Post Match. Pies thumped. All comments.

[Big T]

Yeah we get it Piesnchess and it has been a magnificent two years. But we are allowed to actually bemoan our recent drafting and discuss concerns on the list. Be a pretty boring forum if we all sat around shining last years cup.

[Marvelos]

We need to be ruthless at the trade table, I’d love us to get back into the draft, move heaven and earth to get 2 top 15 picks and draft the Whitlock twins

Kane Cornes on 9 right now loving Ginnivan showing off constantly yesterday and carrying on after a goal. Nathan Brown called him out and said Cornes hated it when Ginnivan played for Collingwood (so loudly and weekly it derailed Ginnivan’s season). Silence. They’re all Collingwood-hating hypocrites.

That’s a good point about Kane Cornes.He is such a hypocrite.He absolutely loathed Ginnivan when he played for us.Criticised him for everything from his ducking for free kicks to his onfield antics.

And yet now he’s playing for the brown and gold he absolutely loves him and has no problems with him at all.He also liked the Hawthorn players antics like pretending to take photos of each other when they kicked goals.And yet he had an issue with Collingwood players for simply smiling when they ran onto the ground.

As I said,he’s such a hypocrite,

I’m probably in the glass half full camp always. Shit game. I hate Hawthorn. I can’t say how glad I am we got rid of Ginnivan. Muppet. I don’t care how many possessions he gets, or how many whatever’s, his behaviour last year was a disgrace, on every level. Club sticks by him, and on the night before the GF … . Anyway. In 1990 when we won the flag we were smashed by Hawthorn in round 17 or something. In my lifetime we have never had the wood on them, and they are playing inspired football. Shit game. This is just me, but I don’t think cupboard is bare, Port Adelaide game this year, Melbourne, Carlton. We are badly out of form, and confidence. I was so over it last night. Today I wake up and think of how much fun I’ve had the past 2 and a half years. And one thought, Carlton, Nirth, Brisbane, Port A, Suns, Sydney, GWS, Footscray, Geel, and probably Freo have objectively much better lists than us, and they did last year as well, and most likely the year before that. And none of them one the flag last year, and only one of that cohort has won a flag in the last 4 years. It’s a tough brutal game. I’ll go along to Richmond next week, and hope for a win, and then be excited about the handbaggers game. Irrationally, I haven’t given up on sneaking in. I’m f…ing stupid - I know. I hope the players do read this sometimes, and appreciate the joy they have given us the past while, and that I still believe, and if it becomes impossible to do so, I’ll be there still yelling at the shit decisions, still in awe of Daics x 2, still bloody happy to support this club. Deranged pedestal stepped down from

Nice Pete. Very nice

[shawthing]

Next week, they will have some other team to ridicule.

Not if we get done by the Tiges!

Wellll if the Tiges beat us they will likely lose the #1 pick in the draft... so there's that conundrum for them... and they play North the week after...

Agree. I'm glad others are noticing this as well from the media.

The double standards are astounding.

What was Krugers injury?

[lazzadesilva]

What was Krugers injury?

Concussion I think. He failed his head assessment and will miss next week.

Kane Cornes.. Sam McClure... anybody else... will say whatever they think will provoke a reaction in people. Without reactions, they don't have a job. Once you realise that you will ease up, and not take the bait so easily. They deliberately choose a side. EVERY football panel on EVERY show has people for and at least one person against the grain in EVERY topic they raise. It's scripted... every day... every week... every year... No anger, no relevancy. Once your eyes are opened, you can't take them seriously anymore, no matter how much angst is in their voice [Lyon], how much annoyance they show [Cornes], how much stuff they make up [McClure], how much frustration they show [McGuire].

[Mr Miyagi]

66 points is our biggest losing margin under Fly. Which isnt that bad considering.

I’m surprised Nathan Brown anything — wasn’t another word after that though.

Yep this is so true. The world has just become click bait heaven - not just in the footy world but in every aspect of life.

The one that I like to listen to the most is Jonathan Brown - I reckon he analyses like he used to play - straight at the ball and not pretending about anything.

My final thought on that miserable forgettable match, in context. WE won the Premiership last season, and it was fantastic, a wonderful memory no one can forget, we got a flag for the ages. Sixteen teams, plus us , 17, wont win the Grand Final this season, only the 18th will get it, and if you dont win it, you are quickly forgotten, so we are in good company. Mate of mine, Saints fan, seen one flag, entire life, decades ago, when he was a kid. We have very little to complain about, really.

If someone said to me you can win a flag then not make the 8 the next year.....I'd take it. And like above, think St. Kilda.
