Non Lions Discussion 2024

[BRAB]

I've been through so many eras of teams being hateable that it just don't worry me any more.

If we can't win it who cares.

If we can put up with Collingwood beating us by 4 points I figure we've survived the worst.

Are we all going to pretend Collingwood isn’t your second team

Gold Coast rolling their kids through their VFL team when they’re not playing in the AA championships.

Going for the Swans here. I mean it'd be nice to see them get beaten at some stage, but not today thanks.

 

[Grasshopper17]

Wow game doesn't look to be even close to a sell out. Bit of inclement weather around, and Sydneysiders don't need much of an excuse to stay in.

how did a nsw derby and a match that was probably predicted to be a top 4 clash get shafted for melbourne and norf in prime time this evening? lol

Melbourne Norf could be spicy. Dees are close to giving up on their season I can feel it

i sense there could be some opportunities to cause a little mischief in the main board game thread

having a night in tonight......

 

[Grasshopper17]

Geez they are eviscerating the Giants now. Game's almost over already.

Good for us if Swans and maybe Blues keep on winning, makes us a very good chance to snag a spot in the top 4 if we continue with our current form.

 

[Harris Specter]

The melts would be hilarious if North were to beat Dees tonight.

Im anti Dangerfield generally but there’s no way that tackle was dangerous.

He executed that type of tackle where he knew Walsh was vulnerable and lifted and held him back whilst taking him to ground.
Walsh throws his upper body forward and whiplashes his head towards the ground. Creating the illusion.
He should come out and say he milked it but in doing so as a ball winner he will take away further opportunities of milking more.
Bad look.

Walsh did the head drop action twice more during the match.

Carlton is the most professional team in terms of playing for frees. I don't say that in a bitter way. But you watch the consistency of action in the way they flop for frees. They must spend considerable time on it.

I think we'll be the ones to hand them a loss in a few weeks.

I think it would be a very good game if we played next week.

Swans coming after our consecutive goal record from earlier today

All good!

 

[Grasshopper17]

All good!

They were pretenders all along

 

[Grasshopper17]

This is possibly worst game I've seen for the year so far. Whatever happens from here, hopefully we are good enough next week to not be dragged to down to what currently appears to be Melbourne's level.

 

[FFB1]

Melbourne shoulda offloaded Oliver when they had the chance

 

[HereIGoAgain]

Melbourne are deadset ordinary. Fritsch getting toweled up by a kid is fun to watch. Wardlaw is a serious talent.

Jackson Archer's fearlessness in the air really channels his old man.

Fritsch is going to find things a lot harder without a dominant midfield feeding him cheap goals

They've all dropped in confidence and just seem to be going through the motions.

With Gawn getting a bit salty on the way things have turned out and sick of doing everything a big problem is on field leadership

 

[luthor]

Some horrible umpiring.

North being reamed

 

[HereIGoAgain]

A HIA for any player diving for grass then holding their head. That would stop the Selwood types like Walsh and May.
