Game Day Round 24 vs. Melbourne, MCG, 7:40pm Friday 23/08

[IlovethePies]

Ed Allan needs to be part of our starting midfield next season.

Agree, he has been really impressive tonight.

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Fly in the rooms probably giving an intense session on how to turn this 8 goal win into a 2 goal win.

 

[jjsmitty8]

Just give Nick his 3 votes and call it a night.

 

[LuckyLee]

Pendlebury signed on
Howe is going around again
Sidebottom allegedly going around again
Don’t think Crisp is going anywhere
Cox has one more year on his contract
I doubt Mihocek is going anywhere
Elliott hasn’t indicated he’s looking to retire

Feel free to point out why you think the above won’t be regularly selected next year

Surely if Elliott was retiring, it would have been announced already so that the fans can celebrate his final game in fitting style?

How has Ned Long been given five consecutive games ahead of Allan? He could have had a real run at it and be ready to charge into 2025.

I liked that we waited for Allan to have a block of vfl form behind him before giving him another run. Also like that we’re not playing him on a wing this time.

 

[HFF]

Bytel yes. But not Long his grunt will be very valuable.

He doesn’t suit our style for me. I just don’t see it

 

[black is White]

I’m not overly enthused about our prospects in 2025 given we look to be repeating our 2024 selection policy

But maybe less injuries at least gets us an extra win or two

You have to be kidding me!! Thanks for the laugh mate when we make finals next year easily we will all be waiting your reply

Which one of these blokes don’t deserve to be picked?
They are still playing football that is good enough.
Are you aware we have no decent picks in the draft?

 

[CasuallyDressed]

They should send Fritzch out into the lightning holding an umbrella.
New hairstyle

Go and collect Matt Owies and send him out there

 

[Axl the great]

How soft has the afl become, in the old days you’d play through lightning and if someone got hit, send flowers to their mum and move on.

My uncle played and was smashed so hard he couldn’t stand up, went to the bench, came back vomited 5 times, threw up a lung then a blood clot.
He then got polaxed again, shoulder came out, put back in and went on to kick 8 and have 45.
Real men back then I tells ya.

 

[Axl the great]

Go and collect Matt Owies and send him out there

I’m sure we could sneak Papley under there too

 

[WakeUpPies]

This bloody season just won’t end!

 

[Bramax]

At what point to channel 7 realize that they are employing bias employee’s?
Some of the Luke Hodge comments tonight have been disgusting!

Yeah but I liked the one where he said the Pies will contend again next season.

 

[MagpieJoel]

Kosi 10 weeks.

Yeah down at the G there was one strike visible, play continued for about 5-10 mins.

Hasn't been a single visible strike since and game gets postponed lol wat

Uh…what?

We end on “13 wins” year and will miss the 8 by percentage.

“An extra win or two” would get us into finals.

What are you taking about

So just because we make finals next year we just win the flag too? I tipped us to finish top 4 this year and Giants for the flag and had similar reactions to yours about that too

Yet here we are out of the 8 and Giants on 7 in a row right now

That’s exactly why I believe Elliott is playing on.

I’m not sure what you’re trying to say here

What do our draft picks have to do with our selection policy?

I guess I rate some of our VFL kids a little more than the majority here?

 

[GreekLunatic]

what does Carlton have to lose so we can pass them on percentage

 

[IlovethePies]

17 minutes in the game are left.
They can't cancel the game.
Anything can happen after a hiatus (precedent: Melbourne vs Brisbane at the Gabba. After the lights went out, game was stopped. When both teams took the field, Melbourne almost stole the game from - I think - about 40 points behind)

contributed to his own concussion says the ****wit with glasses (Lewis).

Only one player played the ball you moron.

Likewise, I’m just past Mickleham, it’s horrendous!

Yeah, just like his other ***wit mate with initials LH.
