Yes, it's only Melbourne, but if one of those behinds goes straight................. If my nonna had coglioni she'd be my nonno.

If your nonna is anything like my nonna, she probably had coglioni.
At any rate, the first q was awful, but it wasn't so bad after that.

I just cant watch it anymore, sorry but I just cant. I feel for people who coughed up their hard earned to support them and get that crap in return. Call me a sook, fairweather supporter whatever, they wont get a cent out of me ever again. Nothing changes, same rubbish week in week out sprinkled with the odd win every now and then against the bottom sides. If I hear one more person mention our supposed top end talent I will spew up. We have Cripps, Weitering and maybe Doc if he can stay injury free. The rest are just very average footballers with no intensity, poor skills and turn up and perform occasionally to justify collecting a pay cheque. Five farken years we have been waiting for green shoots, young players, blah blah farken blah. As ol mate Dane Swan said, the world has changed forever in the wake of Covid19, there is a constant though, the CFC and their pathetic rinse repeat efforts.

I'm not sure Cripps was 100%.
Just seemed to lack a bit of the usual explosiveness...and certainly the impact.

At any rate, the first q was awful, but it wasn't so bad after that. You're telling me, I turned off after they kicked their 5th, I just could watch any more. And by that, I mean I cant watch anymore, not this week, next week, the week after and so on. I cant do the "1st qtr was bad, the rest was ok" thing. All I see is the 1st qtr over and over and over. Nuffs enuff.

‘Besides the first quarter / half / third quarter / last quarter / first 5 minutes / Last 5 minutes
Bull dust constant bull dust
They are professional athletes that play a game with a sole objective to win. That is it. Not a close finish or a good come back.
Over the excuses, and I have been waiting and waiting and patient.
Can not rely on Crippa to do it all - kid will leave soon enough

Don’t like to kick when down but when they cannot score in one whole quarter, the first after 3 months away. Not one score. No rushed behind. Nothing.
Sad
