The AFL Thread

I see your COVID restrictions are over.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

Yeah they've been over for a month. But they will be back!

Some people have been calling last night Buddy's super spreader event. If anyone there has it, then a lot of others now have it.

Go Pies!

So I've been exposed to a bit of footy lately while being social. I'm now invested in it because when Collingwood look like they might lose, they always lose and usually badly. But weirdly, they're winning a bunch of close matches.

I saw the last 10 minutes of the past 2 wins and have just been informed about last nights win.

Apparently a Melbourne player was talking shit on the radio about how the pies are a one trick pony.

Melbourne were second on the ladder.

Collingwoods one trick paid off and they beat Melbourne to take second on the ladder. Which is just hilarious. But you can just count the days till Geelong smash them right out of the finals.

I hope Melbourne and Collingwood meet again in the finals because there will be an all in brawl, and footy has been missing epic fights since the 90's. Even better than a good game of footy is a good punch on either at the start of the match or half time.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

It was another awesome game. We just keep grinding out low margin wins.

The player that said we are one trick ponies was Ed Langdon, who got booed all night because of it.

What a play.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

From 17th to 4th. It's crazy.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

Go Pies!

In a shocking decision, the AFL are going to have the grand final replayed but with Collingwood instead of Sydney.
Because even though Collingwood would have lost by an embarassing margin, at least they would have turned up to play the game.

Better to not make it to the final by a single point than lose a final by 8 million.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

We would have lost by under a goal.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

Pendles has stood down as Pies captain. Our longest serving captain. A great skipper.

Ian and I know his Uncle. Much of the family barracks for Collingwood. I grew up with them on a Black and White television. Twasn’t until we got a colour television when I was about six that I learned that every other team had colours except Collingwood.

It's true you know!
