Round 2: The garlic Uber ride games.

[Sintiger]

Wouldn't you think footy 'fans' would actually like the game? This place has become 90% negative viewpoints.

Most of the posts in the forum are not about the “game” they are about being a Tiger supporter.
Of course people posting here love footy but most of all they are supporters of a team.
It’s not meant to be logical. Haven’t you sat in the crowd in the outer at a game ?

*smile* me, has anyone on this forum ever had a positive thought about anything?

I genuinely wonder why so many people follow a game they seem to hate so much.

I'm positive the AFL is a corrupt, incompetent, boys' club of overpaid idiots ruining the game we love?

you're on the 'other games' thread .. what do you expect? .. praise?

as far as commentators go ... last night when they were trying to fill airtime with lights out
was the greatest search for a brain cell I've ever witnessed ..

Although the irony of posters who make 20 consecutive posts bagging everything, then call Chris Scott 'salty' is a balancing bit of amusement.

Have to pay that one!

One side should revert to standard a bit in this game at the G today. Expect it might be Port Bogelaide. No certainties, but Bumwood win again.

Here's a positive. PRE has been terrific to read the last 2 weeks? Can't quite pin why.

Sort of like a soggy biscuit contest of hate?

Commentators don't know the rules as usual, no prior means you have to make an attempt to dispose of the ball, you can't just play dead.

 

[The Big Richo]

Big Charlie looks in ripping nick.

 

[tigertim]

Good to see the umps pay the tackler when the tacklee isn’t making a genuine attempt to dispose.

Worst thing about this game is that the hype for whoever wins will be unbearable

 

[Little Ziggyadee]

Collingwood have kicked 6
4 direct from free kicks.
Holding the ball against Port has been unbelievable

 

[wayne]

9-4 free kicks Pies way, feels like more

 

[Little Ziggyadee]

Another free kick to Dacios
GOAL

 

[The Big Richo]

When I watch games like this it reinforces for me how wrong it is that the stand rule has killed our game style.

All of the elements are there, quick transition, dirty, forced ball forward, intensity of pressure and unrelenting commitment to a system.

That game style is still available, you just have to have the intensity to action it.

I wish we got these free kicks

 

[wayne]

Dropping the knees/high free kick is getting rewarded a lot so far this season

 

[wayne]

Looking like a masterstroke giving Grundy the flick

 

[Carter]

Wouldn’t it be great to stop Collingwood in their tracks next week.

I’m generally a McRae fan but I’m a bit over him at the minute

This is the second power outage in 24 hours.
