GAME DAY - Round 22

Dermot Brereton is a terrible commentator. He speaks so much shite.

He knows his stuff. He just feels the need to tell us all of it in the one game.

 

what happened to Spencer ?

Was renamed as 'Southern cross'

Cross is too slow. Has lots of courage, but every week gets hurt going the other way, unless he can kick 3 goals a game to make up for the goals he leaks. I love his endeavour but we need players that can run both ways. If Matt Jones doesn't play (and I believe he shouldn't who do you replace him with?)

Are you asking in the general sense of "what's happened to him, why is he so bad?"

Or are you wondering why he's injured? Because if so he got pushed in a contest and was injured. No free was paid.

I'd replace him with a stick.

Seriously doubt he will be playing next year. Least of our problems anyway.

I reckon Kent will replace him next week DS

Now that made me laugh

The 2nd one :) Thanks Jaded

We have a terribly inexperienced side out there today, playing the ladder leader at their home ground. Too many of our players don't have AFL skills. Our Captain playing his 200th game, has no impact and is off before half time. The umpires as usual are killing us.

Considering all that, I don't think it is so bad, SO FAR.


We aren't very good (you're welcome for that incredible insight).

BUT footy on the TV is ruined by both networks pandering to clubs with bigger supporter bases. We get absolutely annihilated in the commentary, often at times being spoken to in reference to what the opposition team is doing even when running into goal. Meanwhile I've had the misfortune of watching Essendon games on TV over the last few weeks and the way they are spoken about, even though they are struggling, makes me sick. Doggies copped it until this year, Saints get it a fair bit too.

It's just another nail in the coffin of smaller teams, but thats not what annoys me - what annoys me is it's a short sighted strategy, as it actually makes 80% of the games poor viewing, and will damage an audiences interest long term.

Training drill. It's been very very bad.

We can't get our hands on the footy and when we do we can't kick it. It's ugly.

And here we go

Whoever is playing on Pearce today deserves 100 lashings post match.


Cross is hard as a cats head

I reckon Kent will replace him next week DS

Last game next week, I would play him. Harmes and Brayshaw. Young side, but might be worth a look

Why is Matt Jones even playing?

Whenever Roosy wants "angry" there's only one player to turn to!

HA HA HA

26 seconds and they goal

Cross is finished . Completely cooked. He spoils his own player in the final line of defence after he was slow to keep up with his man at the opening bounce. Reputations should count for nothing


Who knows. He won't be on the list next year anyway.

Shall I send u the soap wise! That could be construed as super negative. I hope you're prepared for a post match spray!

Typical [censored] spud mat jones!

 

Matt Jones....love him

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
