Round 7: the 78 tramline junkie and urine games.

[tigersnake]

Brisbane's game plan is abysmal. They'll finish below us.

This is getting ugly Mr Peabody !

Has to go.

 

[zgod]

Bears are cooked

 

[BluesBloke]

Beating the Giants isn't for everyone, I guess.

 

[MD Jazz]

Way too fast GWS.

[RoarEmotion]

Well I have my second team for the year.

 

[craig]

Ol Fago's looking confused in the Presser.

 

[Tigers of Old]

Fagan starting to pine about the old days. Window closing..?

 

[leon]

Couldn’t care less about today’s game. Never have. Near zero interest. Unless I have a bet. Otherwise hope it’s a draw with 10 suspensions. Bumwood by 4 goals I suppose but whatevs.

Redford the seer!

 

[TonyJewell'sPiercing]

The Danger Scats have defeated top sides.
Like the Hawks, Roos and Crows.

Saw the final two minutes of Ess v Coll.
Umpires almost gifted Pies another fraudulent win.
How was Crisp not penalised for throwing the ball?

 

[leon]

Are you surprised by that ? It’s an annual right of false dawn passage the last 20 years.

Well, it is the Bummers Grand Final after all. Over 7400 days now since they won a REAL final.

Langford miss from 30 m

Yer, but Mihocek usually reliable too. Kicked 2 oobs (or was it one behind?), but along with Elliot's dropped mark, cacked their dacks.

 

[leon]

He sure did, should have won it for them twice. Why didn't he give the handball back to Crisp for the 1st one, before running round in circles and then giving it straight back to them, and then dropping the ball in the F50 when they only needed a point to win it.

Because he ain't no Iceman after all?

 

[leon]

Geez Red, wish you hadn't pointed out Luke Hodge's inability to use the letter G.

It's all I can hear.

Doing my head in. Really poor commentator.

Lately I've become really aware how poor some AFL commentators' voices are for AFL. Noticeably, Gawwy Lion and Browny on Fox/Kayo. Both really husky, hoarse, poor voices that get lost easily if the background crowd noise is loud. What bothers me re Hodge is it is just such a drone. Flat and monotonous with no intonation.

By contrast, Jack Riewoldt - dulcet tone, animation and intonation, even that inimitable touch of humour (always poking a bit of fun at something) in his voice - so much better to listen to.

Saw it too. It's part of the plan....

 

[leon]

Cadman may be playing the most ineffectual key forward game in history.

Yer, I haven't been able to catch a lot of GWS games in '24, but from what I've seen, he's still not showing much. But still, even good KPFs take years to 'mature' enough to impact IMO.

 

[leon]

Briggs is s gun.

He's a genuine hard man ruck, turning into a brute. But no surprise ... with Mummy his mentor!

 

[leon]

The old Codger has to be close to the boot.
They go after Beveridge why aren't they go After Him

The media finally are. M Lloyd has an article out saying Lions will not win a flag with him as coach. Revelatory!!

But, Zips, think how much poorer your life will be without "the old Codger' to heap it on!?
