  1. Oh for the love of god...
  2. Sorry mate, that is such a naive comment....
  3. Nah, back out, but sub was warming up....
  4. Not that I wish ill on anyone, and Cripps is down in the rooms
  5. @Min Xie - you and I both know that’s EXACTLY how it happened 🫶
  6. But wouldn't that mean 'they' are going in too tall? It always seems on here that no matter what WE do, the opponent will have the upper hand,. as WE have gone to tall or small, not them... 😀
  7. No Danny Sexton!!
  8. Loose lips sink ships...
  9. I prefer the Supergrass version of Richard III
  10. *quickly googles reference*
  11. Maccas and Clayton on Social Media, just released. What an odd sponsorship partnership ... For a bloke that's never done media, now doing media...
  12. On Danny, My recollection of Danny - and I was born in 1979, was a good enough guy, but would get towelled up fairly frequently. But I suppose the team would leak goals like nothing else through that era, until 1987... Now granted, I had it through the lens of ABC radio in country Vic as a child, and never saw him play a game live at all. Was he quite a good player? As I have always had him low in my estimations.
  13. I place a lot of weight in a teams ability to arrest momentum of its opponent piling on goals. Seems to be pretty good alignment with the ladder as well... Five-plus goal streaks conceded in 2023 23 - West Coast 16 - Hawthorn, North Melbourne 13 - Gold Coast 11 - Western Bulldogs 9 - Essendon 8 - Fremantle 7 - Adelaide, Richmond, St Kilda 6 - Greater Western Sydney 5 - Carlton, Collingwood, Port Adelaide, Sydney 4 - Brisbane, Geelong, Melbourne
  14. So new rumours. Perhaps a title change? Trade Speculators? I miss The Riddler...
  15. It's unheard of as, Leigh Montanga noted - due to the impact of the +1 at the contest that Carlton employed compared to Melbourne's -1, on the data that goes into compiling 'pressure'. Generally speaking, be aware of aligning the 'pressure gauge' with the desire to win or hunger...
  16. Conceptually I love the idea of not showing your hand. I'm just not sure what it may look like in practice...
  17. Who was better? Nic Nat or [censored] and Swimming? [censored] = type of bird that rhymes with pits.
  18. True, but fewer scoring shots. Depends what you like to favor
  19. Dead set [censored]....
  20. "INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE!!" - as per... every. time. The umpires are exonerated for their decision making. Jonno Ralph - letting us all know that the AFL have 'ticked off' the decision on Petracca's non goal last night... FMD.
  21. I know nothing @dazzledavey36 - what position and whom would have to drop out?
  22. It’s like it’s going ‘to script’ @Clintosaurus no?
  23. Pondering, are we good enough this year? Some perspective on Losses: 9 points 27 points 4 points 7 points 15 points 2 points 4 points Top 4 is the first goal to be reached, and this has effectively being achieved (3.5% chance of dropping out). Well done to the team and the FD. We've had significant injuries in significant parts of the ground. Now on to Season number 2 - we're well versed in it, and play our game in such a way... Are we good enough? Yes, yes we are. ❤️💙 The question remains, do we have the right personnel at the right time in the right slots? Hmmmm
  24. It’s called a skill execution error… not a brain fade. It was the correct decision.
