Whenever I’m feeling down & need a laugh I know I can always go back & watch this biased peanut give us one of her delusional takes 😆

Haha! That is magnificent 

Cornes is spot on

Richmond are done, they looked stuffed in the last Quarter  totally gassed

    Did you expect anything else? Both clubs have enormous supporter bases. Would have been the same last night of the crowd was 50/50 like tonight. It was more like 80/20

    ...no i didnt expect anything else.

     

    2 Flags against interstate Clubs, with an incredible run of Home games at The MCG and 1 against the ageing Handbags. 
    3 Flags, good luck to them, they are in the cabinet, but I don’t consider it a great Dynasty

    I am glad you asked .  I want to know what Deep Fake means (I don't think it has anything to do with bedroom sports).

    Yeah nah, that’s just a regular fake. The Deep Fake is what one might see in one of those ‘questionable’ movies. 😆

    Hope I’ve not offended anyone. If I have, totes soz (not soz)

    Deepfakes (a portmanteau of "deep learning" and "fake"[1]) are synthetic media[2] in which a person in an existing image or video is replaced with someone else's likeness. While the act of faking content is not new, deepfakes leverage powerful techniques from machine learning and artificial intelligence to manipulate or generate visual and audio content with a high potential to deceive.

    basically just faking audio visual stuff i.e. audio,  photos, video

    deep fake specifically referring to the more intensive hi-tech methodologies involving among things artificial intelligence programs (i.e. not simple cut/paste & photoshop)

    That one against the handbaggers was a Clayton’s Premiership. Shortened games, shortened season. Someone had to win it in a completely ruined season and the cards fell right for them.

    How ridiculous.

    They won three flags in four years.

    Let's revisit these posts after 2024.

    You can visit them every day if you wish  brisbane and Whorethorn were much better sides imo

    Voss has Covid and can't coach against the Dogs next week. Wonder is any players will miss.

    • Shocked 4

    Round 1 signifies very little except renewed hope. 

    Tiges looked lethargic, except when  Prestia and Reiwoldt were up and about. I picked them for top 4, and still believe they will make it. Hardwick is a VERY good coach. Cotchin does look gone, Martin will take 4-6 to be back to his best, Grimes playing under pain and duress, Vlaustin out etc...

    Carlton looked good in terms of pressure and fightback, winning lots of clearances and contested possession, but their backline is going to be hammered by strong scoring sides like Dees, Lions, Dogs, Port, Geelong. They played well, but no way am I gushing over them. 

    Keep an eye of for new Bomber, Kaine Baldwin, who was the country’s best key forward prospect back in 2019 but two knee reconstructions and Covid19 left him unwanted and on the sidelines until rookied by Essendon. I thought at the time that he was a bargain pickup  - good luck to him tomorrow night at CHF.

    False sense of security.  Jobe Watson noted in the 7 coverage at 3/4 time that given the banged up Tigers midfield, Blues should run over them. They did,  despite Tiges going ok for 3 1/4's.

    A class midfield won't let this happen, i.e Dees, Lions, Cats.  Plus no way do the Blues have a premeirship standard defence.

    Welcome to AFL footy daicos. He will rue that kick.

    Is it wrong whenever I see Howe I just think we have a premiership & you don't.

     Josh Daicos joins the goal from your first kick in the AFL club. Just not one he will want to remember.


    Great to see De Geoy out there

    good to know you can allegedly forcibly touch/harrass a woman at a club and beat up her mate who stood for her and not miss a game.  AFL integrity

    And a reporter gets stood down for derogatory comment made about a woman

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
