In another thread a crows fan predicts that they will finish from 6-9. As nobody ever predicts their team will finsh below 8 (why would they be a fan if they thought otherwise) but some inevitably will then I thought we should automatically take their predictions and double them - to allow for averages)
Thus the crows will finish between 12 and 16.

Thus the footyspeak is as follows - real meaning after the hyphen

We'll win the flag for sure - Hope we make the GF

We'll finish top 4 - We'll make the top 8 and therefore the finals

We'll finish 5 - 9 - We might make the finals if we're lucky

We'll finish 8th - we have no chance, I hope we don't get the spoon

Waht other examples of footyspeak are there ? It can be in any context
 
good honest goer - no skills, slow as all f@ck

great clubman - absolute ******* on the field

quiet, prefers to keep to himself off the field - Billy no mates

"if they get a couple of goals here it'll make things interesting" - it's boring now

"we don't want to rely on other teams losing for us to make the finals" - coach holding calculator : "now if Hawthorn, Richmond and Bulldogs lose this week against the bottom three sides, and we knock off Essendon by 220 points or more, we're still in with a show"

Light and sound are but one - in the heart of creation the rest is for you to discover
 
We're rebuilding - we're hopeless losers without a clue

I'm resigning for personal reasons - I've been sacked

We gave it a red hot go - we tried but are still hopeless losers without a clue

Gotta a kick like a mule - can't handball

We're back in town - we've just won two in a row for the first time in years

An enthusiastic crowd - a tiny crowd

We're training really well at the moment - We're still hopeless losers without a clue

the list is endless !
 
"we will take a lot out of that game" - we got flogged.

"I like tagging players like Harvey...he leads you to the ball and teaches you where to run" - I have abolutley no idea what I am doing.

"we're taking it one week at a time" - I can see the premiership cup in my hands right now.

"the coach has the full support of the board"

OK I'll have a crack-

"Those allegations are unfounded" - How do you know that?

"They're playing for pride now" - Please stay tuned until the end.

"He's got a big heart" - Why was he selected?

"We'll only review that at the end of the season" - He's as good as gone.

"They played with a lot of passion" - They pulled that one straight out of their arse.

"Yeah, we're gonna have a good hard look at ourselves" - Thank god for cliches at times like this...
 
"Hird has sustained an injury at training" - His manicurist fears he may have split a nail.
"Richmond can make the eight this year" - Only if eight other clubs drop out of the comp.
"Malcolm has his own way of doing things" - he is ****in' looney.
"The Schwass/Grant trade was a win for both clubs" - until Schwass retires.
"Collingwood are in a rebuilding phase" - that should buy us a couple of years whilst we work this shit out.

------------------
Trample the Weak,
Hurdle the Dead.
 
"What a wonderful left foot kick he is" - Cant kick right foot.

"I was pleased with the efforts from the boys today" - When will they learn to play like men.


"Were talking to the league about our draw" -Were sick of travelling interstate six times a year.

and a few some umpy quotes,

"the umpirings been good today" - the umpires favoured the home side.
"the umpires have been terrible today" - the umpires favoured the away side.

"We thought the umpires did a fair job" -Did you see those charitys we got hahaha!
"I dont want to comment on the umpires" - We were bloody crucified, those white maggots should be shot.
 
"The competition is in great shape" - But we're going to f*** around with it anyway
