Another problem with supporters is they are happy if they win any game
Like the comments after we beat Essendon** by a couple of goals last year
A team that has won one game since as has been diabolically bad
It’s like supporters think there in a 1993 time warp
Guess what
Time constantly brings change
Mate, I don't mind your posts. I have a laugh.
You paint everyone with the same brush.
You believe everything nuff nuffs say on media, and don't like nice people.
Like all of us, and coaches, you are not a know it all, but you talk like a person who thinks they do. Trump like
Don't get angry. That's just my perception.
I'm responding to the above re Effendope game.
You really don't know what happened in that game ie the back drop.
You know this much about footy:
Never underestimate an underdog who has a lot to prove (see Aust vs Turkey, or Carlton in 1999).
This game was Effendopes Grand Final. Like Carlton folk the Effendope and carlton clash can come up with surprising results (see 2002 game)
Effendopes knew we had Weitering missing and Caddy could run amok.
They had players returning: Redman (their best defender, Durham, their best mid, and Pick 5 200cm athletic 200cm at HF)
The Effendon midfield wasn't their weakness, so they thought they could win.
We had Carroll join HOF and Motlop in LTI, Ollie and weiters and the Elijah hang over against us.
A lot of sore bodies after beating Cats. Cripps and walsh were carrying injuries,sore as fk,
carrying 3 babies Ison, Byrne, Young. I guess you could call Wilson and Dean babies too.
It was a fair fight.
You think we were lucky to win. I think we did what we had to do to put them away with 10 minutes left on the clock, and didnt know how to kill the game.
I was proud on the boys. Rapt what Fraser was able to get them to do to win the game. You choose to spit on their effort and ability. I didnt overrate the team, you do.
We got the 4 points. That's the bottom line. We move on.
Its only a game, A game of inches. Some games are not worth reading too much into. Like I said, we won, move on.
As for the rest of your post, sure, fire away.
