Re: Collingwood - Is that cause a parochial crowd, goes 'Colllliiiinwoooooood" in a really annoying fashion? Or is it because the parochial crowd goes 'Booooooo" *spit, bile* and potentially influences the umpires in crucial moments, at crucial parts of the ground? Just quietly, I'd welcome the intensity, and I think our athletes would also. Jeepers, I'd be alarmed if that was disconcerting to our players... 👌

Well, why isn't he listed in your profile - like some others?? 😍😉

Clarry - as of this week - 4001 possessions -of these 2127 contested, 935 clearances.

👆holy moly...

Can you explain the reasoning around 43% for Brisbane? Merely home ground advantage? *edit - I'm sure there are an amalgam of data that make it - it seems a little 'off' after Thursday.

What's the operational definition of 'careless'? or 'reckless'?

4-0 run coming up 👌

@John Demonic - I raise you.

Ahhh Ollie Wines. Do you recall the time he won a brownlow, when a certain Clayton should have?

@Elwood 3184 I have posted these in the post game thread...(not trying to come over the top of you) however I think they're so good, that I (or anyone else) should pop them into their own thread... I was almost thinking along the lines of a a "Round X - Postgame Media Thread" Thoughts?

To the placegetters... can you explain how you got to your 'aha' moment? 🤙

Lest we forget, it's been a hallmark since underage.

Tell that to Usain Bolt...

Totally Chris telegraphing....

Replay was just on @Redleg.. i didn't see it...but blimey... some would call it an 'average act' as Garry just called it...others would call it something else.

Definitely a shift in interpretation...and 'amazingly' the commentators are in synch with it 🤷‍♀️

Are we assuming that we were prepared to lose 2 of 3 to fall back to the pack (should have beat Sydney)- so to speak... loading a bit earlier than the others...and then for the others (Freo, Bris, Carlton, GTown) to load at some stage and also potentially have diminished returns from winning... I'd think so also... 👌

Me too, I just ran 15km for the first time in 2 months (when I first got it....lingering...lingering, phlegm)... I've just barfed my lungs up. 🤮 #humblebrag 😉

I appreciate this forum is a place to vent for some people, and what really riles me, is that there is often vitriol towards umpires from certain posters. Personal attacks wouldn't be accepted against any other group. So why these individuals? It wouldn't be tolerated in my house against anyone, I'd send my 6yo to his room, and if I spoke like that, I'd send myself to the room and give myself a good long talking to about respect, compassion and common decency. So it's been bugging me that this forum perhaps doesn't sanction that sort of commentary (perhaps it does and I am not aware of it). We can do better Demonlanders. #notallDemonlanders A sample of EO when people were 'attacking' "Britney' 😉...or 'PRGUY17'

The only good thing to come out of Covid (at least in a football sense) was watching matches and being able to hear the players call out instructions etc... I'd love the simplicity of that when watching live tv, or on replay...

That was against us wasn't it? 😇

One of my favourite Demetriouisms

Oh hello, we're winning again - so I'm back trawling through the usuals.😇 Here is The Mongrel Punts latest masterpiece.

Pretty sure some Wag on here said that by observing how Jackson played, would tell us whether he was going to sign a contract or not... ps... I would have posted this if i had a poor game as well, or even a middling... none of these things would be instructive of anything.

"Resting on Laurels".... I disagree that the losses have been attitudinal...
