2017 Non Crows AFL Discussion Thread part 2

[Punchy Bassett]

'we were told to keep an eye on you, you've been close to the edge the last couple of weeks'

That's bollocks that's going in looking for something

No charges laid so any story can be made

So what did the umpire say to Greene?

You can hear it here:

http://www.afl.com.au/video/2017-04-28/greene-in-mrp-strife-again

"We've been telling you for a couple of weeks now that you've been getting very close to the edge and nearly going over it ..." then Greene makes his suggestion he was going for the ball and the ump says "it looked pretty clear from where I was and I was 100 metres away".

Ahh right - new thread. I went to the old thread and thought what have I been banned for this time.

Actually the picture I posted at point of contact, shows Greene was definitely going for the ball and that most of the contact was with the ball. The bulldog player did bend his neck after taking the mark.

Is it actually? Only very few people would understand that WoW reference.

I've also got this.

I reckon that video went pretty viral well outside of WoW circles

Hopefully our lurking friends from down the road are still in the old thread thinking "gee they've been quiet since yesterday"

Of course. I just mean, they're not worried at the moment with gunning for top or high percentage. They just need to be in a position to attack September.

As far as I'm concerned they'll be the ones to beat come September.

To be fair based on last year's exposed H&A form they were never gunning for top or high percentage. They weren't clearly better than anyone, just had a great finals series.

From the initial angle I was like everybody else wondering what for, then the other angle you can see him collect him hard. The concussion will hurt him.

They will arrive en masse and on cue if they win tonight.

Otherwise, we wont see Anus for a few weeks.

Ha ha you better be prepared. There is no 'if'. Brisbane are developing but they're a nonentity.

 

[GreyCrow]

I tipped Brisbane and 'backed em on footypunt''

jAnus will say that it's a deliberate tactic by Ken. Lose to the likely wooden spooners to lull the other clubs into a false sense of security. Allow them to underestimate Port when they play Port, then Port jumps them on the way to an unexpected flag

Spoke to someone who was involved in the 'incident' at the mosley last weekend.
Apparently there was no beating up on a woman and there was no jackson captain save em all love story.
What they told me is that there were 2 groups of drunk people and jackson got shitty when they were being too loud and rawkus in his mates pub just generally being drunk wankas. When the noise didnt go down and jackson got them outed from the pub a scuffle broke out. Punches were exchanged and no women were harmed in the altercation.
The pub owned by gray and boak has no evidence on cctv of the fight apparently. How convenient. Port Adelaide making up stories to cover their ass.

You'd want to be careful here. If there are more than a few people involved why wouldn't a story have broken earlier? Surely the ones he allegedly started a scuffle with would say something?

Probably best to just move on.

Honestly. This sounds just as inane as some of the other bullshit he peddles. We're far too deep into poe's law with that one.

I reckon they'll crucify him. It was a classical round-arm fist to the head, with blood, from a known campaigner. He did seem to have his eyes shut when he did it, but it was clearly very late.

The return hit to his head from GWS was much milder and open-handed: pity, really.

 

[GROTTO]

Im hoping for a warm humid game weather wise, it may just help the Lions.

Its 26 degrees today up there.

 

[JP Sauce]

If Mummy gets even a fine for that tackle then I'm done with footy.

 

[JP Sauce]

For an hour or so.

I had a 5 minute internal debate about it. Really wanted to tip Brissy, they've looked good when I've watched them. Just think a bit too inexperienced today. But wouldn't surprise me if they won.

 

[Grooster24]

That is the best thing I've seen on Bigfooty for a while. He framed it

I like how he/she took the time to cut out headlines and captions from various articles. True dedication. [emoji106][emoji1]

 

[Anzacpaul]

Lingy talks some shit.

I wish they'd remain ex players giving commentary, instead of bathwater drinking media personalities.

No way. He wanted to punch him in the face ... and he did.

 

[Geoffa32]

I l8ke Toby Greene. Love players who have that attitude, Balls, Milne (On field) Didak, Atkins etc. They are the kind of guy you want by your side.

But he will go for at least four. He knew what he was doing. Tried to hide it pretending to be going the ball. But his timing was off and got a clean hit to the chopss.
