Whoops I totally forgot football was a thing. Hi I'm no longer angrynaut, mind updating the OP?

I don't particularly dislike Ballantyne, but I do hate when he does well against us. Which is rarely because Freo blow against the Saints. I dislike Crowley more.

For about the first minute of the Saints/Lions stream there was no commentary and was so nice.

Going down immediately and then being able to hobble around on it right after is what an ACL usually presents like in footy isn't it?

Yeah, it certainly reminds me of a few others ACLs. Didn't McKenzie hobble off too?

Periphery posted:

Oh god apparently Billings has been subbed and was limping heavily. Hopefully it's nothing serious.

E: Saints twitter reporting it's just precautionary for hammy tightness.

Jesus christ fingers crossed. An injury for Billings will kill me.

Markworth did his shoulder again. AFL's article said six months, maybe the Saints site is trying to remain hopeful. If it is out for the season, that might just do him. Shame - beyond being an athletic freak, he seemed like a good kid. His parents sit behind me at home games and he dropped by once or twice to say hi. Fingers crossed.

Saints :allears:

Not playing particularly impressive footy, they're just running harder, putting pressure on, laying tackles and watching as the Suns fall to pieces.

Josh Bruce might just end up being the player Kosi should have been. With a bit of added Hamill-like grunt.

Apparently scraping together a win down at Kardinia against a team that just got wrecked by the Saints is "a win for the ages, one of Geelong's finest"

edit:

Hahahahaha a win "against all the odds", had a few injuries but jesus christ they're playing at home against a team that got dealt with handily by Melbourne and St Kilda, hardly a david and goliath situation.

Can't catch a smaller player? Just shove them in the back and then grab them without the ball. Umpires don't mind.

My old man was saying that if you don't know who a Saints player is, just call him Jack and there's a good chance you're on the money.
