Game Day 2024 Non-Swans Game Day

Wow. The bulldogs song ****ing sucks

 

[Swannie0307]

Let’s not forget the dogs had 6 of their very best out tonight, plus a couple of hammies during the game.

 

[zyzzbruh]

Seriously 5 home games in a row for the dogs... They released a vid of that bloke figuring out the fixture at AFL house like he was some sort of Einstein. How much is he getting paid for a computer to spit out an abomination of a fixture that then gets ticked off..

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Massive. Huge dent in their top 4 hopes.

I still maintain they’re one of our threats so it’s lovely to see them slip up.

So far our best on display has been far above what Collingwood has produced.

But i get the whole MCG thing terrible memories recently for the club.

Meanwhile some teams have literally been all over Australia

I understand your point but the word "song" was superfluous in that sentence.

 

[Kiama Chris]

Suns, Dockers and Tigers please. Well, the first two are a chance. Good close games.
Lots to cheer for!

David Swallow has played at the most venues (22) in AFL history.
Overall he has played 230 games.

Out of Scott Pendlebury's 394 games, 247 have been at the MCG.
He has played at a total of 11 venues.

Academies hey.

Probably explains his durability.

Still don't think Carlton winning went our way. We need to see some seperation by the top 4 so it's easier to guarantee a spot in it.

Would've been better having PA +4 and Carlton back to 28 points.

I know we just need to worry about ourselves but it's not impossible to have a run of results go against us. Would just put us back in the pack.

I get what you're saying, but I have faith that we'll continue winning so I'm not really concerned about teams bridging the gap, I'm pretty confident it won't happen. So I'm just enjoying watching other teams fall over each other while we continue winning.

In saying that. It's not beyond the realms of possibility to see another side finish off the rest of the season with only the one loss. So anything could happen. But I don't see two sides storming home to knock us into 3rd place or below.

Darcy

Get on him Beatson imagine all those bombs he will mark at the SCG.

Beats on said at the time of Darcy’s draft that in an open draft Darcy is the player he would choose, as quite unique.

on this

basically, if the suns win, and we win next week, it means out of our remaining 11 games, most teams would need to win 3 more then we do, and some even 4, to knock us out of the top 2.

highly unrealistic if you ask me

Problem is because it's so even it's not teams coming up we have to worry about, it's ourselves. A few losses puts us literally in the pack.

Everyone falling over each other only helps us in keeping top spot (if our form continues). But deep down I'd give up top spot for a guaranteed spot in the top 4. Some seperation would almost guarantee it even with a bad run.

Excellent at least he has a connection

I wonder how long Beatson will continue to be in charge of list management been here a bloody time iirc.

It seems that a succession plan is under way. Sydney style. No muss, no fuss.

 

[Ballarat Bob]

Tiges had a crack last week but don't have enough cattle to get up. Suns slightly favouring them only on their home form. Freo could do anything good bad or indifferent all in ten minutes of play but don't see them rolling Melbs.
Suns only realistic chance for me. Still think this is the year where Hardwick just smashed games into the youngsters and isn't that fussed about finals.

Yikes. Staggered Darcy hit Maynard with a blow from behind. This could have been the greatest courageous act in the Darcy family history.

I am sorry I savour every blow received by Maynard.

It’s all good. I called undefeated this year, I’ve seen nothing to worry me in the home and away. Minor premiership could be awarded in the next fortnight if results keep tracking our way. Top 2 is key as we wont leave fortress SCG until GF.

Our losses if any will come from rotation / experimentation in readiness for finals. Maybe some injury free footy easing in. All good.

 

[Millky95]

Just finished work and saw the results. Amazing for our ladder position

 

[Ticky009]

Dogs found their kicking boot it seems, was only a matter of time. If their list gets healthy they will be up there. Can easily see them going for it from the bottom part of the 8.

Dogs look second best in the comp right now.

It's a sad state of the game if this is the case.

Not sure.
Those of us who detest Maynard are currently feeling a little for the Darce.

Collingwood supporters bronx cheering a free...... while leading the count 17 to 11

Most fans are stupid these days I swear
