West coast fans around the boards are ****ing mental, most seem to believe they’re like a 5 year rebuild away from contending again.


Will take ages to clean this stench of crap from the club

 

[TeeKray]

Big fan of Pickett just playing to his hearts content while being charged with multiple burgularies.

The notion of 'innocent until proven guilty' is so misunderstood. If that were the case in its purest sense then remand wouldn't exist, bail conditions wouldn't exist, etc. If you've been charged with a serious offence then of course you have a right to your day in court where you are presumed innocent but that does not mean there isn't a strong suspicion that you in fact did do it. It's really dodgy that Pickett just continues playing as though nothing has happened.

Not to mention how it’s applied differently to clubs.

Applied differently to clubs and offences.

Anything to do with women or drugs must be punished by the league (with or without a court finding) but aggravated burglary yeah no worries mate go for your life.

Geez Richmond will take a couple of goal lead in ht.They really needed a Wet Toast pounding.Like other sides have done against them.% so important to the Tiger's.

Can they apologise it down to one (if their inevitable appeal fails)?

 

[Brian McGee]

They will challenge the impact and get it down to low for 1 week.

 

[Capital Power]

From AFL.com. Is there no end to the leg-ups that the "big Vic" clubs get on the way to their fairytale?

 

[Grave Danger]

What was the misconduct one with Idun in the 4th quarter? He obviously hadn't cooled down since his earlier brain fart.

 

[_VXV]

Lot of sooking on the norf board

 

[Portmagpies36]

Got to give it to the cows, when it comes to recruiting complete twats they are head and shoulders above any other club.

They have a draw, so % not very relevant. Unless they have another draw, which is unlikely.

Edit : Carlton in similar situation, so maybe it matters a bit.

as good as confirmed the struggling Kangaroos would ask the AFL for help again this off-season after his team slumped to a demoralising loss against Hawthorn on Sunday that put the Roos at risk of claiming another wooden spoon this season.

 

[JimmyBC]

Weird optics with Clarko at the under 18's.

 

[philthy05]

Lol how would norf finish last? West coast would need to win 2 games more than norf (so probably 2 games lol)

With only 5 games left that’s extremely unlikely.


Also **** north.

They’ve had enough handouts just fold them already rather than pissing more talent up the wall by forcing them to go to that shithole

 

[JimmyBC]

The sack Simpson crew want 100 point thrashings this won't do.

There now saying Tasmania 2030.
Norf the logical Tassie relocation.

The Eagles are becoming more competitive at home. They should beat North in two weeks. They'd be outsiders but you wouldn't give them no shot at a late season home win against Freo or the Crows. It's still a live possibility that North finish last I reckon.

 

[Coobk001]

This is the sort of stat that confirms the fears I have personally.
