VFL - week 1 finals vs Richmond @ Punt Road, 2:10pm Saturday 31 August 2019 - on telly

Who got rested?

3.5?

As well as all the million injuries, we held a few over (Ridley, Jok, etc) in case they’re needed for Thursday, and also put Snelling in cotton wool at half time

Maybe we wanna play Williamstown rather than Footscray in the prelim

Snell is 1,… and I’m guessin Harts the .5, … nfc who the other 2 are.

Edit. Unless he means left out?? then Snell is the .5

19 AFL players for the top-of-the-ladder team, versus 10.5 for us, and obvious structural deficiencies (we should have been murdered in the ruck). We’ll beat them in a Grand Final.

(And boy some of our 10.5 were awful.)

No match for him
Too big , strong and experienced

Don’t ever underestimate the value of a beast of a ruckman

History isn’t much of a guide.

We rarely have both AFL & VFL teams in the finals together or individually.

thats worse than the north melbourne loss that ended steinbergs career.

We are a pathetic club. A stinky, pathetic, shithouse club that has done nothing for almost 20 years and are entirely built off the delusional hopes of boomers who last enjoyed football happiness in their 20’s (and are now 40+) whilst the younger generation lives off youtube highlight videos. West Coast dropping 7 goals in a quarter to go up by 13 goals, probably in the third, whilst the crowd roars its appreciation of Nic Nat will be the final straw. there is just no excuse at any level for giving up a 40 point lead in the last.

Ok appreciate the clarification.

Ridley, Jok, Laverde +0.5 Snelling (maybe)

Assuming Fantasia, Heppell, Hooker, etc all playing on Thursday.

Now for the self loathing to come out.

1st world problems

20 AFL listed players to 11 and a bunch of fark wits are dummy spitting left right and centre.
How about you appreciate the efforts it took to be in front by so much at 3/4 time?
Blokes kept trying, threw themselves into it and ran out of legs by 20 seconds.
Against a virtually full AFL list remember.
Not a bad effort by 11 part timers, some retiring veterans, and only a handful of players who’ll still be on the list next year.
So stick your whinging where the sun don’t shine, and back your players in next week.
Great effort by Heppell, Long, Mynott and many more.

Ridley and jok didn’t play? Lol there is no way either are being picked to play in the final

How did Snelling play before he was rested?

I also love how we tested one of our better VFL players, who is fringe 22 seniors at best (snelling) halfway through the game because we think he may have something to co tribute to the seniors

Epitome of our mindset.

Houlahan just signed his departure papers with that performance, 4 possessions and 0 influence on the game. We had to use the 23rd man, Day, as our key target because Houlahan was giving nothing.
