@CalTwomey Might be a bloke playing his 300th this weekend, won a coupe of Premierships and a couple of Brownlows but yeah the guy playing his 100th, ok.
English
As if we weren’t doing this again…
Ahead of Nick Daicos’ 100th game this week, here is the definitive ranking of the Collingwood superstar’s first 99 games.
From No.99 up to No.1, see the list here of the best first 99 games of any player this century👇 afl.com.au/news/1487802/e…

@PaulZauch @shaggs23 @iyalode43 Where would you like Collingwood to play Richmond, Essendon, Carlton, Hawthorn and Melbourne as away games?
English
@streetshow20 @shaggs23 @iyalode43 Hmmm … premiership coach Craig McRae sees the fixture as an advantage to his team.
What do you know he doesn’t?
English

@streetshow20 @GeorgeFlor41759 @Damian_fasciani @wal03041983 Your list is full of 30+ year olds and your best player is moving to tassie. 🤫
English
I don’t think it’s talked about enough,
but Collingwood letting Ginnivan go was a huge mistake.

@JTD0NS @GeorgeFlor41759 @Damian_fasciani @wal03041983 You don’t have an average list mate. It’s fucking deplorable. So shoosh,,,
English
@GeorgeFlor41759 @Damian_fasciani @wal03041983 because we’ve got an average list I can’t comment on your average list ? Interesting

@PaulZauch @shaggs23 @iyalode43 If travelling is such a disadvantage, why would Interstate teams complain about playing half their games against teams that have to travel??? Or maybe it’s all bullshit…
English
@shaggs23 @iyalode43 Because he plays for Collingwood and they have chronic travel sickness.

@lithgowflashman @EBoyacs He doesn’t have the consistency of Bont/Daicos. Has 2 brilliant games, then a quiet one. Repeat.
English
@EBoyacs The great ones all do

Danger got his at 32 years of age,

Issac Heeney is still the best player in the AFL and know one ever says it.

@PaulZauch Travelling is the most overrated thing ever. 4 of the top 6 teams are Interstate teams. Look at Brisbane dominating the comp. Between 97 and 06, look how many Interstate teams won flags. It’s an easy defence for shitbox clubs like Freo, Port and Adel who never win anything.
English
5 are “away” games. Brad, please.
Away games for non Victorian teams require airline flights & often sleeping in hotel beds.
Many of the “away” games you reference here don’t even need a cabcharge.
This is a huge advantage.
Brad Klibansky@BradKlibansky
Collingwood’s next 10 matches ⬇️ Only 1 x ✈️ Looks can be deceiving though. 5 are “away games”. Round 11-16 looks good on 📄 If they can find some form in the next 5 weeks, their season could be back on track before their run home 🤷♂️

@lolgasem @killermattk If you guys decided to do something in this comp for the first time in 30 years, you might get some overdue froth.
English
@killermattk Fuck he just talks shit. Drones on about the same shit. Only Pies could get frothed over for playing slow. Stfu

@lauren_vasiliou Your poor children. I feel sorry for your husband as well, but less so, as presumably he had a say in the slovenly, untidy woman he married.
English
I have been called a cunt multiple times by men in the last 2 days for supporting Ben Roberts Smith. Fuck off you bunch of fucking pussies. Those of us who have never been to war should never judge the heroes who have. Now eat a bag of dicks and shut the fuck up
English
@Kidcowboy2 @joe017432831221 Well maybe BRS is right, and the 21 SAS colleagues breaking code and testifying against him are wrong! 😂😂😂
English
The bloke was awarded the Victoria Cross ,he’s a war hero .
This is how our government treats its war heroes now ,it’s absolutely disgraceful.
English
@ianmiles I’m Australian and I had never ever been ashamed of my country as I am at this moment.
English
This is how Australia treats its war heroes. Brands them war criminals for killing the bad guys and throws them in jail. Disgraceful.
English
@stannarde1 @superfooty ‘We regularly go to Interstate games, but not paying a substantial sum to go to Norwood’. But yes, Lion’s supporters travel. 😂😂
English
@streetshow20 @superfooty Rubbish - we regularly go interstate for games and have been really keen to go down for gather round for 3 years but not paying a substantial sum for the privilege of going to Norwood. One year maybe to muss out on adelaide oval - but every year for 3 years?
English
The Lions have are reigning AFL champs twice over — but have once again been snubbed on the main Gather Round stage. They know they’re being disrespected, but are they better off this way?
READ 👉 bit.ly/4c8MhRH
English
@speculative27 @superfooty Hard to argue with most of that…having been to Gather Round, the atmosphere at the games was sub par anyway, may as well save your bigger ‘home’ games for the Gabba anyway. It’s literally just an AFL House and media junket.
English
@streetshow20 @superfooty AFL is about money for sure, Lions fans will travel...but surely, as a neutral fan at gather round, you'd be more likely to go to see the 2 time champs over Essendon. Doesn't really matter, disrespectful sure, we'll see you in September when it counts.
English
@speculative27 @superfooty Simple economics mate. The AFL do a lot of shit, but they ALWAYS put finances first. You’re a brilliant, brilliant team, but also really easy to hide from an attendance point of view. Just reality. 🤷🏾♂️
English
@streetshow20 @superfooty Absolute bullshit. Less than an hour later after our game against Norf starts, Essendon V Dees at Adelaide oval...Demons fans don't turn up to the MCG let alone travel to Adelaide! Lions were one of the highest rating teams last year as well.
English
Not like we’re missing Will Day or Karl Amon or Cam Mackenzie or anything but go off I suppose.
Tom O'Neil@thomasjameoneil
Hawks running very hot this year. - Cop GWS with giants missing about 10 players (still lost) - Swans the week Heeney and Gulden get injured - Now Dogs without English and Ed
English
@ShaunGarrity @superfooty If you played Adel or Port, of course the ground in SA would sell out. But the reality is, for all the good footy you play, your fans don’t travel, and you don’t draw a crowd.
English
@streetshow20 @superfooty So you don’t think Adelaide v Brisbane to open gather round at Adelaide Oval would sell out? Funny we sold out last year against them.
English
@BenTMMA @DetroitLemons99 @kanecornes In fairness, you don’t need to be any good to perform on Anzac Day against those shit kickers…
English
@DetroitLemons99 @kanecornes Im an Essendon supporter, I saw him kick 5 on ANZAC day when he was in his second season and first handful of games. I was pretty sure he was a good player...
English
@user3782992 @PurpJuicey @Jousting_Sticks I’d love him at Collingwood. He’s a very good footballer. Freakish talent? Calm down…he’s a 10-15 possession forward pocket that will avg 2 goals a game across his career.
English
English
@user3782992 @PurpJuicey @Jousting_Sticks 61 goals in his first 43 games as a permanent small forward is out of this world. 🤦🏾♂️
English
@PurpJuicey @Jousting_Sticks you’ve got to have freakish talent to be drafted top 5 at 170cm
