  1. Hated St Kilda from sitting next to their feral cheersquad in the '98 finals until I felt bad for them losing that Grand Final in heartbreaking circumstances (even though they cost me the quarter quad), so in their place I can't go past Essendon. Always disliked Sheedy, and when they went into full 9/11 conspiracy mode after the drug stuff that sealed the deal. Second place Geelong. Collingwood is like Cold Chisel, a perfectly fine organisation with lots of hits on the board but dragged down by being associated with nuffies. Too young for that to be my fight, I appreciate them for giving us the decade of free revenue from Queen's Birthday. See also Hawthorn, who have a lot of nuff fans but they saved us from ourselves in '96 so it's hard to hold a grudge. You are welcome to despise them.
  2. At which point the reporters will say "no worries", turn left to Collingwood training and take a video that gets 10x the views.
  3. He probably changed his mind and didn't want to be involved after seeing how we played.
  4. Interested to see how they go from a three, potentially four man leadership group back to two. Maybe the only votes they got were for Gawn and Viney? Good move, anyone who needs a title to be a leader shouldn't be one.
  5. North's forward structure was dreadful, not going to get gifts like that every week. Not much good that came out of this other than a win and no injuries, but good to get a game into everyone. Brayshaw's first half was ordinary but he was instantly better for the run after half time. Loved Forward Fritsch too.
  6. For an SEN website story there's not nearly enough wacky predictions. You're supposed to say Gold Coast will finish fifth and Collingwood 14th to make sure everyone furiously clicks through and Hutchy gets the ad revenue. Back to Clickbait College for Kane.
  7. Hopefully it goes through the Herald Sun offices and clickbait is cancelled.
  8. Watching that you can understand how footy players go off the rails when their career ends and they're suddenly not part of a group anymore.
  9. I was pessimistic before last week because going 0-2 would have put us in a huge hole, but after winning these two games and having Lauren Pearce and Lily Mithen to come back in the only thing that concerns me is the lack of an accurate forward target. Difficult conditions the last two weeks but Cunningham has barely fired a shot and Shelley Scott's set shots ruin her excellent work to get to the ball in the first place. Need to follow on from last night and kick goals from a variety of sources.
  10. Daisy and Paxman are superb. If we don't have a genuine tilt at a flag before they go there should be an inquest.
  11. Doomsday scenario is we're 21-0 and the season gets cancelled due to a deadly pandemic
  12. Forget the AFLW debate, what about this: Might be a positive for some but won't do much for me. Current game length worth carting myself across town for, less attractive travelling in and out for 90 minutes of game time. I bet you the AFL will give over to this in a heartbeat in the hope that more people will stay home, the ratings will go up and the next broadcast deal will bring in a motza. Will also ensure we never lose either of the top two record VFL/AFL losses ?
  13. Shocking luck. I know it would be hard to turn back relatively big money but probably getting close to the point where he needs to give it away for his own good.
  14. There's no way they're sending a Victorian team there - imagine having fans from the south, fans from the north and fans from Victoria all having to be catered for. My prediction is that they won't want 20 teams so a Victorian club will be merged with Gold Coast (ironic if North, but I'd want to keep our finances above float just in case) to pump them up, opening the space for a brand new club to start in Tasmania.
