Coach with Aging Team Wants Shorter Quarters
Dr. Gonzo replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
I disagree completely. 16 a side should have happened 10 years ago. -
I agree however we've had an OK run this year I reckon - other teams will point to Spargo (ducking) Oliver (throwing) etc Dogs can do what they want but they can't handle pressure when teams like us bring it, they fall to pieces
-
First season was 2014? Played against the Hawks in the GF and got smashed. So this is his 8th season.
-
Doggies don't like teams that bring pressure. Tigers, us and now Swans have found them wanting. They look good racking up 100 point wins against bottom feeders but not sure they'll get the ultimate success unless they find a harder edge.
-
And they throw and flop with the best of them
-
Two things - Carna Swans and how did we lose to the Giants?
-
They've played 1 finals game there against Freo in 2016? because there were 4 games inelbiurbe that weekend. They will never have a final against another Vic team down there and even against interstate teams it's questionable.

Coach with Aging Team Wants Shorter Quarters

Oh [censored] off Scott, geelong games feel too long because your team is boring to watch. I don't think anyone was complaining that our game on Thursday went too long. Always sooking about something, oh waaaa we have a 5 day break - yes every team has one. I also loved the article mentioning geelongs tough road trips in the lead up to finals without mentioning their last 3 games are in Geelong and they always play in Geelong in the last round. Absolute sook, sick of him whinging all the time. Gerard Whateley is slways pushing this agends too and if Brad Scott takes over Hockings role, look out. No supporters have said they want shorter games, have they? How about listening to your constituents instead of sooking coaches.- 61 replies

Nice win Sainters. Now for the Swans tomorrow ?

What a [censored] was always holier than thou then it came out he was paying multiple women for a bit on the side for decades. Such an honourable man, can't stand him. https://www.smh.com.au/national/im-a-weak-hypocritical-sleaze-hunts-call-on-paid-sex-20060518-gdnkgj.html

Better than when he called the Gold Coast Suns the Gold C****s
-
Such a shame, in non covid times a year like this would see us nudging 60k I reckon. Bad timing.
-
Bartel is fantastic I reckon.

Lock in B thanks Eddie

Anyone who wants a laugh at Hamish McLachlans expense as well as an insight as to what a [censored] he actually is check out the "rompingwins" thread on Big Footy Plus there's the episode of AFL game day when he joked with Trent Cotchin about the time he ran over Cotchins dog. True story. Oh and who could forget this https://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/tv-and-radio/channel-7s-hamish-mclachlan-criticised-for-embracing-colleague-monika-radulovic-20160109-gm2gli.html

Impossible to limit to 5. No-ones even mention Dwayne "Firestarter" Russell yet.
-
Yeah, good call BDA. You'd just love to see him get involved. /Lingy
-
Agreed, I thought he was on his last legs but he has been fantastic since returning to the side earlier this year.
-
I feel its been noticeably pathetic since 7 got the rights back from 9 and 10. Channel 7 no longer respect the sport, it's as though the game exists as a vehicle to get over 7's "personalities".
-
If a player does have prior opportunity they must correctly dispose of the ball.
-
I think it's because there is no prior opportunity - if a player is tackled without prior opportunity and the ball "spills free" in the tackle and the tackler doesn't let go it is holding the man. Goes against the spirit of the rule when the player just drops it though, should be play on probably.
