Sometimes instead of facing forward I sit backwards

Is it because you're taking a poo? That's how we are meant to use a toilet, no?

There is 14 of us that stopped going cause no-one wants to watch sideways, backwards, football. l rather sit in a car watching fights at the local footy  ;D

Interesting that the VFL side today played totally different
Long kicking to F 50 with at least 2 forwards ahead of the ball at any given time

Sometimes l wonder if its a planned club decision. They knew going into the season they had serious issues with players. So instead of going full on & having more players go down, They drop down the ladder to get better picks cause they knew come finals time they would lose the 1st final again which would stir the supporters to the brink.  l think Fremantle are doing the same as are a few others. Get the players they need & go all out the following season. Sounds crazy but what other reason would senior players play such a style of football that sends the supporters feral.

Freo have tanked better than us. We can't even tank well for crying out loud. If we were real pro tankers like Norf last year rnd 23 we would play the reserves this week and put them all out of position and rest our best 18. Doing our best to get pick 5 by losing by 90 or more.
