Oppo Camp Other Clubs News/General Discussion

[Pie eyed]

I’ve had a Legends membership since they were introduced. I don’t recall that. What membership is that?

Legends.

2011. I had to sit in the nosebleeds for the Geelong loss.

The one I saw was a screenshot of one allegedly from JG.
I think he might’ve been on the golf course because he said Ken can lick his balls.

That was a fake account. I looked the profiles, different to his personal one. Unless he made a fake account. Possibly just was a fan one.

But there was a comment by Watson to a fan about sucking his dick on insta.

His little wizza?

Yep, that’s the winner then.
Disgraceful - there’s plenty of dating apps for that.

He wasn't selected for their final was he? When they desperately needed another forward. Was he injured?

I'd be annoyed too selecting Fantasia & Motlop over him.

And Kennedy being subbed off after making the last minute dash to play after his new baby had just arrived.

Suspended:

Haha, I forgot all about that. Seems like months ago. Maybe he's annoyed they didn't challenge it

I remember they tried to challenge it by bringing up his character and how he came from a cat b with a basketball background lol

Did they throw his challenge out because your head isn't a background.

Suspended wasn’t he?

Edit: what others said.

Along with captain of the Team of the Team and won the coaches award.

I guarantee you that our recruiters will be all over that list.

Is it just me or has there ever been a time whereby the VFL has seemed less relevant than now, as a competition.
It may produce the odd player or two, but as a stand alone product, it’s just common fodder for big brother now.
In fact it’s as Ross would say, “farcial”.
They may as well play the GF at any suburban ground, tbh it’s that prestigious..

It's actually the opposite cause the talent is more thinly spread due to AFL expansion,, 5/6 years ago our recent mature acquisitions would never get a look in.

 

[neilk]

Once upon a time (2010) you had a designated seat for the year. Every H&A game Vic or interstate. $1000.00 + PA
If the Pies made the GF you got the same seat.
Then (2011) same for H&A then got the shittest seats at the MCG, top row of the top tier.

AFL ****ed it up.

Now you have access to a ticket.
Nothing more.

We definitely did not have access to the same seats in 2010 and we were Legends' members.

 

[VinnieB]

It does seem odd.
He kicked 33 goals - only Curnow and McKay kicked more.
The next best was 17.
All jokes aside about his head, there must be something going on behind the scenes.

I think I read somewhere from a Bloos discussion (a week ago) that he wasn’t well liked among the players which is why he hadn’t been re-signed.

 

[Harry O]

Has to be more to the Owies situation than we are being told surely? Why would they get rid of him?

He is not that good
They are tight for list spots
They want to free cap room to target Houston

Our team could do with a home brew

I get hes no superstar but surely you get rid of spuds like Durdin first

 

[Markfs]

I live in Adelaide, Mark. It's a funny old place! I don't know many Collingwood people at all, so I have to make do with whoever comes along!

I've even got a Carlton friend, FWIW!!

we all have to make compromises... i've lived in fremantle for a long time. I've never been able to support south fremantle in the WAFL even though they play down the road. I have made friends with fremantle people, but I never admit to it on BF...and Port people are another level...but i dont judge you...and I suppose port people start looking like actual human beings if you live with them long enough

 

[NMBB]

....and I suppose port people start looking like actual human beings if you live with them long enough

They don't if you just sit near them at the footy.

It's got to be cap space. He isn't that good, but it still makes no sense to me at all as surely he's on pretty much the minimum for a 5 or 6 year player - or however long he's been around. Did they really **** up his last contract?

 

[Markfs]

They don't if you just sit near them at the footy.

yeh it's inappropriate to have them there. I can see how they fit in with the bunnings policy of taking your dogs to the store...but the line has to be drawn somewhere.

Talking about pets......I've heard on social media that they eat them...

 

[Markfs]

Gerard Healy has had another go with his push in the back umpiring.

I have to say that I'm with Gerard with this one. The rule is usually forgotten, except for curious times when a player is jumped on. Players push opponents out in marking contests and everyone ignores it.

I know this rule is hard to adjudicate. There are times when the player behind needs to stop the player in front from pushing back onto them....but what is happening now is completely against the rule in the book.

And yet, rucks will get frees for nothing. Players will get frees if their opponents just tug on their jumpers. The whole thing is a mess.

 

[Markfs]

While I'm at it, players should be required to hold marks - to control the ball until it is punched away or until the player hits the ground or their opponent.

Currently, players are dropping marks but umpires are paying them.

 

[Tadpole]

I'm trying to work out how that is possible...

Similar way to how it’s possible to be married to one (24 years and counting).

Exactly. In a backwater like Adelaide, we can’t exactly afford to be too choosy about who we interact with.
