Post Game passion: AFL 2021 Rd 6: Carlton vs Brisbane

[Milhanna13]

But this year, since last year, even my friends who are MCC members are not going to many games if any, yet we've been to several suburban games.

MCC have to pre-book tickets, which is not something they are used to.  I am sure this has dropped a few off.  It takes away the, I'll wait until the last minute and decide if I'll go, crowd

R1 v Tigs, they changed the capacity from 50% to 75% 2 days before the match, and then wondered why the ground was less than half full!!

I agree that the problem is tactical / coach / MC related, but that doesn't stop King's opinion being offered like a weathervane. If King coached he'd kill a team with mixed messages and backflips.

Correct.  I am sure you could find a single piece of footage, from any club, from any game, to prove any point.  King, grabs one piece of footage and then acts like that proves he is 100% correct on any opinion...  Then rinse and repeat the next week

We are an easy target, there is so much footage to work with over a long period, he doesnt have to think too much its just there
waiting to be edited into his next rant. We often get beaten the same way with the same opposition players doing the damage and its very easy for him to prove his points and they are repetitive because so is the way we lose..

On another note, is it just me, or are the commentators getting even worse??
- Eddie - calling Levi "Levi Greenwood" twice!!
- Dwayne - "there is 5 minutes left in this last quarter, but based on how the last 2 quarters went, it could go for a lot longer".... umm, not sure thats how it works, Dwayne....
- Reiwolt - "Carlton were really good, there, at taking ground, though the use of legs"..... umm, do you mean, "running", Nick??

Milhanna.....there's a few cliches that have crept into the commentary vocabulary in recent years that absolutely sh#t me to tears:

1. "running on top of the ground"......as opposed to what?....underneath it.
2. "lower the eyes"

I was level 2 as well behind the goals and didn't hear anything like that.

If we had a Whatsapp group, I could send you a video of at least one said horrid supporter

Great post Fly....pretty much sums up what most of us have been saying collectively for a while now.
