Mega Thread Non-Freo AFL Discussion 2023

[Joao]

Just listened to Lachie, citing the win over Carlton as a counter point to their poor form at the MCG. Must rate teams based on where the experts had them going pre-season.

I personally think he got upset because he knows they are severely up against it to win the flag this year now and his time is starting to run out.

If you know anyone who is playing a drinking game and having a drink after every Adelaide goal, please check on them now.
They may be unconscious and must be monitored in the second half.

Conversely the person who is drinking a shot every time Darling Darling Darling touches the ball can easily be the driver for the ride home, nae worries at all, sober as me long dead granma.

They have to be close to one of the biggest pretenders of all time if they don't win a flag in the next couple of years.

2020 will be looked back as the choke of the century from Brisbane. A home preliminary final, leading into an unprecedented home Grand Final, and they bottled it.

Xavier O’Neil is a true crab.

 

[kingswood71]

TBH, even if your team is shit, it doesnt stop you from running and chasing
Shameful.

 

[CakeEater]

I do love hearing too easy for the crows as they waltz into goals against the eags

 

[pavstar]

Maric didn't even get slightly turgid from kicking that goal… probably thinking “What the **** am I doing here playing with these clowns”

 

[Jezzitizle]

Is this Simmo’s last game?

I don't even remember that Lions/Carlton game. You'd think the captain would have a better response then that.

 

[Joao]

2 goals for Maric, is he their best player already?

 

[kingswood71]

Walker better pull his finger out!!

100%

The correct response is we'd like to be better, we're working hard etc. One of those cliches.

You know you're in trouble when you start deflecting or pointing fingers. Needs to take ownership and I suspect he's thought that to himself since he said it.

 

[gaskin]

Hahaha Darling.

 

[Righteo]

If WC has a big last qtr they may be able to claw their way to another plucky 10-11 goal loss, which really is as good as a win for them these days.

Looks like we'll have to overtake the Crows on wins though.

 

[gaskin]

8 now for Tex.

 

[kingswood71]

Onya Tex...

 

[FreoRicci]

Imagine putting your best forward on Walker.
Simpson should be gone

Nah Crows want %...they will win by 120+

The Coleman Medal will be awarded by the Eagles this year.

#keepsimmoatwestcoast

 

[Joao]

I know they aren't exactly going hell for leather as it is, but if West Coast really pack it in last quarter, Crows could get the double ton.

 

[Wilksyy]

Still another quarter of this shit. I’m taking a nap
