Oppo Camp Non Geelong football (AFL) discussion 2024, Part I

[catters_28]

Flu?

Early stages of either that or covid I reckon

 

[Strange Cat]

Thank * I’m not a Norf supporter

 

[Cataholic]

Damn.

They reckon this year's flu is a bad one, and Covid knocked me flat. The fatigue was debilitating.....

Hope you get better quick, and today's game cheers you up some.

 

[Strange Cat]

Dogs struggling

Not shocked at all

This from during the week:



3. Collingwood
"Collingwood might be 10th on the ladder, but they’re the third best team in the comp in my opinion."

4. Brisbane
"Yes, they are outside the eight, but I think they’ve got a great list and they are still the fourth-best placed team to win the flag this year, even though a lot have written them off because they won’t finish in the top four."


No reason given for us in 7th - wonder if Dwayne changes things up after this weekend

 

[Strange Cat]

Going to be an interesting finish in this game

Another draw cats_09 ?

Brisbane are going to be extremely lucky to even make the 8 imo

Interesting. Ever since I started watching the Doggies vs Freo game I've seen much more of Luke Hodge's 'payday loan' ads for Money Me. Is Hodgey the next Wallet Wizard?

That should be ******* illegal lending huge amounts like $20k and $50k with those terms how are they not only allowed to advertise but legally allowed to offer a service like that

F*ck. Yeah. 100% agree. Short term loan default caused the 2008 Global Financial Crisis. Didn't Hawthorn benefit that year? Coincidence?

Haha exactly! I go to all the Lions games at the Gabba and they are absolutely cooked. No chance of making the 8.

Random note: Charlie Cameron reminds me a bit of SDK in that both struggled to return to form after nasty facial injuries. I'm proud to see SDK is building his confidence each week. It's really not understood by the footy media and wider public the heavy mental toll facial trauma inflicts on a player. Studies have shown it can lead to PTSD and anxiety disorders whereas things like hammy injuries don't. It's pretty intense!

But yeah Brisbane are done for the season and it's crazy that people paid to analyse footy still rate them. Cats and GWS are the two clear standouts.

They can’t even play well at home that’s a big sign that they are in trouble I’m really suprised that there are posters and people in the media talking them up …I suspect that will change with a few more losses

 

[The_Koulouriotis_Fan]

Jordan Clarke is very unlikeable, good player but glad we got rid of him and can see why we didn’t play him, good character goes a long way at Geelong.
And him going has allowed Zuthrie and Holmes to develop.

 

[Hamingja]

Only about 4,000 people at the North game in Hobart.

They haven't got 10,000 to a game there since COVID hit.

You never hear criticism of the deal but the state government sponsoring North games is legitimately a disastrous investment.

Hawks crowds have dropped off but they still average over 10,000 in Launceston as a bottom 4 team.

What a lowlife - Hodgey shouldn't be in need of a dime, and those payday loan companies are absolute vultures.

What's the goal that got overturned. Would love to keep it on file for later in the year....

No idea sorry

 

[Strange Cat]

Shootout today between Suns and Weagles

 

[Gunf]

Suns look so much better at home as per usual

 

[Gunf]

WCE being destroyed in the middle but unlike us they can't move the ball

Was it the Lynch one at the end?

I expect GCS to turn back to s**t next week away from home and back to heroes against us at home in Darwin
