2014 Non Eagles Discussions Thread

Unfortunately their form leading into our game against them last year wasn't brilliant either and they blew us off the park

That was our most disappointing performance last season I reckon. We were brushed aside at the contests and insisted on moving the ball within 50cms of the boundary. I rarely use foul language in public, but I was cursing like a mutha fukka that night.

 

[Biggie]

Agreed. Wrote off the season and dare I say Woosha when that result occurred.

Then I watched "The Red Wedding" GOT after that....

Still recovering tbh.

Agreed. I think it was than game that forced the realisation that we just weren't that good and that the hoped for improvement wasn't going to come

Last night ruled out another top eight contender. I know it's only round four, but Richmond aren't making it.

I think it's only down to nine teams now:

Top 8 locks:

Hawthorn
Fremantle
Geelong
Essendon

Contenders:

Sydney
West Coast
Port Adelaide
Collingwood
Norf Melbourne

You could make a case for Gold Coast, but I can't see them making it yet. Adelaide and Carlton are out.

Add Adelaide to the list of contenders, they'll probably win their next 4 and have a piss easy run home.

The worst loss that season was blowing a 50 point lead against Port Adelaide. the saddest part was at 3QT we all saw it coming.

Just edited my post after you quoted me. I don't rate Adelaide.

Shit year is shit

Nice edit

Was going to say Gold Coast could be considered a contender.

Not sure I'd be completely ruling out Adelaide yet or Richmond as theres still time for them to turn it around as unlikely as it seems right now

I'm waiting to see how we fare over the next 4 weeks before I start believing we're a contender

I just can't see GC winning enough games away from home, and they're going to drop a few at home too.

Richmond just have too many average list cloggers at the moment. Don't see them improving. Same with Adelaide.

We're a definitely a finals contender because we're 3-0 and have a soft draw. Winning the majority of our home matches should see us make it.

 

[Keys]

Almost 1/4 time and Melbourne down by just 2 points

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Not a surprise, Carlton have been pretty poor in the first 3 rounds, but they should pull away later in the match.

 

[kane249]

And Melbourne in front.

Surely not? The meltdown on the Carlton board would be worth it though.

 

[lewigie]

These teams are both so lazy. Just don't chase. Calton and Melbourne I mean.

 

[Avalor]

How bad are Carlton? Malthouse will blow a fuse here.

Attention friends and fellow Eagles supporters! I have just had an idea for a horrible, savage, brutal blood sport that we can use to make a lot of money. **** fighting, dog fighting, Pokemon; all of these have nothing on... fish fighting.

A tank. Two Siamese fighting fish enter. After half an hour of acclimatisation, they can be released from their plastic baggies and only one leaves. We make our fortune on bets.

Now you may ask yourselves why I'm sharing this with you. The truth is, the idea - while sure to make us rich, rich as dog fighters and Pokemon masters - requires substantial initial investment. Fish tank filters don't grow on trees and you can't just go down to the pound and adopt all the fighting fish. Therefore I must reluctantly open up my business to partners.

Minimum investment is $2 000, serious offers only, no real names. Dear God, Carlton suck.

This. And they're both just dead average skill-wise. And they've both got no depth. And they both don't have any talls.

Michael Vick board

Leunberger down with a knee injury, Brisbane having rotten luck.

 

[ChampRevesby]

Lol Carlton. Rubbish team.

 

[dajesmac]

Anyone still worried about the Blues in a few weeks?

 

[Avalor]

Surely the tank is on - Carlton needing KPPs and the upcoming draft real big on a good crop of them.

It's not for the first time either, questionable management and terrible culture.

 

[pantskyle]

Carlolton.

Never been so happy to drop a tip.
