Lid status thread: Harold Holt

[skam85]

Currently off, soon to be non-existent.

Will keep updating through the season. I guess this can be 2025's version of the happy happy positives only thread, George's favourite.

What I like (among many other things) is how we've scored 296pts in two games and Tex has only contributed 13 of them.

That confirms we're looking at a dynasty. Fire up

 

[ThePrideOf]

Leave it on please!!!

I also like how our "No Rangas" selection policy has catapulted us into premiership contention.

Lid definitely off. I can't even find it anymore.

 

[Brenton Davy]

Good grief! I’ve still got it on and sealed tight. Not game to think otherwise yet.

 

[Samcro24]

Skam should be banned

 

[GROTTO]

What Lid? Ive made bookings.

 

[Velvet George]

Can you feel it?

 

[beartoo]

Get to week 6 and we're still on the up and I'll raise the lid a little.
Traumatised by past years.

[ams4crows]

Lid stays on!..... For now

 

[Coopers]

Can you feel it?

No, but I can smell it.

 

[Crom]

Lid status can remain on until we qualify for finals.

 

[AFC3000]

What could go wrong? Remove the lid!

 

[skam85]

You're all a bunch of buzz kills

especially you Samcro24

God what a shit year 2013 was

We’ve played 2 games and have beaten 2 teams with injuries that are both expected to miss the top 8. Yeah, we won convincingly, but so should have just about any injury-free team.

 

[SugarShane]

Test 1: Get to Round 5 at 4-0 (defeat NM at home and GC away). This would partially dislodge my lid.

Test 2: Get to Round 11 at 6-4 or better. This means beating 2 of Geelong, GWS, Carlton at home, or Freo, Port or Collingwood away. This would largely impact the structural integrity of my lid.
Get to Round 11 7-3 and I'll start printing the shirts.

One of those teams just knocked off a flag fancy in Geelong.

 

[VKCrow]

Don’t do this to me. Too early to call. If we beat geelong at Alphabet stadium and Collingwood at the G then rip the bastard off

 

[davos44]

Hawks, Pies and Port twice to come.

We beat the Pies or Sydney away we know we have arrived.

14 games before a bye....

Before the bye we have Sydney A, Brisbane H, Hawks A. This is a season defining 3 weeks, we should be rotating players our players in and out after the Giants game at home to ensure we keep them fresh.

Not having an early bye really took a toll on us last year with Richmond beating us at home, then letting Amarty kick 9 after being in front at half time.

 

[Coopers]

Carlton at home, or Freo

Not sure these are that much of a benchmark.

Like, I'm 90% sure based on current form that I could beat those guys. Just me.

 

[The Smith Revolution]

I’d rather not beat a couple of those smart arse teams - Hawthorn I’m looking at you - until finals. Creep up on the suckers like Richmond did to us in 17. Destroy everyone else but take the pain learn and then reply with authority.

But yes Sid the kid has us lifting the lid.

 

[FR0GGY]

Hard to see our next loss really.
