Mega Thread Non-Freo AFL Discussion 2024 Part 2

[mattis117]

Dogs are coming hard for a top 4 spot.

I don't think they will make it, will finish fifth IMO.

Are we taking the head knocks seriously when we allow the whole Hawks forwardline to manipulate the rules?

 

[mattis117]

Reckon we're about third best atm, my order has changed to 1. Brisbane, 2. Dogs, 3. Freo, 4. Swans, 5. Carlton 6. Geelong, 7. GWS, 8. Port/Hawks

With Alex in the side, I would rate us almost even with the Dogs against anyone else.

 

[Kram]

Remember everyone melting because we got beat bad by the Dogs?

Bad day but they are a talent packed side and found form.

 

[sumavich]

Bulldogs are looking scary

 

[Steinfreo]

Is lobb the greatest defender of all time?

 

[gaskin]

I really would prefer the dogs not to make the finals - or have someone knock them out for us. They match up well against us and so hard for us to play.

Agreed. They are the one team that could make the finals that scare me. I think we can match up well against all the others.

I think Brisbane will be the bookmakers’ favourites after today. We should be 3rd or 4th.

Yeah I reckon we can best anyone, but on exposed form, dogs and lions are slightly ahead.

 

[greatgatsby]

Unless their mids kick a few goals I don’t think Sydney can even make the GF. Without Papley their forward line isn’t up to it.

 

[Randomizor]

We have officially broken Sydney

 

[Ge3ks]

Hamling could play next week.

 

[Nothing]

We have officially broken Sydney

The media told me it was St Kilda that broke Sydney.

All St Kilda can break is their own supporters hearts

No.

Not at all.

The repetitive micro trauma from ducking into tackles will kill the game more than the big hits the AFL wants to get rid of.

They've had their chance to make changes for the last 15 years and done jack shit.

Sydney’s run towards the finals…

Sydney feel like 2015 Freo at the moment.

Crikey, Freo sure put the skids under Sydney.

Might as well take credit for it, anyway.

Yeah, that feels accurate. The wheels falling off with injuries and fatigue exposing a lack of depth.

Said the same thing when they lost to the Saints, the similarities are uncanny.

Just like Melbourne in 2022, once we broke their aura of invincibility they crashed out big time, wouldn’t be surprised to see the swans go out in straight sets.

 

[mattis117]

Sad day of Sunday footy, three uncompetitive games.

 

[s_wd6]

Hawks are a digusting team. I want nothing more than for them to miss finals this year.

The more we see of them the better our loss to them in Tassie looks however.
