Game Day AFL Round 14 - Matchday Discussion Collingwood@Carlton(Gabba- 3:35PM)

[Kappa]

He has had over 25 twice and had 24 twice. Given how weak our midfield is today, I think it’s worth a flutter.

Which year did that happen?

It's worth a flutter if you're happy losing your money to the bookies.

First time I have looked this up. WTF

The expression "Blue Baggers" derives from the laundry product used in all Australian households during and after WW2, called "Reckitts Blue"; which came in a small white muslin bag; and was put in the Copper or Washing Machine to whiten whites and brighten colours..........and were called "BLUE BAGS"..

So they're named after laundry... how fierce

45 minutes to go. For some weird reason I'm somewhat excited about this... hope our boys are as amped to belt the Blues as some of us on here are! Carn the Pies

 

[spartan-magpie]

Might go for a bottle of Lark Wolf 2020 after the game.. fav at the moment.

Might have to give it a try. Good price too.

 

[magpie_marty]

Well zero chance of rain and nil chance of dew perfect conditions for a day game of afternoon football.
My expectations for the game are low.
We seem on paper to have selected a very tall side perhaps it will work.
Fingers crossed
Let's beat this scum team bye a point!

Anything that’s 9-1 is likely to be lost, mate. Money is the least of my problems, so I’m happy to have a “flutter”. I’ve never been one to bet to gradually accumulate... I bet for long odds that I think might happen to add interest to a game.

My nickname was Flash and my two best friends were Fab and Surf.
Took us years to work out we were all named after laundry detergents.

Pies by 30

Fair enough, maybe think twice before advertising gambling on a family site though ?

Also, there are "good" 9-1 bets and "bad" ones... just because it's 9-1 doesn't make it a bad bet. This Crisp 9-1 bet is a shocker though, objectively so. Scam from the bookies to take huge amounts of money from people.

 

[BringouttheGimp]

If we f lose this one gimpy, I'm breaking into a pathology clinic and railing a line of Covid19 positive saliva samples. I've had it!

If we lose re. Imma do the same.. and ****en gargle on it re.. **** it re. I've had it up to my eyeballs with this shit man.

 

[Ulahoopski]

Everything's going to click today. Pies by lotta.

Yeah keep that gambling shit out of here. We only wager pube eating on this board.

 

[Temploar]

This could be a win for the ages (if) we pull it off.

Good and bad is very subjective. I think it’s more likely to happen than 9-1, so I think it’s good. You don’t, you think it’s bad. As I said, he has done it twice already this year and has had 24 twice. Our midfield today would be one of the weakest fielded by any side this year. And my tip was Carlton by 5 goals anyway. We disagree, and that’s fine.

Re: the family forum, happy not to talk about betting if that’s a forum rule, but it’s rife on BF and it’s rife on game coverage. Anyway, let’s all move on... a minor reference has blown up into something big totally unnecessarily.

Think today will atleast confirm either way where we sit. Win somewhat convincingly and show we can hit this mystery “form” and play finals, or lose and confirm we likely don’t belong in the 8. A loss today should kickstart some serious list management decisions at the club.

 

[FireKrakouer]

Let's see some magic Grundy

 

[BringouttheGimp]

Just offloaded a gorilla on Big Mason Cox to provide the assist with an incidental deflection for the first sausage roll at 51.

Wish me luck.

A win will light a fire under us I feel, but a loss could be a real wake-up call. It might be silly to attribute such value to one game, but people (myself included) will. Failing to stand up in our biggest game so far this season would really be quite disappointing

 

[Harry O]

Sadly it looks like Phillips might be assigned the small forward job on Docherty

If we ****en lose this shit man.. I'm not only going to eat pubes.. imma get a bucket full of hair extensions with em. **** it man. I can't anymore.

 

[Maggie5]

I am remembering a time when before a game I went to games feeling positive about the outcome of a game.

Now it is just butterflies and a sick feeling in the stomach.

 

[BringouttheGimp]

If Big Mason Cox doesn't snag at least 1 sausage roll.. imma glue pubes on to my chest.. **** it re. I can't anymore.

 

[Magpiemack]

Team selection looks okay, given the injuries. Pleased Varcoe was dropped as he butchers the ball too much. How close are Langdon and Scharenburg?
