Footy to Return

Better than nothing. Despite being a grumpy old bastard I'll still watch it. What else is there to do?
The biggest winners so far are no doubt Brisbane...
Get to probably pulverize Gold Coast R2
Probably don't travel interstate first 5 weeks
Will then play in no particular order WC, AC, Freo, PA meaning they. .....
Won't go to WA at all
Won't go to SA at all
Will then get at least 2 Vic and/or NSW teams on consecutive weekends @home x 3 throughout the season
Will play additional games at the G instead of 2 originally fixtured
Will still have Chris Fagan telling them they won every stat..... except the most important one!

we could play 17 games and 3 finals all at Kardinia park and still win the flag.
we are twice as good as second best (well for the statisticians out there, we are 4.57 times as good as 2nd best)
and the gap will become bigger under adversity.

Riding past the beach front hotel (and a tigers member having a jog) in Nightcliff this afternoon- I t is not only open but there looks to be no social distancing going on at all. Send them all to Darwin

At the end of the day our reserves would beat Brisbane.
In a real season, where they would get a 'top6' draw they would struggle to make the 8.
Dont rate them.
So does anyone know what happens if one player does test positive - does their team need to sit out till they have all been tested - and what about the team they just played.
I guess the show could just stop there.

For Brisbane, having Fagan as coach XXXXX
For RFC, Brisbane having Fagan as coach
I for one am ecstatic that footy is back and feel sorry for the people that wallow in the fact that it won't be the same, better than nothing, I will revel in watching the somewhat compromised training but won't report on PRE, too much negativity here for mine.
Whoever is professional and motivated enough will be legit premiers IMO

I reckon a heaving TIO, hopefully with a significant proportion of black fellas in black and yellow, would be really cool
Its strange isnt it?
I cant wait. Having been deprived, I couldn't really give a *smile* if they played 2 x 5 minute halves in spacesuits and Brad Scott had to sit in my lounge room.
same. Id love to hear who dry retches and who follows through on every COVID tonsil swab.
I reckon you could shove a lump of 4by2 down Broadys throat and his eyes wouldn't even water.
Totally agree caesar
As of right now - if we were to end up winning the flag this season - I'll take it as 100% legit and enjoy it for the rest of my days
If we don't - I'll firstly hope it's not C'wood, G'long, Haw etc etc etc ... but will simply have to grit my teeth and accept that some pack of bastards (hopefully that I'll never run into) will be able to claim bagging rights.
But geez I *smile* hope like hell it's us.

Not as tainted as the war flags. Yet they still count towards their clubs' totals.
(Was there one year where only four clubs competed? In any case teams were compromised with players away on duty.)

Please reconsider, Caesar. Your reports would be more valued than ever.
You might be right, but lets talk about the modern era.
Have a look at where we have come from the years of 2009-2010 we were compared to University.
We have had everything thrown at us from Rule changes, oppostion to the ground we play home games on and now this wicked virus.
Dominance of this game doesn't last long.
This year we were close to unstoppable and we might still be, but having a interrupted and shorten season i don't think will suit us.
Especially now that Hocking will rejig the fixture to bend us over.
In 2 minds about footy with no crowds, just hope they can get some sort of crowd to games by maybe August, who knows.
I think it will be a bit empty but they've never actually cancelled a season before, we'll have to see how it goes I suppose.
As for whoever wins the flag. Us, or someone else, there will be lots of comments along the lines of not a real flag, compromised etc.
But if we win the flag, our flag tally will be +1 and everyone else can go get stuffed.
