Round 8: the stuck in the Burnley tunnel games.

Man seriously you could argue they cost GC the win. Two clear frees not paid with 30 sec to go.

I like your optimism, but last week was a pretty dire game, not helped by the dire stadium it was in.

DS
Yes, it wasn't great last week, but both side had 53 inside 50's, and we won the clearances, it was our forward entries that let us down.

Remember Petty having a sook against the Lions, he seems a bit of a mouthy *smile*, I remember him giving plenty of lip in our game. He's giving Casboult plenty too.
Pretty sure Dave Astbury gave him clip and a few words, a couple of seasons back.
Cost Dave a couple of grand from memory.
 
Sack Stuey Dew. :mhihi

Ahhh Boringbourne. Just give them all things on a silver platter.
 
How did Van Carey go this week? Still the best key forward prospect in 20 years?
 
Could be because that is Carlton’s HG. They only get a few at the mcg so why would they waste it (financially) on an interstate team.

Probably I am mostly still peed off re last week with us having play GCS at the Dump; no HG benefit to us at all really, and no negatives for them in terms of 'Southern' conditions/weather, whereas all other sides have to cop their environmental advantages no matter what, at THEIR HGs. But I've already posted elsewhere that we have to suck it up - it is what it us since the AFL endorses and owns Marvel - and just to rediscover how to play there.

I know it is several Melbourne teams HG; they and Cartoon can suck that up. But, in the long run, it may remain as a distinct disadvantage to the Qld teams if they have little experience playing at the MCG in harsh, open-air conditions if they get to finals and cop that.

For us, it's a neutral game almost; no benefit. Just to them.

Kingsley is going to blow a ‘head gasket’ the way he is going.

It looks like he has no one in the coaches box near him???

Camera always panning on him.

He may not last long in this caper the way he has been going thus far.

His demeanour would be rubbing off on his players, you would think..?

Looks too nervous. Might start copping some old Pricky gifs if he isn't careful.

Might be in trouble but when I was listening to the game the commentary didn’t ‘push the agenda’ of being ‘in trouble’.

Who knows with the MRO.
Yeah it has nothing to do with the MRO

It's completely dependent on media agenda
