No Oppo Supporters OPPOSITION OBSERVATION XXII

[Zoom]

I love how Collingwood fans overstate their injuries. “Dunn going down is like Rance going down” is like saying “Castagna going down is like de Goey going down”. Just because they play similar positions does not mean they’re of similar quality and importance. Rance going down for us is like Grundy going down for them.

Treloar and Moore are the only two significant injuries they had last season. Elliot is a forward pocket and if they’re whinging about him missing they’re having a laugh. The rest of the players that missed large chunks of the season were all role players (Elliot, Dunn, Howe), depth players (Reid, Aish, Scharenberg, Wells, Goldsack, Broomhead) or were good players that only missed a couple here and there (de Goey). Collectively, how many games did Grundy, Pendles, Sidebottom, de Goey and Adams miss last year? F*** all. Their injuries were overstated and as soon as one of their players went down they were automatically considered best 22.

Hey everyone. There's not really a perfect thread to put this in so I might just slip it into a couple of general threads and hope most people see it.
For anyone who likes watching us on DVD JB Hi Fi have 40% off AFL dvds at the moment, until April 28. There's a few nice little box sets that come down to be really cheap and some stores even have the premiership year box set at $90 so you'd get it for $54! Pretty sure it covered NRL and some other sports as well but not 100% sure of the exact deal.

Nice to see Robbo going into bat for Dusty on 360, Gerard wouldn't be so calm or against the act if it was one of the Holy Trinity!!

The 2017 season box would be well worth it too.

What did GTO say?

Hell yeah! Especially just now, lol. It's listed as $120 down to $72 but Prahran had it at $89 tonight and I'm sure I've seen it elsewhere for that. That comes down to $54. There's 4 good packs with 6 games each in them that come down to about $20 if you like older games too.

 

[Nobby]

Gerard was saying it is 'interesting', looking very pleased with himself.

Robbo was saying why are we only getting one side, what was Mumford saying to Dusty? WHy is it always the retaliator who is penalised??

Was he sober when he said it?

Plus you get the GF on Blu-ray in the season box.

Gerard also said he didn't feel Dimma should have said anything about Dusty. Apparently our only step is to take it to teh tribunal to get it reduced to 1, which we won't do as we can't defeat the AFLs argument of "it could have caused serious damage", we should take the suspension as he deserves it!!

Really!!!

 

[Nobby]

Was he sober when he said it?

He's slurring, but I reckon he probably speaks clearer when he's pissed

 

[tigerwill]

Was he sober when he said it?

He hasn't been sober since he was 16

Watching Robbo is like watching Ozzy Osbourne on AFL 360.

Watching Robbo is like watching Ozzy Osbourne on AFL 360.

Except Ozzy is a talented musician where as Robbos only talent is getting a corn chip stuck in his teeth right before he is about to go on air on a professional footy show and doesn’t even try to hide it.

Might go take a big shit at the front of AFL house.

Well you could always xxxx off to Collingwood then.

Just noting how big it was for you to pick on a woman. Well done. Your story was shitt anyway.

Why the heck are Adelaide even playing Fogerty in defence? Are they idiots?

Kid is a flog but he’s a natural bloody forward.

If they got him in their team and got rid of one of Lynch or Jenkins they may actually win more games.

If this year continues to go pear shaped then 2020, but I havent written off 2019 yet! long season and if I was an eagles supporter id be nervous they're in such good form so early - simply cannot keep that up for an entire season.

We’ll steam home like a freight train once we get our best (rance aside) team back on the park. Just need to scrap enough wins together to stay in touch until those players are all back

Scrapping the wins will be the problem.

I didn’t though. I think you missed the point and need to take off your PC boots. Personally I couldn’t give a damn what a moron thinks especially when they suggest brawling in the car park over a bit of banter. You’re no better than that lady with your PC as you referred to violence and got all worked up bc I defended my stance for free speech as a fan.
It was an account of an event that took place and not a story .
As I said fxxk off to Collingwood as we don’t need morons who promote violence.

I’ve been one to get into a lot of tussles with TigerImposter myself in the past but I’m going to defend him here.

You are accusing him of picking on a woman, imo it’s not different to if it was a bloke. I dont condone a bloke hitting a woman but I believe a grown women can take a bit of verbal sledging just as much as any bloke can.

Could he have handled it better? Probably, but I’m sure that lady will be fine.
