monoccular

Geez BNE are getting a hell of a lot of very soft frees this Q

It was dumb Joey he ran around. 😂

Maggots told to even things up lest we outdo Sydney on percentage.

Wrong jumper.

Defence needs to steady right now.

Great so far - keep it up and extend

How can a headlock in the guy with the free NOT be a 50 maggot?

What a great fit they would make. PS why the emoji of Mason Cox?😎

2 meter Peter??

I too have hated them long term. Started I think with John Burt staging for frees (in the Bartlett manner, bouncing it as he was tackled) and Geoff Leek infringing in the ruck against Terry Gleeson and Bob Johnson. And now they have totally stuffed up their current coach and aren’t getting Clarkson: surely they will have to pay Rutten out AND find some mug who is prepared to trust these sociopaths to support him. 🍿🍿🍿

And maybe many here would like to see that again, very occasionally 🙄, replacing the long kick to a pack on the left wing.

I guess Clarko has to factor that into his thinking - “will they turn on me if they don’t make finals in, say, 3 years?” Well, we haven’t since 1965 anyway. 🥺 Does anyone have any serious doubts that EssUndone’s coterie group won’t “sort that out”, and of course that the AFL “Integrity Commission 😂😂😂” won’t find that there is nothing out of hand? Goody seems a big fan, as well as a friend. Could he replace Yze as asst if Adem goes? Would he be a good fit, or would being good mates be a negative? Or a positive? Or null? I had a friend who felt likewise. Grew up with Hird stuff all over his room, thought the sun shone from where the nasty stuff eventually hit the fan - and has destroyed all the memorabilia and has not watched a Bombers game since.

Hunty is showing an infectious degree of enthusiasm and seems to be really enjoying playing his rôle. I believe that over the years players 17-25 or so have made the difference between good and great teams

And how do the AFLK "Integrity Commission" 🤗 ascertain that the clubs involved did not gain advantage? WCE must be spitting chips - their season was derailed by their compliance with the protocols. We had a few players standing aside even though they may not have had covid, and this could have effected results. Maybe we should have covered up and essentially made false declarations? Yes RATS are pretty much hit and miss, but the fact is that the clubs signed on to the protocols and in some cases seem to have thumbed their noses fraudulently claiming compliance.

Yes. I watched the replay and Sellerfield actually held arms around Oliver in many stoppages, let alone blocking and punching him in the guts, and was ignored by the maggots (who of course we are supposed to respect - well, guys, earn respect)

I must say I haven’t followed Rutten’s career much. What was his apprenticeship with what areas of responsibility? Would he make a midfield or a forward coach? I realise he was an ex defender but that could prepare his as a forward coach.

My thoughts too neitz - no match preparation at all. Wishful thinking really.

I agree entirely. I just wish people would not reply. How stupid are they?

Like Neil Crompton was by the late great Norm Smith for leaving the back line in the 1964 GF. 🤗❤️💙❤️💙🏆

In an ideal world ….. but AFL is a dollar driven business, not a sport as such. So “blockbusters”, “derbys” and of course not ever having “big clubs” play at KITTYLITTER Park rules a fair and equitable schedule out completely. It would “endanger the integrity of the game”, and Gil’s bonus.

Must make Rutten feel really valued Maybe he should resign and leave them coachless Anyone know Peter Wright’s contract status??

Of course he is - every player is at this stage of the season. No indication that there is anything worrying though.

To Those seeing him as a defensive forward - has he trained with this group and would he immediately (finals are upon us) fit in? I personally could see him as a wing (for JJ) - he is far more dynamic and creative (at the moment) than JJ who does seem to wait just that little too long. I love JJ’s efforts and courage but needs to think quicker.

No. What we should all be hoping for to bury is Brisbane, for starters. What a pathetic meaningless thread.

Hallelujah. Maybe like many he thinks Beverage is a weird grumpy old man.
