Jaded No More

But what if success is his priority?

Last two times we played that ground we suffered serious season ending injuries. Coincidence or [censored] ground?

My only issue with McKay is the cost. He signed a mega contract that we would essentially need to take on. Not sure he’s worth it.

He was

Max is so much more than just a great ruckman tho. I think he will leave a big hole on and off the field.

But he’s 32 next year. His time is limited but our window is not. West Coast are a decade off a flag.

Why would anyone pick West Coast over Melbourne Genuine question

It’s been a great year for the AFL’s cash flow. It’s been a poor year for the fans unless you barrack for Pies or Blues. Umpiring quality at an all time low. MRO a joke. ARC a disgrace. Channel 7 coverage and commentary an insult to the eyes and ears. Game day experience at the ground loud and annoying. Ease of purchasing finals tickets negative ten. Yes record attendance and memberships, but how much of that is post Covid buzz and big clubs seeing success again (especially Pies and Blues), and how much of it is sustainable long term without proper investment in the quality of the above. From my point of view, I’ve never felt more disillusioned or disengaged from the AFL. I am invested in our club, but finding it harder and harder to stay involved beyond the 3 hours a week in which we play.

No it wouldn’t. It would show you how poorly Richmond’s midfield is going to be next season. Yze will probably use Harmes in a run with role to limit the damage of quality opposition mids, since Richmond can no longer compete with them head to head.

Nothing surer than 1- we play Geelong once in Geelong 2- we play West Coast once in Perth 3- we play Essendon as the away team 4- we get to play an SA team during gather round 5- we get multiple 6 day breaks in a row 6- we get back to back interstate trips

Google Jordan De Goey. You’ll have a night full of fun reading.

I feel like in a survey of 100,000 AFL fans who aren’t Collingwood supporters, 90%+ would say they dislike the Pies. Have you ever been to a game against them? I have. Their fans are vile. Their ex president is vile. Their organization supported systemic racism for decades. They applaud thugs like Maynard and Cox and alleged sex offenders like De Goey, while they cheer opposition players laying unconscious on the ground. The only embarrassing nonsense is you trying to convince a forum of Melbourne fans that Collingwood is not a despicable team and that we should somehow be happy they won a premiership?

I think you can objectively say Pies finished first and won a flag and you can also say they are one of the least liked premiership side in the history of the AFL. An actual sex offender got to win a medal today. Jesus wept.

Well at least centrelink outlets are safe tonight

I applaud your positivity. But perhaps you should read the room 😂

At least with daylight savings tonight we have one less hour of celebrating this [censored] to endure.

The world is full of injustices. Bad things happen to good people and good things happen to people who should rot in hell. The AFL is no different. Maynard won a flag while Gus still doesn’t know if he’ll be allowed to play ever again, and De Goey has also won a flag while women are watching on wishing he was in jail for what he did to them.

It WOULD have been us if we had any sort of luck with injuries.

This. He wanted a good feel story to end his endless reign of terror. Don’t forget pick 3 to Norf for McKay on your way out you piece of dog****.

Season 2023 can go and just [censored] RIGHT OFF Don’t let the door hit you on the way out Gil you absolute [censored] sucking garbage administrator. And take your ****ty umpiring, MRO and ARC with you.

This has been one of the worst seasons I can remember and that includes seasons where we were at rock bottom. I’ve never hated the AFL more. I really am struggling to stay invested.

If there is a god Collingwood lose by 1 point due to [censored] kicking for goal. But we all know there is no god.

Call me when someone breaks his leg

Turned on the second half. Saw Maynard get a free for taking a player high. Turned off. [censored] the AFL is a really insufferable game these days.

For the first time in over 20 years I’m not going to actively watch the game. I’ll check the scores and if it looks like Brisbane are going to win I’ll turn it on and bask in the glory of the Collingwood players and fans crying tears of sadness.
