Game Day Rnd 22 - Carlton v Port Game Day Discussion

[mediumsizered]

I suggest you read the transcripts of the recent Essendon-Hird court hearings to find out the facts as they are currently known. BTW I'm a 40+ years Blues fan and 20+ year Blues member so your suggestion I am an Essendon supporter seems very ridiculous. And while I'm a passionate fan I will continue to take exception to, like tonight, no-pressure, lame performances. Our new club Chairman indicated he understood why many fans were very disappointed in where we've been as a team in recent seasons........was he wrong?

The thing is most of us are disappointed with our lack of recent success however most of us aren't going to kick our club while it is down & most of us will give credit where it is due. Some though won't acknowledge any positives & only seek the negative. There are forums for those people e.g. the Main Board, Bay 13, where they can enjoy ranting with like-minded posters.

8 minutes

Will seem like 8 days

 

[PuffDragon89]

Why are we not having a shot on goal from 40m out? Twice in 20sec.

 

[thylacine60]

How much longer do I have to sit here?

2018. Pretty sure.....

 

[BlueBelle]

What if Sydney or Hawthorn were at their best too?

Port would've outrun them

 

[SE_Blue]

It's okay Jab, I'm coming out of retirement for next week, expect a visit to the tribunal on Monday night though.

With our recent love for the Irish players, I'm willing to put my hand up for selection - having played extremely amateur Gaelic football at Keysborough should hopefully qualify me.

 

[Silvagnis]

Commetti thinks this might be a timely reality check. Flogs such as Commetti, Wallace, etc. are as fickle as some of our supporters. Jump on then jump off. Good money in it.

AFL website even mentioned Mick's presser.

Hope White is OK.

The umpires are poor because they're amateurs and can't help but being influenced by the crowd.

 

[JamisonRun40]

MEB seven minutes to go.

 

[BlueBelle]

Confidence is down

 

[athensblue]

according to WC Bell could be on the outer.

Where is the WC?

you don't like his misses Wayne?

 

[95blues]

I wish we left yarran forward all the time.

 

[thylacine60]

Reckon Holman might remember his first game?

Do you accept that our inconsistency has been a constant in the past 5 or 6 seasons? We've looked a million dollars for a month and then gone missing like tonight.

 

[HBF]

Thank god for Rowe tonight.

 

[Snoozer]

The thing is Snoozer only turns up when things are going bad. You won't see him in here acknowledging very good performances against North, Freo, Geelong, Gold Coast. He just likes to kick us when we are down. That doesn't indicate he is a fan. Anyone who wants to kick us when we are down, deserves nothing but contempt.

LOL... I'm not really kicking the team at all. I said we're no good. We're not.

I critiqued Murphy and Judd for being pantsed in the first half. They were.

The late season 'revival' (of sorts) is fools gold.

What I'm really kicking is posters like you, who seemingly spend their whole lives glued to bigfooty like shite to a blanket. You're the reason that football people don't respect this forum, and why a lot of supporters steer clear of it. You have no capability of objectivity.

 

[bluebird101]

Not wrong. It should be a beauty.

Might be the highlight of our night, just something good to get us thru the weekend after this train wreck.

Happy to help pay the fines, got a list of names for you ....

 

[LordLucifer]

Reckon Holman might remember his first game?

Yeah, he will be asking if he still can have a Gatorade shower.

 

[HBF]

I wish we left yarran forward all the time.

And he's on one leg.

I think I might tape it. Wonder if the club talked to Mick this week after his dismissive interaction with Stevo last week.

Anyone in a black & red jumper will be a starting point.

 

[athensblue]

Yaz looks a bit sore now that he's only on two legs.

great goal

Then why are you here?

You're more like the arrogant campaigners who have been banned because they think they're objective.

 

[T2B_]

Harley you deadset flog. Yarran hasn't struggled as much as a lot of our players and he's on one damn leg!

 

[JuddsABlue]

We like Yarren on D50 because he's so damaging carrying the ball through the middle, but he's easily exposed the other way which makes Mick angry which is bad for Yarren
