deebunked

The saints need to return to Moorabbin so they can drench the ground overnight and turn it into a mud heap before games. Even then they were still putrid in the 70's and 80's but atleast they'll have somekind of home ground advantage. They have nothing at the moment. Cant even beat Lions in Melbourne. Sad. Marvel is their 'home ground' ??

Youre correct, however Melbourne must finish 4th so we take Geelong at the MCG. Its called September finals. We will win that game. You want to play Swans at the SCG in finals woth all the baggage that goes with it? You might be right. I'll take Geelong at the G.

The media. Its the same o/seas. The media is owned by corporations and billionaires.They love the elite. AFL CEO tricky Gil is god.The media will never use the word 'corrupt. ' AFL can do as they please and spend money without being accountable. The tribunal system is set up to assist the elite clubs ie Carlton. The next CEO will be just as awful no doubt. The media will adhore him.

I worry about some of you people. Melbourne is going for B2 B .Stop worrying about Cripps .Who is Cripps pray tell! Let him play and we beat them. Is the Afl corporate corrupt? Of course it is. But so are all the corporations in this world. Cripps is nothing. Relax. He will probably get a 1 week suspension. Then d Collingwood will complain. Who cares?? Go dees.

For heavens sake just let Cripps play . Carlton is done. Who cares? What has all this 'lawyer -ing and legal interpretation got to do with anything. This sports elite garbage happened several weeks ago with Buddy and the swans still beat us. Let Cripps play. We'll lick em in the morrow!

Goodwin has condidence in the team. They should of won last week. He looked furious at the post game presser. He and the players know what is expected of them Saturday night

Phil Carman got a 2 weeks suspension missed the 1977 GF which was a draw and missed the replay as well!! ....if my memory serves me correctly. Collingwood would have (rightly) tried to get the 2nd game rolled over to 1978 R1 but no joy.

Might also be advisable to get a rabies shot as there has been an outbreak of some sort this week at training.

Get Jackson signed up then we dont have to worry about buying Grundy FFS! he's injury prone, not young and will cost a gazillion dollars. Grundy is the last player we need. He's Collingwoods headache. Theyre stuck with him and that absurd 7 y contract which will be back loaded. Atleast Melbourne thinned out T/Mac's contract by pushing it out 2 extra years. Smart move. Pies cant do it with Grundy's insane deal.555

Hawthorn and Geelong are the teams i loath the most. They humiliated us for years. Even today we still struggle against Hawthorn and will in 2023. Collingwood supporters dont know any better because of their lack of breeding. They dont bother me as much. Essendon , no issues there except for one game...2000GF.

Didnt the umpires get the Bulldogs over the line at the gabba last year? No way will MFC get a fair deal from the umpires like clubs such as the dogs. Last year we did ok under different circumstances. This year highly unlikely. This weeks Carlton game might be a shocker atleast poster boy Cripps wont be there.

Unfortunately it may be the best scenario that Pies keep winning their H&W games which guarantees both QF at the Mcg. We finish 4 or 3rd , doesnt matter. We can beat both of the top2. A Swans final at the SCG or Lions at the gabba is game over.

I think youre right but 10k is lunch money for clubs. The suspension should be double if you lose after wasting everyones time.

There should be a penalty if you lose an appeal. Its just a waste of everyones time. Carlton have nothing to lose. AFL is so badly run. Amateurs running a professional league.

1 or 2 weeks but then Carlton likely to appeal with little to lose and then the media circus goes into overdrive same as the all week Buddy fiasco before our game with the swans. The AFL is run by amateurs. Lose the appeal and sentence doubled. Pure and simple.

If dees lose to Carlton there will be alot of very P...Off saints suporters because its season over for them even if they win. Richmond have a soft ride in with hawks and bombers with no bombs.

Looks really bad for Cripps. No intention of contesting the ball. Has to get minimum 2 weeks for that. May would get 4 .

The AFL draw definitely shaped the look of the eight this year. Geelong and Swans got Norf twice + % boost. Geelong also got two bites at the eagles . Geelong are laughing at the moment. Too easy for them. Everyone in the 8 has to fight for their lives except Geelong. Hope they go out in straight sets. Too many soft H & AW games.

You would play a fit Jesse Hogan next week against Carlton if available. Wont happen obviously. We would certainly get him OOC for light coin. If he had an injury free season kicked goals and May stopped street fighting we 'd win the flag blindfolded.

Great to see the W. Bulldogs gone for 2022. Just goes to show that cheating and getting the rub of the green week in week out doesnt pay dividends. Couldnt of watched if we played them in an elimination final with the umpires applauding Bont as he runs down the race. Grossly overated team. 2016 flag was a fluke assisted by the maggots. I wish posters would stop saying the other clubs have figured us out everytime we lose. What if Geelong lose to the Suns in QLD. Its possible.Theyre not the same team away from the cattery. Are you going to say the Suns have 'worked them out'.

Are you serious? There would be hundreds of brilliant child athletes in America and Europe that have never heard of the Commonwealth games. Its embarrassing. Dump it. Give me AFL in Bangkok anyday. Even the Corporate Olympics are boring. Gold medals? Who did those social media knobs beat? Embarrassing . Bring on Carlton next week. Thats action

Yes , but only in September.

Swans get North second time round. % booster will put them ahead of us. We win one more game and we finish in the MCG home finals bracket 4,5 and 6.(assuming Geelong are 1 which they will be playing eagles at the cattery in r23.) If we hit our best we could win the flag from 5 or 6 or 2nd. Why not? We finish 6 we get a weaker opponent than finishing 1st or 2nd. Much better finishing top2 but can be done in a season like this one re...2016.

Of course we can still win it. Our best is still the best. We need to sort out the backline. Gave up 200+ points against Bulldogs and Pies. Unthinkable in 2021. Forward line is kicking enough goals to win games. Fix the backs and the forwards will deliver. Geelong will tire on the MCG, Lions are pretenders, Swans deserve respect and could go to the big dance and Collingwood are running on 8 cylinders at 200km/h without brakes. Classic Collingwood good average side boistered by massive crowds, intimidated umpires and astonishng run of luck. Wont last.

No problem. Relax. Transfer our home game against Carlton anywhere as long its not at the The G. Max Gawn says constantly that the team bond when they play interstate. Thats true! We dont lose and then Brisbane mob in Qld in r23 ok no big deal.We finish 4th we hit Geelong in the QF. Good chance we win the flag at the MCG. Dont play at the MCG in H & W games with all this PC nonesense especially against the filth. They laugh and they beat us everytime. MFC do it every year against them. Wake up. Bangkok City calling you. Stop being so nice all the time. Do Collingwood care??
