Oppo Camp Non-Essendon Thread XII

[Alfred E Neuman]

That's was the epitome of 'rolling over and dying.' Gold Coast have endured a shocking month as a club and it's clearly taken its toll. There are players out there that are both just done with the club, done with the season, done with the factors affecting it that won't be there next year and just over AFL as a whole.

What an utter disgrace.

Yep. That was shades of us against Adelaide in 2015.

GWS v Richmond last year was the same - things can turn around quickly.

Only took Melbourne 7 games to figure out Melksham's best suited position compared to 6 years at Essendon and we still never got him settled. Amazing.

Well Goodwin did see him at Essendon too, so not just 7 games

 

[sameolds33]

Did Melbourne just strategically tank for 8th spot and a final not against Sydney? ...believing we will beat Freo and finish 7th on percentage?

there's form...

Current TOP 4 Port Adelaide in 2017:

Against top half teams-

Played 10, Won 2, Lost 8

795 points for (Av. 79.5 ppg)
985 against(Av. 98.5 ppg)
Overall % = 80.7

Against bottom half teams-

Played 12, Won 12, Lost 0

1373 points for (Av. 114.4 ppg)
686 points against (Av. 57.2 ppg)
Overall % = 200.14

Fair to say West Coast can handball their flat tracker tag over to the Power!

Yeah I have egg on my face (not going to bother trawling through all those posts to find the ones mocking me). Well, that's that. Move on.

Please, please, for the love of God, learn from this latest instance of you being completely and absolutely wrong, and at least try to post with some semblance of humility, rather than the usual baseless overconfidence and hubris that many of us are sick and tired of.

 

[Teflon Dons]

Mate, considering he kept Buddy to one genuine goal and 2 from soft free kicks in 2015 when he last played on him, I's say he goes ok. You are wrong about Hurley and it's getting tiring.

Good thanks mate yourself?

Where's the fun in that though?

One lesson well worth learning. It is OK to have confidence and even a bit of arrogance in your belief but it is always a good idea to be up front and admit when you get them wrong

Game Day with several Melbourne guests on. Were obviously anticipating talking to them about what it's like to be playing finals.

 

[Summer Nights]

Good thanks mate yourself?

 

[vast]

expecting the saints and west coast to get some extremely favorable umpiring today so Gil can sell his 1 million finals tickets or whatever it was.

 

[vast]

Lol the Dees board have an Crows v Eagle gameday thread going the poor bastards. I hope that is not us today if the unthinkable happens.

 

[doug85]

What time does the fight start?

 

[raskolnikov]

Saints spudding it up.

 

[Skipper_]

WTF Townsend has three before half-time. AGAIN.

 

[JT_the_Man]

Richmond are slaughtering the Saints.

 

[Skipper_]

Richmond are slaughtering the Saints.

Saints are pathetic.

 

[JayJ20]

So Sydney it is unless West Coast beat Adelaide by about 40 or so points

So Sydney it is unless West Coast beat Adelaide by about 40 or so points

It's a proper taste of finals footy, ie away to a seasoned team (who played in last year's GF no less)

 

[Skipper_]

The comeback is on!

 

[JT_the_Man]

I would hate too be a Dees fan right about now.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

GO EAGLES

 

[vast]

I would hate too be a Dees fan right about now.

Thank god they lost because if this continues west coast may have knocked us out on percentage lol
