Game Day Around The Grounds Rounds 1 - 5

[PumpyChowdown]

Holy cow that Rozee is a ****ing GUN! Amazing game tonight. And I thought Walshy had the Rising Star nom in the bag this week.

 

[Robbo's my hero]

2 winners today. 9/24. Terrible effort. Lift!

I've jumped ya !! Raced up to 10 and going strong..

 

[mediumsizered]

guess we see if differently, only because we should be close to their level but they seem streets ahead of us JMO.

They haven't played finals since 2009. We've played 3 finals series since then. They have been building for quite some time & the priority pick gift from the AFL & getting Hipwood from their Academy have been nice little leg-ups in this process.

Also, how often does the opportunity present for a team to loose a gun midfielder and recruit another that is even better than the one they lost. Good management ? sure; but there was also an alignment of circumstances commonly referred to as luck.

Absolutely. Beams fell in their lap & then did a bolt on them, only for Neale to decide that a move from WA to Qld was quite appealing. It couldn't have worked out better for them if they had tried.

They couldn't have scripted it any better if they tried.

 

[HBF]

Eagles might very well be be the team to beat again this year.

No problem with that tbh, just as long as it aint the pies tiges or *

 

[Benaly28]

sucks watching brisbane dominating like this...

We’re one year behind them so not really and good on them.Neale has been huge.

Along with pies and GWS at this stage.

 

[Benaly28]

Just saw on the afl app that Cothin suffered a hammy aswell ..their injuries are mounting ..someone else too that I can't think of right now..

Karma bus parked outside punt road.Gone for the year too may injuries and players underperforming.

 

[Blues177]

Tigers to be without Rance, Jack, Cotchin and Martin (surely will get at least 3 weeks) with Port Adel (AO), Sydney (Marvel) and the Dees (Anzac eve) matches to come.
Rioli also injured his ribs yesterday but played on. Short dislocated his right elbow.
Big turnaround with their luck and now all 4 of their best players to be missing.

Agree.
Neale has been a massive coup for them.

owen play swans next week in sydney - oh dear.......

 

[Mr_Plow]

Gold Coast's ground ball pressure and ball movement is actually quite good. Really worried about next week.

 

[Sharks On A Plane]

Sexton is seriously such a gun, would have been perfect for us as a FA.

They will 100% beat us.

 

[Mr_Plow]

**** me.

 

[Mr_Plow]

Yep, comfortably. They are quality.

 

[thylacine60]

thanks dogs..........fmd........

 

[Mr_Plow]

They will 100% beat us.

Also hurts that Collins and Burgess already look AFL quality, with Corbett to come.

 

[jooce8891]

every shit team from last year improving....

 

[El Topo]

I just want footy to be fun again, sick of the jealousy/rage/overwhelming sadness watching other teams play

 

[Sharks On A Plane]

Sexton three goals in the first quarter FFS
