Changes for Round 2 v Norf

[timeforanother22]

Booo! Where's my Saturday chaos?

I wanted them to actually run out of players to see what the AFL did next

 

[The_Gambler]

Time to take a Panadol and have a lay down for you i think…

Everyone was told the comp will go on. Everyone has a list of 20 players they can draw on.. just so happens its happened to the eagles(thanks marc) due to covid and injuries and probably wont happen to anyone else on this scale except probably Freo.. it is what it is.. its not bias, its not cheating its not anything.. its just amplified because of the number of injuries we have…

Is it unfair we have so many injuries? Is it unfair our gun ruckman is only able to ruck 2/3rds of a game? Should other teams best mids not play because Shueys got rubber hamstrings?
We lost last year because our players are mentally weak not because of afl handouts..
relax, enjoy tomorrow. Its gonna be a fun ride…

Such a shame the podcast crew aren’t doing a live commentary call to really top it off.

Post of the year

Listen to his presser or read it… we are down on listed players, playing blokes who have never trained with the club etc… we’ve still got a better team than last week and footy isn’t that complex a game I hate to tell you. Win the ball, beat your man. May be a blessing taking out some of our stagnant gameplan

What’d he say in it that’s an unacceptable excuse?



Just excuse after excuse there, really.

I love the validation of multiple users on my ignore list quoting and replying to each other in general agreeance.

I'm excited to watch it tbh

But this should absolutely set the precedent. No games can be postponed for the rest of the season. I have my doubts....

If it didn't rule out our players for the next game (which it would) I'd actually like one of or players to pass it on to a nth player on game day.

Would be serious ramifications for the AFL (as they need to provide a safe work environment).


The other thing I would like is to win, but that seems much less likely

On SM-G986B using BigFooty.com mobile app

Much easier just agreeing with each other than having to answer difficult questions like “what makes you say that”.

If The_Gambler is as good at gambling as he is at backing up his arguments, he’d be living in a cardboard box under a bridge.

How come using chrome mobile on here now there's no actual text tool when you post anymore?

Can't choose gifs, can't make anything bold, underlined, it's there but it's all greyed out and you legit cannot really do anything.

Its painful. Reckon it changed maybe 6 months ago.

Is it just a button I've clicked or what?



Plz don't tell me to use the Bigfooty app, it smells.

If you are using any extensions in Chrome try disabling/uninstalling

Ad blockers in particular have caused issues in the past on mobiles

Works fine on Safari.

(Well if fine = as good as it can be)

What disappeared quicker: our chances in this game or ziad and The_Gambler when asked to point to the “excuses” they were complaining about?

Don’t worry tough guy I’ve put 20 on us. Stronger midfield, back line holding up, Darling at CHF, Flyin at full forward running riot on Corr, B.Williams to just tag Goldy, less predictability, we can run out the match, less gaff on ball, less waterman, less rotham brain fades, we’re a big show. 6 of their players straight out of VFL virtually, they’re a rabble. Get back to basics, play for fun, play to win - footy at is simplest then week later we are in good nick for Derby. Looking forward to the keyboard warriors post match save your dribble for the podcast and your KFC bucket. 5 goals down, no NicNat, no Gaff, no Shep…

So many pub quiz night questions are going to be born out of this match

 

[WCE_phil]

Who knows, if it keeps going at this rate there is a posibility of a priority pick. It'd be end of first round or after our second rounder but still. TBH at this stage i've got us locked in for bottom 2 with it being more likely we take the spoon. If freo end up in a similar situation to us they could be bottom 4 as well.

Thank you! I've just installed it and it is life changing for using this forum. I was using Firefox on mobile - my auto predict wouldn't work and often I would be halfway through a word and it would "de-select", so I would have to click again to finish. It was a nightmare.

This thread has been an excellent reminder of why certain posters are firmly entrenched in my ignore list.

Life is too short to keep repeating the blindingly obvious.

Rumi also went on to say you can beat one AFL team with forty tradies. Bodes well.

I hope you’re right! What excuses did Simmo give?

 

[JackOutback]

Eagles to win, Hollywood to make a movie about it…bookmark it.

Don’t mind this from our social media people. At least they’re also seeing the humour in this
