The Official Lonley 2005 AFL Season Thread

[The Sad Punk]

Funny, Hall is my favourite non-Eagles player, yet I hope he doesn't play for obvious reasons.

I won't lie... I cried when the Eagles beat the Crows. I was so happy. It's been forever since we've been in the Grand Final!

And I couldn't pick a better opponent than Sydney, I'll actually still be happy if they win. They both deserve victory.

Can I support them now, Anna? Can I? Can I?


Or do I have to wait another week?

 

[Angela Harlem]

If Hall gets suspended, we/they..er, the team will need all the support they can get, tania! I have to say, I was glad the Crows got knocked out only because I think if we faced them in the finals, we'd have had no chance of winning. Sorry, Sad Punk! But if you guys made it to the final, you'd have taken the trophy for sure. All that said, I'm still scared we wont have enough even if Hall does play, to beat the Eagles!

Good luck to your team, Arcadion!

 

[The Sad Punk]

Wait, wait... are you assuming I'm a Crows supporter or something? Or did I misread that?

I'm an Eagles fan born and bred (mostly because there were no SA teams when I was born), I can't stand the Crows or Power.

 

[The Sad Punk]

Cous won the Brownlow!

oh my god, sorry, I completely misread your post! I thought you said you cried when the eagles won out of sadness, not joy. Ignore me
In my very first season, I liked the Eagles. I actually liked their colours, as sad as that was. But I realised I was never going to see any matches as the only ones shown regualrly here are Sydney games so I became a loyal Swans fan and have hated an increasing number of Vic teams ever since. Oh, and the Lions and the Crows.


Sydney only had til 10am this morning to lodge an official appeal, I thought, and the news has said no one has heard anything. Anyone else know what's going on? I should just check the site, lol.

i cryed when Swans won against Geelong - great goal by Davis!!

 

[timothius]

This article sounds fairly positive for Hall.

[Angela Harlem]

thanks tim!

I was jumping for joy after that game, smurf sista!

 

[Tania]

Hall is in!


(But I didn't mention that in an excited manner or anything, it was just a general comment I wouldn't wanna put the mocca's on anybody or anything

 

[timothius]

booya!

Although in my experience these kinds of controversies in Grand Final week do tend to be the kiss of death.

 

[Earnie Shavers]

It will be very interesting to see how a Swans win impacts AFL in Sydney (if they win of course).

 

[Angela Harlem]

Fucking bandwagoners will come marching over from the thugs game of league. Stupid pussy sport, that it is.

 

[Earnie Shavers]

WIN - 2 weeks further attention, then back to normal till a collective casual eye is cast across their positioning next September.

LOSE - Forgotten again by Monday.

 

[Angela Harlem]

Hmm, if I may put on my cynical hat?

WIN - headlines declaring that aerial ping pong is best left in Victoria ( ) and every fan who has followed it, is of course opportunistic. Oh, and Hall got away with it because Sydney is such a pathetic city and needed this rather than he getting off legitimately.

LOSE - See? Sydney always were losers. Suck it, up you pathetic lot who jumped ship and supported them! Fair weather fans! Sheesh.

PS no offence meant with the NRL thing above. I used to be a Penrith fan back in the brown and white days.

 

[Earnie Shavers]

Oh, I can't stand the NRL. Hate it and it's culture with a passion.

 

[Angela Harlem]

Excellent! I couldn't remember if you were a fan or not, as I associate you kinda with the nth sydney bears because of you and Amanda having grown up in the same area or something. My memory is fuzzy

 

[Arcadion]

I'm soooo damn nervous about the GF

Oh and to thugby

 

[Tania]

I hope you are just talking league there, Arcadion

 

[Angela Harlem]

Union is somehow entirely different. Yet, not....



Well, I at least accept the existance of Union with an open mind, league I do not. Ever. At all. Completely.

God I'm nervous. I hope they sleep well tonight, poor lads. They should ask the Slackers for some No-Doze, Tan.

[CrashedCarDriver]

ive lost my voice

can i have a voicebox please?

 

[The Sad Punk]

As soon as we lost I went outside and drank beer alone and started to cry.

But I'm better now. We'll win next year.

 

[Aardvark747]

A message from the late, great Jack (aka - Palace Hero)...."I'm so happy the Swans won!"
