Oppo Camp 2026 Other Games Rolling Thread

[DinoSoar]

Absolutely done with footy 100%

Geelong Farmer's League. Thank god World Cup starts in 4 weeks time

And yet you’re still here …

Please stay on topic, this thread is for discussion of other games each round and not politics, other sports or your random thoughts.

Much as it pains me, I don't want Brisbane to get anywhere near it this year, so I cannot support them even when they are playing teams I especially hate (Essendon, Carlton, Geelong, Richmond, St Kilda and Melbourne).
They have a young list and could quite conceivably win the next two or three flags, and we all know what that would do!!

I am not watching the game. Can't stand it.

Gee, that was superb from Cameron there.

Loves that boundary line, what a gun!

Brisbanes midfield is scary good

O Henry needs a makeover.

Horrible haircut that looks as if his mum placed a bowl on his head and went snip.

Weak milk moustache also.

Cats are home. I can't see them not winning the flag this year

Thought Hawthorn were winning it…..

Neale would do wonders for our club. Just wonder if he can sell him on the idea of playing for us.

 

[BigVic]

I would like Neale

Into offseason mode now and thinking about 2027 and beyond.

No thanks

Finn O'Sullivan is going to be a player. Fun fact, he's the grandson of Collingwood 'legend', Murrie Batt who played 12 games for Collingwood.

AFL Tables - Murrie Batt - Stats - Statistics

I think we must be getting into his Finn's ear to bring him over to Collingwood where he belongs!

There's also a random connection which doesn't get spoken about with FOS. His aunty is Jono Brown's sister.

(really not that exciting )

 

[satty]

No thanks

Seriously?

Who is going to teach out next generation once pendles and sidey call it time.

Neale has about 2-3 good years left in him. He would instantly become our second best mid, which is really saying something.

Geelong is going to win the flag, might as well finish the season now and give them the cup. I'm taking up lawn bowls

I'd like to think we'd be able to heavily lean on Tom Mitchell for this. They're in Ball Magnets together (or at least they were last time I checked, although I feel like 99% of the content on social media has just been Titch), so if we have an environment as good as it looks from the outside, is like to think Titch would tell him all about it.

Get out of here. What a kick.

This is the issue, Cats, Lions, Hawks - they keep getting better each year. Their established players consistently play well while the younger players improve. We seem to go backwards depending heavily on Pendles and Naicos all the time. Established players are not consistent enough, on and off and not a lot of improvement from the younger players. After two awesome years 22/23, we have gone backwards.

So 2025 didn't happen?

I personally feel last year was "this is it moment" for us . Who knows how things would have planned out if we had pendles out there , especially when we had the lead in the match and when they were making a run.

We have had a poor stretch of drafting in the last few years under hine, which is biting us in the rear end.

As we unfortunately found out the hard way last year, there is such a thing as peaking too early .
