Exactly. If you have even a B grade quarterback with B+ ceiling who could win games with a good line and half decent running game, you sign them up, even for overs.

Jessica Fox take a bow! Never have I been so fired up watching a sport where I had no idea what was going on but still, you could tell what an incredible fightback it was!

Been cranking out Parklife a lot lately 😄

Anyone good?

It might be, it could be, IT IS!!!!

It's a joke and I'm surprised how many people fobbed it off early in the thread with the attitude of 'I don't need to be there for the team to play well', I don't think crowds have a direct impact on performance but it's not about that. It's about sustaining the club and helping it stay healthy off the field for years to come. It was only 10 years ago when we were on our knees and hemorrhaging money like no-one' business the short memory of some people is incredible. To the people don't give a rip about the embarrassing crowd on Sat night who also complain about still playing in Alice Springs, never getting a good fixture with prime time slots and always Sunday 4:40, having home games at Marvel in the past etc there is no such thing as a free lunch so either get on board or be happy with the above.

Are we still talking about this? It's Tuesday night and I'm giving plasma, that was Saturday's issue.

I've never seen so many people happy on this thread about news that doesn't shed light on his future with us, doesn't have an effect on the team and doesn't effect the people who liked it in any way whatsoever! Congrats though Mr Leg.

I reckon give Howes a chance.

This is an ex journo

Yep that's the day

What if Jeffo is a no-go?

I'll ignore the picture but I won't ignore how funny it is.

I feel like whenever we wear royal blue (aside from the alternative strip) we play like the era that colour belonged to.

I always feel like you've been here longer.

Is he not going 'anywhere' or not 'going anywhere'?

People say there's no room for sentimentality in footy and I am more of that thinking but I think there is a little room. Nothing is 100% black or white. Normally I'd prefer to select on merit but if we bomb out completely then I wouldn't be opposed to some kind of farewell/200th.

Well if one thing about a good draw is prime time games I definitely don't want to hear complaining when we don't get them anymore. We got them and people hated it. As for a fair draw I don't care either, just play better or retire.

In the AFL it's never for long.

Honestly, seeing the pre game thread pop up after a loss lately just makes me groan. Still plenty to play for but forget talking selections and all that rubbish, you can all do that.

Happy birthday.

When is it turning up god damn it.

I just wanted more than 20k, that's all. Not all non footy goers are created equal. Some as we've seen in this thread had valid reasons, you reckon the people who piked last night for no good reason would be posting their reasons here? People can do what they wish. However this team gave us the ultimate triumph a few years back, it would kind of be nice to repay the faith with a little more than a sub-par crowd on a prime time game for the country to see. One of the no.1 things I see on this site is how people desperately wanted to be there in 2021 and won't rest until we win it on the G. So it's all take and no give at is it? Is that how this works? Does the team not deserve our support or are we just entitled to support from afar on Kayo and stuff them. What's the point in having fans? Because trust me if the message here is that crowds are stupid and pointless then I've got plenty of better things to do on a Saturday night.

Fabulous effort from the Boomers, still think Brian Goorjian is one of the best basketball coaches we've ever had and I love the fact that he showed them their OT loss to Spain in 2019 before this game. Sad that we couldn't quite get it done in the sevens, really like this version of Rugby.

I think there's a quick bounce for this list if we get the draft and trade absolutely spot on. We should be working at this behind the scenes as we speak. 1 good mid + a couple to add to depth, half decent ruckman/forward with Verell hopefully getting his chance in 25. We just need to absolutely nail this area.
