2014 Non Eagles Discussions Thread

[Biggie]

Port are a quality. well drilled footy side.

We can hope to be like them.

Harley Bennel named B.O.G in Gold Coasts reserves. He should resume playing in the seniors this week (as should Bock who is now 3 res games in to his comeback)
We can then dream & drool over luring him back home eventually.

Just thinking how huge Hale was for the Hawks at FF the other day. Just goes to show you that elite delivery to a tall in the forward 50 really hurts the opposition.

We all love stats, good one for derby week in the newspaper today,
AFL's BEST RETENTION RATES
(retention being where your team retains possession after your disposal)
Worst was David Mundy at 51.8%.
Only the top 100 ball winners included. Mundy well ahead of the next worst (b.vince at just under 60%)
Best in the league was some tool from essenscum at 82.4%

Huh...what time period was that over?

This year. It was a crows puff piece for David Mckay being second in "retention" but also had a list of the worst which had Mundy clearly that.

Just one of those random stats to prove a point like "half back intercept marks for July"
I wonder what Jack Watts retention rate was after those intercept marks

How did the Eagles players go in that stat?

How the **** did we lose to them?? How????

Yah, one goal till half-time. Ahhhhhhhhhhh! Still spewing about getting done by Carltank - should never have lost that - we dropped intensity for the last 10 minutes thinking we had done enough and that is what happens. Anyway, glad to see them getting burnt now!

 

[Pea Barrel]

They are weak as piss. And we couldn't beat them. :-(

 

[Pea Barrel]

I guess you can say that they don't play very well when not getting an armchair ride from the umps.

 

[The Falcon Strike]

Didn't watch last week's game - but how the hell
Did we lose to these spuds!

 

[ChampRevesby]

Just goes to show the massive gap between the top 6 teams and us.

 

[Biggie]

Really disgraceful.

Our performance last week that is.

 

[Biggie]

Oh well at least Warnock kicked a pack goal 2 weeks in a row...

 

[PAdman]

Holy shit Carlton are bad and were even worse than them. Our midfield is so pathetic.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Here they come

 

[Pea Barrel]

Come on. For three quarters were out scored them by 8 goals. I think it'd be fairer to say that we're better than them, but when we switch off we are dire.

 

[MrKK]

Carlton are a very good 4th-quarter side; I guess that's what happens when you play the first 3 at half-pace. Watching that game tonight made me even angrier that we lost to that bunch of spuds.

 

[Keys]

Tipped collingwood by 34. Genius. Now if only I'd put money on that

It made me think that if we turn up to the MCG in 3 weeks to play Collingwood with the game we brought last week, we're going to receive an almighty spanking.

Free reign for everyone to kick a goal bar Cloke. Still think either Brown or Emac would keep him quiet. Harry.L will try to keep Lecras goal less and one of their young guns will score a rising star nom,against us.
Still crazy that they have Sharenberg and Freeman, top 10 picks to debut.

Wce took too long to turn the momentum around and then ran out of time .The Hutchings miss from 15 metres out plus the 50 metres penalty he gave away were lowlights for me ..

 

[ChampRevesby]

Hawks to go all the way this year.
