Jaded No More

And this is why you keep your mouth shut

I can smell them winning big now. They have all the momentum. We are playing pathetic football.

We are in trouble here. We won’t win this in a close one. Pies are full of confidence. We are playing what can only be described as brain dead football.

Pies have us exactly where they want us. We are playing cute pathetic football.

They’re literally kicking every goal out of their [censored]

Fix the defensive game in the middle and tighten up down back and we got this.

Hibbo having a shocker. How can we possibly let this ordinary side get goal after goal. Such poor defensive effort in the midfield.

They score everytime they go inside 50

Our ruckman have done some embarrassing things

Let’s kick a few early goals and shut up those toothless halfwits. Pathetic brain dead lot.

I agree. But I finish work at 5. Most people don’t.

Absolutely woeful weather. Goddamn Victoria. It was glorious yesterday.

Currently at work and it's light cloud with small patches of blue skies... I am about 25km from the G.

You are right, I have no idea of the nature of his mental health, and I did not suggest he is faking it. I just find it odd that it wasn't until a journo prompted him to comment on it, that he suddenly said, oh yeah it's taken a toll. Seems very convenient. I have all the empathy in the world for anyone who is battling mental health issues. I have no empathy for clowns who put themselves firmly in the limelight and when they don't receive the reaction they hope for, they conveniently say how difficult it's been. Was it also his poor mental health that caused him to post defamatory Tik Tok videos talking trash about women?! Collingwood has a long history of letting their players get away with pathetic behaviour off the field. Ginnivin seems like another in a long line of absolute tools, who is being encouraged by his club and the fans to behave poorly.

Really? I am having a dig at mental health, because I think it's ludicrous for every second player to come out and hide behind mental health every time they have to deal with a negative narrative? That is the epitome of minimising mental health, and it actually takes away from those who truly are battling mental health issues. He was fair game getting stuck into Gawn, but he can't cop it the other way? Give me a break. A kid who really is suffering from mental health issues, is not putting himself out there like he has. He was happy to cop the praise, so he needs to be happy to cop the negativity coming his way. As for violence, I said I hope he gets tackled high for no frees. I did not say I hope we injure him. Get off your weird high horse.

Hopefully both, simultaneously, and no free. I despise that kid. Cries about his mental health, but has carried on like a pork chop all season... make your bed and all that.

Gawn down with a serious ankle injury, basically unable to move at FF for a half.

I don't like it, because I don't like arrogance. I hope we win, or this comment will look even sillier, considering they have the wood over us.

The messiah has spoken

Didn't have to play on May last time... that helps. We need to beat them. There is nothing more to say.

I’m happy with this. Gus to play more midfield which strengthens us even more considering Adams is out for the Pies Please just smash them!

I don’t like this from Ed. I prefer to let the footy do the talking. It’ll look pretty stupid if we lose now.

I think we use the sub as much to give the in-form VFL guys a taste and to say "you are really close", as we do for tactical reasons. While I agree that I would play a tall as a sub given we are missing Tmac and have nobody who can swing back to defend, I can also see the value in Harmes being sub, as he can play a number of different roles. He allows us to also shuffle the mids/forwards and potentially send someone down back if we need a hand there. Edit: I actually think Smith would be a great sub.

All I can say is, good luck to Jackson. The grass isn’t always greener. You have no idea how good you have it at Melbourne.
