Oppo Camp Non Geelong football (AFL) discussion 2021/2022

[Down at K Park]

I heavily disliked parsons.

He’s up there with Kent kingsley as my least favourite geelong player EVER

I liked him when he took out hodge. That is all

If I remember correctly, that was the game Hodge put his elbow into Bartel's head causing concussion.
Parsons got him a beauty later in the game.

Also iirc Parsons got time off, hodge didn't

That was a period of time where Hodge was getting away with a bit. I think he cleaned up Marc Murphy that year.

Did he get any weeks for trying to drive Chad Wingard's head into the point post with a hip and shoulder?

How was Bruce? "Did he know the post was there?"

He knew what he was doing all along.

* And he did get suspended for that bump.

Should have changed his number to 007 back then

 

[CatToTheFuture]

I'll file this under "last decade could have been worse"

Sort of non Geelong football discussion...

Not sure if this has been said, but Ash Barty’s win has something in common with our 2007 premiership - in both cases a 44 year wait between Championship wins. 1963 for Cats, and 1977 for an Australian woman winning the Open

Scans have confirmed that St Kilda's Nick Coffield has suffered a torn ACL.
Season over before it started.

Poor lad, hope he gets back to full fitness soon

...this time next year, sadly.

Mitchell has suggested the unsociable Hawks are back.

You mean Sicily is back from injury?

 

[Cataholic]

That'd be a start for them - he looks like a real tool of a bloke on the field to me......

Mitchell said something along the lines of 'playing on the edge' again because they enjoyed some success being unsociable.

What’s the point when you are bottom 4?

If I recall correctly he believes it's an ingredient to success.

Was this was the blue print that got him the job over the incumbent?

It's not hard to imagine this being one aspect of his sales pitch that enticed them.

I just reckon the game has moved on since Mitchell last played. Unsociable football is playing on the edge and I can’t see the AFL allowing it to happen without repercussions

Yeah....... 'the edge' has been blunted quite a bit, and there's not much room left for physicality like that anymore.

I hear they're also calling the new HTB rule the 'Joel Selwood Law' and believe it'll finish his career, albeit years too late in their eyes.

A bitter mob over there.

Yeah good luck with that unless they think they are going to get special treatment.
