Robbo should be banned from writing, speaking about anything *.

Sure, some of those decisions were contentious, but to blame that on a 45 point loss? Please

If all it takes is a couple contentious free kicks in the 3rd to turn * to rubble and never recover then they’ve got bigger issues than a couple contentious free kicks

So if/when pies smash them by 50+ will they still complain about the momentum they lost in the cats game?

He says anyway we’ll move on and then starts ranting on about how it’s all bewildering that man is crazy

PEOPLE THEY ARE LITERALLY RUNNING A MONTAGE OF UMPIRING CALLS AGAINST * IN THE 3RD QTR ON 360 RN.

You couldn't make this shit up.

Someone should remind them they won the free kick count 18-15. They are also winning the free kick differential for the entire competition. It's not like that one or two decisions cost them the game.

Anything that takes the focus of the fact they need a full rebuild is a good thing.



But yes it is sickening.

I think they are under some false illusion that Stringer and Goldy are gonna be around for the next 10 years to keep them half competitive

Stringer will be lucky if he’s around for the next 10 months

Guys I was there in the 2011 elimination final when the umpires robbed * of 13 goals against us! poor *, umpires have robbed them of basically every final in the last 7000+ days.

 

[RPCB]

I’ve come away from that rant pretty bewildered myself.

 

[CarmenSandiego]

To be fair, they were absolutely reamed by the umps - dead set looked like match fixing.

Geelong got a bullshit ride against us last time too, similar to the Essendon game killed our momentum every time we threatened. I was absolutely livid and happy to blame the umps for the loss on that occasion.

 

[Ezayyak]

To be fair, some of those decisions were appalling and in the footage it seemed the wild flapping of the Geelong players' arms to appeal to the umpires seemed to have influenced several decisions.

Nicotine and alcohol impacts the brain. He should be a case study they use to deter children from such substances.

This is why I didn't want Brad Scott at Carlton. He was the same at Norf. Always making excuses for losses. "Carlton were 'lucky', we were the better side." "We'll need to 'seek clarification' on some decisions in the Geelong game." Would never hear that stuff from Vossy.

Voss did say that we needed to seek clarification after the Suns game though.
Which was fair enough, I think that was the worst and most one-sided umpired game that I've ever seen. And we still won.

BTW, if you treat * as a cult, it sort of makes sense.... * is a cult...

 

[heardofhubris]

Sorry, but why should the game be made to suffer because #47 for * does not possess a left foot and therefore compel the aforementioned to rush a point?

I'd be really disappointed if having copped those umpiring decisions our blokes dropped their bundle and got beaten by 45 points. * are experts at finding excuses and hiding behind them.

Not really. We had a few players out (Saad, Fogarty) were playing two rucks (TDK touched the ball 6 times on the night) and started o.k. with Kennedy on Heeney and cincotta playing back pocket on Papley.

We were ordinary after half time but this game pretty much forced a tactical rethink going to one ruck and Cincotta moving taking his duties further up the ground.

Maybe * use last Saturday night as a learning experience. Seems more likely that they just blame the umpires to me.

Not exactly the same, but we started well, and the umps swung momentum in the 2nd quarter. We should have been 2 goals up at half time, instead of 2 goals down, and then we got smashed.

 

[Arr0w]

If players are dropping their heads due to some contentious decisions, then they lack mental fortitude as a group

It's like making some errors that cause opposition goals, you just fight hard to gain momentum back

Weiters going down was a big factor in the score blowing out. Lost composure down back from general play. Would not have stopped the smacking we got out of the centre square
