The Cult of Disco Turner

The not 15 [censored] needs to get fixed it is driving me nuts.

We’ve been very sloppy and it’s a one goal game (should’ve been 1 point). Im still optimistic.

Nick Watson is a little rat.

It’s not happening this year mate. Move on.

Would just remind folks that within the last 5 weeks we’ve had plenty of posters suggest that Viney and Melksham are past it and Petty is useless. Now it feels devastating that they’re all out. Hopefully JVR and Jeffo surprise us and we all hope they’re in the side the rest of the season.

Viney injured Melk managed

I’ve been trying to figure out why the media is so intent on picking on our club constantly. There are obviously many reasons but I think this thread provides an example of another one—we have a shocking number of supporters who are clearly ready to throw our own people under the bus at a moment’s notice. How about we “knuckle down” and get on with circling the wagons around our own, not paying attention to media vultures, and backing in a young man who has raised his hand to say he’s not alright.

“He’s the future, clearly, Langford.“ My goodness someone please tell Jay Clark he’s not talented enough to try writing in whatever “style” he thinks this is.

It’s May, so I’m a bit confused why he or his camp would be talking about this already—especially to Tom Morris. I’m not going to say it won’t happen, but given Tom Morris’s last “scoop” about Trac’s speech I’m gonna take this with several grains of salt.

Wow—very happy I was wrong!

It shouldn’t be but it almost certainly will be a suspension for Melk. Big club outrage + media pushing a narrative = small club non-superstar player suspended.

I think it needs to be said that Goody and the coaching staff deserve massive credit for the way they have been able to get players to adjust and respond in 3rd quarters. You can bag Goody for many things but good coaches know how to make half time adjustments and we’ve been doing an excellent job of that in recent weeks.

I know it’s very very early in the year but it would be funny if the early season media darlings lost to our absolute circus of a team next week and pushed them out of the current 8.

Think it’s just the same thing with every footy personality or whatever you want to call them—we’re an easy target. Relatively small club which means they won’t cop any major pushback like they would if they went after a big 4 club but still famous enough that people will pay attention to stories about us. Stereotype of rich/posh supporters and not considered a loveable “second team” so nobody else wants to defend us like they might with St Kilda or Footscray.

We are horrific.

DANGER GAME!!!

Nah I think the ultra competitive ladder everyone predicted coming into the year is just taking starting to take shape. Any given week it feels like there are very few clubs that can’t pull off a win.

I sure hope the media talk about this Saints Marvel crowd the way they obsess over ours. Maybe 10k people maximum?

Thanks for the heads up—I warned my partner so that she can start mentally preparing for me to moronically yell at the TV more than usual.

Play on for a last minute potentially game winning kick for goal…

I mean…if he wants to go be apart of that binfire then more power to him. Their disaster of a “rebuild” makes us look like a phenomenally managed club.

Have to assume Disco or Petty I suppose

Wow, no Roo…that’s a choice.

So looking back at this thread idk if anyone heard but it sounds to me like some people think this game may be a danger game…

If he gets us a home base and stays away from footy operations, fine by me.
