Mega Thread Non-Freo AFL Discussion 2024 Part 2

[freo1997]

Our fans would be lining up to make excuses for a loss with those outs . Chris Scott’s a pro though.

 

[Ge3ks]

I honestly can’t believe we lost to these clowns.

I can.

We shat the bed.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

I feel like it's worth a poll considering the discussion DragoDelph

I'm being genuine here, would you rather:
A) As more angry supporters have said, have possibly worse coach in JL and not make finals consistently
B) Be stuck with Hinkley for twice as long because he always make finals but then always loses them

I honestly think having Hinkley for coach must be close to torture by now

 

[Randomizor]

Wish Geelong would take our “there’s always next year” attitude instead of their current “let’s win the whole damn thing this year” one

Their opposition analysis, game-day coaching and ability to move magnets is pretty top notch when it works. Meanwhile our MC is still stuck 10 steps back fumbling team selection.

I'd hate to make finals and never win one....Its the hope that gets you.

Ports fans are stuck in purgatory oscillating between wanting to love him or lynch him.

 

[freo1997]

Maybe Eagles should hold off on King for now. Hinkley might become available after all.

 

[FreoRicci]

We shat the bed.

Just shows Fremantle aren’t a tough hardened team. Geelong aren’t classy but they’re well drilled and skilful

Why?
4 qualifying finals. At home.

What can you do? Players don’t respond? Players think they’re better than they are?
He got them 2nd, in a tight season.

Gotta be in it to win it

This is what good teams do, just find a away meanwhile freo and jlo just find more excuses

 

[Dockeroo]

Our mids really need to work on their finishing in front of goal. Good players just don't miss as many straightforward chances as our guys do.

That’s the difference between good players and average players.

 

[DQ 4EVER]

As much as I have liked Rozee as a player, he seems an absolute nonentity as a captain

Cats should be up by even more here.

Threadmarked.

I’ll look at it tomorrow

 

[Ripper]

Port have had to battle the Freo curse as well as the Cats tonight

 

[freo1997]

If we didn’t make finals in 2010 we would have a couple of flags in the bank by now.

Steve’s wanted to sack Harvey and appoint Scott but couldn’t after 2010. Rest is history.

It's basically like last game for us but twice as bad and every season. I dont think there's enjoyment in that

Don’t want to poke any bears here but after 5 full seasons of JL, we are only one or two more seasons of frustrating 6-10th placed finishes, sprinkled with some honourable losses, to be in a very similar position to Port fans and Ken Hinkley….

 

[freo1997]

See Jlo!!!! Tagging the oppositions best player is a good thing. JHF 10 disposals and it’s nearly 3qtr time.

 

[Randomizor]

Maybe Eagles should hold off on King for now. Hinkley might become available after all.

Honestly not the worst choice for them. He’s clearly a great regular season coach but not a great finals coach. Eagles won’t need to worry about finals for quite a few years yet so that should work.

I mean, I'm deadset its top 4 or bust next year, isnt Ken like 5 years ahead of us? I'm not holding on that long

A poor finals record is irrelevant for the West Coast coaching search
