Jaded No More

I am assuming only SA members got an email... I think getting one knowing we can't go would be like a stab to the heart. I seriously can't believe this is how 2021 is going to pan out. What a total dumpster fire.

Wines had more disposals overall this year, which is why I mentioned the stat sheet. I think Oliver and Bont have been match winners multiple times this year. The others haven't. Miller and Walsh and to a lesser extend Steele all play for average teams which doesn't help. If you ask me Miller has had a better year than all of the above except Oliver. To do what he does in a team that gets smashed nearly every week is very very impressive.

The Brownlow is also a joke of an award. That only midfielders win it says it all.

Not only have we won this stat by a mile, we also played the most amount of games against the top 8 sides along with GWS. Gotta wonder how that happened considering we didn't even make the 8 last year!

Oh I totally agree. I mean you can mount a case for Jones and Jetta too. But I haven't ruled Hunt out. If he can recover, he will come back. Nobody has made a strong claim for his role, and he can absolutely play more defensively if we need him too and let Bowey play more attacking. And Bowey may tire anyway. I haven't written Hunt off yet!

People who keep calling for Gus to be dropped don’t understand our game plan or his role at all.

As I said. He has been sensational and so has Walsh. However Oliver leads them both in score involvements, contested possessions (by a mile and he’s broken the record for most ever in a season) and clearances. Oliver also averages more tackles per game. So considering the votes went to another inside mid, it is quite baffling given Oliver is statistically a better inside mid.

Two trash publications where votes are often handed out by hack journalists who look at the stat sheets. Absolute BS. Wines and Walsh have had great seasons, but Clarry is better than them both. Statistically and otherwise.

May has waited his whole career to play finals. He’s 29. He would have felt immense happiness at that moment. In fact when Gawn marks it, May is behind him on the goal line (assuming set play to take away a defender) and he’s jumping up and down and then goes over to Gawn to pump him up.

Seriously for 10,000 people we are robbing Melbourne of the clear advantage of playing at the MCG?! What a joke.

I’m gonna mail myself over. Aus Post will no doubt deliver me a day too late. But worth a try.

Avoid Victoria at all costs. Our airport was an exposure site a few days ago. Safer to fly to WA then to SA from there 😂

I can’t believe I’ll have to watch this game at home by myself 😭😭😭😭😭😭

What did David King say?

And people cried that we over paid for him. Lol.

Hopefully not 😂

That is brilliant. I’m gonna watch it another 15 times. Good work! May and Gawn at the end 😍

Anyone who wants to support us is welcomed. As a neutral fan you’d surely be backing us and that’s great.

I’m so jealous of our SA demon fans. Get along and cheer hard. Let’s outnumber the Brisbane fans!

How many times can you watch the last minute of the game in one day?… asking for a friend

Remember they don’t have Hipwood anymore. I think their forwards can still stretch us. But as always it comes down to the midfield. We need to match them in contested possessions and clearances. Do that and we win. Their defense will struggle if we keep moving the ball quickly inside 50.

I mean it would be very Essendon-esque to blame the umpires for giving up a 44 point lead halfway through the third quarter. Geelong never tried to win it from there. They just tried defending the lead, which was really stupid against a quality opponent.

I started reading the news. Got depressed. Switched on the mini replays on Kayo. Mood fixed!
