How do you pass the time waiting for September?

When your team is dominating, clearly the best in the business, a lock for a dream September run, and all the games between now and September feel like dead rubbers, how do you stay interested in footy?

I'm feeling like one of my hobbies has been taken away. Football just seems a touch boring. It's all just so predictable. Doesn't seem to matter who, what or where, the results just all seem to go the same way.

I'd like to hear from the Geelong fans about how they felt in their premiership window. Richmond fans too. And maybe Essendon fans if they can remember what it was like in 2000. How did you guys cope?

Collingwood fans need not reply.

I’ve got a ticket to Mexico for you in September.

 

[Scritchyscroony]

Poor Carlton supporters. Must be very disheartening.
I just hope they can all find the nourishment they need in the off season to get their hopes up again for next year.

 

[Delisted]

Oh... Oh my.

 

[Lance Uppercut]

Biggest backfire of all time. Embarrassing af!!

 

[Soaring Magpie]

It’s such a shame the “best in the business” won’t be there when it counts.
Perhaps the side fell asleep at the wheel whilst waiting for September to roll around.

Some of us are used to failure, it's business as usual.

Outstanding! Always is!

This thread invited all sorts of Bad mojo to creep in

 

[bradfisher14]

This is quite possibly the most spectacular backfire I have ever seen on the internet in my life.

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Why would anyone tempt fate like this?

We laugh but all Carlton needs to do is beat 2 bottom 6 side, and Freo to drop one of Giants away or port at home

So Hawthorn's safe? Bit more subtle than krueze_missile I guess.

It's still doable but from the look of the team at the moment it's a long shot.

Watching my team lose most weeks.

Don't you look like a complete gimp once again............

There's a time & place to be gobby and it isn't at the start of July.

It’s irrelevant - when the thread was made they were second and flying, even if they scrape in they will be roadkill week one.

This is why the term May/June/July Premiers was invented. I get that the blue baggers have been starved of success for a very long time but given that their track record in the past couple of decades has been botchy to say the least, I think it would be wise for their supporters to wait for their team to be a mathematical certainty before they get ahead of themselves and spout this sort of hubris.

OK poindexter!

Looks like no Curnow or McKay this week. Might have to go a full on mosquito fleet forward line next few weeks

Enough good ideas in here to keep you busy until next April. Well played sir.

Yep. Flag is still ours.

This thread is a potential Hall of Famer!

Be great if someone could put together a list of the top 10 all time post fails. We could update if from time to time but right now, for so many reasons this is probably the biggest knob thread we have experienced in here.
