Oppo Camp - Non-Eagles Discussion

Who gives a **** about finals anyway So overrated It’s all about the draft these days

There's no real pressure on him at GC. They have been a perennial basketcase so even just qualifying for finals is considered a win. He is out of the Melbourne bubble and has job security.

So, the bloke claims burnout for breaking his existing contract and then goes on to sign up for 5 years. That's really taking the piss.

You think a 6 month break, touring the USA/Europe then living in an Italian villa with your young squeeze, wouldn't help you feel 'refreshed'?

6 months off work is a long time.

Norf have 28 first and second rounders on their list.
But according to numbnuts, its ok for Reid to go there and not WC.

I agree with Bartel in that giving North another draft pick isn’t going to help them but it’s also amusing that a current GWS board member in his capacity as a media commentator is openly opposing concessions to a rival club

The conflicts of interest in the Victorian media landscape are insane

 

[Seadog]

On past form, she will blame men for all of her issues.

She should be thankful some men take the time to post vile demeaning sexist sh#*e about her online.

 

[Avalor]

That doesn't surprise me to be honest. It is the basic fundamentals like tackling, front and centre, moving the ball forward etc. that we are so bad at and have been since 2014.

Yeah, that comes back on the laziness of the players to not get back/onto the next contest .... Looking at Sheed here, mainly.

Wow...and he knocked it back
Wonder what the $$ were?

Sad that they are no longer trying to poach our rucks

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Interesting on his comments on Simmo being more tactical in his view of the game compared to Horse.

Listened to it on way into work this morning.

Can see why Guy McKenna hasn't had another shot as a head coaching job after hearing how he talked to Hickey (and the assumption he spoke to everyone like that).

Still time for them to go for Nic Nat.

Learned his craft under Malthouse. Can't imagine Mick was ever shy about telling players when he didn't rate them.

Out of touch with what is going to make a modern player respond positively though...

Look, maybe thankful is too strong of a word but at the very least she should shut up and wear it on the chin. Speaking out about such things can create a divide and make some people (such as the online bigots) feel uncomfortable and persecuted.
Much like Adam Goodes throwing a make believe spear at a crowd of 1000s is threatening, calling out sexism is just plain inflammatory, no wonder she's thought of as a man hater. It's her own fault really.

Miller cops a 1 match ban 48hrs before they play.

Just dumb from everyone involved from the players through to the administration.

(To clarify, it should have been properly cited in the first instance and zorko should have made a proper complaint instead of whinging through the media).

I believe Zorko did complain to the umpire at the time.

Yep

He told the umpire he was grabbed on the nuts.
Thought it should've gone in the umps report.

At the end of the day, a week is pretty light IMO.

100% agree - foulest of crimes on the footy field it was portrayed as; should be automatic 3 weeks.

Gets even worse for Eddie Ford. Google reckons he died in 1946.

[MrKK]

Crazy that the 4 teams that have had a draw this season are in spots 7-11 and within one win of each other. Normally % doesn't matter once you have a draw.

 

[Tugga27]

Port fined $100 000 with $50 000 being in the soft cap.

Is it just me or do people think fining clubs and players just an inconvenience?
Whether players or clubs, the only thing that hurts, is losing draft pics, premiership points or missing matches for players.

Edit* I do think some things are fine worthy, just not this type of thing.

Power cops huge fine over concussion protocols error

The AFL has handed Port Adelaide a massive fine for its handling of a head clash between Aliir Aliir and Lachie Jones

Touk is part of the god squad after all.

You cant escape the touchy feely
