A.F.L. Thread II

[Burgey]

I know Geelong was busted but I never expected that. Monumental pizzling.

 

[vic_orthdox]

An absolute exhibition.

When do you guys play Port? Two teams whose work rate just seems acres in front of anyone else.

 

[dermo]

2 weeks at the scg i believe

 

[Burgey]

Yeah, got the Abletts next week away.

 

[Spikey]

Yeah, got the Abletts next week away.

will be a good opportunity for the swans to pitch to Gary the idea of moving to Sydney

 

[Jono]

Was at the game. Did not expect that.

 

[Burgey]

Cost of living is very high here....

Hadn't realised til I saw them together tonight that, while Franklin is a giant, Tippett is actually taller. Fmd it's a ridiculous forward line atm.

 

[dermo]

tippett is massively underrated by the victorian media as well imo, such a gun

Pretty much because of CW, really. Read the thread, my interest was piqued and took the plunge.

It's kind of a hard sport to get into for the uninitiated, especial when one's used to codes with an offside rule, but one comes away whistling the physicality of the players. Chaps really put in a shift.

&, as with most things, it starts to make more sense after a while. Eurosport 2 up here carries a couple of games and has a magazine type round up weekly.

Gotta appreciate someone tipping a team a day after they won by 110 points.

 

[Burgey]

Typical Liberal. Trying to cash in when the job's already done.

Meanwhile, Melbourne right in this vs Port deep into the third quarter.

 

[howardj]

My Mighty Mighty Lions!

richmond relying on a gws-esque performance from essendon.

[Spikey]

[Spikey]

in the battle between the alleged dopers and the alleged finals team, the alleged dopers have raced out to a big lead. the alleged dopers well be on a real high as they walk into the sheds

Guy is a massive unit and mobile

Assuming that he, Goodes and Buddy can stay on the field, this must be one of the greatest ever forward lines
