Oppo Camp Non Geelong football (AFL) discussion 2024, Part I

[winty]

Love it!

Absotely! Hoping for a Hawks win too. The way Hinkley carried on after Port squeaked home against us at the Cattery - including baiting the crowd - pissed me off.

It didn't for me, as it was "same old Port/Hinkley". Loser attitude. It's surprising that they're losing as Hawthorn are often poor, but it's not surprising that they drank their own bath water and served up something poor today.

 

[Mr Meow]

Like I said yesterday, barracking for the dawks with a liitle sick in my mouth. One extra ladder place up for us, but since it's Hawthorn, watch them fail last quarter just to prevent helping us.

Whisper it, but if Port lose to Hawthorn after Carlton got thumped and GWS lost to Bulldogs - the overall results this weekend (even with our bad loss) once again haven't been disastrous.

We are stuttering badly but only Sydney look a professional, high performing outfit. Collingwood to a degree but even they almost had a massive blunder yesterday.

Yes strange weekend. I'm barracking for Heeney, which I suppose means the Swans for 3 votes.
Thanks to the dogs we're still floating above a few.
Mind you I just caught the flipping dog chewed the pom off my brand new FREEZE beanie while I'm reading BF.
Grrrr,

Got to have a grudging respect for the Hawks, already gone past a few that have been rebuilding forever it be seems.

Their list build is tracking extremely well.

 

[Catsace]

True to a degree Mr Meow, but Collingwood infuriatingly but inexorably always win these close games. Statistically it's probably never been done before in modern footy, perhaps in the dim dark era of low scoring before W.W.1 or something, but time and again they win by under a goal. Always get the go-ahead score, and always hang on, albeit on occasions with some well-timed frees for, or non-calls of frees against. It's ridiculous to be honest, but THEY JUST KEEP DOING IT!!

 

[Baudolino]

Christ almighty that was selfish from Breust. How did he not give that handball?

 

[Mr Meow]

Their list build is tracking extremely well.

The scary thing is it's still 9 years since they won a final, but there are some good signs the past couple of years in between the horror show performances.

 

[Strange Cat]

Please let it be a close loss to send the port flogs over the edge

Yeah Collingwood have done it so consistently and over 3 seasons now that I don't even raise an eyebrow. They are clutch, lucky or opponents freak out against them when they have a chance to finish them - I'd say all three. And now they have the aura of defending premiers to slam that home further.

 

[winty]

Richmond's injury crisis keeps getting worse. No-one likes seeing stuff like this.

 

[Mad_Hatter]

Worpel has fumbled every ball the last 10 minutes.

 

[Interdimensional Bigfoot]

Wowie

 

[Strange Cat]

You had one job Hawks

 

[Munich]

Damn

Well, you called it.

 

[Mad_Hatter]

hawks choking is almost as funny as port losing at home would have been

 

[Catman]

Couldn't have happened to a nicer club.

 

[hoopla]

Wow. How bad a choke was that

 

[Falconx]

If that's not deserving of a coaching extension, then I don't know what is.

 

[winty]

Boy oh boy wowee.

 

[Munich]

Oh hang on our % is still higher so we remain in 3rd for now.

 

[Catsace]

Good thing I cashed out my tiny $1.50 multi when Hawks led by 6 goals late in the 3rd. Then again Dawks losing on the siren by a point, most Cats fans would like that

 

[Strange Cat]

For all the shit Scott copped in his early career about his behaviour in the box Kenny is far far worse on the boundary line and I’m surprised it’s never called out in the media like the attention Scott copped

 

[hoopla]

Still can’t believe the hawks blew that.

One observation…Jhf is a fantastic player but he’s a Ginnivan-level ducker.
