Game Day Opposable Chums: Guts & Glory at the World Series of Birding

[Southerntakeover]

People were calling for a rest. We rested.

If we wanted to rest, we should have actually done that. Sent over some kids to get game experience. Use it to develop them.

What we did instead was try to keep a foot in both camps. We rested two, but otherwise sent our full team over, and that full team got handled comprehensively. Rest of the comp knows we can be beat.

You're the kind of supporter that's okay with this kind of effort and intensity because you can just make excuses for it. I don't remember Hawthorn playing any games like 'they didn't matter' in round 22 when they won four more flags than we've won in the last twenty years.

Lol ok. Tbh i couldn't give a s**t about this game. If we lose the first final then I'll care. This was a training run. We went red line to the end last year and had injuries and fatigue in finals. It didn't work. This year we're not doing that and that is a good thing imo.
Who cares what the Hawks did but they weren't top with no chance of dropping out of top 2 in any of those seasons

i havent given mackay crap for a few weeks so im overdue, but is he the slowest outside runner ever?

 

[Big Gazoongas]

It's not the advantage that you'd like it to be.

Ideally, when you finish top, you'd like to have an aura about you that half beats your opponents before you play. The knowledge that you're a superior outfit.

Unfortunately our form on the run home hasnt really done that. Collingwood, Sydney, and West Coast all all teams in the 5th to 10th range that have had their way with us.

We can convince ourselves we werent trying all we want, but I wonder if our opponents see it that way?

I doubt GWS are going to be thinking of this game when they run out onto AO in the QF.
GWS weren't any good yesterday either.

We'll be ready for the QF.

If your opinion is genuinely that our effort was too intense in round 23 last year I'm not sure what dimension you're from.

Time to return the favour. Win by 119 and we'll built a statue of Matt Priddis at West Lakes

I hope they think we were and underestimate is

No. Rd 23 was when we hit the wall. There was no coming back after that. I didn't see that today

I think they'll think we're ripe for the picking.

Who cares what they think!

Yeah, who wants a psychological advantage anyway.

Nuh overall he was pretty quick.

So when are the Muppets going to announce who's play when?

Meh, if we are good enough we will win.

 

[Crowman32]

Its not right that marguets continues to umpire majority of west coast games.

 

[Big Gazoongas]

We could rightly think the same after their performance yesterday.....and we play at home.

that is truly staggering. wonder if you can see that for when he's near an opponent though. really dont see him get away from opposition players.

 

[footy4ever]

But, the searing question burning in the back of every footy fan's brain, is - who do the umpires hate the most, Crows or Dees?

It's puzzling isn't it.

Make it 118 and you can build one at Alberton

Good they'll underestimate us
We lost by less than them so why isn't anyone saying they are ripe for the picking?

 

[TrainRoo32]

No one is more negative than me when it comes to AFC
But this year we have given ourselves the best chance for glory.
Mistakes of the past have not been repeated and quite frankly I'm pretty positive about beating the Giants

 

[The Karma Bus]

So when are the Muppets going to announce who's play when?

It's being said:

Adelaide vs GWS Thursday night
Geelong vs Richmond Friday night
Port vs West Coast Saturday afternoon
Sydney vs Essendon Saturday night

Official announcement is at 8pm SA time.

Would have liked to have seen a few more of our peripheral players busting a nut to cement finals selection and or find some form.

Seedsman was good
