    Lions seem to have had a rough draw to start the year. 

    - The 4 games so far vs Saints, Demons, Port and Tigers and

    - 3 of 4 games intertsteate:  2 trips to Victoria and 1 to Adelaide. 

    No wonder they've run out of puff.

    Would like to see them win a few especially against the teams I really hate (have only moderate dislike for Lions which is the best I can give to any AFL side).

    I don't think they're that bad, with talent. So on your post Re the tough draw, I wonder if in another say 6 weeks, IF they will have Regrouped? And win some of those games you mention.

     

    I hope they do.

    Weird thing was, the season where 186 happened (2011) wasn't even that bad in the scheme of things - we finished 12th with 8 wins and a draw. It was otherwise looking to be a reasonable development year under Bailey until the club did its best to self-destruct.

    It was 2013 where the wheels completely and utterly fell off with two wins at 54%, which as ET said, was Fitzroy like.  

    Gotta love reliving these great memories.

    Very true. 

    1-8-6 is indelibly written on my soul...:(

    ...which only a premiership can erase :)

    I’d rather to have lost by 186 than never to have lost at all. 

    you might get away with that on the Collingwood forum ET but not here on the mensa board with all us Greek and Latin scholars

    Kangaroos vs Carlton is on free to air....  geez.

    It does not get any more boring and irrelevant than these two minnows playing each other.

    I would love to start a thread about the psychology. ...philosophy. ...sociological aspects of afl supporting.

    Its interesting the tribal passion we have. Sometimes I wo der if it brings more unhappiness than joy but I guess on the whole it gives me much fun and entertainment.

    Its great bonding now with my son which is a new dimension. 

    Cant imagine not having it or following another team. Cant imagine winning a flag though. Would be awesome.

    a pity we don't have Bruce to call the game but I assume BT will make up for it

    I know it. Have you ever looked forward so much to what promises to be a lousy game of footy?

    It just gets better and better. 

    Netflix will be the real winner.

    The Dogs small forward line seems to have gone to poo.

    They should have won that but as they can't seem to fit a leading target within the 30 meter range, they usually have to ping at it off crumbs, spillages and sneaky leads in the forward pocket.

    A big CHF or FF would help but their nine year investment is in the Magoos.

    Like him or not, McVeigh is such a pro in defence.

    For anyone who's interested I can confirm it is a horrible night in Hobart, had to pedal my bike down the hills to get to work otherwise I would have been blown back up them.  Just sitting here listing to the rain belting down on the roof. Shame because yesterday was perfect weather for footy.  Anyhow, should make for an already terrible game to be even worse.

    Just need north to get up to get my multi home.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • 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.
