I don't reckon they'll make the 8 but ...
name one side who hasn't returned an insipid performance this year.

I know exactly why I said that. Fremantle obviously *have* a chance, despite
the implication that they need to play all their games in WA.
Now it annoys you when I make a sarcastic attack on your team, might you
realise that I'm similarly annoyed?

Actually, I made a sarcastic attack on a stupid statement when Tony said ...
> me thinks this team has got what it takes to win a flag
It's you who took offence on behalf of your team and then decided to lash
out in response.

You may have missed the sarcasm. I don't think anyone here believes the
Hawks are a top 8 side except KRUDLER. I'm biased, optimistic, and one-eyed
and I reckon they'll miss the finals by a game.
You still haven't answered the question, and it is an interesting one ...

Well Port were insipid against us... so there goes that lot.
Brisbane weren't insipid against west coast as such... it was more West
Coast winning than Brisbane losing if you get me.
How about West Coast? I can't remember if they've been belted?

Yeah but hardly insipid? Disappointing.. but they still came away with
points. Losing would have been insipid.

Ok. So there performance was one point away from being insipid. Close
enough.

According to Oxford: "lacking in interest or liveliness". For me, I suppose
it'd be something like "performing well below capabilities" or something
like that.

I like the oxford definition.
We lack intrest and liveliness in our games. Thus making our performances
this year insipid.
