Round 1 Non-Essendon Game Thread

Freo defending like all Ross Lyon teams do.

 

But now attacking like Geelong under Mark Thompson through the corridor, coast-to-coast.

 

Scary proposition.

 

But would be much closer if Pies hadn't stuffed at 6 chances directly in front.

I still don't know why or how "making a genuine attempt" to get rid of the ball is now justifacation for throwing it. Fyfe goes to kick the ball, ends up making no contact with the ball, yet it's play on. Throwing the ball is throwing it, no matter what your intent was, flick handballs are not allowed, despite your attempt being to handball it, so why the fark is this **** now allowed.

Read the rules. Not new.

That fyfe decision is the perfect example of how farked up the rule “interpretations” have become. takes three or four steps, run-down from behind, doesn’t get boot to ball. if thats not worth a free against then the game is shot.

Collingwood look slow and unfit. they also look structurally disorganised, a bit like we have so far this year. there might be a lot of sides at unusual stages of preparation this preseason.

La Bamba needs to grow some hair back. Serious pinhead.

Spent the night flicking back and forth about 50/50 between this & the soccer.

Missed more goals in the soccer.

And that was a ■■■■ match, finishing 1-1.

 

 

Footy this year is like Peter Costello nude, just cannot muster any sort of excitement for it.

Freo, already starting to get the non-decisions in their favour - the advantage that good teams get for some reason, ie. get more time to get rid of the ball, and are allowed to dispose of it incorrectly etc. Get on them for the flag.  

Cloke = epitome of flat track bully. Also = wanker. 

Collingwood having an Essendon like forwardline strategy.

Kick long and deep to flat footed players and don’t for the love of God lower your eyes.

Lacockwit going for the Kanye look.

ordinarliy id GAF, but its collingwood, so lets just enjoy the 12 goal drubbing

If tonights umpiring has set the bar for the year im done with footy. Resembled a Basketball game at times and didnt realise its legal to throw the ball away when someone tackles you.
