Game Day Showdown 51

[Windy Cindy]

Losing the 3rd tall killed us

Our s**t goal kicking killed us

Blokes unable to handle pressure..

Story of our players.. I hate hinkley as much as the next but * our players are weak as piss when the real pressure is added

 

[yepits2020]

Thank goodness we didn’t concede a late quarter goal for a change.

What was that again?

 

[Byrons Firen]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! WE'RE GONNA WIN THE SPOON BOYS AND GIRLS WOOOOOOOOOO

I must be on the crows board.

 

[Jojay]

Ken smiling on the boundary line... could you even imagine Jack or Fos doing something like that?

 

[Mikey13G]

I can't wait to see the Hinkley press conference! 0-3 now you no hoper!!!

 

[Mr39]

Embrace the tank train.

 

[Andre]

Boak was never kicking that
It wasnt his MO

Too many examples of him missing that clutch 40m out goal

Prelim 2014
Prelim 2020

I've said it many times, but those that were there in 2007 were so wrecked by that Grand final, that even if they say they want to reach another, subconsciously they don't, for fear of what could happen. When we aren't a threat Boak is great. He should remain playing, but you'll never be able to rely on him in a crunch game. I blame the club and their sweeping the 2007 GF under the rug for breaking all those players, more than the result itself. I fear sweeping last years prelim aside the same way is unsurprisingly having us head down the same path.

Eveyone who thinks that this game is going to see Hinkley sacked is kidding themselves. That game was absolutely full of excuses for the leadership.

Basically the worst result possible. Its not going to put more pressure on Ken, and those fu**stain from West Lakes will be insufferable.

Right on the money, as crap as kern and koch are they can't kick the ball for Boak and Wines.
Boak's miss in particular was beyond a choke, and he has done those pathetic shi*t kicks for goal at least twice before late in crucial games.

 

[AFC AFeederClub]

I wonder if rucci will ask the question he said he would if they lose? Such a gutless mole

 

[Handyandy]

I can't wait to see the Hinkley press conference! 0-3 now you no hoper!!!

yeah blame it on hinkley. boak cant kick a simple set shot. his s**t kicking has cost us alot for ages. but again. dont blame boak.

 

[Power Girl]

Bugga. This is like the inverse Wingard 5 goals of 2013 (last showdown at the swamp)

You are looking at it all wrong. We can get rid of Hinkley on the back of this. Smile, celebrate, hug your children

 

[_VXV]

Thank god lachie murphy is ok.

 

[Chizza12]

So on to the draft thread, what's our 1st priority, tall back or tall forward?

 

[240volt]

I can’t see Ken getting the sack this year.
We can’t afford the payout and definitely can’t afford a replacement unless one of our just as shy assistant coaches does it for peanuts.
Basically we are screwed for many years and it’s all the boards fault.

 

[Jonts]

Ken smiling on the boundary line... could you even imagine Jack or Fos doing something like that?

* Fos or Jack even Primus or Choco

 

[Duckimus Prime]

This was like the Shuey free.

Was Dawson even near the play?

No. Dawson shouldn’t of had the kick.
Even if the weak prick didn’t fake an injury.

He's the one who collected the ball after it got away from Murphy. It was very reasonable for him to take the kick after Murphy faked the injury to give the ball to a better kick.

 

[Peter Wallis]

I am not a big fan of Marshall but thought he was fantastic tonight. Kicked straight which he doesn't always do but was really impressed with his tackling and second efforts. Hopefully the penny has finally dropped with him because he does have talent.
He needs more of his team mates to go with him though.

Yeah, we should have gone on a camp.

 

[PAFC66]

It was a body shot. He fell over holding his neck.

He landed on his neck when he went down but was still high.

 

[MrPlow]

It’s bittersweet

I’m gutted. I hate losing. I love PAFC to death.

But we have to hit rock bottom to go forward.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

In all seriousness that was honestly embarrassing from Murphy.

Nah do what you need to win the game.

In a way I'm glad we got punished, what Mayes did was incredibly dumb as *. Even if it's not a free by the letter, it's dumb as * to even think of it. A free was the only way they'd be able to score.

 

[Sozabarus]

Thank god lachie murphy is ok.

Great gamesmanship, if only we had players with that kind of nouse.

 

[backtozero]

He landed on his neck when he went down but was still high.

No

 

[Jojay]

Holy s**t we've gone from home prelim to sheisenhousen in the blink of an eye

 

[Duck Farmer]

NO MORE REPLAYS OF THE FREE KICK.
INTERESTING

Swap the sides and Derwayne and Dunstall would've been calling for another Warren Commission.
