NON MFC: Round 10

[Watts the matter 1,235]

Kangaroos are putrid, as bad as I have seen this year.

[Demonland 64,761]

We play North in  4 days.

"... The Roos spearhead limped off with help from trainers after he landed awkwardly after being tackled by Cats defender Mark Blicavs.

Brown had his left knee heavily strapped and despite initial reports he would play on he has been ruled out of the remainder of the match. ..."

it looked pretty bad for sideshow bob

he's having a rotten contract year, clearly not an mfc player

Christian Petracca and a couple of first round draft picks should change that...

Can someone buy Hawkins a pair of sunglasses or contacts or..., something 

I find the [censored] disturbing

Hilarious game at the moment

 

29 inside 50's to 10 to pies.  Sydney winning!

Syd and the filth is even worse than what I saw last night. Adelaide play the filth next so maybe that might be their sole win for the year.

Get it done Swannies

There are some trash teams this year, and thankfully we haven’t played many of them yet

Filth getting an arm chair ride from the umpires.

[titan_uranus 22,289]

I haven't seen a second of the game, but the stats show Collingwood is +68 in disposals, +8 free kicks, +22 in CPs, +8 in clearances and +24 in inside 50s, for a three point lead.

Sydney's had 15 inside 50s for 5.1.

Are the Pies trying to model themselves on us?

Game on. What happened to Treloar?

Done something to his hammy, they are going to have a very weak side against us. 

[Redleg 37,556]

The umpiring this year has been absolutely terrible. Holding the ball doesn’t exist and infringements are just ignored one after the other,  until a soft free is paid resulting in a goal to the more popular team. You could be forgiven for thinking they are actually cheating.

Not just Treloar, but Quaynor and Will Hoskin-Elliott were both off injured as well.  Quaynor looks like a break in the lower leg, Hoskin-Elliot was a leg injury (knee?) and missed Treloar's, so no idea what happened to him.

Like they did a couple of years ago and belted us, to stop us making the finals.

Watched the second half with my magnificent spouse.

Me:  "Ugh, so many of these Collingwood players look like little [blank]s."

Her:  "Oh, don't be so harsh, they're not Hawthorn."

She also lip-synced Buckley talking to the 3/4 time huddle, including "You're not Coles, you're not Woolies."  Her theory being that the Collingwood players had those range-activated thingies that make your shopping trolley stop when you get too far away from their start point.

Some people just really commit to embracing Australian culture, y'know?  Sigh, she even really, really hates West Coast supporters. 

?

I heard Eddie say Sidebottom's partner was expecting (in the context of players returning to Melbourne for births and then having to do another 2 weeks quarantine) but unsure if she is in Qld or Vic currently. Pendles, Treloar, Sidebottom and Degoey potentially not playing from their midfield. We won't deserve finals if we can't take care of that.

Dam sydney had there chances in that final term. Papley missed shots he'd usually kick and when they were 2 points down 3 swans players just handballed to each other instead of 1 choosing to take shot when they were all open. Dam that would have been great to see them knocked off, but in fairness the goal by Daicos was awesome. 

The saints suns game is really enjoyable so far. Not fussed who wins. 

[titan_uranus 22,289]

I'm biased because I absolutely detest St Kilda, but I reckon they're the worst top 2 side I've ever seen.

They rely on goals out the back, extreme accuracy (which history says doesn't last) and unforced errors from their opponents.

Sure, credit to them for winning and likely going 7-3 after tonight, but I reckon they're going to get found out later in the year.

[spirit of norm smith 12,890]

Memo to Dees brains trust. 
 

1- Saints forward strategy. 2 Talls. 4 smalls. Kick to forward 25 spot and rove the pack. Butler. Hind. Kent. Gresham. 
 

2- Saints mids. Use their pace and run. Hill. Jones. Billings. Hold them up and slow down the supply. 
 

Probably doesn’t matter. Membrey is poor against most clubs but kicks 4-5 against Dees (usually on oscar McDonald)  

[The heart beats true 16,109]

Is it me, or does Dean Kent look heavy?
