But even throwing Carlton in there in front.

We are missing out best 2 tall forwards - Lynch and Balta - imagine them being without McKay and Curnow, they'd never kick a goal as they only ever target those 2 inside 50.
We are missing 2 of our best midfielders (3 if you still include Prestia in our top 3) - imagine them being without Walsh (I know they've done that), Cripps and Cerra all at the same time. They've done it with 1, but with all 3?
We are missing our best tall defender in Gibcus - imagine them without Weitering.

They can talk about injuries to nuffies, but our injury list for a middling team, is then like taking that middling team and removing Curnow, McKay, Cripps, Walsh, Cerra and Weitering all at the same time. No wonder we are struggling, I think any team would. The only position we have strength in right now is the ruck.
i think his point- if he managed to have one on this occasion was about the number of injuries rather than the quality.

We know from the past when Essendon win games in April they are successful when it matters.

So that Geelong loving flog GW reckons this season is the greatest ever.
I know it’s partly due to Richmond being a non entity this season but it already feels like this season is dragging….and it’s only April! Feels like there’s a lot of dull inconsequential games too.

Like 2020...this will be the greatest win ever! until we won it.

This is the greatest season ever! right up to the point where Geelong gets bundled out of the finals.

Heh heh heh…Chuck Ralph suggesting WCE should re sign Yeo for 5 years.

The bloke is 30 with a terrible soft tissue history you idiot.

He really is top quartile in what’s a stacked field of media fools Ralph.

And that scenario nearly makes seeing the Cats finish top and dominating throughout the year nearly palatable.

If it’s some consolation I reckon the vast majority in the industry would regard him as a complete tool.

Played 4 good weeks in a row.
If that’s not a 5 year contract then I don’t know what is.

Poor Blobbo's gonna be alone for 1 month when Wanker heads overseas with Ch 9 for the Paris Olympics.
That's when Robinson takes his usual 2 weeks off with the flu too.
Then we might get 2 blokes that know the game hosting the show Buckley & King
Or Jack & Lewis

Blobbo has had a bizarre go at JB & BT commentary from the Anzac Day game saying they were fawning too much over their mate (Craig Kelly) son Jake.

But that Luke Darcy was great in his commentary of the Dogs and son Sam.

Actually way beyond time that someone called out some of the commentators for how much crap they dribble out during a game. Mind you though, Blobbo needs to be careful they don't call him out for his pathetic dribbling on 360.
