Conceived in February 2020. After ‘slice of cheese’ perhaps Paul Hunt’s 17th most profound coinage. Born to expose the hypocrisy of the savers of Footscray Park
"This is absolutely phenomenal" 🤯
Following the Soccer Ashes' re-discovery for the first time in 70 years, we surprised historians @TrevorTho and @IanSyson with the trophy… and their reactions were priceless 🥹

I’ve sat in the stand as a fan. I’ve sat in the studio as a pundit. I’ve watched in the pub tonight with my mates and you’re getting it all wrong VAR. It’s not what you told us.
@bethanyshondark It’s good that it only took you 18 hours to announce the definition of a term you co-opted, misused, fully fantasized into a strawman, and then forgot about on live television. You should definitely be proud.
It turns out that Ian has a 12 hour twitter ban for responding to Peter hitchens claim that the nazis were socialists by suggesting it was a shame his brother wasn’t still around to put him straight. If you need to contact him use sms.
And thus another Brisbane soccer player, Harry Homer, won't be coming home, after dying of acute jaundice in 1916. This one example of the brutal bureaucratic accountancy of war death reads like a visual/found poem
Hi @3AWNeilMitchell, I noticed you went quiet, so I'll ask again: why is Channel 9 boycotting the bombshell Pentecostal Victorian Liberals branch stacking story in the middle of an election campaign — don't Victorians deserve to know the facts? Ball's in your court. #auspol
My semi-regular reminder that this is the space over which the @FootscrayPark battle was fought. Read the text and work out what the problem was. Pic from ‘footscray’s first 100 years’
VCE exam #4. From 2021: "The repercussions of centuries of injustice, dispossession and subjugation, has left painful wounds, of which the effects continue to reverberate today." Subject-verb disagreement & again wordy, near-pompous phrasing. These examples are all "high scoring"
@IanSyson@PaulMavroudis@FootscrayPark Yes. Apparently it was called Como because at the time the lake was lush and reminded someone of Lake Como in Italy. But by lowering the level of the river, the lake became an ugly swamp. So they decided to drain it completely prior to this photo around 1924 I think.
