Gorgoroth

I’d love to see a stat on how many of our kick ins lead to another f50 entry. I reckon it would be quite high. Of we kicked elsewhere every 5th it means the opposition would need to be more aware but everyone knows what’s about to happen. Just another thing we do exactly the same each week even once it’s broken.

I could take one on it…

Whilst all the stats look great, it’s always hard to marry two years up. Have we played better or worse teams this year to last etc To me they feel similar because like last year we dominated inside 50’s and our conversion was avg to poor quite often. For me I don’t think our connection to our forwards is great, but I’ve also thought we have been too tall all year. BBB and Fritta should be our talls with Max and Dogga also chiming in. With another tall we are to easy to rebound against.

I always say to them, if they used the money for the upgrades better they could have demolished the tiny shizenstadium and built one made for humans and not ants for the same cost!

What about he who shall not be named?

It’s their home ground. Why would they be complaining?

To be fair, not one cats supporter down this way (that I’ve spoken too, and it’s a lot of them) wants this game on a Thursday night either.

Sure, but he hasn’t smashed May yet…. But he is a decent player, that Petty will smash.

Hawkins is more a threat. two of the last three times he has smashed mays eye and made him pull a hammy.

If the ump department review this game, they will de register these three. Im watching the second half (missed the second half live) and I’m not one to usually speak about them. And it’s not what they gave them, it’s what they didn’t pay. And the most obvious ones. Oliver hit, langers block, Fogarty jumping into petty trying for mark of the year and getting no where near it. Huge throw by Laird. It was as putrid as the umps against tigers last week.

But their is selfish and plain dumb. And that was plain dumb.

I’m so far from confident after last years debacle

Petracca has kicked 20+ points, I wish it was only 11. mind you he should have had a goal last week but Fritta was selfish.

No change for me this week. Roll them into the next game.

In those blunt cases the AFL offical and fourth umpire should send a message to the officiating umpire and they should be sent off. No medi sub allowed either. But the way the umps game the cats everything I’m surprised they didn’t disallow Soldo coming on and instead allow the cats to have 5 on the bench.

So I got home just after 12:30 this morning, so will be one of the few times (if ever again) I bother doing a Thursday game, but I had today off work so wasn’t too bad. The music/flashing lights wasn’t as annoying as I remember (have they turned it down or am I getting more deaf 😂) Beer is horribly over priced at $12 for a mid strength but at least it’s pirate life and not Carlton draught or VB. Only vegetarian options were a pastie and hot chips, no where else I saw had anything different but I may have missed it. Lower costs will help, less crap across the speakers would also be good but I still hate Thursday and Monday games (not PH games of course)

Nine tackles is the big one for me. That’s insane numbers for anyone let alone a young ruckmen.

Went last night with two lions and a cats supporter and half way through the game the cats supporter said to me “Viney is bullying them, they can’t stop him and he is attacking them with or without the ball.” he was right.

I honestly think we won’t be breaking the bank over Jackson. They would be making an offer with Brayshaw and Oliver in mind plus others coming OOC over the next few years.

Wouldn’t hurt if they kicked more goals during games either. I miss the old one on ones during games, I know they are long gone but hell I use to watch Roos vs Eagles just for Carey vs Jackovich

This is even worse, Pink Lady should always be a Saturday night. You get people who want to be a part of the night even if they don’t care for either team. It’s a more worthy cause than most in the AFL and the AFL are shafting it. Being a Thursday 95% of those who would think to go on a Saturday night will not go to the Thursday game. The AFL are so cooked that meth heads look down on them.

So the media have vaguely said without saying it that he is off his face, there was also supposedly footage of him harassing a woman which might have shown him attempting to grope a lady (not sure, thought I read it but haven’t watched any of the videos), it’s more the fact that they don’t think he should be in a situation that could bring him and his club down. And jeopardise a contract he could get. But the AFL can target drug test him if they want, the club could stop him going, but they haven’t and that’s their call. I hope that if he does anything dumb or harmful it is to none but himself.

Acting like a prize goose on a dance floor… sounds like some one knows exactly what that entails eh Ralphy!
