Non-Lions discussion 2021

[martinson]

Performance by Carlton has coach killer written all over it.

I think he knows he's done.

In his coach presos of late the words are full of hope and optimism and the look and the way he says it just total glum acceptance.

Players don’t care about fines. 2 in a game should be worth a week

 

[Hollow Knight]

The Fox aftershow talking about the potential of the Suns getting extra compensation picks.

Can feel a certain banner poster spontaneously combusting.

 

[Gadzorks]

Selwood gets away with murder and can do no wrong in the eyes of the MRP, so I'm predicting "insufficient contact".

That's just ugly. Got to wonder when he is going to back his team and himself to win without the grub stuff.

 

[Jivlain]

Really makes their position on Mackay look completely ridiculous. 3+ weeks is the appropriate penalty for going for the ball, apparently, but punching someone in the head once the ball's dead is fine.

On the same day Gil said protecting the head was the most pressing on field issue in fotty.

Of course Selwood gets off with a couple of fines.

Selwood pushes a players head into the turf
AFL - that's fine
Greene does the same
Also AFL - Burn him!!

Saints and sinners. It isn’t about right and wrong for the AFL. It is about which narrative a player belongs to. Selwood does something and it is an aberration, momentary misjudgement, “competitive”.

Greene does it and he is a perpetual bad boy.

Mummy gets away with "clumsy" tag too, its great to see Vic supporters lose their mind over it.

 

[AFLQLD]

Awful defence without a lot of pressure in the Hawks Bombers game but plenty of ball movement. Lots of room to move so not too bad to watch except that Maguire is commentating.

 

[MacMum]

Poor Mr MM is watching his Saints, he thinks he'll be in bed by qtr time.....a shellacking unfortunately is highly likely.

edit: atm in front with 2 goals. Tigers with 3pts. Could the unthinkable happen?

 

[Lion_LegacyXL]

Tigers looking flat like we were after the bye

 

[FLVanLandingham]

cotchin an angry little man tonight

nasty

Fakest "nice guy" in the league. Consistently snipes and whacks other players off the ball. Flog like all of his teammates.

 

[mattsmob]

Riewoldt gets away with at least 5 of those studs up free's during a game

 

[The Zork]

I reckon this whole Richmond mentality of we will make our finals run from now cause that’s what we do, will be their undoing.
They rely on complete buy in from 22 players and once players who don’t usually lose 1v1s start doing so, the rest drop right off and what’s exposed is a pretty vulnerable and ordinary outfit.

They’ll show their brand for 10-15 minutes here and there and it’ll be great footy but the hunger for 4 quarters is gone.

 

[MacMum]

He's not in bed yet!!

 

[jackess]

Go Saints.

 

[FLVanLandingham]

my goodness how on earth did they stuff that up

almost as bad as erics miss last night

 

[Ironmonger]

These teams played in the finals last year.

 

[martinson]

That's the worst half of footy it's ever been my displeasure to watch.

So many errors by both sides.

The Saints aren't much good and kept the Tigers to a goal. If the Tigers put it together they'll swamp them but no signs of it yet.

 

[scoman]

I think I should like the Saints of St Kilda to win this game of Australian Football against the Tigers of Richmond this late evening. It would please me.

 

[luthor]

He's not in bed yet!!

Tell him the Force is with him.

Richmond not even looking like it.

Saints impressive so far

They just need to maintain the rage and will win.

One of these teams won the flag last year

Riewoldt gets away with everything due to his constant whinging towards the umps. They are scared to pay a free against him unless it is absolutely blatant and even then...
