Opinion Non-Crows AFL 4: The Centre Cannot Hold

[GROTTO]

Fun Facts with Grotto

In the 2022 Season, 4 "New Coaches" coached their team for the first time.

All 4 won as decent sized underdogs.

Im counting Ashley Hanson last night for the Blues.

I hope Thilthorpe is watching the way McKay is marking the ball, we need him to emulate him

People being pretty hard on TT..... he's performed better than JUH and mcdonald so far

Correct me if I am wrong, but that kick late in the game to Sloane, Sloane should have known a lot better to direct him wear to kick it.

I mean whats the point of having that experience, if he cant direct young players and tell them to go down the boundary line late in a game when you have the lead.

A corridor kick is really only when you are done and need to take risks.

Sonny Boy Williams ain't no Brett Staker, makes a difference when the opponents eyeballing ya hey Bazza.

Barry Hall is 45 and standing there with his guard down.

You might be past it now, mate ...

He was kicking it to Murray??

Sorry my bad, thought it was Sloane.

Gees Faith, Thilthorpe is 19 years old, give the bloke a chance. Could he attack the ball harder, sure it's his biggest fault but the other attributes are there.
We know you liked Logan McDonald but that ship has sailed, he ain't ever playing for us.
We all have our favourites at draft time but that's what makes us supporters... we have no actual say in any of these picks.
At his age and size I reckon he's still got a couple of years development before you can claim he's continuously letting us down.

Not to mention that, in one year, he has already kicked a bag (in his debut aswell), not to mention kicking three goals and winning a game off his own boot (St Kilda last year with the freakish kick overhead). That was in his FIRST YEAR. What is wrong with people.

VIC media doesn't even try to hide their bias.

Dunstall last night - 'When the big Victorian teams play well, it's good for the game - and for the future of the game!'

WTF does that even mean?

Pretty sure every mistake made last weekend was Sloane. My eyes aren't great though.

Wouldn't be another AFL sanctioned 'strike' related cover up?

According to Foxtel, he's missing his dead father.

 

[Punchy Bassett]

So, just going with the Barty retirement in her prime theme, what is the closest AFL equivalent you can think of?
I'll start the ball rolling and name Alex Rance.
Over to you...

Not AFL but Eric Cantona was in his prime and just walked away, but totally fitted in with his personality.

 

[ams4crows]

According to Foxtel, he's missing his dead father.

Which is completely understandable, I know everyone immediately wants to think personal leave means drugs these days, but he has a legitimate reason to have personally leave particularly if he's struggling with grief, he may never have felt like this before.

We probably need to give Dusty the benefit of the doubt here

It means that we only care about Victoria. The rest is just a distraction.

Bigger crowds, more TV viewers.

It generates clicks

I guess I was posting it for a laugh as its not like Carlton and their minions have never had egg on their face before and if a sports bet company is already paying out..what if Carlton fall over and don't make finals..laughs all round

Farcical...Eddie is bang on.

...to the singing of Never Tear Us Apart as the ball is bounced, everything is unique to our club.

Im sure the Newcastle Jets fans would say something about that

 

[Geoffa32]

Must be a flat track win coming up for Port this weekend with all the talk about how great they are in the media.

West Coast completely buggered, by the sound of things.

 

[treeman]

Carlton looked good under Teague early on as well, people are still going way too early.

That's true but it never looked really convincing with Teague. They often started poorly and then were able to over take the lead later on.

This feels different.

I knew Port supporters were clueless but I thought the players would be a bit more educated, you are right Port pinched it from the Jets.

In terms of Covid wiping them out on top of all the injuries? The Covid cases should only last 2 weeks if they all get it
