Tough game against the tigers this week methinks....
We don't forget.

The Pope was today knocked down at the start of Christmas mass by a woman who hopped over the barriers. The woman was said to be, "Mentally unstable."
Which is probably why she went unnoticed among a crowd of Christians.

We? You must be confident. Remember, "us" in victory, "them" in defeat.
And didn't Essendon have a very un-PC nickname?
The Bombers... (gained after WW2, I suspect). Don't know if that's the one you meant, not very un-PC to me...
Wouldn't want to give a US sports team that moniker at the moment...
And no, not particularly confident, I consider Friday night's Cats vs Bombers match a very 50-50 proposition, given that both teams are undefeated at this stage in the season...

I was thinking of "The blood stained n*****s", which was a reference to the team strip. It was an unofficial nickname. I'm perturbed to read that club officialdom is (apparently) trying its best to write it out of history completely. Orwell would have understood.

But we are still only one game away from the finals!
