Game Day The REAL FAKE Game Day Thread: Blueper Reel

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

I agree dogs105

Conserve water, electricity etc but threads are free.

The 21st year of Carlton's rebuild hasn't gone according to plan but they've copped a fair bit of media heat this week. Could see a reaction.

For us, historically coming off the bye we always win, except for the times that we've lost.

It all points to an intriguing late Sunday afternoon blockbuster.

Great thread.

 

[Scorpus]

This will be one of the worst games of the year

 

[craig crowing]

I ask is there such a thing as late Sunday afternoon blockbuster .
To me it is where the VFL oops the AFL put the interstate teams with poor old Fremantle who cops the most.
Anyway to the game surely Carlton will react and guess up to us to manufacture a winnable score relying again mainly on Tex.
Surely both Rowe and in particular McAdam need to have a good game as for all the crap they get on here think both Frampton and Himmelberg offer a lot more in most areas than Shane currently is.
Guess the only sure thing is the umpires will make it harder .

LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

A 25k cap on attendance is harsh

I'll feel very sorry for Fan 25,001 who gets turned away

We’re pretty even coming off the bye.

If you look at the win:loss combined of us and our opponents, is bang on 50:50.

Can’t get any tighter than that.

Yeah, that won't be an issue...

 

[FR0GGY]

Can’t wait till we get some good time slots again.

 

[footy4ever]

Can we win this please? - if only because I have a bet on.

That is all.

 

[cleanhands]

Too early for umpire complaining?

 

[Crow-eater]

Hold your horses



I have no idea who this bloke is, and he's the only one saying it.

It can't be a blockbuster when there is a crowd cap in any case.

The word came from huge premieres where people had to line up around the block for tickets, ie The Empire Strikes Back.

Totally misused today, I enjoyed the media even describing covid affected games with no crowd as blockbusters

 

[Crow-eater]

Tom Browne reckons we're fine.

Trust Tom Browne, or some rando on twitter? It's a tough call.

That can't be true. I doubt the Crows would be flying out for a 4pm game at 11.30am

75% of this thread will be ump bashing come game time. 15% Mackay bashing. 10% Miscellaneous.

Death and taxes

He's been doing it all day!!!

 

[Crow-eater]

It also sounds like we're taking a charter flight, and not a commercial VA flight?

 

[Crow-eater]

Okay, nope this is actually real





Turns out rando on Twitter may have been right, instead of Tom Browne. I am shocked to be sitting here.

 

[RoweyThePainter]

Okay, nope this is actually real

Finish season in hubs. Its all getting ridiculous

 

[FR0GGY]

Which umpire is complaining? Sack him!

 

[RoweyThePainter]

The inconsistent, incompetent one. I hate him.

Has it to do with the positive case in a NT mine where 900 workers have flown back home around the country?

Still got it
