Imagine a month where you've never felt more distant from everyone you love and like, where all hope is extinguished as the reality of endless lockdown sinks in and its never been more apparent that the people in charge are a bunch of corrupt arseholes who are only in it for themselves. And then imagine that your football team is still the biggest dissapointment of that month, and could still make it worse by losing to Essendon next week.
I'm fine btw, but man I am so dissapointed in everything atm.
Hearing you and feeling your pain. It has been such a bad month. It’s only going to get worse. The HeraldSun is always leaked the latest restrictions and this is going to be even more painful. Construction gone and takeaway coffee of all things. Our homes will be literally prisons.
Regional Victoria is set to be plunged back into lockdown and Melbourne’s 5.1 million residents are facing a new round of harsher restrictions.
A cut in outside exercise time, a total closure of the construction industry, restricting childcare to essential workers and new travel limits were under consideration by the state government on Friday night.
The Saturday Herald Sun understands a ban on takeaway coffee and food and locking down residents in hot spots until they test negative were also options discussed to fight an emerging third wave of the coronavirus.
Yeah, what’s with anyone criticising others on how they post in here? If you want to cheerlead and find positives, do it. If you want to criticise, do it. Fancy policing how people post on here after that loss (on top of everything else).
So those opinions are ok but other opinions are not ok? I’m confused.
I’ve always found this place respectful and constructive. We are all hurting but in my opinion a couple of posts are way off (I stress a couple, majority are fine). But how dare I express that opinion, but everyone else can say what they like?

Opinions on the performance are fine, negative or positive. Go as hard or as soft as you want. Opinions and policing how people are reacting to the loss, pointless and inflammatory.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Ok I'll try and explain. Its Ok to have your opinions.
And its Ok for others to have contrary opinions to yours.
What;s not OK is attacking the people with opinions you don;t agree with and that are contrary to yours and wanting them not to be expressed at all.
Stick around, post about the performance. Just don’t criticise those for having a negative take on the game.
I don’t care to read posters singling out individual players and telling them to f*** off. So maybe this ain’t a place for me either.

Welcome to NSW. Terrible one day frigging awful the next. I feel your pain.

I don’t like every thing I read either but I’m not going to criticise and police and tell others not to post them because I don’t like it. Especially in a game day thread.

He’s not getting paid out two years. Review. Change. Perform next year or go back to Mentone.
Fair and transparent.
