Semi final “second half”

[turbo]

Thanks Ancient, found old bandage and yellow food colour, done. COYY

Yellow football sock would do the job too with less chance of mess.

Gold bays are going to be reasonably full, just the Gold bays at the upper ends are not proving popular.

If its 5k left, we are at a 15k crowd. Wow.

 

[Archie]

I reckon we will sell at least 1000 more tickets, COYY

First post back on the ol' forum in months...boy oh boy am I nervous for Saturday night. Tickets purchased and I cannot wait to see CCS rocking again. After the brilliant year we've had, the lads deserve a bumper crowd. COYY!

Ok, hope someone can help on here. Anyone know where I can get a yellow crepe bandage, I have a cast on my arm but it is red ??. Tried chemist, vet and left message with club, yet to hear back from them. Thanks in advance, oh it is so I can wear to game and not jinks us with my red arm.

What about yellow insulation tape from Bunnings.

Get that police aware tape heh

Bunnings have yellow ‘cloth tape’!

So use a normal bandage to strap arm then put the yellow cloth tape on the bandage.

Said it before the Adilaide match I'll say it again, I'm not nervous bout these games, I see this as the opportunity these boys have to stick it to every person that put us down as mediocre, this team isn't mediocre.

Right. So they're gonna kick the shit out of us, at least their diving doesn't float with Faghani

 

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

I had a funny feeling we'd get Faghani.

I think he's an atrocious referee, but I'm hoping that the fact he lets players kick the shit out of each other because he has no idea what a foul is might help protect us against their diving.

Having said that, it was their fouling that was let go in the second half which led to the blow-up. If AU are smart, they'll just try to antagonise us to make us lose our cool. They should be trying to hack us to bits, elbow us and make us retaliate.

If we can not get sucked into the niggly, the cheap shots and the handbags, we should be right.

Expect Isaias to have full reign to throw as many elbows as he likes.

Although it's diving from pushes / holding that I'm worried about with him, as he's over the top with those.

It'll be Beath or King for the GF, I'd say.

Dust off the shoulder pads boys, Fanghani is reffing.

 

[ccf]

Beath to be ref on GF

 

[Corsair]

Expect Isaias to have full reign to throw as many elbows as he likes.

What this guy? Nah he's a lovely bloke who just enjoys being close to Fazz

 

[Liam]

He whines about getting targeted by the ref and he gets away with most fouls. That elbow to the back of the neck is foul but it went against Farrell, anyway he is a pain in my opinion Isaias.

There you go only this morning I said the officiating has been good in the finals and Evans get a gig in the middle. Tin foil hat is straight back on.

Or god forbid question why he’s letting someone kick the shit out of you. He makes up for letting the game flow by giving out some really petty yellows so need to be smart especially in the second half.

There's a difference between 'letting the game flow' and not recognising fouls. He's on the latter, not the former - but he'll pull up shirt pulls that haven't affected play.

 

[Ancient Mariner]

Mouths to be kept shut when the bad decisions are made and we should be ok.
My money is on Isais to get the first yellow unless we lose our cool.
