GAME DAY !!!! Premiers v Pensioners

[Streak]

Disagree. Maybe 2019 although we were 5-3 after 8. (6-3 after 9). Other years we didn't have such large losing margins. Last year largest loss was 32 points. We've already had 3 bigger losses this year. I think this is the last year of our premiership window and it's not looking promising atm.

I am not saying you are wrong. I just think on the evidence it is to early to call. I don't like what I saw tonight, or in the Melbourne game, but it is what it is.

Last year the quarters were much shorter and scoring was down in general so you need to take that in to account. We were 1-1-2 after 4 last year, and copped two bad losses to the Hawks and Saints in that. We were then 4-1-3 before we turned it up a bit.

In 2019 we were 7-6 after 13 and copped some real drubbings in that lot.

We are 1-4 against teams who are any good so far in 2021. Happy to have my worries eased by stats that show this is the template deployed in flag years.

I can't believe how quickly people turn

Fair enough. I can't believe how many have ignored the signs.

Well I can actually, with the media rollercoaster reassuring us every second week.

The worst part of this is Joey Montagna thinking he's a footballing genius.

Isn't that why he commentates the AFLW ? (and even that's above his head to be honest)

Joey was struggling for a while because his insight and feel for the game had him making wrong predictions every week. Faced with losing his media gig, he turned to David King and asked him how King managed to turn his career around from being a joke, to now being everywhere in the media. "Champion Data" Kingy replied. And that's why Joey is now a Champion Data "expert"

SHAI !!!!!!! just added 100k to his contract

He's been threatening to do that for weeks.

Hawkins is nothing more than a wrestler.

We made Hawkins look like Hulk Hogan in his prime

We made Hawkins look like Hulk Hogan in his prime

We made Cameron look like Captain America. He had an absolute field day out there tonight. Right from the start.

Hawkins goals were all in junk time - nothing to worry about Hulk Hogan

 

[mad_tiggy911]

Did we swap 1st round picks with Geelol?

 

[22nd Man]

Inexcusable. Don't know how Dimma tolerates these simple errors he keeps making.

He has played in three premierships that's all that matters now

 

[MD Jazz]

Nar, just watched it again, Pickett handballs, it hits a hand and spills to Geelong guy who is tackled immediately and ball spills out as he is going down. No prior, play on. Absolute correct decision without question.



You've lost me with the depth of your argument.


I love you Columbo.



They throw it, we throw it, everyone throws it.

Good luck spotting them with the naked eye.

I was at the game and you see them easily. There has to be an instruction not to bother paying them.
That’s a pissweak dissection of it by you though.

Think he gave a couple off earlier.

Swapped our last year’s first for their this year’s first

 

[Ridley]

He kicked one at right angles straight out of bounds.

Geez that was horrendous. It basically went in the opposite direction to where he wanted to kick it. He needs to be dropped. He is offering us less than nothing at the moment. He is so badly out of touch it’s unfathomable.

Don't think we've lost to too many sides twice in a season for a while

 

[jackfrost]

St Kilda smashed us in one of our Premiership years.

Rd 15 2017, 84 pts down AT THE HALF ...... will never forget it ! 7 weeks later beat them by 7 goals and after 11 weeks won our first Premiership in 37 years.

Strange game this Aussie Rules, stay the course, only early yet.

That's nothing. We made Scott look like a coach!

Agree unfortunately needs to spend some time in the reserves.

 

[22nd Man]

Have said it many times on here.
Why do we so often give up a score in the last minute or two?
Hard to understand why we are not further in front seeing we have really dominated them.
All the points have not helped though.

I thought we were the time on specialists?

 

[Redford]

Mitch Duncan. Plays well against us almost every time.
