Mega Thread Non-Freo AFL Discussion 2022

[Sweetback]

Anyway, I hope we beat the Pies convincingly, especially with our ins and their ins. That’d make me feel better about where we’re at.

Cerra was invisible in the 2nd half but he’s having a good year. PB’s in all stats.
He’s never going to be a match winner but a fine support player for real game changers like Cripps. More than happy to trade him for Amiss plus use the cap space to bring in Brodie & MJ 2nd.

No luckier than we are, Ibrwckon.

Sounds like you're responding to a Star Wars character

 

[ImperialPurple]

Wonder if bigfooty mods can do an IP ban. Someone should test this.

Oi! Leave me out of it!!

Think this is an accurate summation of Cerra. To borrow a phrase from an EPL soccer pundit and ex-player, “he’s a good player, not a great player”
I feel like Cerra sometimes goes through the motions when playing footy. He’s never going to put the team on his back and carry them out of a hole.

Cripps is a great player.
Brayshaw is well on his way to becoming a great player.
Cerra seems to be plateauing at good player. Nothing wrong with that. As long as Amiss becomes a good player, we haven’t lost the trade.

, I don’t notice him hugely in games when watching Carlton play. Is he a touch of a stat padder, a la Darcy Parish

He doesn’t get huge metres gained but he does put his teammates in attacking positions with his decision making. I’d take him over over Parish 100 times out of 100

 

[Wray27]

I reckon we got Geelong at the right time. Against Carlton we were lucky their ruckman went down in the first quarter. Other than the suns and maybe crows, everyone else we’ve played have been basket cases.

Saints??

 

[Sweetback]

Saints??

Yes, we lost to them, so we weren’t lucky and they aren’t a basket case. Same deal with the suns.

Pretending? I assumed we were in full flight crash and burn mode.

Head over to the main board for a quick peek on that most odious of threads, the rolling AA team.
Saw a Richmond nuffie saying Dusty Martin was a “Smokey” having played *checks notes - 3 out of 9 games so far this year.

Got out of there as quick as I could.

 

[Spirit Level]

Whis dumb idea is it to have both Saturday arvo games start at the same time? FFS space them out by 25 mins so you can switch during breaks

 

[One_Wing]

Damn Geelong making our win less special by playing worse football after.

Yeah we're really starting to discover just how unimpressive our win there actually was. Makes me readjust my expectations a bit

Chock full of old blokes with seemingly zero young talent coming through, and far too many downhill skiers.

Look to be fair we still did it without tabs, darcy, chappy, young, and fyfe

De Koning looks quite good. Wonder if Carlton will try and poach.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Lol you lot, Geelong are a very good side at home and we were missing 3 of our most important players. Writing off the Carlton win as lucky is ridiculous. We were the better team, fullstop. The almighty Carlton lost to GC away as well remember.

We are a good team, contending this year? Probably not but that’s ok, still ahead of where most saw us at the start of the year

 

[One_Wing]

5 disposals for Rowell today. But nah GC totally have no need for Brodie.

Still contending even if we’re behind Brisbane by bit and Melbourne by a mile. Every team can have a bad day and maybe they happen at the same time in the prelims.

 

[Tbonefreo]

Im going to the game next weekend. The missus got tickets. $100 bucks a pop. I didn't buy them but surely she got jacked?

Played his grand final last week.
