Non-Richmond Games 2014

[Diocletian]

Reckon the above is the general feeling of a lot of people about the Australian Football League.
Richmond FC aside..
Expansion franchises hoarding draft picks for quick success, tanking, salary cap breaches, doping & ticket prices all have a diehard supporters scratching their heads...what has footy become? 

Numb about the tigers. Sick of waiting year after year. Like to watch us play but not emotionally committed anymore.

Whole doping thing was a hit on the game from my perspective.

But perhaps moreso, the expansion clubs being gifted such an armchair ride to premierships which will mean stuff all to their handful of supporters and we (and some other clubs) have to scrap every 4-5 years to get a semi decent list together which ultimately goes nowhere because of incompetant fooltards and a tilted table.

The Pies a doing a number on the Roos. Up 75 - 37 at 3/4 time.

Back to reality for north against an average colonwould outfit.

Speaking of which, Sydney look back in decent form against Freo. Or is it just that the Insular Oreos cant travel?

Bombers top 4 material  . Sheesh and I thought the first half of our game was terrible turnover footy.

Bombers downed by the Saints

Reality is a wonderful thing

Karma bus is even better

Lenny Hayes even at 34 is still a gun.

Heppell had a shocker. The Saints didn't allow him any loose uncontested possies. No wonder others here call him "footsteps-pell".

Results today don't make me feel as bad but if anything show how even the season is.

We're only a game off a top 4 spot  .

Seriously though, unless you're Hawthorn, there's not the number of gimme games as there was in the last few years. Last year we played crap against the Dogs (second time) and Saints and yet we still won both games by about 10 goals. Teams aren't getting away with that this year. If you're 5% off your game then a lower side can knock you off as we found out ourselves against the Dogs  .

If you want a laugh, have a look at the Bomberblitz game thread from last night and how their mood deteriorated over the course of the thread  . On pages 2 & 3  they were skiting about a 10+ goal win and how "they were on" after kicking the first 3 goals of the game. By pages 25-26, the thread had down a complete 180 and was in full meltdown as the Saints headed for victory  .

That was classic, loved the coach and player attacks, was very familiar

Now I'm waiting for the Karma Sothern Aurora to follow it up in the form of ASADA finally following up on their threat to issue a dozen infraction notices against these cheating pr%#$, and blow their season to dust. Or has everybody forgotten about this?

I heard bloody Darcy and Harley cant recall who saying "legitimate top 4 team in the bombers" pre game wtf

loved it, now like RR, just to top it off bring on the infraction notices, put them out of commission this season and next and then we call it square and move on.
