Game Day Around The Grounds - Rnds 0 - 5

[Aphrodite]

This is a new season, and we're going to kick things off with a little bit of a change.

This thread is for discussion of the games we aren't playing in. It is not a thread to constantly refer to how well/badly we are going in our own games, nor is it a place to ruin the enjoyment of others with constant jabs or referrals to Carlton's woes.

Any posts that do so continuously will get deleted, and anyone who continues to push the envelope afterwards will find themselves threadbanned.

Thanks all!

 

[Sam The Doc]

Barely seen Marshall, Tdk factor ?

 

[Benaly28]

Brilliant use of Pendles off the bench.Forget this playing two rucks it’s all about player management.

 

[RPCB]

No David King, that’s the bare minimum you want to see when you’re paying someone $1.8 million a year.

 

[Gethelred]

It's high contact, but he didn't punch you in the nose, Mitch.

 

[Wickzki]

The new out of bounds rules do not favor Silvagni

 

[Gethelred]

The Aints look like an almost side this year.

 

[Wickzki]

The Aints look like an almost side this year.

An historic improvement

Brilliant use of Pendles off the bench.Forget this playing two rucks it’s all about player management.

Teams almost now using 3 bench and 2 spots for extended rest.

 

[Wickzki]

How about the unrealistic attempt there umpire? He got nowhere near it

Lots of gifts to the Saints.

 

[Gabagool]

Dropping/holding the ball any day of the week.

 

[Wickzki]

Mitch Owens has a punchable head and personality for such a decidedly average player

 

[Gabagool]

And another gift for the Saints...that high fend off wouldn't have knocked the head off a beer

 

[agro]

Moronic Shit Kilda supporters do know there is no historical evidence that Vikings ever wore helmets with horns.

 

[ITCHY EYEBALLS]

Frampton makes Lewy Young look like Ross Glendenning.

 

[Aphrodite]

WTF is it with those RSEA yellow safety hats in that Linton St Rabble cheer squad.

Hideous

 

[Wickzki]

Saints gotten a magic carpet ride from the umpires that half, Collingwood look shite for the most part and they're only up by 2. Yikes.

 

[Just Kreuzing]

The Aints look like an almost side this year.

Just wait until Liam Ryan & JSos get their injuries!

 

[SolGoodman]

Cameron consistently beats TDK when they match up, very good ruckman.

 

[Gethelred]

WTAF is Dunstall on about?

Andrews deliberately went to clothesline a bloke and knocked him out. It was entirely deliberate, and he arguably deserves another week.

You on the side of concussion, Jason?

****'s sake. Everyone has an expiration date as a commentator of sense, and it seems he's reaching his.

 

[Red_man2008]

I'm reminded of Brisbane after getting Fev.

Early doors looked like an absolute no brainer.

Honeymoon period. Everything is blissful.

Then when the going gets tough it falls apart.

Suspect the same will happen with the Saints.

They’re still a momentum team that doesn’t defend but down hill skiis when it’s working. They look terrible when Collingwood go to a kicking game.

 

[SolGoodman]

McCreery is the definition of an X-Factor player.

 

[Gabagool]

McCreery is good to watch and hard to stop when he's on.

 

[SolGoodman]

5 goal assists in 2 and a bit quarters to Pendlebury is insanity.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Owen.

He’s hot right now.

 

[agro]

Shit Kilda not only have they recruited like millionaires they’re going to play like them as well - not playing out to well for them.
