Opinion Non-Crows AFL 13: Offseason

[1970crow]

Yeah, he's an odd choice for a largely meat n potatoes crowd that would prefer the Foo Fighters or Hunters doing Holy Grail but he'll put on a show. Everyone has heard this




Most of his most recognisable songs are with other people though so don't know if they'll get a run

I had never heard that clutter of sounds in my entire life.

Kornball just on SEN saying Gunston is a medium forward so doesn’t mean Hawks are playing four talls…..Meanwhile Walker is 1cm shorter and is deemed a tall which means Adelaide’s three talls are questionable….seriously talking $hit.

Tex is playing less as a key at the moment as well.

Most of his work is winning ground ball, rarely a focal point. Marking around the 50 arc. Plus his work between the arcs.



The reason our 3 guys work is because they can all play up the ground and don't rely on being the focal point for most of the game.

I’ve always thought Gunner played more like a medium tall. I don’t think height is the sole determining factor when it comes to key player roles. When Bont rests forward I don’t see him playing as a key forward.

Also, is Tex a genuine key forward?

Yes kicked the most goals for our club, but his work between arcs and I50 delivery has been important during his career.

Lead out chest mark, or crash pack to mark at high point have never really been his strengths. Has been good, but not great.

 

[Geoffa32]

It’s a hilarious choice really.

The AFL loves to virtue signal at every opportunity.

Then it picks a weed smoking fornicator former Crip gang member as halftime entertainment.

Next year it will be Marilyn Manson...



I bet there is some sort of corporate tie in.

Snoop was at the Olympics representing NBC.

After about 10 rounds Tex was having about 40% of entries directed to him, was definitely a key focal point. Haven’t seen the updated stat, but he’s still getting a fair share of entries kicked at him.

I reckon that has changed.

Also stopped Rucking in F50 since then.

He is doing less strength work since season grind kicked in.



Is 40% high across the league? Georgiades would probably be over 60%?

Yes, 40% is high, Mitch wouldn’t be near 60%. Historically rated has led the league in this stat in the mud/high 40’s.

Diversity!

 

[Cromulant]

Diversity!

Ahhhh thats what they were going for.

I get it now.

FWIW I'm a Snoop fan, but I think its a bit of a miss from the AFL.

 

[StonesThrow]

Having a chuckle at Andrew Dillon talking up Snoop Dogs community work when his lyrics and drug use.

Saying he is culturally relevant to the AFL.... lol


And he spoke of Snoop in the Superbowl. His solo was the the most explicit. It was a great show BTW.


Is there a Snoop song that fits the AFL's moral agenda lol

I can't think of one, unless he does a Doggyland set, which is quite good for kids....

I associate snoop with smoking endo.

Kids now would associate snoop with food delivery.

 

[Geoffa32]

I am guessing The Temper Trap weren't available?

Gin and Juice is one of my fav Snoop songs but I legit don't know how that song can be cleared to be played at the Grand final

Change it to Essendin and juice?

 

[footy4ever]

Just because it’s not your type of music doesn’t mean Snoop doesn’t have many hits and has been relevant over a very long period of time. He’s also an awesome performer.

The dude opened the half time show at the Super Bowl which was one of the best half time shows in recent times.



You don’t get 17 Grammy nominations for doing just anything.

Personally, I think he’ll be great.

I feel sorry for anyone who grew up with that.

 

[ams4crows]

Instead of smoking endo it'll be injecting PEDs!

 

[footy4ever]

LOL, people think calling someone 'boomer' is an insult.

 

[FR0GGY]

Whatever boomer

 

[footy4ever]

Whatever boomer

thank you.

 

[footy4ever]

Because he doesn’t sing songs

Here's an idea. Lets get someone who talks smutt and tuff gangsta and rhymes them words with other kinds of sounds. Now that's entertainment!!

Poor guy.
