Gee Norf are in a bad way if they can only find one player to drop after the way they played against us.
Eagles could win this by 100
It's a great learning experience for their side, and if they lose by enough they get pick #1 and the first preseason draft pick which Carlton has ended the cold war on last year.

Its pretty cringy but most videos like this are no matter the subject. Its a bit absurd the amount of a hype for a 5 game super star. He's probably going to be a gun but jeeze it would be mildly amusing if he peters out into averageness.
Yeah it's not Rowell's fault. The kid is a gun and clearly a hard worker. AFL are doing him a disservice by over hyping his career of 5 games total. The knives will be out if he doesn't perform next year and that simply isn't fair on the kid.

It's not but he could always say no and not do videos on how he thinks for the AFL website. Unless of course he's being pressured into doing that kinda stuff which is disgusting if so.

Gold coast are a victim of circumstances, they are in one of the worst areas of Australia for people who are going to grow up and stay there, so no kid is going to grow up admiring some talent and stay there and become rusted on. As soon as the kid grows up or probably even while they are still growing they will move and go to some other place in Australia.

The culture on the gold coast is all about the drugs and the booze, nothing really matters to the people there except getting on the piss, so they are never going to foster a footy loving culture there or any sport for that matter.

Any player that goes to the Gold coast will never get that adoring fan club of fans chanting there name or following them to get there signature or anything like that, so it puts them off staying.

With all those factors at play and many other factors like not wanting to sit in 25 degree heat in the sun all day to watch the footy for example, it means that they will always be a basket case and they will peak at about 12th on the ladder and thats it.

This is great.😂😂😂😂. This is a direct result of an arrogant team culture and a smug coach thinking they can just rock up and go through the motions.
