Oppo Camp Non-Eagles Discussion

[Farang83150]

Essendon’s delivery inside F50 is as bad as ours. Possibly worse

Nailed it!

 

[KERRPOW]

Hate this holding the ball interpretation.

Better off not winning the ball

 

[WCErevival]

I can't tell if it's high pressure making the skills bad or the teams are just bad

 

[woosha24]

Would like to see Fail-o choke here, but gee whiz are Essendon benefiting from the "noise of affirmation" today or what?

 

[Eastern Rangers]

Later. Genuine comedy routine.

 

[Rowan18]

Haven't WCE done the once every decade thing too? Collingwood also.

Yes - if you go off when AFL started. Pies did 1990, 2010 and 2023.

Edit: lol - I forgot the 2000s. So no they haven't.

 

[woosha24]

Gotta admire the purps D50 pressure. Absolutely manic.

 

[Eastern Rangers]

Hardly.

 

[Farang83150]

Stringers good and bad games are SO extreme.

 

[Farang83150]

Love that they cut to scott seething regularly

 

[woosha24]

Hardly.

Nah they've had some soft-arse frees today. Including whatever the eff that "dangerous tackle" run-down was.

No way we get these calls at home.

 

[Mr Eagle]

Don't mind 9.1 at all. Very efficient.

 

[Forward Press]

Freo deserve to be in front.

And yes, would rather they don't win the flag obviously but Essendon can gagf. So, go Freo.

Now, please pass me the mouthwash.

 

[JADED]

Bleat all you want but they've won a flag every decade since the AFL began.
It's got FA to do with "impression", it's just a fact.

Yep, no one said every 10 years, the stat is at least a flag per calendar decade.

Probably curtains to their finals chances with that loss today. Win, and I had them finishing 7th.

took Essendon for a ride to end the half.

Freo winning means less Vic sides at the pointy end of the ladder so I'm all on the Freo train until finals (against non Vic sides) at least.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Anyone who hates Freo more than they love the concept of an entirely non-Vic top five is a traitor.

Freo are like a shadow. They harmlessly follow you around and, unless you’re really going out of your way to, nobody really notices or talks about them.

Essendon are like an unseasonable heat. Whenever they’re remotely near every dumb campaigner on TV has to have their say about it, and they make decent days utterly unbearable.

You’d have to be sick in the head to not want the full cohort of Big Vics to miss finals. A Freo win here or there is a piss easy price to pay for that.

 

[ReidBetweenTheLines]

Might be on my own but would rather Dockers win than Essendon.

 

[Farang83150]

I'm a traitor then, I hate freo way more than any vic team.
Hope they never have any success....fk'm

 

[Keys]

Fox footy dropping a non-vic player into a potential suspension

Colour me surprised

Normally I would agree, but the comps too tight this year. Freo finish top 4 and they could win it all.

I don't want to live in a world where Freo achieves success. At least being in the West shelters us somewhat from the off-season Vic wank if one of them wins it.

I'll take a decade of Collingwood/ Richmond/ Essendon/ Hawthorn/ etc premierships over a single filthy purple flag.

 

[ioppolo]

I actively supported Freo in the 2013 grand final too. My loathing of Vic teams trumps that of Freo's first ever flag.

I just watched for 5 minutes and although Ess losing is a humorous consolation it made me sick.

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

Always hate the local rival the most. Always.

If I moved to Melbourne I'd be surrounded by Collingwood/Essendon/Carlton/Richmond fans, so I'd probably change my tune, but I don't have to deal with those kents every day.

 

[JoshWoodenSpoon]

Daniels was the catalyst I thought. Really gave them the drive out of CBAs they’d been missing

Awesome player, really hope his injury troubles are largely behind him.
