If it exists this guy would be the life of the party.

Hawks beat Swans
Norf beats Melbourne
Freo level with GWS in the last

Don't look now but the planets might be aligning ...

Freo are gone but we have had a good run so far this round, if we can win it will be huge.

Re: AFL Round 19, 2017 Discussion

I attended within the MCC last night. It was a fairly underwhelming game for much of the night, given the fairly good conditions. Some of the tackling was good, some of the defence was good, some of the kicking was good, but it didn't really seem to get going to the heights it could have.

Being neutral I didn't dress in any teams colours. About 30 minutes after the game within the third level's/bar's men's room (which is essentially a large echo chamber) I happened to be relieving myself alone, only for a Hawthorn MCC attendee to enter the room, proceed to make a phone call and lambaste who I assumed to be his friend for being a homo. As he was standing at the urinal on the other side of the room he couldn't see that I was giving him a really of a strange look due to his homophobic tirade (I think he also used the insult "pilgrim" - so you can imagine what we're dealing with here).

However, another Hawthorn supporting MCC attendee did see the strange look I was giving this guy for his tirade. This person - obviously drunk - proceeded to death stare me as he walked passed and when just passed me unleashed an even bigger homophobic tirade. I can't explain how loud this guy was screaming about Sydney supporter gayness, the Madi Gras, gayness in general, the Madi Gras, Sydney only having gayness and Madi Gras - so on and so fourth. It definitely seemed directed at me.

So there's a snapshot of a heterosexual Bulldogs supporters (who when dressed neutrally obviously presents as a homosexual Sydney supporter) experience at the MCC last night. I have no idea how it feels to be abused and discriminated against due to my sexuality, I'm not sure if the experience I had last night provides some insight.

Symptomatic of deep seated hatred of difference. And their team won the game! What a pair of tossers.

I guess it was too much to expect a Giants loss as well as a Melbourne loss. The Dees implosion has done us a massive and unexpected favour, and they now have to travel to Canberra next week to play the Giants.

Top 4 is done and dusted for us but the top 8 is now very much in play.

What is a better win, Port or Saints? Somehow a Saints win would open the 8 even more.

Pros and cons with both. Saints win opens up the Port top 8 spot (and we play them later in the season) but it would also give us another challenger for a top 8 spot. Port winning will kill off the Saints for good, especially if they smash them and wreck their percentage

Plus the Saints give me the shits so I want them to get smashed

Re: AFL Round 19, 2017 Discussion

Not sure Bornadog.

Port losing helps make another spot available and the worse form they're in the better for us when we play in Ballarat but St.Kilda losing helps make sure hey can't jump us.

They've got WCE at Etihad, Melbourne at the G and North at Etihad. All are hard to predict and could help us as long as they don't win all three and end up ahead of us.

Re: AFL Round 19, 2017 Discussion

Jeez the Saints-Port game's a grim spectacle. A clumsy, exhausting, error-riddled grind.

May they continue to smash the shite out of each other.

Re: AFL Round 19, 2017 Discussion

4 points in it with 7 and a half minutes left Saints lead.

Still not sure what I want to happen though
