Opinion Commentary & Media VII

I'm not sure there's room for both Colby and Fish in our side, if we can only play one of them I'd be persisting wth Colby

Can always play Fisher forward for a couple of weeks until McKercher is ready to take over the wing on the opposite side to Scott

Of course I like this but the best stat is winning games, I’ll start fellating when we beat teams like the swans at their home ground

 

[flojo]

I’d rather play them with their weakest possible team.

And with 19 men on the field and with a 76th interchange rotation.

But seriously I haven’t followed football media for so long and now I can’t get enough. You just feel so proud when they gush over your team.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Can I make a suggestion?

giantroo needs to have his own sub forum where he can place his videos, articles etc. in a separate thread for each round. Too many of them get lost in these super large threads and it's impossible to locate them.

GRNN = GiantRoo News Network

That's what I'm thinking.

I think fish would be jumping on at that suggestion.

AFL be mad to not give us some better time slots next year. Feels like we are everyone’s 2nd team at the min. And people really enjoying the kids and our style

 

[Caracas]

clarko could see bails big efforts late in the game, shame a few round here couldn't due to their blinkers.

Happy to say I broke my “likes” record with a post about how well Bailey played in the last quarter.

 

[Rod Stroker]

One's done it in a team at the top of the ladder, the other has done it at the bottom

**** off Kane you dog shit

 

[Marksup]

The problem is despite performing well in the midfield our inside 50 numbers are below average on a weekly basis.

Edit - we are last for inside 50s by a fair way.

I don’t disagree with this but to be fair the weekend’s numbers were skewed by the last quarter. And they were only skewed because we defended so well. When you defend an entry there’s a good chance it comes back in, in this day and age.

It was a bit like that. Christ can't imagine when we are winning all the time

 

[Jonnoo]

I like Slobbos enthusiasm but geez “he does everythink very good”……. Don’t let your kids watch this.

 

[CURVE]

We are now a fun team to watch. I wonder how many Friday night games that will be worth next season?

About 1 is my guess

As I said earlier, when we're winning consistently, they'll all be trying to chop us down (tall poppy syndrome) and refer back to the assistance we were given. **** em!

1pm to 2pm starts are the perfect time on Saturday and Sunday arvos.

I was more thinking you will be blind doing it too much

You may be right, but I think the AFL will be shooting themselves in the foot if they don't give Sheezel, LDU, Wardlaw, McKercher and Curtis some primetime exposure to show their wares.

 

[Billy Not Really]

While Simpkin should be sole captain, and should have been this whole time, to be honest I am starting to see the game begin to go past him and he can’t even find a permanent spot in our midfield, and if we shuffle the decks around a little more to top up our talent pool it may be hard for him to find a spot at all once we really start firing which I think may be in as soon as 2 years.

Sheezel will be captain, it’s a matter of when and not if. I am certain of this, but the question is how long would Simpkin be captain for and have it be meaningful? I can’t see it being more than 2 years, and in those 2 years Sheezel WILL surpass him and he’s steadily becoming the main man, frankly its a dilemma.

I think North made a mistake with co-captaincies, it was utterly pointless and the process of doing so was a popularity contest amongst the boys when it should be criteria based committee and merit-based.

If Simpkin is to be sole captain, I think it’ll be a short run.

Iv been against both current captains doing it again next year but i could make a case for Jy Captain Harry VC for one more year.
