Post Match Masochism - Round 21

Recommended Posts

The other side of that coin is that when you cut your losses you can turn the dollar you have into 30 cents.

Martin for Pick 53 was not value. And we should have left that on the table.

Watts would be more valuable on the list than in a trade I am afraid to say.

i can't see much value in having a player who sets such a bad example on the non-negotiables and yet keeps getting games

what does that do to the morale of other players who don't get the "star" treatment

i don't think you can have your cake and eat it

God what's happened!??..I am in Amsterdam ...no footy here...last time I looked we lost to Port Adelaide by 3pts...we seemed to be doing reasonably OK to that point.

Stay there WWS the news is all crap you really don't want to know.

Can someone please tell me what that girl said when the players were going into the tunnel...it looked like she was giving them a spray and was getting in Vince's face

Saw an article that mentioned her somewhere. They said she was screaming "WHAT WAS THAT?!?!?!" at them repeatedly. I may have taken a little license with the punctuation there.

I never took much interest in Maynard. Dobie was always my favourite.

No doubt she was commiserating with them but, at the same time, commending them on their effort.

I think you will find that's the case BBO. Even though on first glance she did appear to be mouthing "you've ruined my life you useless, [censored]pracks" she was in fact mouthing " bit stiff today chums, bounce wasn't with us today. chin up".

As an aside I used to love

1 Gomez Blowing up the trains

2 Mr Gazoo always giving it to Fred Flintstone

3 Louie Lebo cranking Sgt Shultz left right and centre

4 Capt Binghampton blowing a head gaskit at Elroy

5 Shintaro the Samurai killing 20 Puppet Ninja but never having any blood on his sword!

6 And Finally wondering what it would be like to get into Lady Penelope's deep and meaningfuls!!??

Ah Memories!!

Ah sorry for hijack but gotta feel good about something tonight!!

I was listening to SEN prematch and the commentators were baffled and questioned why 20 minutes before the bounce our players were handing out jumpers to supporters on the ground.

I wasn't at the game and maybe it was because of this Member appreciation week, but I don't think this is great for their headspace going into the match .

It did seem to have a bit of one team turning up expecting to win easily and the other turning up prepared to have a game of footy. Not an excuse because they should be able to switch on at quarter time, half time (too late by 3/4 time) but it's something I think our club suffers from far too often - how you can look at yesterday's game and compare it to the Adelaide, Essendon, Richmond and both Port games and think it's the same side is inexplicable.

How is that possible! Mission has been there for about 3 years now and all we have to show for it is Trengove is half as quick as he used to be and probably had OP for the last 2 years.

Bring back Bohdan Babizhbdifhvnsfdvs.

Can't underestimate how this is a cancer in a team. Next time the fwd just doesn't run because what's the point. Its one prime reason why this team doesn't run and spread. Watts is a classic example. In the past I have seem him be burned my multiple leads

One thing I do feel for Watts about is how often he is free in the corridor and his teammates refuse,to get it to him. Grimes burned him on two occasions and it's happened with Grimes often in the past to the point I actually commented that Watts must have slept with Grimes missus or something. That is where Watts needs the ball free in the corridor so he can actually use his elite kicking.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
