[Foxx]

Ok so who's done the maths? How much do we have to win by, and GWS lose by for us to make the finals?

Geelong will take care of the Dogs.

Geelong will take care of the Dogs.

Roughly, GWS would need to lose by 100, we would need to win by around 150 points

Sounds like the fat lady's singing.
Are you sure you carried the 1?

if kelly plays this week, if phillips plays this week - if baldwin and bryan dont play, i will personally lay a turd in the centre of each training over at tulla

At least that will soften the surface a little!

 

[Pweter]

It's an indictment on the club that I don't really care what happens this weekend. I remember the days where every game meant something, my day/weekend/week seemed to ebb and flow with the fortunes of the club.

I like it when we do well but it's always fleeting. I don't really give a shit when we lose as this club isn't worth the emotional investment I have put into them for over 40 years. I'm glad I saw some good times, many good times to be honest, but over the last 20-odd years they've just whittled away at my ability to give a ****.

No doubt I'll be more interested if they ever come back to being a good, respectable club but I doubt I'll ever get to the levels of semi-fanatical supporter that I once was.

Collingwood by minimum 70 points.

I think we have enough shit out there already.

If that were the case then hed be making similar moves pending what players are doing next year

 

[Mercurial89]

No changes for mine except walla in for injured guelfi.

Keep the spotlight on them, make them show up on the brightest stage of the footy weekend and see what happens.
No final game announcements, no show and dance.
Those that may be considering it can go into the game unsure if this is their final game.

Then you retire the players that need to be in the offseason.

This!
My sentiments exactly - we have been beaten down.
(But at least we got to experience 1993, 2000 etc.) I was an EFC nuffy back then. Now... notsomuch!

 

[FlyingV]

I actually think we might die

 

[Runk]

Is this trade actually possible? Would do it

Reckon Mum doesn't book end of season trips like Guelfi does. About the only thing he's good at too.

 

[Milanista28]

No positive response please, if we respond just a little the club will hang their hat on that all off season.

 

[Shanghaistu]

Can we get our percentage below 90 after this game, and if so can we apply for a priority pick?

 

[dank420_]

Very symbolic.

Also, how #eco are they

We can never do anything right. The car crash performance was last week.

Pressure is off, we probably win this game sadly.

 

[brutus76]

Seatbelt jumper to remind supporters to BUCKLE UP AND STRAP YOURSELF IN FOR ANOTHER FLOGGING

 

[Dave]

And sold out I believe

Never been so happy to miss out on a ticket.

 

[Dave]

Also, eco. Six weeks in a ****ing
moonboot. No driving. Not happy jan!!!!!

 

[ant555]

the response from the previous two weeks was enough evidence that the players are either not listening, message not getting through or simply not up to it

If we want a response, that ship sailed yesterday

Bold would be my view. We have the same issues as last year but it is not surprising as it is 80% the same team .

DICKBELT JUMPER IS BACK!!!

SEASON SAVED!!
