That 50 not being paid to McStay was such a beautiful act of Karma.

The fact that McRae had a sook about it makes even more sweeter. **** me mate, have you noticed how many throws and incorrect disposals you get away with?

Take the blinkers off mate!

The non fifty to us cost is a win.

The non fifty to them has cost them a finals berth.

Superb.

Karma with sauce.

 

[Roostorm]

This is why l laugh at these so called “MEDIA EXPERTS” ….oh how wrong can you be.
Let that be a lesson….never go the early crow until the final game is done and dusted….

saturdays result may not have gone our way but one positive is that a north player is in the top 2 for champion data rankings across the afl for round 22.

did anyone see this kind of year coming from big X before the season started? definitely proved me wrong.

I might have to send this into CD to justify.

Normally I can understand their ratings which weight damage per possession above everything. But I'd love Hoyne's justification of Gawn vs Xerri's ratings this round.

It seems like Gawn having 8 intecept's and the 4 intercept marks has just overridden a completely ridiculous statistical output from Xerri.


Xerri had +8 disposals, +3 inside 50's, +8 CP, +6 clearances, +1 marks, +1 contested marks, +10 tackles, +15 pressure acts and +3 hitouts.

Some of these are ridculous.

There shouldn't have been a big DE% drop either, as Xerri's was fine.

The little insecure w***er purple putting Gawn over Xerri in the AA and says Xerri needs to prove himself in the last few games?!

Are you kidding me? Gawn is the most insufferable, overrated ruckman I’ve ever seen. Absolute Lebron James of the AFL, he flops around like wet paper and sooks at every contest. Purple doesn’t watch footy at all, he’s got zero idea.

Man I hate the media, it’s not even a discussion, we haven't seen a tough or influential ruckman like big X in yearssssss

They don't call purple purple for nothing.

When my middle daughter was learning to talk she would say purpoo instead of purple and I just think that about sums up damo

Was that Curtis’s best game so far? Probably should have had 4 goals

Well they can’t use goal assists to get Gawn in over Xerri . But they will use intercept mark’s instead lol

The game we lost to west coast over there last year, he kicked 4 in the third qrt plus a miss from the goal square

Oh I can name all the losses.

A little hazy on the wins though

I think that's a typo. They probably meant to say "ACtual talent..." instead of "More talent..."

Yes but not for that reason.

We are hosting a preliminary final lunch. Good off-field initiative.

Meanwhile we have reached 4 preliminary finals in the last 24 years.

That was my takeaway.

We had to borrow a premiership cup from Carlton for our GF Breakfast back in the day....

Just re-posting a post I made earlier in the thread when the topic of Paul Roos came up:

Paul Roos is an absolute bell end of epic proportions, let me say that.

However, we really don’t help ourselves and the type of characters we’ve chosen to work with over the years.

After years of almost personal attacks on Ben Cunnington and others, we decided to pay Paul to sit on a banana lounge (in between cold messaging people on LinkedIn) and set the direction of our club.

Then, after years of taking relentless potshots at us as a club, we choose to invite Damian Barrett to do an exclusive with our then CEO (Amarfio) and host corporate events on behalf of the club.

At some point we have to say “you’re dead to me” to these campaigners.
