TEAMS: Rd 18 vs Port Adelaide

[Billy 1,964]

Feel a bit sorry for Hunt & Dunstan

Even though l don’t agree with the Melksham decision he’s still a Demon & we should get off his back & support him

[Bring-Back-Powell 13,151]

Hope Tomlinson puts in a better performance than his last start when Sam Reid of all people taught him an absolute footy lesson.

[leave it to deever 15,336]

Milkshake.....really?

Wasn't he super lucky to get to play his 200 and pick up his 5 possies as per usual.

Sounds tough but this is the critical end folks.

 

He's served us well bit doesn't see a patch of his former self.

If opposition fans were to read these boards they’d likely be confused. “Wow. This is how they talk about one of their own?!” It’s disgraceful.

Sam Reid is a very good footballer...has been cruelled by injury.

One of the best swing men in the game when he can get on the ground.

What does this mean? Serious question. If your preceding sentences are anything to go by it must be disparaging. But what exactly does it mean?

edit: I just googled it. There’s five minutes of my life I’ll never get back.

WCW, you may be related to my wife. She says all the time; "I don't understand boy humour"

All I can think of is Goody is trying to baffle the Port match committee with these selections just as much as us supporters

That being the case Im completely baffled🤯

Jump on bigfooty and check out every team boards team selection thread.

You'll be in for a huge rude culture shock.

This is nothing compared to others..

Both Max and Jacko played last week and it didn't help Brown though.

Yes, but just be nice to see what mainly Max forward, rather than mainly Jacko forward looks like 

[Jaded No More 57,820]

I am not thrilled with these selections but I trust the coaches. They’ve done a good job the last two season.

Melks selection is a joke 

Does he have pics of the coach

Almost unbelievable

Makes me sick 

[Jibroni 4,055]

Bedford and Spargo can count themselves very lucky.

I hope Jake cashes in on the lifeline he has received.

Dunstan must be regretting his decision to join us, and Chandler must be regretting staying with us. Form counts for nothing. The one saving grace is that Weid isn't in the side.

Will Melk and May run through the banner together as a sign of solidarity?

Melksham & May warm up will be 3 rounds of boxing??

Rivers and Tommo I get.

Melk’s selection confounds me   He looked well past it in the last couple of games he played 

Has he been starring at Casey ?

 

Agree, Melksham has looked a mile off AFL standard this year! Would have picked Dunstable or Hunt well in front of him.

I’m talking about THIS forum. (I know I wouldn’t last five minutes on BigFooty and similar which is why I wouldn’t bother to even momentarily visit those sites.)
But I believe the standard of THIS forum is such that nastiness purely for the sake of nastiness doesn’t belong. Constructive criticism? Sure, bring it on. But straight-up insults, yeah nah.

Melksham has shown good form at French restaurants so why not the Alice??!

Oh, I understand boy humour. I understand all humour. But this [censored] isn’t humour. For in order for it to be classed as humour, it needs to be funny. Or clever. These comments are neither. Ergo… not humour. 😁

He was great 2 years ago

Much much faster than now and hungry as ever. 

Seems to be totally different now

Love to be proved wrong and we see milk of old

 

 

[DemonWA 3,434]

Sparrow into the pure mid role and milkshake to HFF? 

Rivers is a good addition to our side imo

Bill there are 2 issues here . One is expressing an opinion and questioning a selection based on form. 
Supporting the player is another issue. He’s playing for Melbourne so I hope he proves me wrong and plays a blinder
