No Oppo Supporters 2014 General AFL Discussion Part III

[RW]

As the title suggests, this thread is a place to discuss general AFL news/topics that don't necessarily involve the Swans and haven't been covered in other threads.

We don't mind a bit of banter where appropriate, but play nice or you may face some time out.

 

[bedford]

is this ok , I hate The Pies Hawthorn, Bombers, sorry they are all scum GO BLOODS

 

[RW]

You forgot St Kilda, you've mellowed!

 

[swansfan51]

Lol norf

 

[Swansujelly]

St Kilda result made me spit my soup..seriously, it did, it was a good soup too, and after explaining to those opposite, it was even better..(they were most gracious Hawfers)

 

[strauchanie59]

Would trade my left nut to get Bontempelli or Macrae on our team. Already are guns!

 

[GotTheGoodes]

Geelong clinging in there to a top 2. Percentage took a hit over the weekend though. Will make a world of difference for them should we managed to beat the Hawks and dent their percentage a touch. Wouldn't mind seeing the ladder standing as 1.Swans, 2.Cats, 3.Freo, 4.Hawks, 5.Port, 6.GoldCoast, 7.Essendon, 8.North, 9.Collingwood (just for you Ed) at the end of the year.

We're averaging over 32k at the SCG as well.

Which is good considering some games had 25k. Might hit 35k by end of the year?

Yep, early season games when we were shite. Good to see hail or shine that Sydneysiders back a winning team though.

 

[Millky95]

VS Essendon on a Friday night. 35-40+ considering they're starting to play some better footy

VS Saints Saturday arvo. Not sure. 25-35. Depends if they start playing more like last week and less like the rest of the year

 

[Ticky009]

The Whiz in that Freak of the Week promo on Fox Footy. Cracks me up. Every time.

 

[Punts]

Geez pumping us up on 360 ( 5/10 goal better side than anyone else ). Murphy , there best is the best we have ever seen. Don't really like all this pumping up

Is that how we are really seen on the outside? i just don't think we are that invincible at all maybe im to pessimistic.

I mean we could of quite easily lost to Richmond and Port.

Right there with you. Aside from a few games (Hi, Geelong)

We've played some average footy at times and we've played some jaw dropping brilliant footy. Port & Richmond as you mentioned are prime examples of close calls. Hell, we all remember our start to the year.

A friend of mine was fortunate enough to attend the Sydney premiere of the doco 'Aussie Rules the World' tonight at the Entertainment Quarter Moore Park and absolutely loved it, this is the film about Brett Kirk's time spent travelling the globe with his family to promote footy around the world. The trailer looks good -- can't wait till the general release!

Cool. I was hoping that would be worth a look.

Watching the WCE v Richmond game, i've seen cleaner skills and more talent at an All Abilities game.

It is now. Sadly, the skills seem to have improved as a result. Love a game of wet weather footy, but basic skills are still possible.

Geez Martin looks like a f***wit

Yeah i read that. Robbo's got his tongue so far up Hird's a** you can see his shiny bald head when Hird opens his mouth to speak.

He's gone past fanboy and all the way to actual worship.
