Fork 'em

I'm struggling watching us week after week. And we're supposed to be good. This week I watched the 1st half. Half time I decided I wasn't gonna waste the whole afternoon watching this boring sheet and so headed to the back yard. I get out there and Nathan Brown's on the radio talking about the Aints making the game a boring scrap in order to stay in touch with us. I'm there thinking "BS, it's us who turn games into boring scrap .... Every forken week, no matter who we play." And we're supposed to be good. Goodwin is wasting the golden window to build this club boring us all to tears. And then we lose to teams like West Coast led by a kid. We might not be as far away from another flag than the aints but we're drifting away, not closer.

Harvey Norman clanger.

Not that I do much watching of opposition unless they're playing us. I gotta go with Toby Green too. Plays on the ragged edge and ya just never know what he's gonna do. Dazzle with some brilliance or kick somebodies head off.

I'm on my way. 2024 and the outbreak of squealing Karens is forked .

He was near stationary. Both feet planted. In this new world he might get a couple weeks cause the bloke was KO'd but the Karens calling for his head need to get a grip. Play on I say.

Twice I've teared up watching footy and I posted both of them. His after the siren goal to finish the season on top for the 1st time in my life. And then the moment I knew he was taking us to the GF with his running bomb in the Prelim. Both against Geelong 😅 Good times.

Now I didn't watch the Eagles religiously when Cox was playing but I don't remembering him taking control of games like Gawn does. He might've at times but not like Max, or as regularly. And it's a travesty that he probably won't win a Brownlow.

As NFL coach Mike Ditka once said, "New coaches need to win and win early."

Both practically identical.

They also had their pants pulled down out've the blocks by Grundy and the Swans in Rd 1. Or was it Rd 0 ... I dunno .... Forking stupid.

Every week Windsor does something that reinforces the fact he's gonna be an absolute ripper. His quick reaction to toe poke Vineys lunge over the defenders shoulder was forking brilliant. And watching Gawn launch one of his bombs is one of the best sights in the game.

Firstly ..... Thursday games suck. Was on arvo shift tonight so only managed to only see the 3rd qtr and then the last when I got home. Small mercies I guess. 2nd .... I saw Goodwin talk about earning respect from the football public after last weeks game. Prime time free to air TV, everybody watching and we stink it up like that. That's not how you earn respect. As I said I was at work so didn't see the 1st half but I had every-one in the joint gleefully giving me updates. Sure they'd changed their tune by the end but the big comeback fell short. But ya know what, though frustrating I saw a team working as a team to the final siren. And if they keep doing that, well that's all I can ask for. I can't fault their commitment. Just gotta strap ourselves in to see if we stay fit and then good enough in the big moments often enough. Yeah we got our foibles but so does every club. We're in this marathon up to our eyeballs. See if we can kick straight when it counts.

Suspected we'd be in trouble when I saw BT giving Fritta a tongue bath pre game. We love the bathwater. Been on it all week I suspect.

Smoke and Mirrors. The way of the world.

I'll replay it for years. One for the ages up there with Jack Watts QB effort.

Been taking notes from Serena Williams.

Lever's in career best form. Has it on a string ATM. As for the young fellas coming in to the team now with the mature leadership directing them around the ground. Blokes who have been there, done it and respected throughout the game, Gawn, Viney, Trac, Oliver, May and Lever. Think back to when Neeld was Coach. Right now he'd be thinking of making Windsor the captain.

Good onya captain hindsight.

That Myers does not waste a kick.

What a goal Fritta.

Not a good advert for Chocko's footys.

Like watching a car accident in slow motion.

5.14 Folks. We are a hard forken watch. Does my head in.
