Banter Geelong V Richmond - GO!

[Wosh]

In the interests of keeping your back and forth shite fights out of match threads so normal people can talk.

Keep it clean and above the shorts
Off topic rubbish clogging up match threads will be moved here, knock yourselves out.

 

[STPer18]

You lost so many finals that I lost count. Sorry

Joel Selwood played 355 games, of those, 40 - yes 40 - were finals, and he retired a 4x premiership player. If you lost count of the losses you sure as shit lost count of the many wins. Think about it, Joel Selwood has won more finals than the entirety of Richmond FC in the 21st century, yet you carry on like you follow this almighty finals juggernaut. It was a four period stretch of success that still pales in comparison to the best clubs of the 21st century.

Two, 2 mark GFs are disgusting I could’ve done better

Disgusting?

You really do take this footy stuff seriously don’t you.

Losing sleep over the physique of a 60-year-old who retired from his job before you were born is a particular worry

 

[Mr Meow]

Yep, you could've bettered both Ablett and Dunstall's goal scoring records in finals too I'm sure.

This, from someone who has never played football at any sort of competitive level.

You are quite literally the definition of a keyboard warrior.

No joke I think everybody on this forum could get 1 or 2 marks for the whole game. He performance was that grotty, but hey he’s you’re GOAT right? Pffff ahahahahah

That is such a poor return it isn’t even funny. Especially when he’s only 1 time premiership captain and got carried in all 4 flags.

KB got 5 flags without even playing 30 finals.

No joke I think they couldn’t. You don’t know who Stephen Silvagni is, do you.

Poor bait iz poor

I’m pretty sure many many MANY footballers could’ve gotten more than two marks on him mate.

Please don’t tell me you’ve made an excuse for those disgusting performances too. How sad is that

You just claimed people on this forum could just waltz out in a grand final and play on Silvagni and get a couple of marks.

Well pin this one up there with Lockett being better than Carey despite not being greater.

Lockett the loser.

Where was my excuse mate.

Tell me what time you go to sleep every morning after you carve the chips off your shoulder over a 60 year old retiree

 

[southern_crusher]

After further reading that cleansweep17 poster (as an outsider looking in) has the most deluded opinions on footy ive ever read.

You're losing your edge. Joel Selwood walks into a club on a 44-year premiership drought, finished 10th the year before he arrives and by the end of his career that very same club is now the most successful of the current century. Yet Falcon claims that's a poor return. You'd name a grandstand in that man's honour if you could.

They don’t have a ground so they can’t.

Their ground’s biggest stand is named after a St Kilda reserves player

 

[demondavey]

Sure I would.
Most sports around the globe weren't taken seriously. They mock the Lakers for their bubble Championship and the same applies to Richmond.
16 rounds, reduced minutes, what a joke.

They’d have won anyway…

Surely i didnt just read that a general poster on a forum would walk into a grand final side and atleast take 2-3 marks.

Playing on SOS

Yeah. You read that right.

Among his other gems have been:

- despite the first hand testimony of literally every teammate GAS ever had, his fitness was poor based on a picture he found on Google images of Sr with love handles

- he was a poor finals player in general after the 89 GF despite averaging 4 goals a game across his finals career

- he was a poor contested mark

- full forwards can’t be any good if they aren’t deadly accurate and they aren’t taking contested marks. Ie: if they are kicking 5.5 and they are getting all their ball uncontested (so in other words leaving their opponent in their wake) they are inferior to someone kicking 3.0 who has to earn their ball through contested marks.

It’s a festival of logic when Falcon arrives after another day at the Masonic Lodge

You haven't even scratched the surface yet. Get out now before it's too late.

 

[PhatBoy]

Look I don't like GAS as a man but to say that about his footballing ability is completely insane. Whoever that poster is i hope he gets the help he needs.

This is just in the past couple of days. Not sure if you’ve ever watched Lord of the Rings but it’s a mine that plumbs Moria-like depths once you start to explore it.

 

[Cleansweep17]

Oh my God. Talking to yourself now Cleany, Falcon, Baldy, Carboot, and Keeper?

That’s just sad.

This Falcon guy will live in your head rent free for the rest of your life even though he’s not even here. That’s what’s sad.

Obviously I can’t.

For the amount of finals Geelong/he played it’s an atrocious return. Should’ve had at least another 2-3 flags.

What’s sad is the volume of retired footballers you never even watched who are living rent free in yours.

That’s true, I’m trying to get the 94 and 95 GAS GFs performances out of my brain. But they were so bad it’s mentally scarred me.

It doesn’t help that a GAS v Carey thread was made. That’s embarrassing.

“This Falcon guy”. Please.

 

[Cleansweep17]

No, I think you’re trolling because you’re an alias and you think Dusty is a better player than GAJ, and have the gall to suggest it’s not because you’re a Richmond fanboy.

Who exactly are you trying to kid?

What I just mentioned before is why I think he’s better. When you have the most decorated season ever and most decorated finals resume ever I actually think it’s ludicrous to think there isn’t an argument to be made. Is that not fair enough?

Dusty has broken so many AFL/VFL records it isn’t even funny.

I’ll ask you another question. Who are you taking in a GF or any final for that matter. Dusty or GAJ? Exactly.

So maybe think about who’s actually being ridiculous, everybody would take Dusty when it matters, that’s what makes him better.

What doesn’t help about it? Can’t you avoid it? Is there someone making you read it?

No one forces you to post there or read it.

I follow the Cats and I can get those games out of my brain. They were football games not natural disasters, political coups or world wars. So most normal people find ways of dealing with it. That you can’t is odd.
