Fork 'em

Oliver thinks so.

No doubt as with the bump Gill the Dill sees tackling as an OH&S issue to be eradicated from the game.

Kent touched upon the answer up the top there. It's not a concern about being greedy or hungry. They're terrified to take the shot and miss. Better to hand over the responsibility to the next bloke than expose their own poor disposal ..... Again.

We were never free flowing. Every goal is from a rugby scrum. Even last year. They were lucky they got abit of confidence at the pointy end but still made hard work of both winning finals. Reverted to form over in Perth.

Players are all B grade battlers and they know it.

"Go Bombers"

Ahhh .... But if your opinion differs to his you'll cop a lecture from the high horse.

Cripps is an absolute beast and has been for a few years. He is Carlton as far as I'm concerned.

I know a couple and 1 rabid bloke that fits the above description. I remember he got all indignant and had his panties in a bunch a couple years ago when someone suggested the Lions actually had a superior list to the Blues.

Nah, Kennett didn't care about footy in those days. Like Gutnick he only took an interest when he become President.

Coulda been. The G was just a huge tin shed back then.

Me either. I got my PSTD from having a toothless homeless wino with a hawks beanie behind me in the '88 GF who screamed, "C'mon .... The Horrible ..... HAAAWKS." from his raspy lungs every couple minutes for the whole forken game. Well till I left for an early train anyway.

Or the inability of the rest to hit a target by hand or foot. Salem excused.

TMac .... Hold your forken marks.

Grand Finalists 2000 to 11th in 2001. Problem was it was still us.

Cause if there's an opportunity to make an injury worse ..... We'll take it.

Been following this club for so long and witnessed so many false dawns I can read 'em like a book. Needless to say I gave up on the year in disgust after Rd5 and refused for the 1st time in 20yrs not to renew my membership and 1st time in 10 not to renew my family membership. Haven't bothered making the 700K round trip for a single game. Only this club embarrasses themselves and their supporters repeatedly like they do. The game plan is garbage, the players skills are garbage and the coach we've locked in for the next 3 is garbage. Can shove his chaos ball up his butt. Last years spike was a fluke. If it wasn't for Brisbanes woeful goal kicking the game today would have been over by the 3rd. Despite their poor kicking we were still in the game till TMac dropped his weekly sitter resulting in a turnover and goal up the other end. Even with 20sec left in the 3rd with the ball deep in our forward line I knew knew we'd cough up a goal before the qr was over. Sure enough, Hipwwod takes a mark in the pocket and kicks another after the siren. Game over. We don't come back from that stuff. Now just watch us get rolled by Carton next week. Can read 'em I tell ya.

Surprise, surprise, another lecture from one of our resident Loonie Lefties. What a load of one-eyed carp. And you wonder why there's push back.

Lol.

Considering Hogan looks to have aggravated his foot again maybe trading him will turn out to be an astute decision. As for the coaching, if players can't pick up the ball cleanly , kick to advantage, handball to teammates in the clear or hold simple marks by now. No coach will fix them. There's nothing wrong with their endeavour, it's their execution of basic skills. We have a side full of habitual butchers. Poor turnovers kill us , time after time. And if the ball does find its way all the way into the hands of our forwards, they struggle to put it through the big sticks. Soul destroying stuff all over the ground. We need to invest in decent recruiters as far as I'm concerned.

We've embarrassingly lost games that we should have won with the opposition 2 rotations down so I'll take the win today.

Goodes pointing out that girl in the crowd, trying to make out his spear thing was some sort of dance people didn't understand, deciding to drop himself for a couple games, retiring and then refusing his lap of honour for retiring players at the "G" were fair examples.

Listen man. The pointing and accusing is coming from all those crying racists. I've stated my reasons I believe it wasn't in previous posts if you want to find them. Couldn't be forked rehashing for you again.

You've got the internet at your fingertips, work it for yourself. But it was before all the BS started.

The irony is you trying to paint it as something it aint.
