  1. I've noted the same. Lack of physical support for teammates. No ones blocking/sheparding etc. And then I hear this. Still, I wouldn't expect them to be happy campers right this minute. I know I'm not.
  2. Judds mum.
  3. Word I get is that things down at the club among some players are not all hunky dory. Some jealousy over who gets paid what. Lost the closeness they had last season which might explain the lack of support for each other. That's what I hear. How very us to self destruct.
  4. Agree totally. Especially with Oliver, noticed him on Heppell and it looked as though Oliver was the tagger. Didn't notice so much with Brayshaw but I'll take your word for it. And Harmes is the only one with what I'd call break away pace. Look at Shiel ..... He ripped us to bits from the centre last night cause no-one could catch him. None of the mids have real good disposal and again I think Harmes is the best of the lot. But as someone stated up top there. If the players around the ground cannot hold a simple mark to save themselves it make things difficult. The backline is pure comedy at the moment and again I saw Omac dropping a mark early that he went for with one hand that he should have gobbled up. We struggle with the basics all over the ground and it was a problem last year aswell. A couple finals wins that we made harder work than we should have just masked the issues.
  5. Need to perform some lobotomies.
  6. What we want and what we get are polar opposites. You want cups ....... That's funny in a dark way.
  7. We always have terrible preseasons. Injuries galore and the players never seem to learn anything from season to season. B grade medicos and coaching dept. B grade players.
  8. He got old 2 yrs ago.
  9. We fair dinkum need Benny Hill music when we play. Especially Frost and Omac.
  10. After some of the real soft stuff early game I actually thought "I'm done with AFL."
  11. A thoopa star of our making.
  12. No composure. No class.
  13. Forget the second gamer. Where are the Forken captains?
  14. Not the difference but we're sure getting the rough end of the pineapple.
  15. Yep, marked their cards tonight myself. Lever can't come back quick enough.
  16. Karma is garbage.
  17. 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.
  18. And my cigar......
  19. 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.
  20. 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
  21. Fork I hate Essendon. Hope we smash those clowns tonight and forever more.
