Kill me now

Sounds like you're already dead inside

 

[Diehard Saint]

Yes. I added it to my membership and got another pack sent with a $35 voucher in it.

Thank you.
I guess I’ll try the club again.

 

[Diehard Saint]

Yes. I added it to my membership and got another pack sent with a $35 voucher in it.

I think Iworded it incorrectly.
I mean, if you have already signed up to Kayo before knowing about this deal, can you still get the discounted offer?

Great stuff from the AFL. All 17 clubs represented here.

It isn't a very good ad either way, but there is a guy on the right at about 0:47 with a red, white and black scarf.

 

[Waiting for Godot]

They do production meetings. Don't be surprised if it's a good cop/bad cop bit. They clip the AFL by stealth to avoid the call from head office. They frame Caro as an attack dog and Roo as a voice of reason that sees the big picture. Footy media are performers not journalists these days.

Well you're right about one thing, gringo. She's definitely a dog.

 

[sauce_head]

I’m 50/50 on Caro, she usually hits the nail on the head with topical issues. Thought her debut last night was weak and very outdated. Move on Caro you are flogging a dead horse. Glad we had Roo on the spot to cut her down

If not for Caro, Jimmy Hird and the Injectors would have gotten a light wrap on the knuckles by the AFL.

I don’t always agree with her but she has a lifetime of points to burn from me for the way she was determined not to let Lame Turd off without a hitch.

 

[sauce_head]

how would you like it?

Just take it one game at a time.

I saw that and dismissed it as a Swans scarf but if you're really quick with a screenshot and a zoom, there are 3 colors. 2009 scarf?

****ing hell. Even North gets pride of place. We really are the AFL's ugly child. Bassat really did piss them off.

 

[dudeintheswamp]

Yeah it's a bit like telling the pimply, fat kid to stay home from school on the day of the class photo.

The thing that irritates me is that supporters from other clubs will gaslight us and say that this sh*t doesn't happen and we are treated the same commercially to all other teams. To others, everything is fair and equal - we are just "incompetent".

Seeing stuff like this just makes you pray that we have a great season and disrupt the script of how everything should go. As we have all discussed, the AFL has no desire to give us the platform to succeed. We have to be exceptional to compete.

I felt a lot more comfortable when Gil was still in charge

Let's be real, the bottom 4 narrative has come from 1 poor quarter in a praccy match, and an injury list that should be halved in 3 weeks. That's a pretty loose call to say we'll be absolute garbage because of that.

Our midfield has inherently gotten better from last year. We beat 2 prelim finalists in the last half of the year and got within 2 points of another. We've just drafted what seems to be a generational KPP in the top 10.

I really hope we shake the tree and prove the doubters wrong.

As Rooey said, we've been quiet for our entire existence. I'm so glad that our club as a whole has decided to renounce this idea and seem to be doing everything in their power to make us a box office club. All we need is the on-field performance now to back it up.

Absolutely agree. Hopefully, everyone currently on the injury list, except from Pou and Howard, will be back playing in some capacity within the first month. We just need to find a way to half our win/loss to start the season.

It's very easy to write hit pieces about us, but I am glad we have grown a solid backbone and regularly push back on the inequalities across the competition.

Would love nothing more than a gutsy win away from against a team that many expect to play finals this year. However, even if we did win, I doubt we would get a pat on the back from anyone.

Just more fuel for the fire.

If its correct that TDK has stated he doesnt want to play for StKilda but the money is too good to ignore, then its time to put the cheque away immediately. If the club cant sell the vision beyond money, then seriously, keep hitting the draft and stop looking like a street corner hooker looking for a fix.

What else is he going to say? Seems after tonight, he isn't too keen to play for Carlton either.

The draft isn’t an alternative, we have to actually spend the salary cap. It’s also not in terms of trade, as he’s a free agent. It’s money we need to spend, 100k draftees don’t do that.

I understand its not an alternative but we need to make a pretty strong statement and take the higher ground now by walking away and letting him rot at Carlscum. Financially support our own talent first, sell the vision to opposition targets to those not solely motivated by $$$$, and take a step back. Salary cap space is easily shifted.

 

[Jay Beast]

Looking like the biggest bunch of desparados, lobbing big money offers without any genuine interest.

Very public as well.
Embarrassing.
