Sorry Jesus but I ventured a look at the Geelong board. Highlights were St 07 telling them they are going to get smashed and getting a mod warning 🤣, and crying that we call Smith sniff cause of that night Libba passed out haha bless them.
"WHY DIDN'T THEY CALL HIM TOM SNIFFATORE"? After he was found unconscious with ecstasy.

Probably because you don't sniff ecstasy? :shrug:

At least we don't cover up our players serial partying, by pretending their drink was spiked to avoid league punishment and accountability.
 
not sure if anyone else has posted this but has anyone noticed theres 3 umps from collingwood game(against us)

Umpires

They cover up plenty more than just early morning partying shenanigans.

Imagine if our media wasn't so captured by the Geelong 'myth'? Might actually do some proper investigative journalism.
 
Geelong beat us at Alphabet Stadium 11 times in a row between 2005 and 2022. In the five matches at Alphabet Stadium prior to those 11 matches, we won all five.

We've won our previous two matches at Alphabet Stadium so let's build some winning momentum at that sh1thole to replicate or even better the five consecutive victories we achieved between 1998 & 2003.

Some random facts about our five wins at their sh1thole between 1998 - 2003:

  • Four of those five victories involved comebacks to a certain degree.
    In 1999, we were 20 points down with seven minutes remaining and won by seven points.
    In 2001, we were 47 points down in Q2 before winning by seven points.
    In 2002, we were 40 points down 12 mins into Q2. We were in front at HT & won by 12 points.
    In 2003, we were 56 points up at 3/4 but only managed to win by 18 after Geelong mounted a late revival.

  • Sam Darcy was born the day prior to our 2003 victory. This is evidenced by Luke Darcy's post match interview on the ground, as well as the open piece of commentary as the ball is bounced to commence the match. This is available on YouTube which I've attached.

  • Lachie Bramble was born the day after our 1998 victory. This is evidenced by me being a nerd and actively searching for a random stat.

  • Arthur Jones was born two days prior to our 2003 victory. This is evidenced by Artie being one day older than Sam.

  • On the same day as the 1998 victory, the NFL draft takes place, with Tennessee quarterback and future Hall of Famer Peyton Manning selected as the first pick by the Indianapolis Colts.

  • On the same day as the 2002 victory, a Boeing 747-200 breaks apart in mid-air and plunges into the Taiwan Strait killing 225 people.

  • On the same day as our 2003 victory, Ben Curtis became the first golfer in over 90 years to win a major tournament in his debut appearance, claiming the British Open.
 
Last year's win felt like a turning point. They were in form, not missing many best 22 players and yet we destroyed them, the 47 point margin was generous, that was an 80 point win by all metrics. Cats fans will claim the conditions played a part but then they'll also turn around and say we can't win unless its at Marvel. Lets keep it going.

That 2002 victory….wasnt there a nice stat, you could have used? Hopefully it wasn’t being piloted by Capt Groenewagen

I recall that round nine victory extended a round nine winning streak that we had built over a number of years. Sadly that streak ended the following year when we lost to Adelaide in round nine despite being 23 pts up at 3/4 time.
 
Apparently Scott has spoken to the AFL and umpire department during the week to implore them to keep a close eye on Smith during the game and watch out for any incidence as he feels he will be targeted and his mental state/mental health could be negatively affected by undue attention from Bulldogs players.

This is one of the funniest and also most pathetic things I've read for a while (up there with today's Ricciuto whinge that a lopsided free count in Round 7 2016 cost the Crows the flag...)

But on this, it's so telling that Scott thinks his club deserves special treatment (and they'll likely get it).

Friends in high places and all that.

Stick it up em Dogs.

So Sniff starts it and then acts like a little bitch. No surprise.

Westy on Stewart. No mercy.
Stewart was playing in the midfield a lot last year. He may go back this week but there is the midfield option for him too.

The good part about that is that it sounds like it's in their and Smith heads. Hopefully we are just focused on footy.

I did think that was an option but I also think it could be a tactical move from Scott who likely sees it as a way to get Smith free kicks should he even be looked at. We've seen in the past when coaches make these claims to the AFL (usually about a forward getting held out of contests or a midfielder getting a particularly heavy tag) there is a gross over reaction for atleast one week.

If Scott is whinging to the umpires, taking Sniff off the track early then we're already right in their heads and even better it's all Sniff's own doing.

This would've been a mildly spicy contest anyway but he decided to empty a bag of red hot five alarm chillis into the pan and the heat is starting to get a bit much before he's even sat down at the dinner table.

Love it.

It was all fun and games for Smith a few weeks ago anyway I hope the boys give him the silent treatment during and after the game

We've just got to make sure all this carry on is not in OUR heads. It can work both ways.

Matty Boyd's hair in that footage, wow! I don't remember him with those luscious locks
