A.F.L. Thread II

Would be such a Demons thing to do to lose to Carlton.

Man, that's some ridiculous stuff.

Come on my boy Tom Boyd. Everyone talking about Mumford like Boyd didn't break even with him last year in the Prelim.

Vale Lou Richards. What a huge part of the game of footy in Vic he has been.

Having a pretty ordinary stint the poor bloke. Hope it all works out, sounds like it's being nipped in the bud quite early.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Nothing worse than having to listen to Mark McClure when you're side isn't going that well.

 

[Spikey]

bloody hell that goal

 

[vic_orthdox]

Thought our first quarter was unsustainable in terms of effort.

Bloody hell, that second quarter... Bullies actually did well to stem the tide after we'd kicked four quick ones and kept themselves in the game. If the match returns to how it was flowing in the first quarter, they Dogs will get us.

Anyone think Richmond might beat GWS today. I've got a feeling.

 

[vic_orthdox]

I don't like backing teams with as many changes as the Tigers made.

 

[Red]

God Richmond are a frustrating team to follow:

We beat Carlton, Coll, BL and Melb, (as you'd expect).

We got beaten soundly by Adel (who are the best team in the league IMO)

But we so narrowly lost against GWS, WB and Freo (who are all really good teams)

Could so easily be 8 and 1 but as it stands we are mid table. We cannot close games for some reason.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Melb, (as you'd expect).

lol

 

[Spikey]

Man, torn between wanting Melbourne to lose, because it's good for Essendon, or wanting North Melbourne to lose, because it's good for society

 

[superkingdave]

Hard to believe I went to Australia in 2007 and North haven't lost to the Dees since then. Thought this might be the game.

 

[vic_orthdox]

This is like watching Gibson having to play on Hawkins or Podsiadly back in our streak of wins against the Hawks.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Bloody hell, Gold Coast finally start heading forward on the field, and Harbrow happens.

 

[Burgey]

Literally just ran into Pav at Chin Chin. That or he flat out has a doppelgänger.

 

[vic_orthdox]

In Melbourne? He commentated yesterday at the G, so a fair chance.

I want to die
