Re: 2019 AFL Finals Series
What did NicNat just say to Worsfold as they were walking off? Woosher walked up to him to shake his and and Nick said something, turned his back and pointed to his shoulder. Worsfold just sort of snarled and walked away.
Maybe it was "If you ever send a dickhead like Belchambers out to snipe me like that again I will take it out on you"They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.Comment

Re: 2019 AFL Finals Series
This is a great stat!
over the past 50 years in finals, only Kevin Sheedy has coached us to a win (23 Wins & 20 Losses). Every other coach has tried 7 times (Make that 8 after tonight?) and lost them allThey say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.Comment

Re: 2019 AFL Finals Series
I always knew it but far out Essington fans are delusional. They are convinced that Stringer played shit tonight because they rushed him back before he'd recovered from his injury. No, he was shit tonight because he appears to be eating lard straight from the tub...They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.Comment

Re: 2019 AFL Finals Series
Jumpers these days are pretty tough on players, but it was noticeable with Jake after a couple of weeks off after apparently one of the most fantastic seasons ever (I can't believe he didn't make the AA Squad at least after 1.8 goals a game at 12.1 disposals whilst rotating through the midfield).
It's been a great night for sport in Australia tonight. WCE didn't look immediately convincing whilst pantsing Essendon, and Steve Smith puts together a great innings with support from our mediocre captain who had a well welcomed dash of form to make us super competitive in the cricket.TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.Comment

Re: 2019 AFL Finals Series
I know I really should 'grow up'. But few things give me as much pleasure as watching Stringer play a stinker. And the bombers getting belted.
Wasn't it truly sickening how the commentators were just SO in love with him. It was just jaw dropping.
Hopefully Jake really soaks up the praise over the off season. Let's hope he bastes himself in it, drapes himself in it, steeps himself in it, marinates himself in it, bathes himself in it, showers himself in it.... and let's hope Jake continues to hover at this level of INCREDIBLE.Comment

Re: 2019 AFL Finals Series
Firstly a lame tackle on McGovern on the wing where McGovern easily fended Stringer off and secondly a piss poor attempt at a half volley when he could have gone harder at the ball and taken a mark (would have been a mark directly in front and Bombers would have been back within 18).Comment

Re: 2019 AFL Finals Series
Yeah, that one in the goal square where he waited for the ball to bounce was appalling. Anyone with a shred of hunger or commitment in their body would have burst forward and marked that. It would have been impossible to defend against too.
Lazy.There were two standout moments in the game that I thought 'yep that is why we are glad he no longer plays for us'.
