A.F.L. Thread II

[Jono]

West Coast 2nds

 

[Spikey]

we weren't much better today!

(we were. and our faults were more picking the wrong replacements for the guys out)

 

[Jono]

Nah the fault is you played in a grey jumper and broke tradition [/essendon fans]

 

[Redbacks]

Watters has now outcoached:

Ratten, Sanderson and Hird. Not a bad effort from a rookie.

 

[Jono]

Sanderson is a rookie himself though.

 

[Redbacks]

Sanderson is a rookie himself though.

True. I think he still hasnt gone to a plan b but given his successful start he must be confident that the plan over 4 quarters will get the job done. Probably won't work against the pies/hawks. So a
Big test will be whether he learns from others combating his style to expose weaknesses.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Jacobs was hilariously dominant tonight. Bit concerned he won't last the rest of the season with his workload though.

 

[Jono]

Bring back Josh Jenkins!

 

[Spikey]

Malcolm Blight is our superior

 

[howardj]

Suns are rising

 

[Spikey]

Sack Guy, make Blighty coach

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Pretty much the team in the league with the least to look forward to.

 

[Spikey]

i dunno know the prospect of blighty taking over is pretty exciting

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Meant the Dogs ftr. Blighty is very exciting.

 

[Spikey]

melbourne's still probably got less to look forward to. at least you already have some talented youngsters. you just have almost nothing between 23-28

 

[Spikey]

also i meant blighty taking over at the bulldogs. he can do both jobs

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

melbourne's still probably got less to look forward to. at least you already have some talented youngsters. you just have almost nothing between 23-28

Not that many, tbh. As much as he used to be a gun, why they bothered bringing Gilbee back I dunno.

Round Fifteen Tipping Update

Another of those weeks, with everyone pretty much going for the same tips, except for Spikey, who's a special case in so many ways.

Consequently no-one went for either Carlton or St Kilda, but no fewer than eight tipsters got the other seven.
