O Mac to Lynch? Or Omac to Riewoldt?

 

that is absolutely terrifying ?‍♂️

My Goodness! OMac in again? Heaven help us.

All the Demon backs will have to cover for him against Richmond just to fill the OMac gap (and simultaneously be caught, repeatedly, out of position many, many times - prepare ye the way of the rampant Tiger forwards. Goodwin could not have done better for those opportunistic runners. 

We know where the attack will be directed: at OMac wherever he may be. He is as good as two men missing for most of the game and into the last quarter, three or four more men missing as our other backs display total exhaustion from  the now-required double-teaming for three quarters. Frosty and HIbberd will bear the brunt of it all and Salem will be shagged by half-time.

Oscar -v- Riewoldt/Lynch. Pray for very heavy rain all day Saturday.

Pray for a game-ending earthquake at quarter time!

Guarantee the sponsor prize Jag ends up in a Richmond supporters hand to cap off the spanking and show the absurdity that our sponsor will give the major prize to anyone who turns up rather than the cash paying members or the sponsor clubs own supporters!!

Am I the only one thinking this will be the mirror image of the last time we met? Like all of our double up matches where we don't really learn a thing and repeat the same mistakes, however much captain crash n bash would like to talk about how we're learning from the year  (SEN today)

We'll shut up shop, flood back all game with no one to kick to forward and avoid a massive embarrassing prime-time loss as the Tigers keep a 12-24 point margin for most of the game, before kicking away in the last quarter after we "excitedly" get to within 1 goal. We'll of course never really have been in the contest.

Can I book you in for a palm reading sometime?

May still unfit. OMac another game by default. Tim Smith out injured again. What a f’ing joke. 

I don't care how old they are, but we need to recruit a senior KPF next year, even if they're depth. If by miracle, we're contending next year but Weid or Tmac get injured, we can't rely on T. Smith to play more than 1 or 2 games in a row. There goes any forward line chemistry and we're back to being scored ridiculously easily on the forward half turnover.

Anyone that wouldn't take Jenkins or even Westhoff for a couple of years over having T. Smith and Keilty alone in reserve is absolutely kidding themselves.

ANB OUT...who would have predicted that? (Err...everyone for the last 3 months).

Shame May doesnt get up, but looking after him for the longer term comes first.

We have so much to improve to just be competitive.  Everyone will expect us to get spanked.  Set up and play faux-tough, and then get absolutely pantsed on the turnover.  It is a struggle to see how we will kick a competitive score, and even harder to see how we stop them.  OMac just doesnt man up, Frost doesnt think when he disposes of it. No Nev, Hibbard looks at half pace.

Im glad they sell beer.

I stopped caring a long time ago, but surely Hore should have come in for McDonald allowing Lever to go to Lynch or Riewoldt.

Did we really give up two first round draft picks for a back pocket?

Lever will help us win a premiership 

Stop selling him so short 

He’s a beauty

Would have been better rolling Petty back and throwing Omac out

Indictment on the club OMac gets another game after his shocker last week. Bartlett promised action ... Well Glen

Can I give you a hint.. Coaching and Selections are mystifying, to say the least, Yeah I know injuries and all, but for one of our "Finds" in Hore, to miss again and Oscar to be given yet another game is almost negligent. As a member, Im not happy with this!! Agree with post Petty back and u know who out.

Not happy, but not unexpected!!

I’m going simply because I feel like the $72,000 I spent on memberships this year has been a total waste of money. With 2 home games left before I bugger off, I’ll go to try and win the Jag so at least something can be salvaged from this season. 

We will get smashed. This is an ugly ugly team.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
