Superunknown

Does anyone remember The 12th Man’s bit on the original Wired World of Sports where Peter Caven headbutted poor Tony Lockett’s elbow? In a continuation of the Deep AFL State conspiracy against us I predict Papley will have a late hit on Max - worse than Webster’s on Simpkin- max will get knocked out, then be suspended for 13 weeks for head butting Poor Papley’s shoulder. Obviously the AFL will introduce a rule next year to protect the shoulder . #MFCSS

I’m a bad person but when it happened I yelled that ones for angus Mrs super (CFC ) was not happy

Super idea. Someone with club connections should suggest it

I’d love to see someone do a basic comparison of the knocks clubs and players do and the penalty big Players get top shelf kid glove treatment

Quick quiz: If Someone created a fairly pointed Brayden Maynard is a <insert a popularly voted invective here > on a tshirt and made him look a bit like a money with some teeth missing, who would want to buy one srs question

I’ve an Anzac and away jersey I need to add numbers to. Both are 2022 vintage with the gold Premiers logo I’d planned on having #5 on the Anzac one but I think it only fitting #10 goes on When wife (pies) asks why, I’ll explain it’s a reminder of Gus, what was taken from him by that animal, and how he went out - with grace, humility and a bona fide legend.

I really admire how clear the club statement and Gus’ letter were - because of that one hit the club should be calling Dillon and Kane up to have them issue a diktat to all media they must refer to that one act not the long but now not so recent history

I agree with you There is some very clear positioning and framing here

Jeez even the article on Gus on DomainFax has a reference to Nathan Murphy sitting out now I’ve got nothing against Nathan Murphy, he seems orright like many other pies players but [censored]

First thing I noticed. Very specific framing. Legal action incoming maybe

Good grief - really well said. I needed that, thank you.

I really want to get over the QF incident but I’m finding it extremely difficult (which is silly), it’s affecting family footy watching and taking about footy. Serious post. Is anyone else feeling similar? Again, genuine post

I’m the same wife and their family CFC week after had to listen to one of them claim there was no way Maynard could have avoided and all the media was nonsense and unfair he was even at tribunal never watching a game with them again

Gracious and humble, with perspective. Can you imagine that from Maynard? Nup. If he had an inch of compassion he’d be penning a public apology.

Peter Ryan in DomainFax laid out a great analysis which concluded there was every chance Maynard would be freed again under the new rules. What does that tell you I bet Maynard couldn’t give a tinkers fig i hope we have very very bad and horrible things planned for Maynard next time we meet

2023 is going to be the one that got away will rue that for a long long time

If Harry McKay was worth pick 3, premiership player and podium Brownlow, low single figure handicapper gets us 7 round 1 picks

Sorry what? Why is it unworthy? He has form and was he not on the record about going out to do some damage? in any case, that’s hardly a slur, especially relative to some of the other disconnected-from-reality comments and behaviour from their fans. Speaking of deplorables….. *ducks for cover*

We should be pressing very very very hard and in a robust fashion for compo We (wrongly in my view) played the good corp citizen at the time and let the AFL run a wet lettuce prosecution and said nothing in the media, so they owe us I feel like we may be positioning for this as the media statement is very very clear about this being consequent to the QF knock specifically and not the cumulative effects (noting he’d been ok for 6 years). I wonder if we might be mentioning potential legal action . That’s what I’d be doing

Jeez the club statement and medical advice is unequivocal: because of the knock in the QF. seems a pretty Prima Facie case there eh.

Agree sue the AFL and Maynard

It seems DL and the usual antagonism hasn’t changed. Righto then

Agree i said a few years on here the customer service level was sub par (marketing etc) and was lashed Dealt with Collingwood post GF23 for merch for wife and son #2 and the difference was shocking

I think this year could get ugly. Signs there for a bit. I’ll be interested to see what happens with membership numbers given the last 2 years, off season goings on, and the economy.
