Oppo Camp Non Eagles AFL discussion thread II

[DJMac]

A certain club board consistently banned posters for being excessively negative.

I like this board as usually we joke and laugh even when we lose and it doesn't take itself too seriously - if you're a dick here, you get called out, and even the mods join in too. I bet most other club boards wish they were like this one, opposition posters regularly post here and are treated with respect - unless of course they're a dick.

Rules out most Freo posters.

Nah. Let’s not

**** me dead, Johnno Brown annoyed at McCartin for not being able to shake off big hits and not having the resilience to play through concussion.

Eight concussions in five years, and Brown reckons its a mindset and resilience issue.

Ran out of gas a quarter of the way to the ground.

Cos it was 40' last week and a 6 day break , 1.extra day and he woulda got fuel .

Be fair on Brown for not understanding. Pretty sure there's nothing in his head to concuss.

 

[TheGhostOfJohnBelushi]

In fairness, Adam Simpson had an extra two days to fill his tank up. Scheduling is the real problem.

I feel it was absolutely a scheduling issue. His team scheduled to play on a Monday, meaning he missed out before the price cycle reset. Like **** he's filling on a Tuesday.

Typical Vic-centric AFL, not thinking about WA issues like fixed petrol price cycles. And I bet Sydney would have got a "cost of petrol" allowance!

Give it another 5 years and the odds are (and the science suggests) Brown will have a better understanding of the effects of CTE. Your own retirement was brought about by massive head injuries, ffs Brown!

 

[Turboman1994]

Without naming names but personally I think that
The Rich board is full of ass cancer the sense of self entitlement is unbelievable.
Freo mob are alright minus a few looneys.
Hawks have a couple of nutters and don’t get me started on a certain mod.
Surprisingly Collingwood have decent ones.
Norf is full of lulz I won’t forget the melt down over gaff anytime soon but I’ve heard according to my sources guys he is unhappy.
The eagles board is by far the most chill of all the teams I support only really Mr death by a thousand arguments, I was hacked bro and freagle man that can irritate me

It's career for him surely. Can't string a dozen games together without a concussion.

Brown should know way better, anyone really with half a brain should. You do eight hamstrings in five years and you're in trouble, let along concussions.

 

[Brolga]

Really hard to see what they were arguing about.

I think in his own laborious way Jono was trying to say that McCartin had to expect knocks because of the position he plays, and that if he is even a bit stunned for several minutes, then he leaves his team vulnerable. And the fact that he gets actual concussion relatively easily means he can't play that role.

Lyon then came in to clarify and help him out by talking about vulnerability, and Jono disagreed with him while trying to make the same point. Gold!

 

[FatPizza]

Brown simply figured it should be safe to play in the AFL without McFarlane throwing his knees around.

 

[Lyyynnnchy]

Also, now that May is a Dee, he gets shielded by the commentators.
If he still played for Gold Coast, they would have been showing it in super slow motion and close-up, debating whether he would get a life sentence or be hung drawn and quartered.
Can’t let anything interfere with this years Melbourne fairytale.

Ah come on, take that run foil hat off. I’m so sick of this Vic conspiracy crap. The commentators are Victorian, it’s natural to show bias, just like any WA commentator. Get over it

 

[WCErevival]

What is the issue with Mccartin? Is he unco and throwing himself into contests poorly or just genetically prone to concussions?

He's getting himself into terrible positions sometimes. Going back with the flight carelessly should've been addressed by the Saints management before this.

You wouldn't find two worse blokes than the two moron richmond posters I'm thinking of

There’s a certain Norf mod who may or may not have had the biggest melt in recent history after the Gaff re-signing who I find so incredibly unbearable, but also enjoy how brain dead they are.

Also love how the Fremantle board refer to us as the ‘Scum’ and Gaff as ‘GaGF’. Must’ve used all their collective intelligence to come up with those.

I watched the incident on TV, and be stuffed if i could actually see anything at all - no elbow or knee to the head, no forearm - just body contact from behind, and if that's enough to make him wonky now, then he is done. In that regard, I can understand Browny's remarks.

*no six day breaks and weather permitting.

Fold the Suns.

Rankine out for two months now. Just fold them.

Get rid of the Suns, get rid of St Kilda and redistribute those players. Talent is spread too thin with 18 teams, and the Suns will never get out of this hole.

Wonder how homesick he’ll get during that 8 week holiday

 

[FKASC]

Adelaide or Port will pick him up for a bargain basement price too.

We haven’t capitalised at all from the expansion sides other than shafting GC with the pick swap

Look at the quality that's come back to Perth though: Bennell, Matera and Wilson (who's decent but a dip shit). Did I miss anyone?

Also we did get Tunbridge.
