Did you watch the last game ??

This actually needs to be something. Burn these bastards on the pyre of hypocrisy.

Im far from his greatest fan. I'm about Melbourne. The reality is right now the first half dozen games are moot. We aren't playing like that.... tfft The losses hurt... the percentage might come back to bite us . I want to have a competitive team, I want wins. Atm we are that. We can improve. Goody has talked the talk...is walking now. I can see purpose in watching how rest of season pans out. Finals... may or may not be a bridge too far. Not where I put the line.. The line is relevance, persistence and momentum. Let's see how we go

If there was ever a sliver of thought that Collingwood are nothing but a bunch of [censored] ... well... that's gone !!

10 to 1 ..emergency

Bound to be a slog/ arm-wrestle. That said it's a bit of acreage to tie up.. Lyon knows he has to bottle us up....or get carved up. I see it more as StKilda trying to negate us more than us stopping them. Interesting tussle awaits ...

< > 🤷‍♂️

This may surprise some ( possibly won't others ) Right at the moment : I'm enjoying watching us. We've improved considerably. I have no real expectations for the season, but quietly hope we continue and do well. Finals ...whatever. Let's see how it pans out. Learnings, perhaps we have.... Blowtorch on coach can probably be turned off for now. Again, let's see how it pans out. Have we arrived ? No. Beginning of season we were absolute garbage. Totally irrelevant. Currently, relevant and competitive and in the game. As topic defines... We're not dead. So if you're alive, fight. Fight we will. Good. We have something to work with. The list needs improving. Game still needs improvement. Goalkicking... meh.. Let's cast the runes and see.

Someone got a Steele.... There... said it... ( I'll go now )

Thanks for info.. Somehow that doesn't bode well. Beginning to have a Gus feel to it. Don't like this ....

8th place will need 13 wins and 110% imho Might that be us 🤔 🤷‍♂️ If good enough. We'll probably get a clearer picture before the 3 months is up. Crossed fingers and toes

Hence my suggestion of Falcons .. (Dassault that is 😉 ) Jumbos a bit big.... bit impersonal lol

That initiated it. Watching you see him grimace. Having [censored] Mills go into orbit to collect him did him no measure of help. Tough cookie Spargypants

Yes. No disrespect to Jimmy but Max has gone past him. And I bet somewhere there's a certain Irishman grinning ear to ear.

My only real beef.... we all know it... Cats, Blues ,God knows who else does/did it.. Why the f don't we. The AFL is a corrupt organisation that wouldn't know which way is up on any given day. M'Lord..exh A ....the MRO Exh B.. why doesn't Coll ever travel ....I mean to Geelong or anywhere much... a cross town match is only played under sufferance.. Exh C the Home and Away season... nudge nudge , wink wink 😉 Why not play these [censored] at their own game...??? Just cutting off our nose....

You crazy bastard you .....

The hit would have exacerbated the prior niggle to the n-th . Quite frankly the AFL disgusts me with its bias.

Geez... the gurgler awaits. A very over-rated competition.

It certainly enters the realm of possibility. If we don't... hmm.. yeah.. nahh 😞

I can applaud and agree with a lot of your thinking of late sans JVR. You even explain elsewhere why he isn't an automatic replacement/inclusion. His early games/seasons were of one style of game. We've moved on... tgft ... He has yet to adjust . He currently dies not imo constitute the player we need up there. As I also suggested elsewhere he needs to work on his game. Needs to expand it. He also needs more gym if he's to outmuscle/outplay his keepers. If we keep winning and/or keep competing hard ( even if a loss ) then there would have to be an irrefutable argument made to bring in JVR.. He has to show why. He needs to be banging down the doors with b.o.g. type games in the magoos. Not one, a string of them. Let him be the better choice because atm he isn't.

It is indeed a funny old world where you stop and prop when considering Viney returning. As you propose I would only really consider him for that Spargo position. He would play a very different game to Spargy but could certainly apply some demoralising defensive work in the forward arc. I reckon Tommy must be the unluckiest bloke currently. Perhaps should May be given a spell Tmac can return to the backline. I'm reminded of the classic idiom "If it ain't broke don't fix it" That would be the forward setup. Should only look to tweak... not change atm.

Must be for the Victory folk ? lol Stoic work. Get out of the rain and get that coffee...

Some very odd ( poor ) choices of kicking. Now that's not at all on Simon.... but it might prove prudent should he get in the ear of some 😉

Absolutely hilarious ( and true ) There were some grounds where empty beer cans got repurposed.... as mini-stilts. iykyk 😉

Good point . Had forgotten about Andy. Agree he seems the more likely successor atm ( when able ).
