Round 15 Discussion (Dedicated to Better Loosen Up)

[Kadog]

Thats ur choice. No one forcing u to do it.

U want equality. Start with having the gf played at home ground of the team that finishes highest. Then we can discuss the rest.

I just want them to be competent in what they enforce.

I dunno where you’re going with the GF point. So you’d potentially like to see the GF played at Spotless Stadium or Kardinia Park? You’ve lost me now.

What swings and roundabouts?

It’s a FN farce. They’ve continually ballsed up goal reviews despite intense scrutiny. They don’t even know when/how to review. Then there’s the grainy (vhs style) pictures. Is this FN 1983?

What happened to the ‘new’ snicko technology for post reviews? Haven’t seen it used.

Tribunal inconsistencies. You can elbow campaigners in the head Ablett style. You can claim Tourette’s for an ‘unintentional’ headbutt and get off, Better Call Saul style. Pinching and Plastic chairs are a no no though.

Security. We need these campaigners patrolling and getting in your face shooshing everyone up because ya know, the AFL are pandering to the PC brigade. Kicking supporters out the ground for minor foul language. “Green maggot” “Bald flog”. Are you FN serious?! The campaigners even lied about the supporter running across two bays to allegedly yell abuse. Get dafaq outta here.

Umpiring in general. FN horrible. Getting worse every year.

Game time scheduling ✔

Swings and roundabouts my koito.

Do you even know what that means?

They benefitted against us, they were at the receiving end tonight.

Hence "swings and roundabouts".

Doesn't mean it's not a farce.

 

[Kadog]

You want things to be fair do u not?

I want them to implement a proper goal review procedure. Proper angles and a thorough review. Much like the cricket.

I want them to leave the FN fans alone and just enjoy themselves at a game.

I want the tribunal to be consistent and abide by their laws.

I want the AFL to competent in how they run their business, which is football. NOT political correctness.

I want COLLINGWOOD to win the GF

at the MCG.

My comment was, “The AFL are an absolute shambles in all facets of the game. The worst I can recall”.

It had nothing to do with ‘swings n roundabouts’. I’m talking about total farce. All facets.

 

[Benno_900]

One more game please . Then he can **** off to the NEAFL.

I am 20k short of Whitfield as it stands. Unless Duursma can pull a 130 out of his arse this week.

Thats all fine. But all im saying is if you want good umpiring etc etc its all ultimately to get a fair or just result. Whilst the fixture being so uneven and mcg contract we dont get that even if the game is umpired perfectly.

 

[Better Loosen Up]

Hi People.. anyone know the last Supercoach round before finals.. I'm down to 10 trades I so need to budget.

Down 10 trades and needs to budget.......

What a terrible situation to be in

Crippa out... well, it seems the SC Gods are just willing me to bring in Sloane.



So let it be written! Worpel > Sloane.

This is what it looked like when I did a test and reversed prior to lockout (why the E was on Cripps)

Dat bench depth! Do I dare - certainly one way to gain on the 70 people ranked ahead of me!

Too much bench depth... you need a loop player in there if you're going to have a premo sitting on the bench. Get rid of Anooswerth for a 102k swinging no hoper

Very similar to my mids, bringing in Sloane with Crippa out. Was originally planning on Laird in to finish DEF, but with a Cripps out, surely finish the mids first to gain those positions!

 

[Bollox]

That little shit Garner from North nearly cost us an out. Quiet beer at the Sheaf and apparently got a bit punchy.
Heeney didn't get involved luckily enough.
Bloody Mexicans.

Never too much bench depth coming into this time of year when injuries hit - especially when you can get a leg up over others in the Top 70 that may have to cover Cripps with a rookie such as Clarke/Setters etc.

Also, on a normal full-strength week, Gray would be my roaming DPP EMG up forward (can switch with Setters and loop with Young).

Very nice! Haha I originally intended on going Duurs > Laird as well, funnily enough! Where are you ranked?

 

[Caztheconquerer]

2/230 only jelly and Williams tonight, had Clarke as emergency for Cripps will roll the dice on bewley now or Baker. Pretty good start

 

[Gilly90]

Still tossing up whether to trade out Duurs or Hore to be honest, Hore looks set to lose more $, but on the flip has more upside and gives me a loop option if he goes poorly with Logue, whereas Duurs doesn't offer that. Did you consider Bont over Sloane?

I also have Owies as that MID/FWD swinging no hoper for Gray.

Sitting around 550 at the moment, slowly climbing up every week.

The system has an imbalance (like fixtures etc) that creates an unfair platform, granted, but that’s entirely a different conversation to what I was pointing out.

The AFL can and should control what is within that system, instead they create further states of confusion because they’re a bunch of incompetent farqs who have lost total grip on the state of affairs with the game and it’s fans.

-Crowds are confused on how to behave
-Confusion on tribunal hearings. The constant message is protect the head yet campaigners elbow, headbutt and get off.
-Fans/media are continually confused on umpiring and their inconsistent application of the rules of the game.
-Umpires themselves are confused on how/when to apply and adjudicate.
-Goal reviews have created even more confusion and controversy when it was supposed to do the opposite.

It all used to be so much more simpler watching from the stands. You knew when a free kick was a free kick. You knew what was a reportable incident AND how many weeks someone would cop for it! before it even went to tribunal. A score was umpires call and everyone moved on. Umpires had better football nous. They didn’t talk to or treat players like school children. I could go on and on but I’ll quit coz I’m sick of hearing my own voice on the matter. That’s all I’ll say about that.

 

[enobrien]

TIL Kadog speaks when he types

 

[Tso1967]

Just noticed Clarke up 5pts to 63 (will take it now)

3/258

 

[SavDog23]

370/4. Sh1te.

Projected score has dropped 90 points after 1 match
**** this game.

 

[Hawkboy62]

How long is it going to take the Giants to realise that Cameron is a dud coach?

They probably want Hinkley, but he is still contracted!

 

[gutsroy]

When you’ve 12 trades still and only 3 upgrades it is

Some great value to be had.
You’re one out, one back there.
Good stuff

Big Hatefault had very low TOG, Bewley-esque.
I have every faith that Sir Leon of the Non-Preferred will factor that in in his review.
Or just give him the arse for a seventy two year old with bandy legs no prick’s ever heard of for a laugh.

191/2

Mediocre, but low-key glad Cripps is out, just means I play Heeney

Same. I'll be playing Worpel on-field for Cripps. It's a huge advantage for teams with a "spare" premo-ish M/F over those with Hately/Clarke as cover. So long as our spare can take advantage and not spud up.

 

[Andrew Birch]

Will be out next week too .....at this stage of the year, it's not about cash generation

True. I could have made 160k by downgrading Gibbo to Hately, but Gibbo's JS and still low b/e means I might be able to upgrade him to someone like Hanners next week instead. If he can manage to stay on the park should score better than Clarke/Hately @M9 and might even be able to loop some of his scores. More importantly, I only use one trade instead of two which is a big deal when you only have 4 left.

Wow woke up to a decent last quarter recovery from Parish.... Still too little, too late you Britney Spears looking campaigner
