Oh, this thread is active. Then I’d like to take this time to repeat a post I just made in the Lid On thread, albeit with a few tone changes.
This is the upbeat thread for optimistic stuff. If seeing people being optimistic offends you, and you feel the need to pick a fight about our midfield depth or something, can I make the following suggestion: don’t.
Mute the thread, and you’ll never have the itch to bring down unbridled enthusiasm. You won’t be tempted to be a grinch and ruin people’s fun, even if it’s just because you didn’t realise which thread you’re in. By all means bring the cynicism to any other thread, that’s how blitz do, but maybe just mute this thread and let the happy people be happy.
I realise this is unlikely to be an issue this week or (in the spirit of the thread) any other week because we’re going to go undefeated from now to the flag, but on the off chance there’s a minor hiccup, this isn’t the thread for being a gloomer.
We win the next 4 games and IMO it almost shuts the other thread down.
We’d be the biggest news in the AFL.
(Tiges,Gws,Port,Sydney with the two Sydney games away. I couldn’t think of a.more.challenging run right now given the form of those sides.)
So last week top 4 Geelong were a bruise-free disaster, this week top 4 west coast are flat track bullies. IF we win next week Richmond’s demise will be the huge story. All the while we live thus…(PS the “you” in the lyrics
refers to our opposition)
Richmond, GWS, Port next 3. If we go 2-1 from that set then we are tracking really nicely, 3-0 and it’s LID OFF! Richmond this week is massive. 80K+ crowd for Dreamtime, if we bring the effort and fluency in attack from the past 2 games we will be fine.
Fixed. Now you and everyone who liked this post must go full lid off.
This thread still feels a bit rudderless without the president & vice-president of the lid off nation, where have they gone? And who will claim the leadership now from 2nd drop as Speaker of the House of Representatives.
