Fork 'em

Harsh but true.

No composure. No class.

Forget the second gamer. Where are the Forken captains?

Not the difference but we're sure getting the rough end of the pineapple.

Yep, marked their cards tonight myself. Lever can't come back quick enough.

No class.

Karma is garbage.

As long as draft picks are allocated to where you finish on the ladder tanking will be a thing. As I stated somewhere earlier. I remember a year or 2 ago seeing Slobbo himself stating that it would be unwise for the Lions to win another game.

And my cigar......

At the time the whole football community thought it was either Watts or Nik Nat for picks 1 & 2. Scully and Trengove for 1 & 2. Could rewrite history and say they were bad picks but no-one thought so at the time. IMO we just lucked out with poor draft years for top end talent. And FWIW ..... I see Watts and Nik Nat as par picks due mainly to NN injuries. We did however fail dismally with all the picks further down.

I see Tony Shaw has had something to say about Hirds time at Essendon. And who's come to defend Hirds honour? You guessed it. Hirdys biggest fan .... Slobbo. Also seems we're not allowed to talk about it anymore as Hird has had mental health issues. https://www.news.com.au/sport/afl/collingwood-greats-scolding-reality-check-for-james-hird/news-story/3a09fe7f86fefe57356ed962f7935388

Fork I hate Essendon. Hope we smash those clowns tonight and forever more.

And when to print it.

If we hadn't have tanked. I woulda been pizzed.

Considering both Schwab and Connolly (not to mention Jimmy Stynes) are great mates of Lyons from the MFC boys club I find his reaction annoying. As if he didn't know what they were up to. 1st hand no less. But we all know about Garrys character. https://www.news.com.au/sport/afl/horrible-demons-greats-react-to-fresh-report-on-melbourne-tanking-saga/news-story/93a084ab43922919802e4dc9f60de6e3

And I remember only a couple years ago Slobbo suggesting himself that it would be unwise for the Lions to win another game. The hypocrisy is astounding.

I care about biased journalism. Fake news from the Essendon fanboy.

You reckon Hawthorn and Collingwood think their flags are tainted?

Their bias just has no bounds does it. Not to mention the odd upshorts pic.

So the clown who ticked off Slobbos 10yr old article for todays front page is also a Essendon supporter. Surprise, surprise. Of course they ignored their drugcheat clubs cover-up. Slobbo even thinks his needle wielding mate Hird should coach them again. FMD, what a joke.

Yes.

Hawthorn got Hodge, Lewis, Franklin and Roughhead. Collingwood picked up Pendlebury and Dale Thomas in '05 after playing off with the lions in '02 and '03 GF. Carlton won both the Gibbs and Kruezer cups. West Coast played in the' 05 and won the '06 GFs only to pick up Nic Nat at pick#2 in '08. And we were the ones who got lynched by the media. Now during the week Slobbo throws out his good mate drug cheat Hirds name again as a "potential" replacement for Worsfold. And then has the gall to drag up our tanking labelling it Footys Biggest Cover-up on the front page the very day we meet his precious drug cheating footy club. What a Forking joke of a biased journalist.

Even in those 2 finals we won we butchered it going forward with little composure. We had a good 1st and last qr against Geelong. We made a mess of the 2nd and 3rd when we should have put them away. Hawthorn game was similar and then West Coast put our 1 dimensional game plan to the sword when they knew every ball was gonna go in high and long.

Whereas I think Goodwin knows we have no-one in the midfield who can really deliver to forwards at an elite level so has just gone with the bomb it in there as often as you can and hope for the best mentality.
