Every league needs a clown.

I thought that was the Scum

 

[CasuallyDressed]

I thought that was the Scum

Every league needs two clowns.

 

[Soaring Magpie]

First game ticked off, 4 more to go this weekend

 

[No SPIN]

And we are old.

So are Geel

 

[JuniorB]

Another year of irrelevance for the bummers!

 

[anshell]

Essendon are so bad.How on earth did we only get two points from our two games with them this year?

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

What about the Dees?

The 3 stooges.

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Essendon are so bad.How on earth did we only get two points from our two games with them this year?

So bloody frustrating.

We just know every team plays out of their skin when they play us.

 

[JuniorB]

So bloody frustrating.

We just know every team plays out of their skin when they play us.

At least we got 8 points off the scum, so the year hasn't been totally wasted.

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Did he move at all tonight?

Goldstein and McKay left North to play finals.

I am amused.

an interesting stat brought up by the commentators, in the last 56 years the only finals they’ve won have been under sheedy. Granted he coached for 300 years but still.

The best stat I've heard about the Bombers is their last win via a game-winning goal after the siren, was in 1913 !

Almost as good them being the team to have lost the last three games to be decided by goals after the siren.

My heart cries for Brad Scott. Fine fellow, along w' Chris.

 

[NMBB]

It’s a home ground thing

Careful - the AFL is considering re-introducing 'Behavioural Compliance Officers' who will have the power to enter the home of people like you and deliver a very stern warning.

 

[NMBB]

And 4 (so far) off Melbourne (cue - puke)

 

[jathanas]

An uplifting excerpt from the Dons autopsy thread.

"
...
Anyone else at give up point - be it with the team, the club, or the sport in general?

I’ve thought I’ve been there for a while - but I watch these games with no emotion. Theres just no enjoyment to be had.

We either don’t show up at all (see St Kilda game) or we do genuinely try but just our style, skills, ability looks embarrassing, and teams when they want to try just laugh at us.

Theres only so long you can give as a supporter. To those that say “You’re not a true fan if that’s your belief” id ease up. We have been incredibly loyal. I’d argue more loyal than anyone else. But there’s a limit. Theres more important things in life.

Even Nth had us by the googlies most of that match

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Even Nth had us by the googles most of that match

Maybe it's because we bring a finals atmosphere to all our games?

For some of them it's the closest they may ever get

But it's more likely because they hate us so much ..

A few late night thoughts..

1) Don’t miss Tay Adams one bit. Like thanks for your service, but watching him in another team’s guernsey really helps you take the blinders off. He’s horrendous.

2) Always have and always will be a BG4 fan, but Darcy Cameron

Does Adams even make their finals team?

 

[Big Bryza]

My problem is the person who’s second in our tipping comp picked the Bombers whilst I went Sydney so really need Sydney to win so I avoid doing a Carlton…

But it’s quite amazing just how bad Brodie Grundy is at reading the ball in the air, soo many over his head.

Grundy and Adams both look cooked.

Sydney are the worst top of the ladder side in 25 years.

 

[Anzacday]

Watching Adams shank that shot at goal I was able to see what opposition supporters see.
