Port doing Port things.
shitting the bed.

If only we had of turned the campaigners over as well.

 

[craig]

Yep. Had a chuckle.

Only Port or Collingwood would get that goal......seriously Tin Arses and of course it was Gray as well.

Yep. Also lost a game they believed they would win.

Went close and we’ll roll them later in the year when we get them here.

Hawthorn is the perfect example why you don't trade out high picks to try to remain in contention.

He pushed his luck after 2015, to go after Mitchell, Wingard and Omeara.
He is paying for it now.

Port are shiit.
Pity they get a easy draw without one they would be bottom 6

 

[momentai]

I know that but doubt he is a very committed supporter; seems to have a stronger affiliation to University Blues if you read his bio on Wikipedia. Nowhere near as "involved" with the Aints as SHocking is with Geesook. Whatever, he cannot appear to be partisan, whereas SHocking thinks no-one notices or he can just bluff his way through and fool everyone with a compliant and intimidated media.

But I'm talking about how Gil is the AFL overseer. Nothing significant is happening without his knowledge. SHocking is his agent.

At least one too many conspiracy there for my book.

Conca quietly dropped for today's game.

Edit: He's the sub. Still dropped.

The throwing/incorrect disposal in the Essendon v Freo game is terrible.

 

[CarnTheTiges]

The throwing/incorrect disposal in the Essendon v Freo game is terrible.

It’s entertaining, though. Often happens when 2 evenly matched sides play. Neither of these teams will make the 8 and will routinely lose to the sides that will.

Yes I suspect his time in the AFL is coming to an end. Will probably spend most of next year playing for Peel Thunder.

what's the issue do you think? When he was good, he was very good.

 

[Althom]

Not consistent enough would be my take on it.

 

[mexican_radio]

so, we remain in the 8 right?

 

[CarnTheTiges]

so, we remain in the 8 right?

Yep. Probably would have, unless Freo won by a lot.

So all the facebook trolls have to put "tigers in their natural habitat" wisecracks away for another week

“Natural habitat”? Do they mean being Premiers? Why would they want that?.....

For all the plaudits Longmuir and Freo get they are really not to far removed from Gold Coast

And Carlton. They’re sides forever doomed to be average.

They play very safe but when they do try to attack, they can get opened up the other way.
