I don’t particularly like Collingwood but I do enjoy seeing them beat those brave Bulldogs.
Never seen so many players reluctant to take possession of the ball, they basically half attack the ball and play for a free.

Dogs are crap how in hell they ever won a premiership is a mystery.

A favourable fixture and out of this world umpiring

He got one I recall

and got condemned by Lingy. Yes, the same person who salivates over Selwood tactics.

Any interest in Mitch Wallis? Probably doesn't fill a need.

Cox must get at least four weeks for that hip to the head

Nah. It'll be a fine or a week. No more. The only thing saving him from more is the force of the contact.

 

[ozph1870]

On a scale of parker getting off to lindsay getting 3.. he will probably get off

 

[Chrizzt]

The best thing about this game is that Toby McLean hasn’t been getting any frees for his constant ducking.

What’s th deal with McLean? I haven’t watched much bulldogs but I remember him being some inconsistent squib who constantly ducked for frees and now he’s racking up touches as one of the Dogs best players. Is he actually good or is he getting a lot of cheap pill?

Josh Glenn got 25 disposals and kicked 8 goals for Nord vs Centrals tonight.

When he first started, his only discernable skills was getting caught holding the ball, ducking and milking frees.

He's developed somewhat to become an evasive, elusive, fast midfielder. Very adept at weaving through traffic. It's a bit frustrating, coz I liked hating him.

 

[chickentendies]

Trengove didn't really have a spot in the team anymore but **** I miss him not wearing our colours

 

[It Just Is]

Any interest in Mitch Wallis? Probably doesn't fill a need.

He’s got to be better than what he’s currently showing. Hawthorn or Sydney would turn him into a top 50 player overnight.

Remember when Jason Johannison won a Norm Smith, cutting swathes through opposition forward presses?

Remember when Joel Hamling played on Buddy Franklin in a grand final?

Remember when Liam Picken turned into Tony Modra for a month?

Remember when Hunter, Dahlhaus, Daniel and McLean looked like superbly clean and skillful young stars rather than undersized triers?

Remember when Tom Boyd actually looked like becoming a competent footballer for a few minutes?

You'd swear they were all on the Danksy juice for a month or something. Inspiring and mind boggling in equal measures.

The astronaut?

Thought he died a couple of years ago but happy to hear he's kicking goals in the AFL.

Spent a year up on the Gold Coast, sense his heart wasnt really in it

Superb and so right. Literally a month of above standard footy.

From my memory they were "first to the ball"

Don't forget the bulldog throw, which they still do regularly and still don't get pinged

 

[EskimoPAFC]

What may look like a throw is actually simply a result of the Bulldog players being so much faster to the ball that it plays tricks on the eyes

Yep, guy is a real class act.

I know the parent of the victim.

According to the article he left Bulldogs to play for Williaston this summer, and the incident occurred at the hotel that is a sponsor of Willaston

The same sanfl dickheads whom were clutching their pearls over SPP playing would be cheering this campaigner on.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Josh Glenn absolutely fails the no dickheads test for that and several other reasons. Any AFL club would be nuts to go near him.

Ironic that he gets kicked out of the Donnybrooks for having a donnybrook.

Not sure where to post this but nearly fell off my chair. Isn’t that your job to tell him what to do Lade?
