Very Jaded

This is not our day. Plain and simple.

FOR GOODNESS SAKE 😭

Not our day

This [censored] nobody forwardline all over us. [censored] this season

Putrid. Stick a [censored] tackle

Trac shaking Maynard’s hand. Really?

McRae is an arrogant piece of 💩 I despise him

I feel sick

Only uneducated morons hated that game plan. It’s a proven successful game plan that won us a flag and helped us finish top 4 twice since. Last year we lost those finals because we were missing one too many forwards and the loss of Gus was an enormous factor as well. We lost by a bee’s dick in both finals. If Gus, Petty, Melksham and JVR play against Carlton we go to a prelim.

Just [censored] win. I cannot deal losing to them again after what happened last year 😡

There are no words for my hatred and rage towards Maynard, Collingwood and the AFL. There is only one game I want to win this year, and that’s today.

Care to elaborate on the bigger problems?

I have no idea where you got that intel from, but regardless, professional footballers making very good money shouldn’t be having a go at the club and putting up a stinker of a performance, because they aren’t staying at the Ritz. We won a flag when the players were in a hub for weeks on end. Freo played the same ground and probably stayed in the same or similar accommodation. Managed to win by 90+ points to keep their finals chances alive. If that really is the reason for the loss, and I very much doubt it is, then we have far bigger problems.

Lever not in your best 22? I still understand your point tho. We should win today. No excuses.

Well I mean unfortunately for Tommo. I really like Tomlinson and I think he has a lot of offer, but unfortunately for him and he’s always had too much competition at Melbourne. Hard to compete with May, Lever and now a reborn Tmac.

Or is one just holding a mirror? 🧐

Correct and unfortunately Tmac has shown more this year and deserves his spot ahead of Tommo. Realistically Tommo would have been dropped post bye for Lever anyway.

Incorrect. He is not fast or nimble enough to play on a small. Him May and TMac together make for a pretty slow backline anyway. It’s one thing when you have 3 talls to defend. Another when you’re defending smaller players.

For the 100th time, Tomlinson has no matchup. Pies have a small forwardline with their numerous injuries.

Prepare to enjoy that rubbery sole. I reckon Laurie is sub.

Another week another game ruined by poor umpiring

Well done to McAdam. He needed to go back and find some confidence. Clearly underdone and lacking in confidence at senior level, it’s nice to hear he went out and showed what he’s capable of. Needs another game or two at Casey to really solidify his own belief in his ability and his body before he comes back to the senior side IMO.

Tomlinson would have no opponent tomorrow, we need to go smaller and quicker down back or the Pies random forwardline will destroy us. Woey comes in for a full game, he's been a sub for too long, so if he wasn't going to start, he needed to be dropped to get some match fitness in.

To be fair, I've been trying to write the Cats off since 2021. Bastards refuse to die.

North Melbourne when they realize they might win a game
