Roast How, Howe?

[Proper Gander]

One of the youngest premiership sides ever in 2010 to a pretty old list in 2011. How does that work?

I guess they worry lots

Collingwood are not playing finals next season.

Why Not? We have more Chance then you Guys do next year

Without knowing exactly what was in Wowlace's head there, I'm guessing he thinks that 8 or more teams will finish higher than the pies.

As to the bit about where we will finish, I don't recall it raised in this thread. But if ladder predictions are a specialty of yours, you can knock yourself out on the main board.

2016 Season has not Started so Teams could finish anywhere

Yes





(...and???)

Think Collingwood will play finals, but it'd be hilarious if they missed the 8 again. Also they paid overs for Howe but meh, their problem now.

Fixed. Hate to be a grammar Nazi.

For the love of God, now you come onto team boards because you can't handle anything negative about Collingwood? Let it go.

Weird part is - by my reckoning, nobody had even made a start on negativity.

I'm a Melbourne supporter so I am attuned to the various genuine levels of negativity. It's a science that few others can truly master.

Does Dez get to use random capitals responding? I hope that's okay

As instigator of this thread, I feel some responsibility to make certain of fair play in this one

Melbourne board, bugger off

 

[Cannon82]

How do you pick which words you capitalize? Do you have favourites, a formula or do you just roll with what you're feeling at the time?

MORE THEN HAPPY TOO

 

[Proper Gander]

I'm looking for a pattern which I suspect isn't there - like the capitals spell out another word. But last time it just spelled YMPA. I googled that and it could be Young Men's Preparatory Academy - which is something in Miami so confusing that I can't really sus from the website what it is.

Beyond subliminal messaging though, I'm not certain

MORE THEN HAPPY TOO

I'm not googling that

At least we didn't lose to Melbourne last season.

 

[Proper Gander]

Time to move on. All the best Howie thanks for the memories.

You can move on - a sensible response. I however have managed to talk myself into a grudge and put some effort behind doing so. So I would like a period in which to nurse it

We didn't beat them either, though. But then, I guess, we didn't have Travis "six straight" Cloke though, did we...

Seven.

I swear he only does that against us.

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

If I played for a team that needed me to kick seven goals to beat Melbourne, I'd be crying myself to sleep.

Does it ever occur to anyone else, after MFC invented football - whose idiot idea was it to invite other teams into the competition??? But for that we would be spared these Cloke moments of pain, we would have a million uncontested flags and would own Bigfooty.

Okay I am a bit drunk but I feel certain there is a kernel of sense in there somewhere.

Edit: no, there isn't really so carry on.

I always thought Melbourne would be better with out Howe and should trade him out while he has value, just was hoping we weren't the sucker club to pick him up (sigh...)

Maybe you'll get lucky. I'm okay with him gone, but he might get a surge of something what with the change and loving pies etc. anyhow, good luck

He might do better in what SHOULD ( ) be a better side next year, but he is the epitome of all style no substance. If Bucks can kick his ass and make him work harder (His defensive efforts are non-existent) he could be a pretty good pickup.
