Chris Judd thinks we celebrated too hard.

Gotta enjoy the moment ... not robots & also celebrating for their suffering supporters..  I’m sure Goody & co know what they are doing

    I don't necessarily agree.

    It wasn't just the finals drought. It was how we missed last year, the talk about us being mentally soft and  not being able to beat top eight sides that brought out that outpouring of emotion. 

    The bigger question is how quickly we move on. We spend all week reflecting on that and we are boned for September.

    I loved his quote that to win finals you need to display inhumane behaviour. 

    No Judd, just because you are inhumane and have all the personality of a dried fig, does not mean that everyone else is a robot like you. The only reason you won a premiership is because you were surrounded by lots of other stars and cocaine. Your inhumane behaviour certainly did nothing for your next club, all it did is show you for the selfish, self centred, money grabbing pr*ck that you are.

    3 Goals to Half Time and our 4 win season with a percentage of 68 was almost Complete.

    Only 7 that played that week played last week against them and another 3 are on the list.

    I felt ashamed to be there that day. It was an embarrasing to be with my brother in law.

    So maybe Mr Judd needs to look back to where we have come from to understand the sheer jubilation from all concerned!!  End Rant

    Notice the free kick count that day. 28-16 West Coast... Booooo!

    Moments like last Sunday make it seem it was well worth the wait. Try to think of it as the foundation to us becoming great again. A lot of hard work has been done by all involved with the club since then. 

    As to Judd....PFFFT!!

    I used to enjoy watching Footy Classified, in fact it was the only footy show I watched  every week.

    Now Judd is on there I can not stand it.  The guy is unbearable.

    Yeah, it was one of our better days during that period.

    If Judd thought the players after-the-siren celebration was over the top he should have been at my place on Sunday..

    My thoughts exactly.

    SUBSTITUTES
    West Coast: Dom Sheed replaced Mark Hutchings at quarter time
    Melbourne: Christian Salem replaced Colin Garland in the third quarter
     
     
    The sub rule makes me want to vomit.   It  stunted the development of many a young player and was a huge and unnecessary change to our great game.    Thank god they got rid of it, but whoever implemented that garbage should have been fired never to work in sport ever again.
     
    The idea that our pick 9 Christian Salem was on the bench not being used until the third quarter is almost unbelievable looking back now.

    Times have changed.

    Richmond won a flag last year on a positive feel good vibe, and had fun doing it.

    Post win celebration brings atmosphere and belief in wanting more and more.

    Especially where we have come from.

    Also installs confidence.

    Let the Juggernaut begin!

    Interestingly, Jones said the celebrations on the siren were because they had rid themselves of the 'not beaten a top 8 side' monkey off their back and not because they had made the finals.  I had the impression that dawned on them a bit later.

    Lewis mentioned that people need to understand the noise at that cauldron with a hostile crowd and winning.  But by the time the plane took off (3 hours late) on Sunday night they were ready to move on to the next game.

    So Judd has has misunderstood the initial reason the players celebrated.  The supporters, however are over the moon happy and showed it. 

    Nothing wrong with a few man-hugs and a robust rendition of the Grand Old Flag.  I have no doubt the team has their feet planted firmly on the ground.

    I'd like to have some confidence installed. Can you do a quote?

    Depends how much celebrating you do .

    But I’d probably instill it instead of installing it. ?

    For celebrating I'd prefer it distilled

    I went through a good three quarters of bottle of scotch during that wet toast game. I think I sculled two glasses after they hit the front.

    It was .... the AFL coaches!

    They got all cut about having injured players, and how it wasn't fair that a game-ending injury meant that they only had 3 rotations to the oppo's 4. Unfair! they cried. We need 3 rotations and a sub to keep it even.

    New rule: sub player.

    Later on they worked out ... hey. We've only got 3 rotations when we could have 4. Why have we got an entire player just sitting there! Doing nothing! Stupid! Whose idea was that???

    The AFL, having outsourced the state of the game to coaches, was happy to rubber it stamp it each time.

    TL;DR: the coaches don't know what they want. There should be no coaches on "state of the game" panels.

    The over-celebrating comment is just a way for media junkies like Judd, Hutchinson and Lloyd (who agreed) to look authoritative.

    We beat GWS and/or win the first final and they can say raising the issue made Melbourne re-focus. Lose to GWS and then drop out of finals in the first week and they can say they were vindicated.

    Either way they appear to "win".

    One of the worst changes they ever made and was totally doomed from the start. I remember my brother saying it was good because it ‘added a new edge’ to the game. Yeah maybe from a spectator point of view but for the players it would have sucked. 

    And it sucked from a spectator point of view IMO.

    Judd wouldn't remember celebrating a win playing for Carlton for so long.

  • Quote

    Judd has been saying for weeks he likes the Demons and they can go a long way, think he was thinking we’d lose focus, plus he’s probably regretting going to the Blosers all those years ago

    Did Judd happen to watch the celebrations after West Coast beat Adelaide in round 23 last year to knock us out.?

    You would've thought they just won their 6th straight flag. I can't recall Judd criticising West Coast's celebrations after falling into 8th place.

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.

    • PREGAME: Geelong

      After a one-year reprieve, the Demons return down the freeway to Kardinia Park — the site of both one of our greatest triumphs and one of our darkest days — as they face the Cats under Friday night lights. This one could get ugly. Who comes in, and who comes out?
