That's it for round 17 gents.

 

A few picked 7 but the Picnic bars this week go to Scea who picked  8.

Well done Big Fella.

 

Until next time.

Dew is gone.

Thought they could of given him till end of the year.

There run home is not to bad.

Looking from the outside,the non selection of a few players along with the heavy defeats has done the deal.

It's a hard one when they get smashed in centre clearance and you have your best draft picks in there.

I think the mid-season sacking is because they're into Hardwick.

 

Hardwick and Dimma are good mates.

I imagine Dimma wouldn't talk to GC whilst Dew was still there.

 

GC were expected to play finals and have gone backwards again.

 

Would prefer to see the AFL get rid of them but that won't happen.

What round is it this week.

I must say the Kangas looked good in their stripe last week..

C'mon Clarcko get back to what you signed up for,

Its round 18 almost over.......thank god...im still on anti depressants....since the Cats game, i be needing a double dose after this weekend......there toooo fast around the forward line for us if they butcher the ball around the middle...

 

We could get Dew cheap now.....well he did steady the ship up there...

 

Clarko hired Ratten say hello to a sinking ship...ho and your man whats his name got into trouble again, the big fella....name escapes me now, you know the one who beat up an umpire at his kids game...didnt get a conviction recorded so he could be on North board, would have cost him a lot...anyway he kinda umm run over is not quite right or sideswiped isnt right either, lets say made a bike rider run off the road while changing lanes in his tree lopping business truck.....Ho officer i didnt see the man said her, copped a small fine and sent on his merry way....the guy has impunity hey...

[AlexRRR]

Big news from the MCG, Grundy has been omitted, means dropped.....selling cheap with Pies picking up 200,000 of his wage Fj, we can do a package deal for you, Grundy and Spargo.....

 

No show for Oli by the way...

With all my commenting on here i forgot to put my tip in.????

Grundy would be nice for us with Goldy getting on and i don't see what others do in Xerri for a ruckman.

What we need is a gun centre half forward.

I would be chasing Tom DeKoning from Carlton.

Toby Green is my dream man in dark blue and red yoke...Spargo Picket Chandler can all go take a hike...dont fret, only 3 picked Swans 2 were Swans supporters the third we are not going to catch...

Tell me you didn't turn the telly off in the 3/4 quarter Alex.????

Two cracking games to start the round off.

 

Brisbane pretty much threw that game away.

Only really needed one more goal after Daniher's put them 23 points up.

 

They then decided to play safe and just kept going up the line.

Then it looked as if they panicked and just tried to save it.

hahaha you were reading my mind......actually yesterday got real busy in the end didnt get home till  late and didnt sneak a look at the scores.

 

Sat down this late morning to watch and yeah during that third 50 years of nothingness overcame me...poping more tranquillisers enough to put a hippo to sleep for 100 years....thought do i really need to endure this? So i peaked a look at the app.....well, fell over the line by a point...can you belive?

 

So heartend i watched out the game, but i keept thinking...did i really read the final score right...you know Melbourne....run it down to the wire...

[Will27]

Well Gents

That's it for another round.

 

Three picked 7 but this week's Dairy Milk goes to Rip Stanley for being closest to the margin.

 

Until next week.

Its a bad year for Fj, the little Aussie bleeder in bazza gets convicted as a pedo, there coach goes into hiding, the tree lopper former player and board  member runs a bike rider off the road now Thomas avoids conviction for revenge porn...so how do you avoid conviction when found guilty? ahh i play for a AFL footy club....

 

With all this luck you will win a game before the end of the season...

What's that old saying,if we didn't have bad luck we wouldn't have any at all.????

Can't see us winning again this year,looks like their going mix and match to play the squad and see who is worth keeping.

 

 

[Will27]

What do we think of the proposed wildcard being introduced?

 

I don't like it.

IMO, if you're not good enough to finish in the top half of the table, you shouldn't be playing finals.

 

Most of the people pushing it have a vested interest as it means more games and dollars for the broadcasters and the AFL.

 

It's a no from me.

An old Cream song.....Eric Clapton Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker, dont think it was an original though..great live...its always darkest before the dawn....we had 50 ys of it...well a couple of 7 year periods in-between that were a 20 w globe........its been so long you dont get to appreciate when you actually start winning again...

7th and 8th are effectivly wildcard slots...like they dont go anywhere unless your the Demons who charge up then get crushed in the GF, to be true we came from 5th then...hahah which had been created as a wildcard slot 10 ys previous.

 

Honestly the AFL are clutching at straws, only the Crows in the modern era won a flag from below 4th so im with you uncle, in the NFL only the Raiders won a superbowl from wildcard, think there the only team to make the super bowl from wildcard to begin with...

 

I use to rant on here long ago about creating more winners but wild card is not the way to go...you finnish 9th your going out first round..

 

Rather how about a play off for the teams finnishing 9th to 14th, and call it wild wills cup or something, get better games there than a 9th team getting plummetted by Port or Pies...sim sala bin laden....

[AlexRRR]

Hot off the press...a few Dee's going west at end off season.....Maxie baby 32 in Dec along with Neal-Bullen, Spargo and Chandler for the prized Eagles first round pic...what a barging no?

 

Pies supporters getting up to no good again yesterday....chubby Roilii in the middle of it again, of course they didnt see the man handling of the fat man prior to it hey? one slap and your phone lights up....

 

We are not talking about the free that was but never paid to Pepper Powel on the 50m arch in the last that was run down for goal...no were not talking about that are we...Pies got lucky.....Anyway Pies are a very good disciplined team but really dont have that magical player/s that teams have to win a flag, yes yes you could argue one of the Dacois and that jailbird mid are like i said you could argue but not with me...man them up and peel off them is the recipe all who have beaten them or run them close have done, 

 

Words of encouragement for illustrious posters Fj and Willie,  it always looks like doom and gloom before the dawn, who was it? talked about a clean out for some other club...well i dont buy into that as i seen what it did to us, but hanging onto your ageing list didnt work for the Eagles either....but i just recon there will be some bounce back next season by them...thanks to big max being there....We will sell you Bennie Brown back Fj, a second round pick should do it...

 

I did say Freo would not make the finals this year....did say the Blues would be in...and Port....miss out on the Suns so 1 out of 2 aint bad wish my tipping was as good...

 

Nervous game for us today, i feel a little better as its at the G, Crows know how to beat us and we are travling like a 1946 bus...big motor that sometimes lacks power...

Tremendous work again Uncle Alex

[Will27]

That's it for Round 19 Trend Setters.

 

Rip and Chooka both picked the card.

Well done boys.

 

The Twix bars go to Rip for being closest to the margin.

That's back to back wins for Rip now.

 

Until next week.

I hope the club ignores those pricks in the media who want blood and stick fat with Simmo.

No one will do better with our injury list.

 

Hurn, Shuey and Nic Nat will all retire.

Another 7 or 8 will be cut and we will hit the draft again.

 

St Kilda and Norf game only got 18 000 last weekend and the Saints are in the 8.

Pretty sure you lose money at Marvel with that crowd size.

Nothing said in the media though.

 

Just keep kicking a dog when it's down you cnuts.
