[Pistol Night]

Just remember

If you work 8 hours a day

And take a poo for 15 min a day

At end of year you will be paid 40 hours for pooing


You're welcome

If i don't poo at work for a month or so do they accumulate and i can take a Poo Day Off?

Rowbottom 6 tackles, how about getting a kick!

Why is that so important today?

Did any of his tackles result in a turnover that ended up as a goal?
Stop blues from scoring?
Cause a stoppage where the swans scored?

I’d argue any of those 3 things are worth more than a kick…..

 

[TheVillageIdiot7]

We have to move on. It would have been good if Tay left with a flag under his belt, but it wasn't to be

Indeed. I’ve already moved on.
Had Tay stayed, I don’t think he’s in our team by end of year anyway….im ambivalent to him leaving as it was a way to extend his career.

Swans will pay him his final 2 years to play VFL anyway IMO. So good work by us and “overpaying” by swans (oh wait….overpaying only relates to draft picks….i take that back!! )

Did you just turn the game on? they couldn't touch the ball for half the quarter and their tackling wasnt having much impact

Watched some the first qtr.

I was just questioning your use of stats to deride a player without context of the end result.

I have no idea either way. I was merely suggesting that to value kicks over tackles these days is a poor way to judge impact.

It was 27-3 on scoreboard and swans were leading tackle count 18-1 so imo the tackling wasnt having much impact and better off just winning the ball which they started to

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Watching Adams and Grundy fighting against evil just feels right to me.

Go Anticarlton!

I used to be staunch when it came to losing any of our players but I'm at peace with players moving for more money these days because football is only 10 years for most and everyone has the right to set up their future for themselves and their families

Tay involved again

Tackling is what got the Swans back in the game.

 

[manicpie]

And just like that Sydney are in front

 

[Piesinmyeyes]

They complain about the spectacle of the matches in Darwin.
Seriously though, are matches in Sydney that much better to watch.
Always seems a congested slog.
It’s a crap ground for a viewer if you ask me.

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

As we knew they would.

 

[jmac70]

lol Swans

Frauds

Better not check the score

 

[JoinDate]

Sydney footy is so fking boring.

 

[manicpie]

As we knew they would.

It's was just a matter of time and oh look, another Sydney goal coming up

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Z Williams sure does like giving away 50’s doesn’t he?

 

[nahnah]

That was dumb by Williams

No, Sydney's ground isn't fit for football

Commentators jinxing both teams big time. Every single time they've pumped up the goal kicker, they've missed.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Better not check the score

I gave Carlton too much credit

They have to be the luckiest team in the comp

Between the bounce/fall of the ball constantly going their way, the umpires in their pocket and always playing teams who don’t kick straight, one could argue they’re underperforming lol

Sydney footy is a horrible spectacle, which isn't helped by the fact the Sydney crowd are all theatre goers - just makes for a boring watch.

We, AFL supporters, are very immature to this thinking (sans last 4 or so years).

Rarely does a player leave have a tangible impact on club performance. Let alone one late 20’s+

But everyone loves the emotion of it. So I understand that.

I said half way through the first that Sydney will run all over them. It was just a matter of time
