"Tanking"


Whispering_Jack

Recommended Posts

So Brock didn't play against them in their 11 loss run or if not, see, hear or read anything about them in that period. Therefore unlike any other AFL football follower, let alone player, he would not have known what Carlton was doing during that 3 months.

Even "blind Freddie " knew what they were doing and it was discussed in the media as well. Wasn't their something called the "Kreuzer Cup"?

I said there was an easy answer to question that was easy to deflect. I cant see why any of the 3 journalists would bother asking it.

You don't refrain from asking a question because of what the interviewee might say in response.

You ask the question and let the interviewee answer it themselves.

Its a pretty easy and obvious "get out of jail" that even Brock could navigate.

This sort of press should make the AFL think twice before deciding to clobber the Demons.

Yep, this is a breakthrough, I'd imagine Vlad called a special meeting to work out a strategy to deal with this sort of comment.

In the words of John McEnroe, you can't be serious.

The AFL cannot afford to have this go to court (which it will if they attempt to charge us) as it will open a can of worms that will make our 1,000 page report look like a Myer sale catalogue. Besides, look on the bright side...if you feel disinclined to go to the games for fear of being referred to as a tanker supporter, you can take that time to attend grammar classes. Edited by hardtack

You're confusing monetary reasons for image viability reasons my friend. Shouldn't have to explain that to someone as obviously above the rest of us as you claim to be bright spark.

Well done master demon . I'm not the best speller I follow this club though it's dick heads like you that make me not want to.ya [censored]

Take a deep breath BH

Now no one wants to fling you.

I am no genius with Grammar and spelling

Can you just try a little harder

That way I will be able to understand you.

Use Google or Firefox for your browser they both have spell checks.

They make me look half decent.

I always loved watching the Dukes of Hazard. Boss Hog would connive and carry on only to be found out as having ulterior motives and ultimately make an arse of himself.

Tell me mate do you really think we did.nothing wrong

I agree BH we did

I hated it then and still do to this day

But it was no worse than 5 other teams during that period.

If we are penalised it will be a gross injustice.

Actually...the Kreuzer Cup was Brocky's top possession game for the year. You'd think he'd have noticed something.

Whoa Guys lets not turn this into a slagging of BH because he has a less than a great understanding of grammar.

He has some legitimate comments

Slagging his grammar does not mean his argument is wrong.

Can we all take a breath.

We all support the same team I think

Go Dees

Fair enough OD, but he might have done better if he hadn't come out swinging at anything that moved (metaphorically).

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
