Fork 'em

Agree. I find it abit cringy myself. Win it 1st. Glory pics with it after.

Yeah, nah. Suffers from depression apparently. Go figure.

The AFL TV fixture is a lop sided disgrace these days favouring the clubs with the most supporters. They forked up by gifting Carlton prime time games the last couple years for a start. Hope Essendon who got the gift this year after a mediocre season last year prove to be a similar flop. Other than that the congested nature of the game these days is garbage to the eye. I'll sit through ours but I never bother sitting through anyone elses anymore.

And what a day to turn up. That goal of his will live in the hearts of bulldogs fans for eternity. Probably worth the coin in the following years memberships alone.

That's the game plan man. Goody calls it chaos ball. I call it mindless rubbish.

Problem is. No snow this time of year.

Yeah , city folk are soft AF.

I agree with him. For eg. you had the St.Kilda president Rod Butterss making key club decisions while off his face on coke and alcohol. Wouldn't put it past Gill. And then you have a bunch [censored] journo muck rakers like purple and slobbo. Who knows what those clowns get up to in the dunnys on brownlow night. It's about running a clean and fair workplace. Cant just test the blue collars while the white collars do what the fork they want. And yeah, I'm a bogan. No cheese platter at the footy for me.

I'd suggest Riewoldt is the bloke who spoke to Thomas (as they were close) about the drug culture at the Aints and when Thomas come under fire for his comments felt the need to back up his comments .... Sort of.

Some big names there from the old mans tales of the glory days.

As always Wankerfields just thinking about his filling his wallet. "Here he comes , dressed by Kanye West."

Me thinks Eddie protests too much. I heard a rumour a while back it was his mob dodging tests with mental health issues.

With Lyons outdated game plan and freos slow ball movement I reckon he'll find it tough. Gonna have 3 blokes standing next to him whenever the ball comes in and we know how Hogan loves that.

Did sound like that. But hell, Lary Gyon used the old mental health chesnut to hide from the media after banging his best mates missus for a couple years. So its got multiple uses.

I know of 1 bloke who missed a finals series cause of "mental health" issues. Can't have the biggest name in the game tarred with the drug brush can we.

I'd like to see you playing in that heat. And it'll still be 38deg at 4 o'clock don't you worry about that.

A mad collingwood supporter at work thinks Adams is an overrated turnover merchant.

Mason Cox is a pretty average footballer. Still causes big headaches.

Reckon JKH played his best game for the club just before the finals and got dropped to make way for returning players the following week. Reckon he was abit stiff. Hope he can continue the good form, fridays hitout sounds promising for him.

This one has got to be mine for similar reasons. I've got 3 kids, 15 down to 11years old, its been some terrible curse but we hadn't seen a win live since Bailey was coaching. Whatever game I took them to, we'd get done. Didn't matter who we played. Makes for a long 7hr round trip lemme tell ya. I took them to the ANZAC and Queens Birthday games last year to let them experience a large crowd at the G as most of the one we've watched have only been half full at best or at the soulless Etihad. I asked my young bloke who's 13 after the Queens Birthday game what he thought of the noise the big crowd makes. He said "Yeah, but it's always the other teams." And he was right, we'd watched 'em all run over us. My youngest daughter had never actually seen a win live. Broke my heart as they've had it tough in the school yard them kids. Took them to the Elimination final and not only was the crowd mostly Melbourne supporters for a change. It was us doing the damage. We were also in Mitch Hannans pocket and he put boot to ball right in front of us. The noise and the sea of raised fists in the air when it went through was something to behold. I can still see the look on my kids beaming faces. Un forken real .... The monkeys off the back.

I was the same watching with my young daughter who had seen stuff all wins. We hit the front with what 20secs left in the game. She says, "20 seconds left dad. We're gonna win." I said " 20 seconds is a lifetime darling, anything could happen." And I went cold as the nightmare unfolded.

Where to begin ...... There's been so many. 87 prelim. 88 GF. 2000 GF. Losses against bottom side Carlton when challenging for top 4 in around 04. The semi final against adeleaide at the G when we went on a rampage through the 2nd and 3rd qrs to be overrun in the last. Neil Danihers last game as coach when essendon got us in the last minute. The collingwood loss in the last game 2yrs ago. Last years Prelim was right up there. Best contested team in the comp and just did not give a yelp. Any loss against Essendon. And don't get me started on the yo, yo YEARs for disappointment. The list could go on and on.

He kicked that right in front of us and it still give me chills every time I watch it. And can you believe there were Melbourne supporters behind us telling us us to "Sit down in front." As you see in the clip, the crowd was up as soon as the geelong bloke fell over. If ya gonna biatch about people standing up when we've just nailed the coffin shut in a long awaited final, stay home and watch it on TV. Near lost my sheet I tells ya.

Tracs looking fit.
