As soon as Goodwin came up with that crap it was the most see through shit in the world. Absolutely no one bought it.
It made me think we were going to move the ball even slower than ever trying to connect and that the players all hated one another.

Old mate would been better to lean into our connection being fine and the old you don’t have to get along personally with your colleagues to be productive at work.
 
So we have:

Dees
  • Coming off an unexpected win against top opposition, and getting pumped up by all and sundry this week
  • Playing against the league's current non-Carlton laughing stock
  • Playing arguably the greatest ruck of all-time vs a relatively unknown, undersized state-league KPD playing in the ruck
  • Fans starting to dream about finals.
Bombers
  • Got their facilities doused in petrol during the week (had to look up that this actually happened lol)
  • Gave a spirited showing in the second half last week against the Dogs in a game they were tipped to lose by a record margin
  • Debuting a highly-touted top-ten pick (Robey) that already has their fans super hyped
  • On a 17-game losing streak, only matched in their history by the 2016 top-ups side (which we also lost to).
I don't see what could possibly go wrong.
 
Yeah has danger game written all over this one. They found some form in the 2nd half against the Dogs. Granted Dogs took the foot off the throat. But this is a really good test to see if the team can kill a team we should. They've beaten us last couple of times over there. 4 quarter effort like last week should see us bring home the chocolates.

Have faith.

Scythe is getting in a few doom posts early to claim “I told you so” in the event of a loss. I’m all for a good fence-sit that leaves you options to act superior in any scenario

Either that, or Simon Goodwin really did a number on all of us.

Simon scars is what I will call it or PTSGD.

Looks like Fritta, Laurie and Henderon (?) all made the trip.


I hope everybody made it there ok, the weather is rather dicey at the moment in South Australia, particularly Adelaide.

I do remember the matriarch of the Brady Bunch being Florence Henderon.
 
Remember Brad Scott has coached against us for 13 wins and 2 losses, the best of any opponents he's coached against

If he does get the sack, would be great to add some losses in beforehand

A TRUE supporter would go full nuff and troll the oppo board in the lead up.
