Opinion Non-Crows AFL 11: Succession plans and other lols

[Iridescence]

Who've we got for today's game? Before Gather Round I would have said Hawthorn is a 90% certainty. Now I only give them a 30% chance. Geelong looks strong.

I think they’ll rebound

 

[Cromulant]

I think they’ll rebound

I suspect so, at very least they won't be as bad as they were last Sunday

 

[MRB37]

Reading general footy media stuff today, you'd of thought Bontempelli did back to back ACL's and hadn't played in 2 years. He's missed like 5 games and they're creaming themselves "THE BONT IS BACK!"

Kennet curse.

They won plenty in a row after losing grand final til Silk scored the winner.

It's just the way things generally are these days, everything is dialled up.

Look at the reaction when Carlton's first pick did his knee, was like he had died.

 

[GROTTO]

Fox Footy reporting that Darcy will miss about 4-5 months.

I would be shocked if he plays again this year, unless the Dogs go deep into September.

The bonus for the Dogs is that he will be able to have a genuine preseason.

hoping the hawks win well.
f*** geelong

Sat the **** down quick smart when Aliir actually looked at him. See ya later, feral.

I just don't understand why people do it.

Wouldn’t call him feral. Just a young passionate supporter who’s made a mistake and has been punished for it.

 

[AmericanCrow]

Screw the Kitty Kats

 

[pjcrows]

I thought he was only 13? If he's actually 16 then the punishment is fine.

Didn't seem at all apologetic at the time

Maybe not all there?

His grandpa said he was 13 on one interview

Maybe a spur of the moment white lie to exaggerate how young he is

Or maybe not his Grandpa

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

The Hawks were so unbelievably bad last week that it would almost be suspicious if they won here

 

[AmericanCrow]

Well, been a good sports weekend for me even if Port and Geelong win back to back..

Guardians sweep Pittspuke
Crows win a big game
Cavaliers take down Miami

Little AC comes from 4 back to start final round, birdies 15 to tie and wins in playoff

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Chol that is a gimme

 

[AmericanCrow]

How do you miss that

's career effectively over, Chol is now the worst key forward in a best 22.

 

[StonesThrow]

I just don't understand why people do it.

I reckon I'd be at risk of doing something stupid if I sat there and the opposition took a goal saving mark.
