VFL Round 2 - Collingwood vs Port Melbourne at Olympic Park Oval (Pies lost 47-63 #BoroughIrkedUs)

[Apex36]

I’m here. It’s freezing. It’s wet.

AND THE GLASSHOUSE IS CLOSED TO MEMBERS, WITH A NON FOOTY FUNCTION ON!

You can tell I’m pissed off. Other members here are also ropeable.

In fairness to the club, the game was moved from Port at the last minute, so it’s not like they organized the function on a planned home game (not that it would stop them even if it was...)

So I've just arrived.
At what point does dedication turn into madness. I think after all these years today I might of reached that point.

I think you are Mad to go today.

First goal of the game to Wills. Fasolo has a couple of behinds. 8-0.

 

[Mkcaptain]

Us fair weather fans (in the literal sense of the phrase) thank you brave souls for subjecting yourselves to such horrid conditions at ground completely unsuited for them.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Are they seriously coming off for the weather? WTF!

It looks like again the club are going to snub the VFL in the form of any sort of coverage. Last season was a disgrace and this year hasn’t started well.
I’ve tried to contact them numerous times but all correspondence has been ignored by the club.

Borthwick bounces our third through from outside 50 as the siren sounds. Bit of a pause in celebrations as the ump blew his whistle, goal is paid.

Old fashioned wet weather scrap. Will be difficult to take much away from the game. Wells looks a class above on the few times he’s had it, McLarty good especially when placed behind the play.

To be fair, it was a very late fixture change.

But also to be fair, the root cause of this problem is that they haven’t provided any shelter at the Holden Centre.

"Travel all over the countryside, ask the Leylands ask the Leylands, f*%&ck it up in a four wheel drive, ask the Leyland Brothers!!!"

Nearly ever episode they where either bogged or broken down.

Given the cold and wet weather I wouldn't be expecting any extraordinary games demanding selection today.

People Mad going to game Today

 

[CFC2010]

Vicky Park you still there?

 

[Quicky]

To the brave souls at the game i'm keen to get your thoughts on Fasolo's defensive game.

 

[Smoky]

Why isnt it at Vic Park?

 

[barrackers]

More umpiring brilliance (free and 50) sees port get their second.

 

[CFC2010]

Lisle again
