Mega Thread Non-Freo AFL Discussion 2024

[King Huskii]

How he gets Eagles games. Grew up barracking for the WCE and practising bouncing the ball at recess and lunch.

He's a flog

 

[DeanS]

Eagles have finally clicked. Took a while but they will be competitive throughout now.

Relentless pressure acts and playing without restrictions. Will be scored against heavily though.

This aged well.

Ahhhhhhh Carlton and West coast lose... Freo win.

Perfect

Add to that the mighty Bulldogs beat the Falcons in Joondalup. Footy life is complete.

Go Souths

 

[mike91]

Scoreboard not showing it, but hawthorn have shown poor skills and zero composure early

Joondalup is basically our 2nd home. We usually win up there.

Afl love child swans being protected by the umpires again

 

[Spirit Level]

So West Coast are now doing what we used to do and hinging their entire season on getting a derby win

I guess that's a sign of respect?

 

[Harry Reems]

Geeze, I’m glad Tyler Brockman chose the Wiggles over us. He’s putrid!!!

 

[ilikepotatoes]

Not a great passage of play from the Hawks here.

How long until Mitchell is under heat for now putrid the Hawks have been underneath him.

Don't think we pursued him that hard if at all..

Good smothers
Hardwick

That is it, other than that the Hawks showed absolutely zilch

Add in the umpires fan boying the swans and this is terrible viewing

 

[freo1997]

Offered 4 years.

 

[malpaso]

Offered 4 years.

Where and who said that?

 

[pK75]

Where and who said that?

Everyone in trade week, it was after the Schultz bombshell though, so a complete afterthought and. colon young had already signed the paperwork with the weagles.

 

[MadMac]

Lol, that wasn’t a free kick

 

[Superkoops]

They were without Tom Barrass and Lovechild and down by 3 goals midway through the last. I’d say they went ok and will surprise a few sides at home provided health wise they hold up.

With all the hype about Harley Reid, being the best number one draft selection since the inception, I wonder how many remember a kid called Matt Rowell

from the Suns. In 2020, his first year, he played 5 games. In those five games he polled 9 Brownlow votes. In his fifth game, he blew a knee and was out for a season.
Makes you wonder if he shouldn't be the number 1 number 1.

Nah that's the incorrect sh*t Yank name for it

 

[gaskin]

Not watching the Hawks/Swans game but looking at the stats it seems like Meek is having a decent game.

It’s technically correct with a huge asterisk.

Soccer as a name is a shortening of the aSOCCiation bit of association football (typo for effect) afaik and the origin is British from memory

Either way it’s still football - whether soccie football or otherwise

It’s all contextual. Footy for me is Aussie rules and football is world game/round ball/association football

Collingwood drew as well.

He's been pretty decent this season from what I've seen

 

[estibador]

Hawthorn getting smashed is a nice bit of icing on a pretty good weekend footy cake.
