No Oppo Supporters Non Bulldog Footy Talk - Bulldogs only - Part 4

[Libbaaaa]

I’d drink his bath water. He’s a pretty incredible player.

He is, selfish as all hell though bit gets away with it. Nowhere near elite.

 

[immortalmike]

McKay is a far worse stager than Weightman and Ginnivan at least they accentuate real contact and take the hit.

You'd be forgiven for believing there was a sniper out there tonight.

 

[Libbaaaa]

OMG Dyson Heppell is such a poor decision-maker. How did this guy get to have such a long career?

His pre match speech was cringe.

 

[dergert]

What is this Carlton squeeze fest on Fox Footy at the moment?

"Carlton's been amazing so far blah blah".

They're only 4 goals up against Essendon hahaha

 

[Libbaaaa]

heck this Essendon stuff is cringe.

 

[Mantis Toboggan]

He is clearly ‘elite’.

 

[Norm De Guerre]

Are Essebdong celebrating something of note tonight?

Channel Seven keep beating around the bush about something or other, but I cant quite work out what it is.

If only they'd talk about it a bit more, I could probably work it out.

Staging by both sides multiple times. Ignored by commentators. But, you know, Weightman…

 

[Leon]

Did we break Essendon in that final last year?

Probably.

 

[GetDimmaBack]

Are Essebdong celebrating something of note tonight?

10th peptide anniversary, apparently.

Happy flashbacks, Bumblers

 

[Chicago1]

I'm no Carlton fan, but seeing the Bombres lose on such an auspicious night in their club's history makes me giddy, absolutely giddy

guy looks alright.

I presume he's the sort of fringe player from other clubs that we will be looking at to fill our KPD needs over the summer.

He’s no better than what we have. I don’t think we’ll be ruing that one in years to come.

 

[Struggle]

Did we break Essendon in that final last year?

Probably.

They've been broken for 20 years

 

[Mantis Toboggan]

Parish out is a big one. That’s probably 1 metre gained that the rest of the team are going to have to cover.

$1M a season to average 9 disposals at 56% efficiency and less than a goal a game

Stringer would be captain of an All Time Greatest Waste Of Talent 22 team, wouldn’t he?

 

[Golden_6]

I’ve watched him a fair bit this year and he’s still ordinary. Other than Weitering, the Blues KPD stocks are actually worse than ours.

I would never trust him in a big game and the way he plays.

 

[footscray1973]

Are Taylor and Brayshaw completely delusional?!
"Bombers are pressing."
"Another goal and Essendin are in this."

FMD, Essendin are almost Eagles level. Carlton players could all walk off now, and Bombers would still stuff up a forward entry.

On current form, is there a single Bombers player on the field tonight who we would seriously consider could crack into our VFL team?

 

[Mantis Toboggan]

Stringer would be captain of an All Time Greatest Waste Of Talent 22 team, wouldn’t he?

I actually don’t know anymore. He had one fantastic year. Is that enough to class him as a ‘Great waste of talent’? There have been plenty of ‘average’ players have exceptional seasons. Old Jakey boy has certainly wasted the talent he has…but I’m not sure he ever had enough to be a great player anyway.

He’s just shanked one out on the full as I write this. Classic.

 

[footscray1973]

I really hope Sheedy has had a sh1t night - maybe a drunk ex-player p1ssed all over his trouser leg at the reunion.

Nah can’t buy that

I think he has genuine talent- he's just never applied himself enough to improve as a player. If he'd worked his butt off over a preseason, any preseason at either club, he could have achieved a lot more.
