Oppo Camp Other Games Rolling Thread 2024 Edition

I’m going. I have a ticket on the bottom level in the MCC Members, near the race. Not sure yet which team’s race. An interesting location for a GF.

Enjoy. I think the weather forecast is good.

For no real reason I think Brisbane will win but won't be watching.

Does someone have a spare ticket to the Grand Final, never been before. Keen to go.
I want to see everyone's reaction around me in my 2023 premiership merchandise as I cheer on the umpires.

I'm going to the grand final parade to strut around in my premiers 2023 jumper.

I could cheer the goal and boundary umpires - they're just a dad filling in, aren't they - but nah to the field umpires

My god, have you people forgot the 2023 PF. The one where the cheating “refs” helped them win, when we should have played the cats in the GF and won that one?
Have you all forgotten that prick Longmire laughing at Fly when he made the comment about home ground decisions going Sydney’s way in our last H&A game?
What about their arseh*** president, completely bagging Eddie for calling out the COLA allowances that he wanted to keep.
Or saying they have the most supporters in that AFL.
Or when they decided to offer a “contract” to a rookie that was on speed, that they were going to delist so we would have to trade for him.. Sam Murray.
Or that Tatay was approached to join them, not for his footy, but Collingwood IP?
Or their Academies that they FIERCELY want to keep, because of the huge advantage they get.
Or for the funds they drained from the VFL for the first 20 years after relocating.
They are only one rung below Carlton in the Hate ladder.

Brisbane gave us Crisp
We have Fly and Leppa.
We beat them last year, and they were so gracious in defeat.
Fages is ok.
Jack Frost didn’t get skin cancer when he left us and played a season there.. they looked after him ok.
Yes, they beat us in 2 GF’s, but we were no hope in one of those, and the Goal umpire was the cheat that day in the other.

No comparison! Sydeneeey can GAGF!!

Fcukin bang!!!

Well said.

Imagine your own team mate putting you into AFL concussion protocols the week before the Grand Final and your team wins

Only if gulden didn't kick that goal, it could have been us there again.

Would have got to finals. But how far in finals could we have gotten without jordy, mitchell, mihocek?
I think its a blessing in disguise not making finals.

I agree. Would we rather just miss out, or make the finals but end up with a Carlton style embarrassment.

I think it will just make them hungrier next year. This year was a big learning curve..(along with all the injuries )

More than happy to do a Richmond. Flag, miss, B2B. But not go down the gurgler like Tigers have since

They are now paying the price for their 3 flags in 4 years.
We would take that as well, but not with the aftermath.
Recruiting Hopper and Taranto was a big mistake.

For three flags in four years I would definitely take the aftermath — no hesitation.

Their older supporters have seen 8 flags.....

Exactly — success comes around eventually, unless you are St. Kilda (and hopefully Carlton).

[ElliottsMaggies]

Wise decision.

Although I was hoping they'd pick him & he wasn't 100%

Yeah the risk would be too great given its only been 2 weeks
No matter if he felt he was right.

That's why I was hoping they'd select him..

They did get to enjoy a 36 year drought.

I think we enjoyed it more than they did

expected to keep his spot in the side for the GF, does Checkes don a swans jumper and support his mate, just like Fox did in last years's GF?

Only if he wants to be traded.

He can stand next to Fly & Leppa in their Lions jumpers..

I think his friendship with Fox overrides fly lol
