International Rules - Game 1

[Quicky]

It's about to start for those interested.

Anyone watching it?

Unfortunately no Pies connections even on the Irish side.

Still should be fun to watch.

I was going to watch, but then caught the 1/4 time and half time scores on Twitter.

Congrats for Channel Ten for the super delayed coverage, meant I didn't waste my time watching it.

The series will now die a rather slow death, can't see it continuing on after this debacle.

Metricon will be empty next week.

What? What debacle? Losing? The Irish are no mugs, gotta take them seriously or you won't be competitive.

Bring Back State of Orgion

Bring back the biff.........the only way to get a crowd for game two!

 

[Mick98]

Needs more Collingwood players

Mitch the bitch blows the game just before halftime, thanks Carlton

Needs more Collingwood players

No Wonder Ireland is Flogging the Aussies

 

[Knightmare]

Watching the game frankly I'm going for Ireland. I'm enjoying the way they're play. Playing hard, physical ball and they want to win.

The Aussie team is soft - going for too many soft frees. Watching them play I just don't feel anything for them at all.

Do you mean Clarke, Mooney & Cribbin? Then it would have been a 100 point flogging!

 

[JOELY]

what on earth was the irish guy doing running up to the huddle?

 

[Mick98]

No Wonder Ireland is Flogging the Aussies

Correct Dave......Like i said."Needs more Pie's"

Which way Dermie??Ours or theirs??

 

[Mars II]

Went to the game and snapped this beauty of brad green copping a puch in the face for his country.

I wouldn't be surprised if this was the last International Rules series for a while, at least in Australia.

 

[Quicky]

They should keep it in Ireland. Better atmosphere. It doesn't help we are taking the piss with selection. No one is going to be interested when they know the best players aren't there. People aren't that stupid.

Does not help that Majority of Players in the Team are Average AFL Players

Sums it up really..

Why is Jake King playing? Why is Angus Monfries playing? seriously.. WTF??

Travis Cloke even said he would have played... if he was asked!!

Can Australia say we have had a winner? Vince maybe? Gray has been ok, Douglas is good.. when he gets it.. bloody Aussies, it really is a farce isnt it?

I don't think Collingwood would have allowed Cloke to play, which is probably why he wasn't asked.

It is a crap squad though. Monfries at least was clean with his kicking, nearly all the rest were crap and weren't even running/playing on their man. You could tell the intensity wasn't there either.

Wouldn't even make the top 8..

Stephen Milne Brad Green Angus Monfries Robbie Gray Mitch Robinson Ben McGlynn Liam Shiels Bernie Vince Trent McKenzie Richard Douglas Matt Suckling James Kelly Easton Wood James Frawley David Wojcinski Zac Smith Andrew Swallow Callan Ward Jack Trengove Robin Nahas Shaun Grigg Jake King Mark Nicoski

Would back any of Collingwood, Geelong, Hawthorn, St Kilda, West Coast and Carlton to beat this team comfortably.

With the lack of any KPPs probably a couple of others would show this team up also.

Shows that this is going the same way as State of Orgion
