  1. Hopefully Goody tells the boys to avoid ‘trying’ in December Joey got his timing all wrong
  2. Big out. Joe can be terrible but can also turn a game around in minutes Our big 3 at the back should now dominate and we can plan to rely on those intercepts and spread / rebound hard. hard to see the Lions winning now
  3. sorry i don't think i was clear. I meant if we only got around 45K tonight, imagine this scenario next year....
  4. we were in our twenties though
  5. Pretty sure it comes from english slang. to 'bottle it', is to choke or lose your nerve. not only in sporting terms. ie. didn't have the nerve to ask a girl out
  6. I can almost hear the sweet sound of old man hamstrings popping in the first quarter of the prelim
  7. This is where dynasties start. It is bloody hard to go back to back that's why even the Cats have never done it. Remember the hawks when they lost and had to go to Perth and beat WC? Sometimes you have to do it the hard way. We are carrying injuries but we can do it. Win 3 games. we have the stars that can stand up and make it happen Cmon you DEMONS!
  8. Thanks for not mentioning how many MFC Coaches
  9. Lovely 20oC day predicted. Hardly any rain in Victoria at the moment. Maybe a bit of drizzle tonight but who gives AF!? put on your shorts and thongs and get on down. *To quote my Layzie friend
  10. The Lions will be fired up for this one, after the embarrassment of the past few years. And they will come out hard but I expect them to play the ball more than the man this time Demons by 9 points in a cracker Gawn BOG
  11. Charles in Charge
  12. I'm looking for a championship team to follow at the moment so i can get my love for the game back I miss the old Zola/Poyet days *sorry all, I'll stop the round ball comments
  13. I hate you so much right now. But I gotta respect the gag At least it wasn't Garry Hocking in a box
  14. Clear to see any deep central entries end up in turnovers. All goals coming from shallow wide entries obviously you need to consider skill, intent and structure in all that ps. any chance we could get a box and whisker plot of this data? not for any reason aside from it's my favourite presentation of data
  15. Strong EMGs in Wouldn't mind a late change of Bedford in for Spargo. We need speed and pressure in the fwd 50
  16. I would kill to have that 'dud' in our fwd line!
  17. You mean Geelong that have been top four 9 out of 10 years with only 1 losing GF to show for it. You assume we are not striving to evolve? hopefully we don't take 10 years like the Cats did to change things up. I am not saying we don't have issues or that Goody doesn't have his weaknesses, I just don't get the negativity without acknowledging the positives. Success does not come easy, there would be issues behind the scenes we are not aware of. drinking our own bathwater? give me a spell!
  18. Oi! Chelsea fan here (since '88) can't say i disagree with your post but thought i needed to fly the flag a little. :-) After Tuchel got sacked, I'm actually at my lowest level interest ever. I have been a die-hard fan over the years
  19. How can I not understand the lack of respect and faith in our coach? Mainly because we have been in the top 4 every round for the past 2 years unlike any other team. i.e. he has been the most successful coach over the past 2 years. regarding team selection of key forwards, he has tried many options of Weid, Brown, M Brown, T Mac. Between injuries and lack of talent there is not much we can do. We could try a first year kid but I am sure we have our reasons for not throwing him in. You guys act like we have one of the King brothers playing at Casey!
  20. I agree. Let the results speak. A flag and a second place. A bit of faith is well deserved
  21. I know what has happened. I just can't understand the lack of faith in the senior coach
  22. A lot thought we might lose Trac, lever etc. of course we are more favoured with our best team in. Only DL folks can’t see that
  23. Goody gets us a flag, backs it up by finishing second and still gets little respect on here truly bizarre
  24. Max will tear Fort a new one we need a dominant performance from our skipper.
  25. I was thinking the exact opposite If we make changes, eg, rest players for the PF and lose, we lost it at the selection table
