Football Happiness

Yep because it can never be the most obvious solution, it just has to be THEM DAMN WOMENz fault. I hear the conflict is because Stringer started going out with JJ's ex without JJ giving express permission or signing over title to his property to him.

We have AFLW and White Ribbon Round now so its perfectly fine for a mainstream media outlet to perpetuate these moronic caveman philosophies.

Well it is football we're talking so it's possible those philosophies apply to someone involved somewhere I guess

I'm copping it at work at the moment with those rumours , I'm over Facebook I've gone off it .. Too much click bait and people making a story up and everyone believes it.
Social media and cheap journos start it all.

I was pondering the other day (and this is only reading about our game on Saturday and seeing none of it)...

Last year the team appeared to be driven by emotion. Rather than just being clinical and ruling the league all season, we brought the romance and passion back to the game. No faceless foot soldiers, it was men playing for each other and bringing all their emotions along with them.

Now that's all well and good when it works in our favour, but my question is, is that emotion now working against us? Is it too difficult to compartmentalise the losses? To a point, are the boys letting the emotions now take them the other way this year?

Now SEN is saying there are rumours of a rift between players caused by a woman. All this crap starts again when we lose badly. David Scwartz says there is infighting at the club how would he know?

DOGS INFIGHTING RUMOUR ‘LAUGHABLE’

FORMER Western Bulldogs ruckman Luke Darcy has refuted claims that infighting is derailing his ex-club’s premiership defence this season.

Darcy’s defence of the Bulldogs came after former Melbourne forward David Schwarz hinted that all was not well among the Bulldogs’ playing group, which went down to Melbourne on Sunday.

“There are players down there that aren’t seeing eye-to-eye on a number of issues, and some of them aren’t footy related,” Schwarz told SEN.

“There are other players down there accusing other players of things, whether that be goalkicking or decision-making.

“You go through these things at sporting clubs but it is rare that happens on the back of a premiership given they’ve been so united and so well oiled.”

But Darcy described Schwarz’s claims as “laughable”.

“It’s hard not to laugh at that to be honest with you, because I picked up the phone knowing that was said this afternoon, you make some calls to people around and it is laughable,” Darcy told 7Mate’s Talking Footy.

“There’s some frustration about how they’re playing, but that’s what happens. You lose, you’re a premiership side and all of a sudden people generate stories from nothing that don’t exist and talk about stuff that is just factually not (correct).

“You’d be disappointed if they weren’t frustrated, but that’s what happens in football clubs, not ridiculous stories about players having personal issues.”

Former flame divides once-close teammates

As Western Bulldogs fans and the footy public search for reasons behind the club's strangely ineffectual premiership defence, it emerges that an off-field, behind-the-scenes, incident could be responsible for divisions within the Dogs' ranks.

ESPN understands there's a rift between two once-close teammates involving a woman, the former flame of one who is now the partner of another.

The new-found relationship is said to have created a wedge within the playing group, throwing the club's premiership defence into further disarray.

The Dogs have lost much their bark following last year's fairy-tale premiership win, slumping to ninth after losing four of their past five matches.

So one player has a rift with another and the whole cub is stuffed - pull the other one media.

[dadsgirl16]

Abby has also posted a video on Insta..absolutely categorically denying any relationship other than being best friends with JJ

[Twodogs]

A break up is hard enough without having to do it in public. And people making stuff up and others repeating it wouldn't help. I feel for them.
