They now wear white shorts in all matches, it's bullshit, they didn't even wear blue shorts when they played the Crows at home six weeks ago. The AFL have diluted just about everything from this game, where is the clash with Geelong and Adelaide? Why did Hawthorn wear that crap white away strip against Freo? It's all bollocks!
Do people actually care about what colour shorts players are wearing? Would have thought there were much bigger things to be worried about lol.
Very good! Thanks so much. Big Footy at its best - informative, respectful.
Looking forward to it also, though got some other matches we need to take care of first. Adelaide have made a mess of things before so one at a time lol.
Im well into my 2nd half century and my mother still asks if i have clean undies and hanky. So yeah, there is def interest in this topic.
Liked that snoozers like you go for the crows learnt that snoozers like you can actually become bigger snoozers and hated that you are actually south Australian but thx for an easy reply to a flog post congratulationsLiked:
- Crows winning against our bogeys. Dammit that felt good, but it will mean four-fifths of **** all if we don't replicate that work rate and physicality in finals.
- Port losing to a top 8 side with the predictability of a Swiss watch. Thanks for the easy tip
Hated:
- Not much. Dangerfield's flopping was soft yet hilarious in context
Learnt:
- GWS with really big question marks about their hunger now, but I do think they'll come good in September. How good? We'll wait and see.
Not New Information:
- Sydney have come good
- Collingwood still clocking up wins here and there as they have for the last four years - juuust enough to prevent Bucks' immediate sacking but still circling the drain
Yes,yes we do, particularly those who have been around and experienced the golden age of football.
Talk about salty....
Yeah that's ridiculous and hugely unfair. It's the same in that Carlton hasn't come to play us in Adelaide since 2010!! It's about time they send them to us at Adelaide Oval and then we can come play the Saints at Etihad, hell it really should alternate year to year much as possible. Until weeks ago the same was the case with the Bulldogs where we'd travelled to them 4 years in a row without a visit from them.
The thing I took from the final vs Sydney last year was that although the crows started badly in that game and were outplayed in the first half, they pulled the score back to a 3 goal margin just prior to 3/4 time and then ran out of gas in the last as they had been down 2 players for a fair portion of the match in Talia and Lever which really affected their rotations. Assuming they don't get the bad luck to lose 2 players early in the match and with a more mature midfield group that now comprises a dominant Matt Crouch, a fully fit Brad Crouch, less reliance on Rory Sloane and a very promising Hugh Greenwood, I think they are better placed to match it inside with Sydney and the crows certainly have the pace on the outside to hurt them and the forward line to kick a winning score and a defence that has the personel to hold the sydney forwards. The coaches have also learnt to adapt and change tactics better than earlier this year and last year. I guess we will see in a few weeks time how it all plays out, but I am more confident now than last year
Richmond v North in H&A
That is dreadful, the interstate teams get a dream run with 12 games at home per year while Caro complains the Tigers have to travel to Geelong next week....
I actually reckon 2Bloody hell. How many days before the GF would you have to line up to get a seat in the MCC members?
You'd think so. You're a better outfit this year. I think if Sloane gets tagged it doesn't help you, but other players looked to have lifted a bit.
