8 Point Games

Post: # 2022102Post Sainter_Dad »

No - not as in we beat someone else who was also playing for a finals berth

We beat West Coast - a team who is clearly the worst in the league this year by 8 points

and

We beat North Melbourne WHO ARE ASKING FOR A COMPENSATION PICK by 8 points

Before our game yesterday I was 8/8 in the tipping - and held NO CONFIDENCE of getting 9

People complain that we aren't playing entertaining football. But what could be more entertaining than coming from behind for a close win? Nobody wants to see us win by 80 points every week.

Ok...I don't want an 80 point win every week, but once a year would be good 8-) :mrgreen: :wink:

I just want some weeks whereby my Apple Watch doesn’t remind me that my heart rate is over 120 for 10 minutes but I do not appear to be exercising

Just occasionally - and it is getting harder to argue that we aren’t sh!t

Ha. I must admit I was getting up walking around trying to find things to do 😂 I remember years ago we were so far in front of Hawthorn and they came back and did us I was seeing that again.
