Oppo Camp 2025 Other Games Rolling Thread

I'm sure they've got a big night planned for Danger tonight too

I'm shocked (but thrilled) they put in such a woeful performance.

I can hardly wait to watch Scott's presser.

All the journalists will be terrified of getting their heads bitten off.

If Scott doesn't praise Brisbane, I hope Caro bites his head off, and just like she has done to various lovers over the years after coitus.

Will is excellent, Levi denim has a fair way to go yet.

Yeah I'm not sold on Levi either yet. Will is a jet but Levi... I haven't put my finger on it yet but there just seems to be something lacking in his game. Have seen some very ordinary, slow looking attempts at chases from him, for example. TBF, it's super early days and he'll probably go on to have a fine career. I'm no talent spotter, that's for sure.

What an absolute pleasure watching Geelong get roflstomped at gmhbabcd stadium

It happens surprisingly regularly.

 

[Zzorse]

Gerard Whateley just confidently declared that this is the final hoodoo this Brisbane side have had to overcome and rattled off a couple more they've overcome, and conveniently left out the fact they haven't beaten the Pies at the MCG in 11 years

I'll admit I listen to his show, but I get ugly every time he disrespects our 2023 Grand Final win.

 

[Chunky Steak]

Good to see the most overpaid player in the AFL stinking it up again despite his team winning comfortably.

is just not a good footballer. So, so many rubbish games and just the odd half where he decides to show up. Must be nice sitting on a fat contract until 2029 when your only job is to have a crap haircut straight out of a 1991 high school yearbook.

83% TOG for 7 disposals, 3 marks, 0 hitouts, 1 tackle and 1 behind.

Imagine having Andrews as a defender and the likes of Morris and Will Ashcroft. Makes me jealous.

We’ve got a pretty decent defensive group. Are you not happy with that?

What does he say about it?

gets bags of goals in games where he has been rarely sighted. It drives me crazy. Unseen for twenty minutes, ball spills off the back of the pack, Cameron gathers and screws the pill over his shoulder. Unsighted for another 30 minutes, gets a chip pass thirty out and goals. Rinse and repeat.

He is clearly a class act, but I can't abide the way he plays. He never tears a game apart like a Carey or even Hawkins... it's this drip feed style where you discover he has kicked 5 goals in a game when you forgot he was playing during some periods of the match.

I suppose that's the sign of a good player but it just gets under my skin.

 

[JoinDate]

Vicky Park please remind the hubby that we beat the Lions at their home ground by 52 points.

 

[ipswichpies]

Yea wouldnt go that far

Yes I think the Daicos boys showed in Brisbane who was the better pair the Ashcroft bros have time to close the gap but so do the Daicos to widen it I think neither will ever be better than N Daicos anyway.

 

[domus]

On the flip side, I love watching Kai Lohmann in full flight. Imagine having that kind of talent- you can stand on heads, run all day and snap goals from all angles. Bobby Hill and Billy Elliott must have the same effect on opposition supporters!

 

[Matrix10]

Imagine having Andrews as a defender and the likes of Morris and Will Ashcroft. Makes me jealous.

What burns more , is that we we went with Dermattia over Morris. .

 

[anshell]

Brisbane did us a big favour tonight beating Geelong.

We have a massive chance with two games in hand compared to Geelong and Brisbane. If we're able to beat both St Kilda and West Coast, we'll go 10 points ahead of Brisbane and 12 points ahead of Geelong.

Let's seize on the opportunity.

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the result tonight.If we win the next two games we’ll essentially be three games ahead of our nearest rivals,a fantastic position to be in.Let’s hope we don’t stuff it up tomorrow night against St Kilda.

 

[Zzorse]

What does he say about it?

Going from memory, either during the Grand Final broadcast or on one of his shows shortly thereafter he suggested there should be an asterisk by the win because of an umpire's advantage call late in the 4th quarter. He went berserk on air during the game as that play happened. Over time he has brought it up. During a recent visit by Razor Ray he brought it up again. Maybe he's just a man asking questions. Maybe he's biased against Collingwood. Maybe he's both. I find it distasteful.

 

[legendstatus]

Every man and his dog wanted Morris in the draft and the fact we were interested and well in the hunt for him and we get DM instead, is a parting gift from Hines

Poor bloke was pacing around a lot last night, making noises which sounded like a cross between a sigh and a grunt. If there is such a thing as a ‘reality check’ noise - then that is what I heard.

 

[Geelong_Bisons_#36]

Yea wouldnt go that far

I did say almost

 

[Geelong_Bisons_#36]

your moniker name makes me suspicious

I'm a pies fan, but live in Geelong.
The Bisons were an inline hockey team I used to play for many many years ago

 

[Geelong_Bisons_#36]

Yes I think the Daicos boys showed in Brisbane who was the better pair the Ashcroft bros have time to close the gap but so do the Daicos to widen it I think neither will ever be better than N Daicos anyway.

Fair point, it took Josh a few years to find his feet though.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Watching him play the last couple of years has only reaffirmed what I've always thought - he's got a good set of hands and is a good shot at goal but outside of that he offers very little else. The word 'soft' comes to mind.

Soft, lazy, entitled… all these adjectives spring to mind for me to describe Olly Henry. He simply doesn’t seem to care enough to do the team things.

I feel like you’ve never watched Cameron really play if you think the bolded is true. He’s absolutely torn games apart and has regularly gotten 18+ disposals and a bag of goals over the course of his career. He’s easily been one of the higher possession key forwards of the last decade.

 

[gouki88]

Why couldn’t Danger play like this when we played them?

He really spent a lot in his game against us. Hasn’t been close to that level since.

Yeah, might be the most absurd thing I’ve seen in a bit. He kicked 7.4 against us at the end of 2023!

Good to see the most overpaid player in the AFL stinking it up again despite his team winning comfortably.

Eric Hipwood is just not a good footballer. So, so many rubbish games and just the odd half where he decides to show up. Must be nice sitting on a fat contract until 2029 when your only job is to have a crap haircut straight out of a 1991 high school yearbook.

83% TOG for 7 disposals, 3 marks, 0 hitouts, 1 tackle and 1 behind.

I was watching the game on TV with my son, and when Hipwood marked, I said "He'll miss this", and sure enough.
I always want him to play against us because you can rely on him to turn in a stinker.
I then explained to my 11 year old what a flat track bully is.
