  1. It was one thing to go through the experience of watching Gus get ironed out, losing by a whisker and then being abused by pies supporters after the siren when they won anyway. It was icing on the cake sitting next to the AFL marketing team at lunch in a restaurant the following day. Their complete focus was not on the final series but how they could leverage maximum value for their commercial partners. I appreciate that's their job but seriously, half of them didn't even watch the whole game the night before. It really turned me off going to AFL games completely. Still love the game, local footy and the Dees, but I'm not up for the whole bombastic BS they offer. Go Dee's and love ya Gus

    I think last week when they were hanging in there with the cats at Taxpayer haven, the commentators said that Richmond had now played every player in their squad in the seniors this year apart from a kid (a gun basketballer recruit) who was playing his first season of footy ever! Let that sink in, when we use lack of depth for an excuse and how we performed against Freo and WC. Richmond are at least competitive and I'm really happy for Adem to be doing so well with such a decimated team. You can see that attacking fast style of play coming through. The Lions used to be my 2nd team to barrack for when we were out, but I really dislike them now. I think I'll be going for the Tiges for a while now. Go Yze!
  3. He really looked cooked out there fitness wise on Sunday. It's to be expected. I really didn't think we'd have him back at all this season, so I guess we've gotta be thankful he's playing footy at all this season. He's definitely only Choo and not Choo Choo at the moment
  4. Petty is moving like a guy in his early forties who's had a backyard vasectomy the day before Matchday ??? 😕
  5. Steven May is moving about as well as a 90 year old that's just had a hip replacement. He is not himself at all. I'm not sure how he'd go forward at the moment unless we just plonked him the goal square in a lazy boy. He's giving it all he can but he looks really really sore to me.
  6. Yes woke, they're always awoke because of all the kids they're all having. Time for a bonk ban. Players with no kids are not woke so much. Let's get Toby Green and Maynard in. Tommy Raudonikis can coach. Andrew Bolt for Ceo. Probs solved.
  7. The Kolt needs to step up and step out with Goody!
  8. No I was not serious. Well Maybe about Maxie, he seemed to be distributing more out of the centre than some of on ballers. Chasing our opponents is what we excelled at for about a decade a while ago. It was like a trip down memory lane.
  9. This for me too. Incredibly disturbing when combined with Casey's form
  10. I thought today was another whole big step down.
  11. I think Max may have been out best midfielder today. Full credit to the boys, they chased their opponents around hard all day.
  12. Jordan Lewis just aying the same. Coaches making no adjustments
  13. TMAC forward. Woohoo, season saved!
  14. And Yze will get a fit team and be challenging for a flag
  15. What is a top 4 team doing 100 points down?
  16. Wherever he is, he's probably jogging and not putting any pressure on his opponent
  17. This has so much "Neeld feel" about it. Remember when you're highlight of a game was a good chase down tackle? When you just had to be happy to watch a young bloke like Windsor bust his guts? I've really got the Needs nostalgia going here It's like a Trainwreck and I just can't seem to turn the tv off.

    The legalisation of shoving players both hands in the back to get them out of the way to take a mark is driving me quite spare
  19. I've really enjoyed watching Casey in the last few years but just haven't watched much this season. The fact that it seems like AMW maybe the only one right now who could step into our AFL right now is quite disturbing. In years gone past, you could see similar game plans and systems across both teams and a number of potential candidates pushing for selection. Casey's performance this year is really setting alarm bells off for me

    Ginnivan didn't have time to comment, as soon as the team mates got around him, Day busted through, gave him a mouthful and some really big shoves. Yep, it was Day who got burnt earlier, but it was not a good look at all. Quite surreal to see a team mate so angry like that.

    What was the go with Ginnivans team mate after he kicked the goal at the end of the 3rd. Got right in his grill and shoved and pushed him about 4 times

    Here's a bad idea, have a drink every time a Carlton player stages or throws their hands up appealing for a free kick. Qtr 1 - lose the ability to speak Qtr2 - get a bucket Qtr 3 - in the shower Qtr 4 - tell the paramedics how much more you hate Carlton.

    Sorry everyone, I put money on Port at $2.50 when they were a goal down last quarter. This is all my fault.

    I thought you were going to say.... I'm curious as to what might happen when I leave the Collingwood cheer squad!
