Game Day Around The Grounds - Rnds 0 - 5

[RPCB]

They could do with this guy:

Eddie McGuire flies to Baghdad to watch a young Iraqi play Aussie rules and is suitably impressed, and arranges for him to come over to Collingwood. He's signed to a one-year contract and the kid joins the team for the pre-season.

Two weeks later the Magpies are down by 6 goals to Carlton with only 10 minutes left. The coach gives the young Iraqi the nod and he goes in. The kid is a sensation - kicks 7 goals in 10 minutes and wins the game for the Magpies! The fans are thrilled, the players and coaches are delighted, and the media are in love with the new star. When the player comes off the ground, he phones his Mum to tell her about his first day of AFL.

'Hello Mum, guess what?' he says. 'I played for 10 minutes today, we were 6 goals down, but I kicked 7 goals and we won. Everybody loves me, the fans, the media...

'Wonderful,' says his Mum, 'Let me tell you about my day. Your father got shot in the street and robbed, your sister and I were ambushed and beaten, and your brother has joined a gang of looters, and all while you were having such great time.'

The young Iraqi is very upset. 'What can I say Mum, I'm so sorry.'

'Sorry? You're sorry?' says his Mum, 'It's your fault we moved to Collingwood in the first place!'

New board rule should be that you’re the only opposition that is allowed to post on here.

When I get home, I'll post the song I wrote after the 2017 grand final .

I’d be low-key disappointed if there’s no reference to the Nigel Smart fire walk and “The Power Stance.”. Crows have been a cult for decades.

For a bit of context, after the game, my son was running around the lounge room singing a remake of an old Christmas carol classic, and I thought to myself, "This is too good to pass up." So I added a couple of verses to go with it - this is what father and son came up with together:

We're at the MCG
On grand final day
It's Richmond v the Crows
It's Richmond all the way
I can't support the Crows
They are the enemy
There is only one result
That I'd like to see

Chorus:

Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to see
The Crows get blown away
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to see
The Crows get blown away

It's now late in the game
The Tiges have got it won
But for all us Crow haters
The fun has just begun
The Camries came here proud
They thought they had it made
But they forgot that flags aren't won
Until the game is played

Chorus

An all time classic.

The head says the Dees by 3 goals tonight, the heart wants the Lions to get up to help our top 4 odds.

[myblueroan]

Bold move.
Hope it works out for ya.
I'll cheer for 'em but didn't tip that way.

 

[norway blue]

Brisbane or a draw.

Brions lose and the finals will be a big ask! Tough draw ahead

 

[bigm386]

Good to see 15k at the MCG meanwhile we have to play at Marvel.... Melbourne's home ground should be Preston City Oval.

 

[norway blue]

Gawn is a great ruck.

Some on the MB predicted 60K

 

[BigBreakfast]

Gawn’s eyes must light up at the thought of Big O. No way Oscar keeps up around the ground.

May gives away a 50

 

[bigm386]

Some on the MB predicted 60K

Someone needs to get off the pipe clearly.

The whole top deck is basically empty which would be at least 60k of the capacity.

3/4 of the 2nd level and about the same of first.

If the AFL claim much more than say 30k they are talking shit.

 

[katmanblue]

Just saw we got the picks for LOB and Stocker from Melbourne who used them on Lever.

Imagine Lever in our backline right now.

Soft as butter, Fritsch but can kick a snag!

Kmart has zero chance in a body contest with May. Get on your bike!
