Mega Thread Non-Freo AFL Discussion 2024 Part 2

[FreoRicci]

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

2nd is bad?

I’d rather a chance.

Port fans are cynical and full of themselves. It’s the SANFL presence get to their heads

 

[Purple Jesus]

**** you Port. We'd have smashed Geelong with Treacy back. Young or no.

 

[mike91]

Rozee can't be proud of his performance tonight. Premiership quarter and he was probably their worst

I'm not talking about 2nd. There basically is no chance, it's like 12 years of evidence. For whatever reason, he can not perform in finals. It's the gutting feeling of last game but worse

 

[Dockeroo]

Is there another Shaun Mannagh in this draft? What a pick up!

Would of played Brizzy and got smashed up there.

 

[Ge3ks]

5 goals to zip.

The Sack Hinkley thread is poppin' off.

 

[Dockeroo]

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

I agree.

Pretty sure the Ken vent thread has been going for quite some time over there though

Hard to fathom.
It’s not just Hinkley it’s 2001-2007 as well.
2001 straight sets
2002/03 loss in prelims.
2004 nearly loss prelim before flag.

Seems like a culture thing

 

[Lach72]

Straight sets baby.

Who boy, port board gonna be frothin’

 

[trentjac]

Is this conversation about making finals a joke? The more finals the better. I’d much prefer get there and fail then not get there at all.

100%. Just being there is so crucial. You get a chance.

The psychological impact of this stuff probably isnt discussed as much but I'm deadset certain Essendon are basically perpetually ****ed now because of the finals thing. Basically the same thing here, they need a full clean-out and restart

 

[freo1997]

Shows you we weren’t bad against Geelong..just a selection or two wrong by conservative Jlo. Going back to the well and choosing Tabs over Reidy. Ditto Worner over Noddy.

Darcy shouldn’t of played against the Bombers.

GWS game we were pretty good, just a crab or two who weren’t up to it. Didn’t man up and tag Daniels. Felt like that was easily our best performance of the last 4.

Port we just went to water.

Missed out on finals because of poor selections.

 

[DragoDelph]

 

[pavstar]

Kern has led the Porf horse to water but Kern hasn’t taught the Porf horse how to drink said water…

You say that now, but what if you're stuck with a coach every year forever because he makes finals but then loses them every time. 12 years, imagine 12 years of the game we had last week

Tend to agree with this.

Normally you need to make a couple of finals series before winning it outright.
We are bother year behind now after losing this year (when we shouldnt have)

 

[Ge3ks]

Watch Dixon do his faux' tough guy act now.

 

[Outshined]

Seasoned Ken haters could see this coming from a mile away.

For a coach whose reputation is staked on his ability as a motivator over a tactician, his inability to get them firing at the pointy end of the season is staggering.

Oh no. He called him bald.

Didn’t Richmond win in 2017 without finals ? It’s possible, but everything has to go right.
Getting home top 2 is so important

 

[freo1997]

How does Kane Cornes spin this to protect his mate.

They made it 13-15
