The heart beats true

Love this. GWS would feel like they snatched that one. The problem for us supporters is that those kind of losses are super common over the last 5 seasons. We have to put in so much effort and still come up short. It’s heartbreaking for the players like Viney, who literally couldn’t do any more.

I don’t understand what people want from posters who have historically been optimistic and used statistics to maintain their optimism? Would you like everyone to agree that everything is awful and there’s no point supporting the club? What does that achieve? It’s not anyone’s fault on this forum that the club lost. It’s super weird when people come for others because they had an opinion. The opinion didn’t miss shots for goals. That attitude just creates a boring monoculture.

Supporting the club feels really futile when we produce the spectacular own goal of selling that game to the NT government, making it a 50/50 contest, and then losing it.

I think he was having a joke Layz. I didn’t think it was serious 👍

Yep because I reckon it stinks. We have 65k members and a recent flag. If a club can’t turn that into a replacement sponsor then I’d be asking very hard questions of the sponsorship department. It made sense circa 2011-20. That we still do it with so much to play for is frankly a disgrace.

Bowser! And listen to the crowd go wild. 60, maybe 70 people applaud as one. how long we be going there for? What do we get for it again?

Isn’t everyone thrilled that we sell this game so that 800 people can see it in Alice Springs? It sucks.

Melk is one of the best wet weather forwards in the AFL.

More at Casey today?

This is my least favourite game day of the year. All I can think is that I would be there if the game was in Melbourne, and how much I love live footy.

I find Port fascinating this year. I have a strong suspicion Ken has got them up for the first part of the season for his contract year. It’s also interesting the club hasn’t signed him yet, as they have learnt the hard way you can’t win the flag in July. They finished second in 2021, which gets forgotten a lot. Let’s see what’s September brings.

Yeah Brisbane have been amazing. I loved their loss to Hawthorn a couple of weeks back.

We can’t finish second now. Weed kicks his easy set shot and we could.

Wasn’t you dazzle! If you were our list manager we’d struggle to field a team.

Oh Weeds :(

You know they are still selling Collingwood memberships Jimmy? When you speak about them it’s the most optimistic I’ve ever heard you.

Not sure why people are barracking for Port? As Jaded said Port have 3 really tough games, and I like the idea of them being anxious about coming to the G to play.

I’d say 90% of Brownlow’s won since the 80’s haven’t been won by the best player in the game. Carey, Ablett Snr, Matthews. It’s an incredible list.

Why would Bailey Humphry sign on for 5 more years of this?

This game is all about the meaningless of the Suns. I’d love to know their stats in the last 10 weeks of a season since their inception. They still can’t hang in when it matters. They don’t mean anything, and nobody cares. I bet Fitzroy wish they were given this much grace.

Made a huge difference for the Swans forwards and their conversation. Oh wait a minute….

Because 2 points is better than none.

Both teams lost that.

God this is frustrating to watch. Sydney should have iced the game by half time.

BT now asking ‘what is the world coming to?’ because Stewart got fined for pushing over an injured Viney. I’ll tell you what it’s coming to Brian. The end of outdated, boring old men like you.
