The Tin Foil Hat Thread

[Rory Walkerfield]

Friends - a safe place to share your tin foil hat theories without fear of ridicule or reprisal (ok, maybe not).

So come on everyone, let's share our wild arse conspiracy theories that have no foundation apart from in our own feeble twisted little minds.

I'll go first:

I reckon Campo pushed for Thommo to play last night simply so Mackay wouldn't be our worst player and would therefore stay in the side another week.

Nah I reckon something slightly different happened.

Campo will have been pushing for Thommo to come back for weeks. Pyke will have been arguing with him about how he's cooked. After weeks of being berated by Campo, Pyke will have caved by saying "you're wrong, let's see how Thommo goes tomorrow". So Pyke selected Thommo knowing he would fail to end the argument about him, move forward after being proven right, and regain ultimate control.

At least that's what I hope

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

I think the quality of our performances this season have been inversely proportional to the sensibleness of Rory Atkins' hair

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

My type of thread btw!

I think the reason Wigg has been used as an inside midfielder exclusively at SANFL level the last couple of years is so that we had fewer options competing for spots with Mackay and van Berlo

 

[Crowstar]

I think the reason why Matty Clarke is still the ruck coach is cos Trent Ormond Allen is unavailable

Wrong thread, buddy. This belongs in the "Proven facts thread"

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

Clearly haven't been tagging Selwood or Danger so we can surprise them with a hard tag in the finals

 

[Golumless]

I think the quality of our performances this season have been inversely proportional to the sensibleness of Rory Atkins' hair

Also proportional to hamstring injuries.

 

[WeeBlake]

Charlie is down on form because he has signed with Nth Q Cowboys for next year

 

[John Who]

I think the quality of our performances this season have been inversely proportional to the sensibleness of Rory Atkins' hair

This theory can be disprove by the fact we won the game when he had first shown us his goldielocks! (Round 5 vs Suns)

Tex will get weeks for his push because the AFL hates us and are corrupt and are really the VFL in disguise and Rucci/Beveridge will be all over it

If that is what Pyke needs to do to stamp his authority that's a pretty pathetic showing by him as a leader. He should have simply said to Campo "I don't want to hear the name Thompson at match selection, am I clear?"

The way I see it, it's something along the lines of: "Ok Campo I'll make you a deal.. we'll bring Thommo into the side and if he performs he'll keep getting games... but if he doesn't you hand me your resignation, effective from the end of the season"

Sounds horribly like the truth to me

its too early in the season. Rd 23 - then he would definitely get weeks. Or if he gets away with it the AFL will infect him with Parvo virus.

[ams4crows]

Campo secretly has been trying to sabotage this team for over 6 years!

And Taylor Swift is gay.

 

[Interloperer]

Josh Jenkins was out for so long because his "minor rib injury" was actually reinjured multiple times due to mismanagement by the club.

(Including the possibility that the injury against Hawthorn was not the first in the sequence.)

 

[rocket18]

The SMA increase our attendance figures and reduce the Powahs cos you know everyone is out to get them.

 

[I Lost My Keays]

We lost against North and Melbourne because we didn't put Hartigan and Talia in the midfield and Betts in the ruck........

The Hawthorn player was not the cause of the original injury. He only re-hurt a broken rib given by David Mackay in the pre-game warm up

Hard campaigner is our David

You wish

 

[Cap]

That our coaches are actually highly regarded in the industry.

 

[Damp Squarie]

That Pike has been biding his time with Doedee waiting for the Showdown before the unleash.

 

[Crow Envy]

That we can only win if we play senior players no matter their form.

 

[Captain Morgan]

This has probably appeared here before, but if not, prepare to Poo your pants:

Perhaps the ultimate conspiracy?
