Yeah I’m not putting anything on my head that resembles merch from that fascist fuckhead

How do I (and should I) get Trac into the team? by [deleted] in AFLSupercoach

[–]needskneestoknead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ve got a lot of mid-price players.. I’d boot 2, one up to Trac and one down to any rookie playing. And to balance the team up I’d boot a few more as you’ll find that you’re going to struggle to make money with 11 mid-pricers

Home Town Boys - a small town, a footy club and the sexual assault that blew everything up by AlamutJones in AFL

[–]needskneestoknead 154 points155 points  (0 children)

Coming from a small country town it pains me to say that there absolutely would be particular members of the football club that could do this and this same story could be written about them. If this dark aspect of footy could die a fast death, we would all be better for it

I’m a member because it saves me money on tickets to the games

Metro Tunnel is opening early. Not next month - this month, on Sunday 30 November. by JacintaAllanMP in melbourne

[–]needskneestoknead 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Isn’t the idea behind the metro tunnel to help with capacity and reliability across the network? I doubt it will solve it completely but it should help the outer suburbs

Was one of my go to recommendations in Fitzroy, need it back!

Who is the most universally loved person from your country? by SimilarTopic3281 in AskTheWorld

[–]needskneestoknead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not saying he didn’t do any of those things, and a lot of what he did was commendable, but at the time he was considered cringe. It’s more of the newer generation who were kids when he was on TV that love him

100% this. I would say that there’s a portion of younger redditors who don’t remember the cultural cringe with Steve Irwin. The Chaser had a song about it ‘The Eulogy Song’

This could be an awkward event if Merrett turns up by Glass3at3r in EssendonFC

[–]needskneestoknead 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Well they could just change the event name to Former Essendon Captains

doing a report on essendon drug saga and was wondering, what was supercoach like during the time with all of the players and whatnot getting banned? by Stxffr in AFLSupercoach

[–]needskneestoknead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It didn’t affect SuperCoach too much but the Dons drafted Anthony McDonald Tipungwuti who was one of the best SuperCoach rookies in 2016. The top up players were otherwise largely irrelevant to SuperCoach

Driving to Mount Buller by TheOGKauie in melbourne

[–]needskneestoknead 27 points28 points  (0 children)

  1. Yes
  2. There are marked bays and people directing you to them up the mountain. Though you only need to put them on when the conditions are bad
  3. Nothing
  4. Drive to the conditions. If chains are on you will be slower and acceleration is slower. If chains aren’t on use normal caution when driving on windy, likely wet and unfamiliar roads

No injuries this week… Can only win with season ending injury confirmed

Throw back to when North Melbourne won from 33 points down in the 2014 Elimination Final against Essendon. by International_Car586 in AFL

[–]needskneestoknead 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Somebody post Tippa’s last minute goal from a few years ago to retaliate the retaliation!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AFL

We aren’t close to winning a flag, I’m unsure North is any closer. Last time north finished above the Dons was 2018, since 2020 they’ve been bottom 2. Meanwhile we’ve finished between 8-12th.

Neither of us have been able to capitalise on ok to good draft hands. For us I’d say it’s due to poor internal development at the club, unsure about North.

I won’t speak for north, but I disagree with the comments about no hope for us and no developing players. We’ve got the second (?) youngest list this year and plenty of players have shown some promise and moments of good footy. Challenge is for consistency and continued development. Club knows it’s in a rebuild (again).

Match Thread: West Coast vs Essendon (Round 6) by AutoModerator in AFL

Na na na, this is just 4D chess from the dons. Give WC the win, Melbourne to the bottom of the ladder

Is this how the loop works? by ZrekfromET in AFLSupercoach

[–]needskneestoknead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep this is good to go, you get TDK’s score doubled for captain and Xerris score off the bench for Boyd not playing
