2019 Non-Crows AFL Chat #3 - the off-season

[Sanders]

Really, who are this scientists - perhaps wait and see.

Yes, CO2 is required for plants but it isn’t that simplistic.

Come the middle of this century, those still living (and I’ll guarantee most of this 500 will be dead and buried) will b3 saying what the fu** were they thinking.

Climate deniers belong with the flat earthers.

Who said the 500 were climate deniers?

Maybe actually read the letters more carefully

How will that demolition affect GWS mentally? Hopefully they don't crash and burn like Port and us did after big GF losses.

It'll be interesting.

They're a young group still, so they know they've got plenty of time to climb the mountain again but they can't allow it to fester like we clearly did, and Port more so.

Like West Coast and Sydney, GWS are a strong, well run club. They'll be back

I'm still iffy on how they're coached, but they have insane talent.

[hey shorty]

Yeah that happened in 17

I was very lucky at the 17 GF that I was in a standing room bay with an exit immediately behind us - so we were halfway to the tram before the first scream of 'YELLOW AND BLACK'. I heard many a horror story of our supporters being accosted and abused leaving the ground that day, and the cheer squad pretty much needed a security escort to leave the ground safely that day.

I shudder to think of the horrors the GWS cheer squad would've endured leaving the ground today - especially as today's match was much more one sided (in terms of margin and crowd ratio) than 2017.

There's partying the night away, and then there's the antics happening on Swan St at the moment.

 

[GROTTO]

Need to put the the Tigers GF win in perspective.

GWS played their last 11 games at the G over 4 years, 2016-2019

Tigers player their last 11 games at the G since May of this year and played their last 9/10 games at home at the G.

I was close to the cheer squad and helped move a few things at the end of the match and didn't see any of that.
I also went for a long walk afterwards around Melbourne and received no abuse at all.

Then went home on the bus with no one mentioning stories of abuse just seriously depressed Crows fans.

TBH I seriously wonder if us as a supporter base would have been more accepting of the Crows performance in the '17 GF over time if our Club wasnt such a basketcase and screw the team over in the preseason and months that followed.

Failing is one thing, but to have been ridiculed, humiliated and made a laughing stock since the GF final probably was the fatal blow for our team and our supporters morale.

They should have a camp

****ing love Grand Final day. Brings back great memories of getting stupid drunk and smoked, then watching the entire first season of Ozark with the girlfriend without a word spoken between us for 24 hours. Can't wait for season 3. Any other viewers on the forum? Jason Bateman is a seriously underrated actor.

We was in the same situation, a exit right behind us left with a couple minutes to go, did see idiot tiger supporters trying to start shit with crows supporters, lucky we numbered in the hundreds, on the walk along the Yarra, pretty sure they weren't at the game, just wanted to cause trouble

Haven't seen Ozark but Arrested Development is more than enough for me to have time for Jason Bateman.

Ozark is good, it takes time to settle into a decent show.
