molloy and Dave Hughes.

I think it was axed because of the cost.

Agreed.
However the mechanical damage deliberately inflicted on some of the cars played a big role.
Trust me on this.
I have one of the gp cars as my daily driver.

Sorry I meant the cost of maintaining and replacing the cars. I'm positive I heard that somewhere.
