Still giving us nothing...'cept Cups and Medals

Footy media all waiting for us to lose this game. Watch the huge questions to start arising if we do lose. We can't win outside Vic etc...

It never stops with Collingwood.
Again on sen1116, 'Rotten luck they have injuries'. When don't they have been injuries? Half of them get injured pulling up their socks

could it be that we recruit players with the right fitness profile and they don't? so many players on our list are athletic machines that can play a bit of footy.

this is one reason why I wanna win this week, as this bandwagon will start. funny thing is that we don't really need to win outside of VIC :hihi

Unless we become Glenelg or Claremont, the Grand final will be at the MCG.
West coast were *smile* house against Geelong and Sydney, they have built confidence over the last month.
If this game was at Subi I would be a lot more confident
 
interesting on Macquarie Sports Radio this morning they were suggesting we rest players this week due to the hard surface in Perth and to keep us fresh for later weeks. But if we do this and lose, apparently we still haven't beaten anyone.
 
Good chance we can win the Premiership this year without beating anyone.
 
We still have to play last years finalists Essendon twice, hopefully then people will get off our backs!

Hilarious assessment at Fox Footy's report card page.

North scores an A. Heart, endeavour, ability, blah, blah, blah.

So the team that won surely must have scored an A+?

Nope, just a B+ for the underperforming Tigers.

I agree with that, I don't think we have really hit our straps yet. North on the other hand are squeezing every drop from their list.

And, at the start of the season, this year's apparent 2018 premier.
 
I must admit i am enjoying nearly every article and panel show discussion dropping in phrases such "like Richmond have done" or "like Richmond are doing" or other such similarly worded references.

same. I reckon we're getting a decent run in the media.

I even heard Lloydy utter the phrase "Essendon need to become a good club like Richmond are"

Lloydy!!!!

Lloydy!!!!

He is smart enough to be the next coach of Essendon. Easily.

Don't get too carried away with Lloyds comments; he prefaced them by saying we were a basket case and laughing stock for 30 years.
 
It would be so typical of that *smile* club to be so dumb as to go and appoint the next saviour Matthew Lloyd.

Pretty sure it's been about 13 or 14 years since Essendrugs last won a final. The way they're travelling at the moment it won't be long before they've been a basket case for 30 years.

Sheedy is the only Essendon coach to win a final in 50 years. Essendon should fans should bow and hail the Mighty Tigers every time they drive along Punt Road.
