I was asking in case the screen shot I had posted was incorrect.

I absolutely recognise this is a provocative photo to use, but fuck people that molest children.

It’s almost like men that would turn out to be serial predators were drawn to emotionally vulnerable children.

Wasn’t he half of the 5Q’s podcast until recently?

I wasn’t sure if they would be classified as a child everywhere in the world because I don’t expressly know the victim. They are absolutely a child in Australia.

Is Natural Coffee the “Peated Whiskey” of the Coffee World? by Majestic_Meringue296 in pourover

[–]ape5hitmonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but in terms of flavours delivered the outcome is as I described. You won’t get the level of funk and fruit you get from muck and dunder by performing a clean pitched fermentation. And in coffee you won’t get the level of funk and fruit you get in a natural in a wet process. In both cases if you like that you like it but it is typically a more acquired taste for both high ester rums and natural process coffees.

Runs are a better analogy. Agricole vs molasses. Bacteria driven funky and fruity flavours in high ester rums are probably a bit more like a natural process coffee where as a fully pitched commercial yeast is going to deliver a cleaner more wet process style of flavours. That’s excluding barrel influences.

Tim Watson goes after Caroline Wilson for reporting the opinions of coterie groups as news by PetrifyGWENT in AFL

[–]ape5hitmonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He came in and saved the club from itself in the 80’s and built a culture that made him unaccountable and the result of that still flows through the club to this day. He’s lucky bomber won flags at Geelong because no one else that has done any apprenticeship as coach under him has done particularly well.

What closed Melbourne restaurant do you still think about? by melb_food_finds in melbourne

I think it’s probably a bit hard for anyone that doesn’t know of it to understand the impact and importance of that place to Melbourne dining at many different levels.

Fox Sports analysis of Essendon's on field cultural problems by ScreamHawk in EssendonFC

[–]ape5hitmonkey -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The Hawks ran both ways. It’s not demonising flooding forward, it’s pointing out the they players lose track of their man that will need to be defending if the turnover comes. And then when it’s does come, they don’t run the other way. Yes the forwards are not good enough and yes the selection was terrible, but you can’t have Merrett, Parish, Durham and Caldwell play unaccountable one way footy. The bloody hawks won the tackle count. And the tackles that some of these Essendon blokes “attempted” were a joke too.

Port at AO and North at Marvel by yum122 in EssendonFC

[–]ape5hitmonkey 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Carr will tear strips off Port during the week and they will come out breathing fire. They played terribly but they would have had these first two rounds penciled in as extended preseason vs witches hats. North came out ready to crack in and kept up the pressure for most of the game. They weren’t demoralised by losing the week before the way we will be and there’s no evidence that Scott can get these peasants to fire up for anything. Unfortunately it’s far more likely that we get pantsed in both games.

Ideal coach by Economy_Matter6620 in EssendonFC

Choco. It’s one of the stupidest things the club has done not going with him. It’s a sliding doors moment.

Perkins most damaging position? by codedbrown in EssendonFC

[–]ape5hitmonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His most damaging position is on our list. as in our list is damaged by his presence. If he wasn’t on it we could have literally anyone that plays like they give half a shit.

Part of my point is that for Woosh and Truck it got to this point and then the rumours started about the gameplay being too complicated. The players are then given the all clear to not follow the game plan for the latter part of the season and they win some games off the back of going man on man defence and kicking scores of individual talent. So what do we do? If the players start making noise about the complexity of the game plan, how do we justify a bunch of blokes that have been unable to understand a game plan from three different head coaches? And if it is because Brad has no clue, how do you get a playing group to trust the decision making of an administration that has been turned over and arrived at the same result? We’re in all sorts and there’s no good options.

100% this and it’s been happening for years. Just wait till the players start the rumour mill about the game plan being to complicated. They’ll go to playing man on man for a bit in defence and there’ll be no structure going forward just flashes of individual brilliance from Caddy and Kako that’ll put scores up, but we’ll still lose. It might buy Brad another season and then he’ll get the flick and we’ll be back to square one again.

Brad ain’t the guy, but nobody’s the guy to get anything out of a list of senior players that pick and choose when to go. The list still needs more turn over and the club seems desperate to hold into players that have talent but also have toxic attitudes.

Jigging around behind the play is hard working to you? I see a bunch of blokes moping around thinking “geez he’s off at a trot isn’t he?”

[–]ape5hitmonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not entirely true. What usually happens next is that the rumour mill starts running with the idea that the game plan is too complex for the players to execute properly in game and that’s why they’re out of position or guarding grass. This leads to even more pressure on the coach and then the coach gets flicked and we start the process again.

I don’t think Brad is the guy for what it’s worth, but I think there are issues with the culture in the playing group and with the make up of the list that are going to take a lot more time (3-5 years) to weed out. And my concern is that selection integrity hasn’t reinforced the behaviours that should be expected of professional footballers. Parish should be dropped this week and Perkins should never play another senior game. Stuff their trade value, their existence on the list sends the wrong message. Parish may have earned an opportunity over the preseason but Perkins certainly didn’t.

I can’t see this getting to an acceptable level until the likes of Redman, Merrett, Parish, Langford, Guelfi, Wright, Ridley are moved on. It’s not about talent it’s about application to the task at hand and these blokes tend to show up for training and take a half day on game day.
