Jaded No More

He went to the Swans final. We don’t ALWAYS win when he comes but he’s only seen us lose live 4 times. Edit: yes, he’s been to more than 4 games 😂

Maybe he will award Tmac extra frees this week to say sorry.... yeah right!

I think for those of us who go every week without fail, even during the dark times, not being able to be at the game in 2021 really hurts. I want to see a flag, really see it, and I think this is as good a chance as we've ever had. So it it disheartening when you see such a talented list not maximise their strength. But of course this position is infinitely better than the dark days when you were no chance to win a game, let alone a flag. Doesn't mean we can't be critical of the side if they aren't performing at their best.

I am trying to convince my husband to attend this one, since we all know that when he is at the ground, we win. So far, his response was "90,000 Collingwood fans? I'd rather not".

Thank you! We were brilliant from round 1 until the grand final in 2021. We haven’t been the same since and we will probably never see as perfect a season as 2021.

It’s hurting us at both ends of the ground. Underrated king.

Anyone who thinks there is no reason to boo him obviously has no issues with him deciding mid year he was out the door. I think it was a poor move from him and I have no issues with anyone who wants to boo him.

Probably when he takes his first mark. So maybe not.

I reckon if Danny posted it you can take it to your grave. Never wrong. I would say we will hear about it today prior to the team being announced.

Right now our form is not good enough to win the flag. But right now is May and a lot can change between May and September. I remember talking draft picks and delistings in May. This is much better.

And you’d also be guaranteed a soul crushing loss and probable depression. What a time to be alive.

I don’t know why we didn’t mention the weather conditions. Hunter side stepping at speed in the wet could have resulted in a serious knee injury. But who cares right?

Exactly. Next to us are two guys from SA who have reserved seats but don’t turn up often as you expect.

The real question is; when did I get this old? 😭

Can't wait to have one of our key players suspended before finals for a football action.

Once again the AFL gets away with screwing our club with their total BS. I really hate what the AFL has done to our game.

I think we should tho because again the AFL is making stuff up to suit their own narrative and punishing Melbourne players. Far worse actions than this last week, including ones that resulted in injury, didn’t get charged.

This has been a week from hell. Not one thing has gone right for the club.

And to stop making examples of Melbourne players. Sick to death of this rubbish!

Our players get suspended for contesting the footy tho, so I’m not sure what the alternative is. I mean they could put on a Pies jumper and change their name to Daicos then they can punch opponents freely.

WHERE IS THE CARLTON LAWYER?

I really really really hate the AFL. It’s a good thing Melbourne is competitive right now or I would seriously consider walking away. It’s becoming increasingly more difficult to enjoy.

I assume everyone is free Thursday night for another 4 hour appeals process?

I’d love for Steven May to give him a bath when he plays forward and for Gawn to remind him who he learnt his ruck craft form. We don’t need to target him in any other way.

I really like Hunter. Seems like a character. And knows his way around the AFL spin.
