Rd 19!!

 Hey Andy how good were Hawthorn back in the day!!

 

That last thread was getting long winded so lets fire up a newy,

 

Rightyo on Friday night could be game of the round, i'm on the swans atm but that could change half a dozen times by bounce down.

Rich over pies

Geel over Brissy but thats the one that could suprise 

GWS

GC

Adel

Then to finish the round i reckon the 3 away teams will prevail

WC

Port

Hawks in a nail biter ( thats nail not pillow jack, dont get yourself a little stiffy ) by about 75 points over the fearsome purple headed custard chuckers.....

Is he an Eagle?

 

They seem to be playing a lot of first year players this year, that young Vardy fella will be good when his bones stop growing by Jingos...

 

Is Jetta Rioli playing do you know?

 

I'm thinking the Roos might get up in a pillow biter against your mob Jacky boy....

 

Rumour has it Gaff and Lycette have flown the coup, they were seen at the airport standing next to Kneel Balm, apparently Mitts isn't happy his new family arent all staying at his house to help him count cashola...

Coming second and making the third placed Colliwobbles actually get on a plane would be optimal.

P Cripps ( that's Patrick Jack ) 3 votes, a tackle they'll look at but he'll be fine.  I'd obviously like to see mitchell win brownlow but i do have a man crush on Patrick Cripps ( especially when you vc him in Supercoach and he scores 348!!! )

Geelong Teetering ( is that the same as tittering? ), hopefully They loose well...

As for Essenscum, I so hope we take a giant dump on their finals chances. Going to be tough though, they are a quick side and that usually troubles the Hawks. Then there's Sydney, Cats etc coming up. Hot damn!

I have had the old man over

Mon, 2018-07-30 12:01

I have had the old man over from queensland and he wanted to go watch the footy at optus stadium,so I got a couple of tickets to the freo game in the sports lounge. Firstly, what an awesome stadium. Secondly, Freo are unwatchable, boring, mistake ridden, lack confidence. Thank god for nathan wilson, he provided something ! Ross Lyon and the whole coaching panel need to be sacked, the game plan of continually bombing it long with no target, no spread and carry ( i hope they watch on playback how good hawthorn are ), joel hamling playing forward, what a *ucken shambles.
Even the old man having never watched an AFL game says "gee that freo are pretty bad", god bless him as he is 82.
God help any poor bastard who owns a season ticket.
Im a freo fan, but this is *ucken testing me !!!
Until Ross Lyon is sacked im finished watching this train wreck.
Anyway, that's my soap box stand.

 At least you're honest and see it for what it is. I'd be ropeable that a supposed professional football club fronts up and dishes out garbage like that time after time if I was a supporter. From what I see even Carlton as woeful as they are are showing some green shoots of talent. I need to slap myself for tipping them on the weekend thinking they might show some balls. I'm also sick of hearing that deadpan arrogant coach every week explain their insipidness. 

The sad thing is is that there is some good young talent in that side that's just going to waste with the current management and coaching staff.

I love it when Rolf goes into that high pitched voice like he's offering something profound yet it's the same droll dribble he's been offering up

 Dockers fans deserve some

Mon, 2018-07-30 18:23

 Dockers fans deserve some sort of medal for showing up to watch what's been dished up to them lately. From three goals away from a GF win to complete garbage. Gotta be dispiriting.

Definitely great talent

Definitely great talent Seakem - but poorly taught. I now realise the post match comments and tone of Ross Lyon that indicates a poor performance - It's the same tone we hear most weeks of an arrogant coach, not to mention the trouble he has found himself in relating to a young girl and a christmas party. I truly believe he is out of his depth, no matter who is around him. Round 1 this year into a rebuild, what does he do ? - he play's all the old guys, it's the weight of public outcry that get's this guy to change not his willingness to adapt to a new way of playing.
Watching from such a good position at the game allowed me to watch the players off the ball.
Watching Hawthorn players off the ball, wow, chalk and bloody cheese, they have their shit together and they know what each other are doing.
Tom Mitchell kicked ass because of work rate and he never gave up, i have alot of respect for that guy, but he also had help with Bailey being pushed out of the contest to allow Tom a free run. It happened time and again, not one freo player tried to negate the blocker.
At one stage I looked up and Joel Hamling is in the forward line - ++ck me !
Ross Lyon has to go, no if's, no but's, no replumb, rewire, rejig and any other acronym with jig I can think of.

 That's pretty well it in an AFL side, work rate and intensity.
