You won't believe it. Long Down the line on the members wing. Although that's the time to do it

GAMEDAY: Rd 22 vs Carlton
Eight minutes left in the second qtr and I watched us switch sides across half back for what seemed like the first time in weeks. We raced forward and then fluffed it. I wish we'd had the courage and dare we used to have to switch and run it through the guts quickly. We seem a shadow of last year's side

NON-MFC: Round 22, 2022
It just feels like a weekend of terrible results coming up. And I hate the way we put ourselves in these positions where we rely on other results anyway

Why do I feel like Brisbane is going to do a Collingwood here.

Spot on. Let's face, this isn't sport anymore this is entertainment. Look after the big clubs. Look after the big stars. Create the blockbusters. Create the drama. Create an over the top ridiculous match day experience. Flexible rules at the tribunal so they can always get the result they want. Flexible rules and interpretations on the field. I truly believe umps are consciously or unconsciously evening games up to keep them close and viewers tuned in. It's not so much the free kick count but where they are paid. We saw it last week and we see it all the time where a big team that's behind gets a couple of softies in front of goal when it looks like they games slipping away from them. The AFL is corrupt. Nice legacy Gil. it's not about the fans or the welfare of the players. It's not about looking after the integrity of the most wonderful sport in the world in my opinion. It's about $ and TV. If it wasn't for my addiction to this club, I'd be just watching the occasional game of local footy. That's entertainment. Go Dees, deeestroy them.

I didn't know Tommy Chong was a Blues supporter man.

Forward 50 connection? It's the gameplan
I would have thought a logical plan would be... A. Kick it to a team mate 15m clear directly in front forty metres out. If not, B. Kick to the same pocket. It seemed like option A was ignored multiple times on Friday night. There's playing the percentages and keeping it simple and then there's just plain dumb and predictable. We've been worked out.

New Rule of the Week
I wonder about the incompetence but probably more about the fear with a big crowd. I also can't help but wonder if there's some kind of bias to even games up as well. Try and make it a close contest adds to the theatre of it all. It's those ones that get paid directly in front of goal that just make me spew

POSTGAME: Rd 21 vs Collingwood
So true. It was deeply disturbing watching the cats cut us to bits. They do it even better than the pies. Not sure Goodwin is adapting "just got to play our brand"

POSTGAME: Rd 21 vs Collingwood
Watching Ben Brown, it was nice to reminisce and think of Iron Hands Dawes. We have so many problems going forward at the moment. We really should give JVR a go. We're not going to win a flag at the moment unless we change our forward structure and our crappy F50 kick into the pocket entries. It was the Dogs game all over again. I chucked money on the pies at half time at $5.40. it feels very ordinary collecting.

GAMEDAY: Rd 21 vs Collingwood
Yes! Missing so many free players dead centre and straight in front and kicking to contests in a dead left hand pocket. Just weird
