Opinion Non-Crows AFL 12: It's the confectionery with 1000 uses

[beartoo]

Some of the most amusing things in AFL history have taken place in the last few weeks.
1st it was the Bulldogs complaining about throwing the ball. Next it's the Hawks complaining about dodgy frees. All done with no sense of irony whatever.

Very interesting of people to use their real name when being personally nasty.


RoCo just posted this.... then a corporate profile... FAFO

 

[treeman]

Can you still buy GF tickets through individual clubs or are they all outsourced? I remember back in 2017 people could get them from gold coast etc as it was a fundraiser for them.

Asking for a friend.

Saw someone paid $2750 I've seen some for around $3250 still available at afl event office but that looks the cheapest st.

Must be a Jeff thing

 

[Cromulant]

RoCo is an unbelievably floggy human

I think is it a Port Power thing. They don't like RoCo at all now. His article about us being a team that neutrals with no finals could get around for premiers.

It sticks in their craw.

 

[Greenfinger]

I think the best we can hope for is Sydney hold them to a smallish win.

Agree but just pointing out that we should not be excited about cats beating port

 

[Cranky Bear]

It did the complete opposite of that.

Ok it's quite possible I had a few too many frothies before I posted this.

 

[Greenfinger]

Cats won’t lose a game. So 4 teams still vying for top 2

Sure. Not saying that won’t but I was reacting to someone being excited about them beating port. Normal rules don’t apply. We want cats to loose something so should be barracking against them in every game

Ok Jeff

 

[GameofSloanes]

Port paying $12.50, worth a flutter and a do it for ken day.

The showdown loss could be their smallest loss for the rest of the year

If the afl want us to be the fairy tale story that's fine with me

He's not the flog in this situation though.

Yep. Their Grand Final was last week and they didn't even show up to that. They're on holiday already and Geelong are a team that love to rip weak teams to shreds. 119 would be a modest estimate for today.

Are bottom teams spending longer in the doldrums than in previous years?

Is it getting harder for clubs at low ebbs to bounce back up the ladder?

Probably a mathematical exercise... for someone else.

 

[spenze]

Have they reviewed their 5-year plan which required three premierships yet?

They were really huffing their own farts big time back then

I've crunched the numbers for you, and the answer is, maybe.

Are Carlton the anomoly in this?

Give Curtis 3 games

Rozee out, shouldn’t have played last week

Geelong have to win by 150 pts today to overtake our percentage. I expect at least an 80 pt win.

I think they are certain to overtake us on percentage with their supersoft last three weeks.

The equation is simple, defeat Collingwood at home and take percentage out of the question. If we are a serious chance for the flag we beat Collingwood at home.

Keep in mind that we have West Coast and North and should get a good percentage boost out of those which means finishing 3rd at worse. But you're right, need to beat Collingwood and make it a certainty to finish 1st.

We’ve got West Coast and North

Desperation of a club that we are supposedly Professionally Jealous of
