This is a Discussion board, does it really matter where comments are made, when the Club is in silent freefall??

Still waiting for your reply to my PM btw

Week after week this garbage just keeps getting smeared in our faces. What's the point in having these rules if they aren't enforced? You see 50m penalties given when the guy on the mark takes 1 step backwards.

Honestly thought that Fisher snap was through, so badly wish it was.

The non free to Daicos should have decided the game. unbelievable 

but the non 50 when 2 pies tabs metres over the mark. just laughable

Yes i get what your saying.  Lobb is not a decent target up forward.  Soft as butter.

We have JVR and Fullo as back up & chop outs for Max.

How did you determine Fullo's a bust?  He hasn't played.

Have u watched him at Casey? 10 times softer than Lobb. The latter has been good in recent weeks. Has way more pedigree than Fullarton although that's not saying much. Using JVR in the ruck is detrimental to his forward craft. If you really think the way forward is using those two as back up good luck to you. BTW, Fullarton has done nothing to earn the nickname 'Fullo'.

My son is a very loyal North supporter- goes to every match so I am sad for him. My husband on the other hand, turns the TV off if Collingwood are getting beaten. I bet he will watch the replay now 😡

So if I now start a discussion here about some arcane rule, you'll be happy to discuss it here. 

It does matter where comments are made, otherwise why not have a single thread for everything. 

Don't worry, with you around there is no danger of a silent free fall.

(Sorry I should have posted this in the 'my club is a disaster and some people can't get enough' thread.)

I may have told you this before but my Pies fan dad does the same thing or doesn't watch live at all but then on the following random Tuesday at midnight he'll watch the replay. It annoys me that he'll have something decent to watch at that time now haha.

In that last quarter, North let the Pies free to do their outside run and overlap game. Hoskin-Elliot, Sidebottom, and others constantly free outside or forward of the ball over and over again. The Roos will be gutted by that loss but the defensive mindset was just not there. On top of that, some decision making brain fades when moving forward, and that horrendous last shot on goal that missed everything = not knowing how to win. The Roos are slowly coming emerging, but I see a lot of the Dees 2015/2016 abut them.

It does my head in. I always sit and watch our matches from start to finish. I even sat through 186 until the bitter end. 
Your dad and my husband are two peas in a pod.

I only care about 1 Club. sorry if that bothers you

Todays game was very relevant for that reason

Roos were out on their feet from early in that last qtr. As much as I hate Collingwood, I really envy their spirit. That was a very impressive comeback with so many stars out. But geez the umps got them over the line in the end. That non-50 was criminal.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
