Oppo Camp Non Geelong football (AFL) discussion 2021

Nothing's changing, SC. I don't know why you're getting so wound up. People will go on being classless and not clever at the footy.

And everywhere else they go as well.

I just don't see the point. Even if you've just gone to a black tie gala celebrating you solving a giant maths equation like out of Good Will Hunting
Its only 2 hours a week. Get out there! Go scream some advice at the best athletes in the country.
Have some fun.

You really do seem to hate the modern game with most of your posts...why bother watching if all you’re going to do is whinge about the “lack of physicality” and the rules of the game

Because I love the game, I don't 'hate' it.

That said, I rue the negative impact - imo - caused by the AFL's incessant meddling with its rules, its hypocrisy and blatant double-standards.

And I thought the purpose of this site was to exchange social commentary and opinions on the game.

'Advice'? Don't see how you could call it advice. It's just juvenile and insipid babbling without any reasonable foundation. And having fun by denigrating others is hugely overrated in my view.

Anyway, carry on. As everyone who loves it undoubtedly will. In the same way that those who long to boo don't want anyone telling them not to do so, I'm hardly going to change my view just because others think it's a significant and valued part of the fabric of footy and organised sport.

Fair enough.

Ugh, another Friday night game against the Tigers. At least they had the decency to make it a 7:50 start and it's their home game this time

Their home game, they can schedule it for 3am all I care. Just don't dictate where and when our home games get played....

We'll see when the return game is scheduled. 7:10 on a Friday is my guess

If it's a Friday, it'll be 7.50. That won't change (finals have all been 7.40 or 7.50, never earlier).

I hope for Saturday 2pm but that's a fox game and we know that Ch7 would have these games all sucked up.

That's why goal kicking is not as good these days because the goal posts are so tall now

You’d think that the academy cheats will win easy tonight

Dons about to 14 points up.

Yep nice to see the cheats struggle tonight

they both cheats. academy or peptides, both should be illegal.

Guldren and Warner are already better players in game four of their careers than some of our 50+ game players.

We don't have the luxury of picking up top 3 picks with our 3rd round picks.

(and when we do, they conveniently get re-classified to be taken by the bulldogs instead)

Well if we could have access to best kids for a discounted price while double dipping in the draft for another top pick kid we would have a very talented group of kids

What does “interpretate” mean? Jobe, cmon.

Slurred and stumbling speech is a common symptom when under an influence.......

 

[BlakeyNoFlakey]

Cover the corridor and Sydney's "hot game" is toast. You have to laugh at the media flogs who have been frothing at the mouth about Sydney all week. They may still win tonight, but neither of these teams are top 8 sides IMO.

 

[allrighty]

Watching Dons and Swans. HTB is SOOOOO inconsistent. The WORST rule in the AFL

 

[My Tilly]

Both teams look incredibly fatigued at the moment

 

[Strange Cat]

Damn the academy cheats won...oh well at least we have Ess second round draft pick

 

[Spearman]

like how Buddy plays dead after a spoil glances his head, then pops up after he notices teammate has played on lol

 

[Turkey Tom]

Turned it on for the last 10 minutes...Hame (inane), Darce (boring) and Jobe (boring and a drug cheat). What a combination. lol Glad I didn't have to put up with them for longer.
