Game Day North vs Essendon Elimination final [CONFIRMED - SATURDAY NIGHT 7:15PM @ MCG]

[bomberbilly]

Gee there is a bit of mayo on that. He has played most of the year "on a destroyed ankle". But you are windy hill love your injury excuses - Hurley has concrete hands but "his wrists are destroyed".

End of the day most over rate their team - you lot are no different. Especially when you have posters rating TBC above Goldy.

Jessie Smith - destroyed ankle.

yes you are right we all overrate at times. I wouldnt say TBC is better than Goldy but TBC has had his season basically written off because of the ankle surgery. So yes he does have a very good reason for going backwards. Ryder has carried the load and has done an excellent job.

Neither are better. Ryder having his first decent year. Goldy has been in the best 2 rucks in the comp - twice.

yes Goldy is amazing. ok?

 

[Contra Mundum]

Here is the quote on the Goldy thread:

"With his lack of diversity and intensity he'd be behind both our rucks at Ess."

Should be added to their delusional pearler thread.

WOW that really is deluded - and Sir James is a man of Christ like integrity

 

[Contra Mundum]

In fact I would say in the last four games Goldy has been in red hot form - even developed a previously unseen form below his knees

He is making another run at the AA squad. Jacobs, Sandi are two locks but a third ruck is wide open.

Think that's a bit rubbish myself.

Ryder is quality.

His B&F results tell a different story. In the past he has been lazy and gave up in games. Finally found some consistency. Hopefully this weekend he can build on the 3 coaches votes he has so far. Goldy has 26.

Wild Bill, your hatred for anything * is to be commended. You are like the ISIS of hating * and the rest of us are just Al Qida (or however the f*** you spell it).

 

[MinistryOfMajak]

Ryder's among the best rucks in the comp for me, regardless of how many B&F points he's accumulated. A lot of strings in his bow.

Its hard to get B+F votes when Jobe is taking them all. Are coaches votes like the encouragement award?

Yeah, I would probably say they are about equal, Goldstein the better tap ruck and Ryder the better fwd.

Goldy gets a lot of tackles too which surprised me.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Goldy gets a lot of tackles too which surprised me.

Mainly in clearance area with the second effort.

 

[Saintly31]

Yeah, he works very hard which is underestimated by other supporters sometimes. I think his biggest weakness is he doesn't take enough marks and present as a target, but otherwise he is quality.

Goddard won your B&F last year with 431 votes - they don't give 1 vote out per match.

As for the coaches votes - after each game both coaches give out votes to the best 5 players. How could you not know this? This award should carry more weight than the Brownlow as the coaches have a better idea than the umps. Robbie Gray leads with 102 - Ryder has 3.

so serious. Yes I have heard of the coaches votes. Don't really care about them to be honest. Ryder is having a fantastic season.

I think he knows what the coaches votes are mate.

Edit: he's beaten me to it.

 

[Flawed Genius]

Old mate Jay Clark:

Jake Carlisle walking/jogging laps. Must be long odds to play first final. Doubt Bombers would take risk on dodgy hammy in September.

 

[LuvtheKangas]

Please beat them. Cant stand the drug cheats

1992 and 1994 just called to ask if you are familiar with the term 'irony'

Well thats where we differ. The coaches votes are a clear indication of who has performed well. The votes reward fantastic games and performanes. But if you believe your understanding of the game and who has played well is better than Thompsons then so be it.

wow you really just run off on your own tangent and try and turn everything into an argument. Can we talk about the game rather than coaches votes? maybe start a thread on coaches votes I'm sure there will be others just as passionate.

Sure.

If we play essendon we will start favourties. This is due to our best being better and essendon's worse worst.

If we both play to our best - we win.
If we both play poorly - we win.
If we play well and essendon play poorly - we win - easily.

If essendon play well and we play poorly - we lose - but win as we are not the laughing stock of Australian sport.

Happy meow.
