Oppo Camp Non-Essendon Football Thread XVII

[eth-dog]

was that because he wasn't rated or was it because it was just assumed that the pies can/would take him earlier if someone else wanted to take him

If he was rated in the first round he wouldn't have gone 35 picks after the first round finished.

I did a quick google and seems he was rated around the early 3rd round (mid 30s).

This year that's almost a first rounder!

 

[Pweter]

I'll let you off the hook this once, but you really need to improve in this area ok?

It is Reid!

Channel 9 reported that he was grabbing his hamstring and that he was ushered away with the trainers. The severity or even a comfirmation of him doing his hammy is yet to be disclosed though. The general concencus among West Coast fans is that he was just pulling out his G string.

Must've given himself an almighty wedgie to need it addressed by the trainers.

The cynic in me senses he’s escaping a looming scandal

Gil

evidently, i think i dislike him more than BT/JB who both add nothing to the broadcasts that they're on, but he's so much worse i find

 

[ghostdog]

Guess who.

Is that Reid? Surely not.

 

[ghostdog]

Like all bureaucracies the AFLs answer to any issue is more bureaucracy.

Got a compromised draft? The solution is to compromise it more.

Got a compromised fixture? Magic Round!

How about this; no father son rules, no academy rules, no compensation for free agency, unlimited future pick trading, no soft cap, no handouts.

I'm fine with no father-son rule, after Koby Bewick's draft is done.

 

[ant555]

Is that Reid? Surely not.

Hamstring awareness from all reports. Went off as soon as he felt tightness. Too bad Gumby was not aware of hamstring tightness.

I wish the fox commentators would disappear.

Fox commentators are pretty good by and large IMO.

Dwayne can go through

It’s the anti Essendon sentiment that wears a bit thin for me after a while.

Gerard Healy?

Gerard Healy?

Him too

 

[Nifft]

Him too

David King?

David King?

Eh. Don't love or hate him.

 

[Chief Hopper]

Yeah I picked that too.
It's as if most of them couldn't say a nice thing about Essendon without giving a backhander soon after.

 

[ant555]

Sack them all.

 

[crackers65]

Sack them all.

Gee ant my first thought was that’s a bit harsh, but after two seconds of deliberation, your right.

 

[Schnitzengruben]

Eh. Don't love or hate him.

I like him on pre or post game shows, like First Crack. Don't really like him during the games.

****ing funny news report on the radio this morning

1. Police are in a pay dispute with the state government and will be flashing us for speed cameras
2. Port Adelaide are withdrawing from the SANFL after 150 years and applying to join the VFL instead #VICBIAS

I checked, it’s the 4th of December… not April Fools.
