Oppo Camp The Non-North FOOTY DISCUSSION ONLY & Matchday Chat Thread III

[Kimbo]

Perhaps you could tone the schadenfreude down a notch, Wells has always carried himself with humility and dignity and if indeed he has suffered a serious injury it shouldn't be celebrated despite whatever club he's playing for.

It occurs to me, reflecting on the 'serious injury' term, that it's all relative. I for one wouldn't be engaging in schadenfreude if he again had a blood clot on his lung; that's serious. If, however, it's an injury that simply prevents him from playing footy for a while, 'serious or otherwise', and has no long term affect on his health, then I'm happy to bring all the schadenfreude I can to bear.

"Two weeks".

I am nowhere near that smart so I got what I deserved.

I'm impressed that as well as being extremely favoured, unlikeable and exploitative of government resources (TAC sponsorships, state facilities, doles etc) as an AFL mens side, they've managed to extend this to rooting up an entire netball league and positioning themselves as the highest profile women's team despite having no real claims to a license based on any of their recent years efforts.

There is good reason for it and i for one am in favour of such treatment, as it allows the Victorian police force to know exactly where and what the criminal element are up to on a weekend.

I just read an article about Wellsy's supposed injury, and he was described as a goal kicking midfielder (9 goals 9 behinds in last 3 seasons)

Efa.

Off the Wells wagon for once.

HS deemed it smart to describe Little Silv getting the #1 jumper at Carlton as "top billing". Good on the tacker but such a misleading headline.

PA have a tradition of assigning captains with the 1 jumper. That is top billing.

Channel Nien News all over Wells...he kept digging himself into a calf hole......

 

[roojor]

Yep so it begins we all have read the same news over the years those poor Collingwood supporters have no idea how we protected him over the years.

It's nice to see Collingwood not being immune to criticism.

Modified Program.

Modified Program.

Bit of an issue.

Modified.

I am cooked again.

I think that's the longest interview I've ever heard from Wells. You could tell by his body language he wasn't comfortable.

Welcome to Collingwood I guess. I hope the media don't find out where he lives.

 

[Jasemon]

Whoever's in charge of the media department down at Collingwood might need to be looking for a new job soon. Nobody there to protect their new star recruit from the pack of media wolves. Wells was like a lamb to the slaughter.

Know where to hide there...just YouTube Harry O's time at Collingwood.

Would rather not watch that arse clown ever.

Screw collingwood but I feel bad for Wells.

Hope he can get on the park and play good footy. I want Wells to play good and contribute so the greater footy world sees how good he is but collingwood to finish out of the 8 again.

Watching our (former) players play for another club has never been weird to me... But I'm thinking Wellsy at the Pies will be... It just doesn't feel right.

Dustin Martin's old man is playing the race card apparently.

Probably feel as welcome as Adrian McAdam.

Googled "Dustin Martin father" to see what you were talking about and the top result was a Hun article. Read the article and then clicked on "read comments". Immediately regretted the latter action. Hun readers make BigFooty posters look like the Algonquin Round Table.

Jarman Impey - wipes out parked cars, flees the scene and drops his licence at the scene. Prob get a slap on the wrist!

Mods, shouldn't the above comments be in the random thoughts thread? This is the non north football discussion thread.

Mods, shouldn't the above comments be in the random thoughts thread? This is the non north football discussion thread.

Maybe we need just, say, three threads?
1. Game Day threads, which are deleted once the next game day thread is created.
2. All other NMFC football and club related matters.
3. Miscellaneous thread for anything else?

Keeps it simple.
