Cute. I couldn't give two stuffs about Collingwood. I prefer to look at the more successful teams like Geelong and Hawthorn in the hopes my team can achieve the ultimate. Those clubs I envy.
May happen. May not. But at least my standards a high. Unlike the imaginary "Silver medals" you lot love...
1 fluked flag in an 18-team competition.
Another in a 16-team competition that if only better rules were in place like extra time, would have seen saints with their 2nd premiership.
I mean sure, celebrate the glory. You'd be silly not to. But your team isn't the benchmark you like to think it is.
Williams and Saad? Let me know when you reach 2024.
"One Unknown" - Funny way of saying top 10 pick (and potential pick one fancy) in a superdraft. No mention of getting a 2nd back either. Talk about cherry-picking.
Smarter clubs are all about preparing for what lies ahead by going hard now...
Chances are one will finish top 10 when they are 1 of very few players to be fit and available for every game. Still 6th to 7th in the pecking order these last two years.
You do know there is an entire DFA and SSP period still yet to play out right? Not everything is a trade.
Three...
Ah... yes.
Everything has a start and an end.
That is how life works bub.
Extremely unlucky? Nah. Just not good enough. But sure, whatever feeds your delusion.
So strange that you nuffs only rate the players after they leave.
Chest-puffing about 2025 picks is laughable when there is always the following draft to trade back into it (not to mention the potential plans to allow clubs to trade two deafts ahead). And even if it did mean something, the last...
The sad thing is that is all you have to hang your hat on. That flukey flag.
Here is the reality dear. Only one team can win it every year. Most teams are going to have droughts. But eventually they'll come to an end and new ones come about.
Try all you like. But if you think I envy your mob...
Uh-huh! Sure! Go off Mr. Crystal Ball.
Got to give something to get something. That is how trading works.
Can't be labelling them 'best small forward' and 'good midfielder' when all you lot do is talk smack about them.
If they were what you claimed to be, your beloved filth would've (or at...
I think I'd rather a club with a good sense of balance. Thinking of both now and the future.
Addressing holes, easing that "salary cap bursting at the seams", investing in one of these 10 to 15 players as well as banking points for father sons.
Compared to...
An ageing list, who tries so hard...
Couldn't give a crap about the AFLW anymore. Lost respect for it
Nothing against the women nor is it to do with them. Glad they have their own league.
But the AFL have treated it like absolute crap with the endless shifting of the schedule. From forcing the women to exert their energy in the...
10th Anniversary of last flag = Wooden Spoon
20th Anniversary of last flag = Wooden Spoon
30th Anniversary of last flag = ...
Don't even think about it Carlton. Time to get serious this off-season 😠
They don't need to bottom out.
They have some potential in their hands. They are just not using it correctly.
We saw glimpses of it in the last two home and away games. The attention needs to be on further developing their games and looking less towards Williams, Fantasia, Acres, etc.
One bad night?
I also suggest you watch a few more of his games this year.
Why do you honestly think I bite my nails when he has the ball compared to others in the team like say Hewett or Cowan? There must be some reason for that.
Oh and for next year.
I really do hope we see less of players like Williams in the main side. Haynes as well is not the solution.
We are looking dead-set dry and unappealing with this same group.
Need to reinvigorate and inject this team with some more youth. I want to see Moir, Lord, Binns...
Ad-hominems. Wonderful classy response.
It would be more baffling to think otherwise.
Critical moments are few and are obsolete when the result is against us.
It is one thing to make a presence and win the ball... another to know how to dispose of it. Watch much of that game again and try...
The mistake was omitting Cincotta.
The mistake was TDK as sub.
The mistake was subbing Kennedy for TDK.
The mistake was brining in Cerra and Williams.
Then there's the players.
He may have created an iconic moment or two for us, but my goodness, Acres would just about have to be the worst...
If a number of players were to return, you would think one or two of the kids are certainly one of the first few making way (as much as I too don't like the idea).
OUT - Motlop, Carroll, Durdin, Young, Fantasia, Binns, Pittonet
IN - McKay, McGovern, Curnow, Boyd, Williams, TDK🤞🏻, Docherty...
And I have to admit it.
Ollie has definitely stepped it up the past few weeks after his very poor start to the season.
I just love his determination and ability to apply pressure and find the ball around play lately.
I noticed Binns now and then grabbing his hammy during the game as if it was tightening up.
Even with the weeks break, you can certainly consider him one to make way for someone returning from injury.
I'm sick of the "he isn't ready" crap.
Only international/project pick-ups can that be applied.
A ND pick? It's one thing to build muscle but it does NOT take 2 whole years for a draftee to learn a game plan.
Spare me the Lemmey isn't ready nonsense. I don't expect him to come in here over...
You can find them anywhere. Not hard to look.
The problem is the list management team make it seem hard.
They are wanting to perform miracles. Feel-good stories. Chase what seems to be a bargain or a steal.
Simple answer is, look for fit players. Little to no injury history. Develop them.
Pick...
And as for the others:
Marchbank, Cuningham and even Sam Durdin.
I've lost my patience.
They need to understand their bodies are simply NOT UP TO IT anymore. We can blame the S&C team all we like but that has already changed once or twice since both players first came on the list. The...
