  1. Plenty, same with Geelong. And ya don't want to be at the bottom of the ladder when Tassie comes in. Be stuck there like we were and the teams up the top will be stuck there like Geelong and Hawthorn when the 2 you mentioned come in..
  2. That's how we roll. Dare I say it .... Boring.
  3. Go young fella. Great goal , great celebration.
  4. I don't know how the father/son rules work. All I know is that I watch the players sing the song after games with armfuls of kids and there are too many girls for my liking.
  5. Spent my whole life as a melbourne supporter, I don't have to imagine. And our gameplan while somewhat effective is ugly AF and a tough watch. And that's if we're playing well. Every game is a grind .... For me as well. Goodwin is wasting the careers of our guns and the best big marketing opportunity we've had for 59yrs playing boring unattractive footy. If this club wants to survive long term we've got to get bums on seats, eyes on TVs, which will excite and expand the membership base and create more lucrative sponsorships. We've got to entertain the mob. Not bore them to tears using a rugby union type maul for the gameplan. There, I said it. Rant Over.
  6. Freo for Dogga.
  7. Similar to knowing you've 4goal wind coming every game.
  8. Watched it again after posting it. Dunno what it is, no matter how may times I see it, right toward the end of the 3rd Qtr my eyes start watering. Strange phenomenon I thought might go away but seems to be lingering. Also makes me feel happy and warm so that's a plus.
  9. Despite my comment about his GF address being disjointed babble I do think this is fair. He might be eccentric but he can't be a mug. His results are far better than that.
  10. Whenever I think of Bevo I think of the different halftime instructions Goodwin and Bevo gave to their players. Goodwins message was clear and concise whereas Beveridge was a disjointed old school babble.
  11. The defence saved our arzes so often through the middle of the season during 2021 it wasn't funny.
  12. There was another similar in the 1st half. On the rebound from half back a player running down the wing (not sure who) crying out for someone to lead at him and all our forwards got their backs to him bolting to the goal square. It was like they didn't want it. That ended up being a bomb to no-one.
  13. I knew the game was over as soon as we let Hipwood and Daniher kick the 1st 2 goals. My only surprise was that Charlie Cameron didn't kick the 3rd. No surprise Nibbler got our 1st. Does that quite often.
  14. Meh ... What happens in the gameday thread stays in the gameday thread. We're there to share the highs and the lows with fellow tragics.
  15. OMG. On Nightshift tonight and I'm skipping my pre-work nap for this garbage. Gonna be a looong night
  16. And forken Daniher. All we need is Cameron now cutting loose. Not looking good.
  17. He's a liability in my Supercoach side ATM too.
  18. Let's go Woey. Stamp yourself son.
  19. Forken Daniher. Don't need those 2 clowns getting their tails up. As they tend to do against us.
  20. Nice gather from Strop.
  21. As a young fella with Essendon supporting relos I remember being excited and happy for them when they won the flag in '84, was a huge party that night. Those same relos and essendon supporters in general then proceeded to rub their success in my face for the next 30yrs solidifying my hatred for the club. These days I work with a couple essendon supporters in their early 20s who don't remember being successful at all and I love to listen to the disappointment in their club. Showed me where their next generation of supporters are psychologically. Fair to say I bathe in their miserable tears.
  22. Fork Essendon. Long may they wallow at the bottom of the ladder.
