I know of C for Caleb, but who's the other Windsor?
Harry
That memory needs to be squeegeed from my brain That would be a good problem to have, if we had it. Redundant question to ask young Jacob, what else is he going to say!
And on a footy calendar as Mr September hopefully. By the way, where can I get one? Asking for a friend 😂
On an unrelated note, that back sponsor triggers:
Throw Gawn forward and he can hide inside his beard
Is Jack making them cry?
Should've at least paired it with a red sarong
Re-arrange. They chafed last year and produced a nasty rash
Good on him for retiring and making the league slightly fairer. Hopefully it offsets their drafting of another potential 2nd year norm smith winner. 🤦♂️
Ive not but I popped it on my drive home and that was pretty rockin', like old kyuss. My favourite track was Shine, I love an epic song with a long slow build up and an explosive 2nd half. Bands I mentioned are all kind of slow sludge doom mostly instrumental found on the https://www.reddit.com/r/doommetal/ sub. Although Mike Pikes High on Fire is very classic. Bongripper's album Empty was my favorite this year. its brutal!! Maybe when the lads train/play up in a suburban ground, you can pop on orange goblin on full blast from a classic old v8 holden to get them in the physical ruthless mood
Well we've got 10 or so rounds to focus on our game plan and build those valuable selfless habits, should naturally flow into the QB game without giving it much thought into special efforts. Hopefully Neal and Bec Daniher come into the rooms again and get the boys fired up though, as you said, a little bit extra for this one game. Btw Doc, are you into stoner/doom metal with that avatar of yours? Electric Wizard isn't it? I've been listening to doom metal a lot in the past few years and getting into some bands like bongripper, bell witch, ufomammut, ahab, high on fire and sleep of course lol Maybe we can run out to:
Shouldn't we be doing that every game? You team mate is physical and ruthless and you pat him on the back after every stoppage for that effort. The ship has sailed. The players from both clubs are all mates, hell our potential captain in waiting last year wanted to join them, even after their captain put him in hospital. I can understand our fans frustrations and anger and lust for blood, but I just don't see it in the players having a particular hunger for that with Collingwood, it will be a distraction if we make it one. I'm reiterating it, let's have the same physicality and ruthlessness against every club. Particularly in the FIRST QTR/HALF of every round, so we can demoralize our opponents and have them playing catchup/junktime for the rest. The rest will work itself out against any club, not just the Pies. The Lions are the real enemies this year. The plan to beat them is the one we should be putting a smidgen more tactical emphasis on in training, if anything.
How we play against Collingwood is only important in relation to the 8 points that make up how we finish on the ladder. Spend any more time than the 2 weeks of opposition analysis on them, then we will simply be beaten by other clubs instead. They're one of 16 other clubs we have to worry about. They didn't win the flag, they're not the team to beat.
It was Mentha be
Those two words: 'Dan Houston' should be [Censored] on this board
The Nathan Buckley farewell game was embarassing in 2021 but so what?? , iIt doesn't have to be the Dees that inflicts the fatal wounds on them to end their season. We won the flag and lost to them in the same season. No shame in that. Would the Lions have won the flag if they ended up playing the red hot Hawks in the finals at the G last year with everything going right for them? Every bounce of the ball? The Lions have been the Hawks Tassie bunny's for a decade now. (Embarassing right?) One matchup could be all it takes to ruin your flag hopes. And avoiding that matchup can help you go all the way! Best not to think about the Pies too much. Let others sort them out. And if it comes to a final again. We'll be better prepared stylistically this year hopefully. The way our fans make them the be all and end all is just as embarassing. It's an 18 club league. And to put it into perspective: we don't even rate in their top 5 rivalries by fan survey. From memory it was Carl, Ess, Geel, Richmond and Port So QB are bigger blockbusters mainly to us Dees fans, but as the cliche goes, it's only worth 4 points at the end of the day. PS. Wish they'd stop giving us a double up in r23 though!!! Haha
