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

So he found his kicking boots tonight

 

[Lana]

I’m starting to think they have all forgotten how to defend

I was thinking that they've also forgotten how to attack. Any goal is more a coincidence rather than by proper execution

 

[FootyLad0]

I think that's why I like Scott so much. Nothing better than a mastermind a box.

Yep, let him observe from above, let certain assistants do the work near the boundary line and leave the other coaches in the box to focus on their areas of expertise.

Hands up if you follow a club that didn't give a first rounder for Schultz lol.

A first and a second

 

[catstorm]

Carlton’s not winning s**t this year, only tactic is to kick it long to Curnow and McKay. Very one dimensional team.

 

[Lana]

The coach on the sideline thing really does my head in.

Makes me question who the real coach actually is. Who is in the box making the changes while McRae and Voss cheer on from the sideline.

It's okay during the week they practice their chants and dance routines. After a few years they get very good at it.

Still baffles me.

Someone said I was jumping the gun saying it was an overpay a few rounds ago.

It didn’t make sense at the time, it didn’t make sense a few rounds ago and it doesn’t make sense now.

His production was the fact Freo used him as a key option because they are bereft of good goal scorers.

In a team like Collingwood that already has Elliot and Hill and Checkers and the like his role is basically redundant.

 

[Lana]

That kick does my head in.

Quite possibly, but it's enough to beat bog-average teams like the Pies.

Well yeah, but they will be found out in finals.

 

[BIGANT]

Wouldn't it funny if all of Collingwood, Brisbane and Port miss the 8. Unforgettable

 

[FootyLad0]

I won’t be complaining although I reckon Brisbane will go on a run soon. Champion Data numbers said they’ve been inaccurate but their off the ball numbers have almost matched ours (top 3 in the League)

If they kick straight they’ll bounce back.

Cant say the same for Port or Pies.

And tigers finish 9th

They grabbed something they could get, they would have preferred a reliable KPF. With their demographics, they're in full win now mode.

And tigers finish 9th

They won't get within cooey of 9th. Will be doing well to get to 12th.

 

[Gunf]

Coll seem to be playing more conservative this quarter

Trying to stop the leak with a bandaid

 

[Lana]

They refused to switch against us last week. Everyone has so much tunnel vision about going fast that they don't see it as an option

 

[FootyLad0]

They refused to switch against us last week

We are one of the best off ball system teams in the League.

We underestimate how good our team defence is.

 

[Strange Cat]

They won't get within cooey of 9th. Will be doing well to get to 12th.

And that stupid tiger flog will still claim that the tigers had the better year because of high draft picks

I’m looking forward to that delusional rant at the end of the year

 

[FootyLad0]

They grabbed something they didn’t NEED.

You don’t give up FRP’s for guys who are just additional players.
Thats what you give up for genuine guns/ball winners/key position players.

 

[Lana]

He had no right to get that

 

[Art Vandelay_]

And that stupid tiger flog

That narrows it down to about 300 people on this site.
