How bout opening a thread on the AFL and the brilliant idea of giving us three 6 day breaks in a row throwing in travel to Perth and Darwin as right bunched in together well done very creative that was, that's where our season end never the same team after that. 

Don't go blaming the Crows not there problem.

All I want now from this  f ing  football club is a ruthless footy department in the off season 3/4 of our list should be on the table you want money from us to put up with s#@t like this you have got to be kidding, no one is spared fkn joke. I feel like I've been fisted by all that has happened fix this crap.

who's the F ING idiot who started the changes v port thread should be given the arse from Demonland what complete and utter Richard weed.

crows are gone were fucd

are the crows fair dinkum or what this is pi55 weak

The mix in the forward line is so crucial depending on our dominance at center clearances and control of the ball in general play. we can only go with 2 tall at a time in the forward line and 3-4 small forwards who apply pressure. Once we go with 3 talls if our delivery is just bombed in and teams have been dropping a spare in defence, our ability to put pressure in50 diminishes alarmingly and we are susceptible to rapid rebound 50 attempts ie GWS the orange tsunami. Mix has to be right.

We've come along way in 2 years at least were in the conversation.

who would want to be in the box and listen to that lunatic, Bolton is one guy I would love to deck.

Who proof read that? shocking.

I have some stats from our 2017 fixture. After looking all this up i am stunned we are now in a position that we can make finals considering. This is remarkable job considering the fixture we had & the injuries. These are not excuses these are just facts hopefully we make it but i will send this to the club so they can make a request for their 2018 fixture hopefully we don't get such a shocking fixture.

 

6 Day Breaks

We have had 9 six day breaks this year yet our opposition going to matches against us have only had 2 6 day breaks going to a match against us. Those 2 matches were against Geelong in rd 3 we had a 6 day break aswell & against Essendon in rd 3 were they had a 5 day brerak & we had a 6 day break.

 

Consecutive 6 day breaks

 

we had 3 consecutive 6 breaks together from rd 13-15 yet none of our opponents had any consecutive 6 day breaks leading into a match against us.

 

 

2 days extra break or more

 

We only had on 1 occassion a 2 day extra break against our opposition at that was against Collingwood on queen's birthday as we had the bye the previous round so we had a 16 day break & collingwood had a 8 day break. Yet our opposition had on 5 different matches at least an extra 2 day break. In particular was the bulldogs game when we played on the monday on queen's birthday & the bulldogs played the previous thursday night & the week after against west coast were we played on the sunday aginst the bulldogs & the eagles played the previous thursday night again.

 

 

Bigger Breaks

 

We had on 6 occassions a bigger break then our opponents yet out opposition has had 10 occassions where they had a extra break on us.

 

 

This is just very interesting i thought.

Don't even get me started. 

True Heart you are thinking too much, let it unfold how wants too.

We are Norths bunnies. They know it and get up for it every time. We know it and play like [censored] every time

we have gifted 4th spot to Richmond with the losses we've had this year.

Nope, Lions have vastly improved in the second half of the season.

Have you taken a look at North they are a disgrace play like busted a holes for the last 3 months and suddenly play like there lives depended on it against us, you can put house on it they will tank the house down next week against the Lions and gain the 1st draft pick.

Brisbane had nothing to play for today no expectation but they rise coz were a young talented team they rested players like Hipwood and 2-3 others primed for this game been a common theme this year. 

I look at it trying to preserve themselves for next week against filth. Just took foot of pedal too early.

took the foot of the pedal too early. But I can't stand all these teams who roll over against others team earlier in the year and decided to play against us pick and choose when to turn up.

if we are a clean skilled footy side we are 6 goals up. Just to add more frustration we let them waltz through for a goal on the siren. FML big style.

if we are a clean skilled footy side we are 6 goals up FML

No thanks.

You reckon I think he would be a steal at the right price only knock on him would be his work ethic definitely could kick 20-30 goals a season.

I would be resting Viney against bris they dont want to win hasn't been right from the Port game.

Pedersen's contribution yesterday makes you wonder how many extra wins would we have had if he had been selected earlier in the season?

Geelong? (Leading 3/4 time)

Fremantle? (2 points)

Hawthorn? (3 points)

Richmond? (13 points)

I'd like to think at least 1 maybe 2 especially the Haw and Freo games during that time Hoges and Lewis got themselves rubbed out but we have got to remember all that has gone on this year suspensions, illnesses, funerals, deaths, injuries etc i think as a football club we have coped exceptionally well let's not forget all of this.

Salem has been given two weeks which can be reduced to one with an early plea.

What did he do now?

Get Buggy back in against Bris. Watts back in for the Pies. Give Trac a spell for the Pies game.

Rest him this week against Brisbane. Bring him back for the pies he'll be fresh as a daisy. Bog against them on QB.

This game was the perfect example of our season, its the reason why we are  7 and not top 4, we dont finish off teams, we don't  have a killer instinct.

agreed and our forward 50 awareness isn't quiet there we don't kick enough easy goals our dominance demands especially that 1st quarter should have been 50pts up.

How bout the quick clearance in the 4th was it clarrie when Hannan took that pack mark and dobbed it from 50. amazing what a quick long kick into 50 from a center clearance can do instead of the over using the handball.
