Non-Lions Footy Season (2018)

[M Malice]

What chance the Blues fire up today v the Power for Kade Simpson's 300th, been a fantastic footballer.

On one hand, I really hate port.

On the other hand, I don't want carlton to leapfrog us on the ladder.

Footy is hard.

 

[Hollow Knight]

BTW haven't seen a single person try and defend it as locker room talk.

Good. Thus the reason I put it in sarcastic quotes.

Maybe we are slowly inching towards the right direction afterall.

 

[M Malice]

Blues in front at quarter time 30-24, Charlie Curnow on fire, the Blues have a gun on their hands, if they get Jack Lukosius look out.

We're getting the wooden spoon!

We're getting the wooden spoon!

Long way to go yet in this game, and the season.

Yep, Robbie Gray putting his foot down now.

Port were always going to win this comfortably.

Carlton play well for 25 percent of games.

 

[jackess]

It’s a very competitive race to the spoon again this year. Not sure we’ll be so lucky.

“Locker Room Talk”. Just like the Dorito Dictator/Mango Mussolini himself.

Hopefully just a symptom of the current death rattle of boorish toxic masculinity.

Guffawing simpletons.

*insert Triple M jingle here*

Someone posted an interview Aker did on the footy show in the media watch thread. Painful stuff listening to the back slapping and over the top boisterous laughter from the hosts.

Wish we played with half the intensity of what Carlton has done this quarter

 

[DashinD]

Carlton up and about. How annoying.

 

[jackess]

Inside 50s: 49-26 ports way

 

[SizeMatters]

Curnow is going to be an all time great. In such a shit team and to be contributing every week in the way he has is insane.

 

[pulpdriver]

Enjoyable game of footy and can't help but find myself cheering for Carlton. Doesn't really bode well for us. If they get in to form and we don't play well we could be facing them with a 6 day break coming back from Perth and low on confidence. Could see us potentially bottom with a two win gap between us and second last. Hope we play well tomorrow.

 

[jackess]

Would trade any player on our list for Cripps or Curnow

 

[Simba Moyo]

Yet the AFL keep employing blokes like Hall despite them having bricks for brains. If the AFL actually sought out the best commentary team and helped develop their abilities the game would be instantly more watchable. I think my interest in watching opposition games has waned due to the commentary more than anything.

As stupid as it sounds, we really should look at how WWE approach commentary - have the play by play and colour commentators as well as investing in developing and training newer commentators. Reward blokes who are actually good at their jobs (ability to commentate, knowledge on teams etc) and stop giving jobs to ex players just because they're ex players.

I'm not sure I could handle BT and Michael Cole in the box together

 

[jackess]

Beyond awful 15 seconds for Pollson has cost them the match

Coach killer doesn't quite describe it, more like coach disemboweller. Port surging with momentum now.

Harris Andrews?

 

[jackess]

Harris Andrews?

It’d be tough. But I wouldn’t be disappointed with the trade

 

[a mayes ing]

Curnow fast becoming my favourite non-Lion. Already a gun and only in his 3rd? year

Such a shame as it would have been fantastic to see Andrews v Curnow

 

[Saucery]

There's about 6 radio commentary teams alone that all cater to different areas and demos. Anyone who tunes in to Triple M over one of the other options knows what they're getting. Simpletons if you want to call it that. Bit rough IMO. I don't mind National Indigenous Radio when I want actual analysis.

BTW haven't seen a single person try and defend it as locker room talk. Had a scan through twitter and every single comment I saw supported his sacking.

ABC Grandstand for me

 

[M Malice]

Carlton are going to be tough proposition next week, Gardner to Curnow?

 

[scott_the_man]

Cripps just ran about 40m in a circle and didnt get pinged. Terrible umpiring.
