Re: How many frees to Grundy???
Yep, those two inept cheating maggots running the game - any excuse to stop our late momentum.PyreneesPie wrote:Yeah, I could see that happening Piedys!!!piedys wrote: I would have been ejected from the stadium. That's basically why I can't attend games anymore.
The decision against young Daics on the boundary line in the last minutes of the game was an obvious error and a crucial one, given that we were pushing so hard there at the time.
Look at all our frees tonight - we were either nearly decapitated, or driven so far in the back into the turf, that we needed excavating to unearth our player.

Did the Rabbits have an extra week of recovery time from their previous match compared to the storm? ( I don't know, 'cos I don't follow rugby)masoncox wrote:After the game I watched melbourne storm beat the rabbits with a come from behind win.
They had a crap load of injured players like us.
But the difference?
One is probably the best run club ever.... and it is not collingwood.
Melbourne Storm ....absolute champions in never say die.

I don't think that trait has left us - it just seems like it has this season, because all our determined efforts don't translate into goals.masoncox wrote:absolute champions in never say die.
I actually wonder whether with teams like ours (with few A graders, but a lot of B graders who play their hearts out), whether the lack of contact training is having an exaggerated effect. Unlike, say GWS, we don't have a lot of sublimely skilled players (especially with JDG, Sidey and Howie out) and probably need to practice our skills under physical pressure far more than some other teams. However, that avenue is not available at the moment. Maybe that's why we seem to panic under pressure too?

Re: How many frees to Grundy???
And don't forget the howler early in the 3rd when Starcevich tried to run through half our forwardline, got caught, and it's umpires' %##ing ball!!! That was the worst decision of the night. Disgraceful!! There were other frees Rosebury didn't pay us in the 3rd because he didn't want to upset the crowd - weak and incompetent umpiring.piedys wrote:Yep, those two inept cheating maggots running the game - any excuse to stop our late momentum.
I find your lack of faith disturbing

I love melbourne storm.
Greatest run sporting club in Australia by far.
Been in the finals including this year I think 17 out of 18 years.
probably haven't won as many GF as was possible, but they are universially respected in giving their all.

Yes...so true. The report in the HS a couple of days ago said it all - we've had 14 days less rest than our opponents; Richmond on the other hand has had +7 days on their opponents. We copped it worst by a long way. The fixturing maggots are the real cheats here - how they can disadvantage just one team so much is beyond me - are they just incompetent and didn't look at the balance of days break per opponent, or did they just see it as a great chance to truly roger us and hope no-one would notice? I suspect both.DT wrote:Players were tired. Lions were fresh. A lot of analysis here is off the mark in this season. The AFL has killed us with its fixturing.

And Greenwood got pinged for the same thing; took maybe a step or two?
As I've said in another post; I just cannot attend games to tolerate this bullshit.
It is now a family environment, not the free-for-all it was back in the day at the Yarra Falls end at Vic Park, where one could, errr... speak their mind [the truth!]
I refuse to be censored in public; my brain and mouth have no filter, so I simply cannot inflict that on people who wish to bring their children to AwFuL games. I'll just stay at home and bake the TV instead.

Re: How many frees to Grundy???
Same. I have no idea how I’m going to be able to take my kids when they’re old enough. At this rate, the game will stink so much that we all won’t be interested in going.piedys wrote:Totally; vile turd isn't he?tbaker wrote:And don't forget the howler early in the 3rd when Starcevich tried to run through half our forwardline, got caught, and it's umpires' %##ing ball!!!
