Mega Thread Non-Freo AFL Discussion 2024 Part 2

[Johnny Dalmas]

Gathe round was 4 months ago.

We had plenty of other chances

Yep. We coughed up leads against Power, Hawks, Cats, Bombers since then.

Go 50/50 in those close ones and today we are home hosed.

**** just go 25/75 and we are gold

If that bottle thrown at the umpire came from the official Carlton cheersquad then I think it's only fair that the AFL punish Carlton with an automatic loss today.

Dog act

 

[james haish]

This makes me laugh. Serious club, something vague and undefinable. Like, are you kidding me? Dogs have been the most inconsistent club all year and they're a... Wait for it... Serious club?

More serious than us, easily.

Yeah but the word "Dog" doesn't get chewed up by the swear filter. But you're right

 

[Kram]

Magnificent Hilly.

Amazing that we could miss out on finals with 13.5 wins, all because the bottom three sides have won 10/69 (14.5%)

We will miss finals and have been two wins from finishing 2nd. Astounding outcomes.

3 points from finishing second. 1 against Collingwood, 2 against Essendon.

Our season boils down to 1 point from playing finals. 2 points from a home final, 3 points from top 2.

How completely ****ed up is that??

1 point from playing finals. A single point. 1.

**** yes I’m being dramatic. But the drama is in the truth.

It's why I'm not going to buy into the doom and gloom coming if/when we don't play finals

Crazy how these teams that are playing for their season actually look desperate. We've had none of that in the past few weeks.

Brayshaw described the pressure in the Geelong game in the last quarter as some of the most intense he’s experienced.

It’s a nonsense to suggest we were somehow coasting. An older, stronger side brought experience, intensity and pressure & we weren’t quite good enough. It really is that simple.

UEFA would lock out the teams fans, deduct points and fine them.

Good on ya Jesse.

The problem in that game wasn't the last quarter, it was the first. After the week before when Essendon put on five goals in a row in the last, we came out and let Geelong put four on us before we woke up.

Surely there's no practical way they could enforce a life ban anyway?

I’m just tired of the endless disappointment. Gets a bit much after a while. Hopefully by 6.30 today I’m undisappointed.

 

[noise36]

It's the hope that kills you...

Either Saints win and the we lose or saints lose , the only certainty is heart break.

Nek minut life ban on plastic water bottles.

 

[Tony_Clifton]

Beauty will save the world. If a miserable bastard like Dostoevsky can find a cinder of hope so can we.

What could be more beautiful than pushing Carlton out of the eight. Plus we make finals so that's good too.

 

[Kapow!!!]

Carlton back on top so far, Saints have to hold up this momentum

 

[Jeba]

Another soft 50 to turn momentum

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Jesus NWM has been soft today
