Re: Pre game postulations: AFL 2021 Rd 10: Carlton vs Hawthorn Reply #76 – May 20, 2021, 06:41:52 pm I try to understand the journey we're on, and as such I've haven't been too upset by our season thus far. It seems to be panning out about right for where we are at IMO - but I'd be pretty disappointed if we don't win this one. The Hawks are struggling at the moment, their ins are blokes I've never heard of, we play at the G etc. If this isn't winnable, I'm not sure what game is. Quote Selected

WTF!Also good to see Williams named on the HBF... play him into form in a familiar position and to EARN a midfield spot. Quote Selected 1 Likes Liked by: bricky

Re: Pre game postulations: AFL 2021 Rd 10: Carlton vs Hawthorn Reply #81 – May 20, 2021, 07:20:06 pm I don't have any confidence in us winning this game. The abysmal performance by the selection team gets worse and worse. Gibbons, gets dropped. Somehow ends up as the emergency, then destiny dictates he plays a full game. Does SFA, again, but somehow that is good enough to get him back in the team. Morons the lot of them. The person I feel for the most is Paddy Dow. Was going OK before getting a busted eye and they drop him for getting subbed. Pathetic. Levi finally get the "rest" he so richly deserves, but I got a bad feeling he'll get a late recall. Parks wasn't that good last week but he just came back from a injury didn't he? No 2nd chances for blokes like him but Gibbons/Levi/Setterfield/Murphy get multiple cracks? Drives me nuts what they base these decisions on. Quote Selected 1 Likes Liked by: flyboy77
