@Apples_23@Champ_Ratings Jesus Christ..it ain’t that deep.
8 teams still play finals when it’s all said and done - we just get there in a better way.
Top 6 is now a premium otherwise you’re vulnerable.
Next week there’s 8 teams in it, just like every other year
@braydenjmay Teams that finish 7&8 have been participating in finals since for your entire life..now all of a sudden they’re unwatchable. You people are insufferable 🤦🏻♂️
@mattricho0 Richo..It rewards 6 teams with a finals spot.. then the last 2 are decided in those exciting games you speak of..
If anything it’s more ruthless. Finish top 6 or you’re on the chopping block in a wildcard.
@brayden_cocks Lions, Cats and Hawks were all only a loss away from being in the Wildcard, all genuinely could have done it. It’s only year 1, a team will at least make the granny from there in the first 5 years I reckon
@Cpcc15@crypto_cowes Mate of mine was on the VFL list and reckons Perkins + Hobbs hate training and AFL footy in season lifestyle. Always talking shit about coaches (to be fair Brad Scott was a nuffy but it did sound toxic to me)
@PatrickRyen@justaflanker11 Definitely a good fit, hopefully could get ports pick and snap him up with that.
Cant use #1 pick based on fit, gotta get the best talent available
@rebirthofchick@SleepyJoeEnjoyr I’m an MJ & Kobe guy brah..LeBron’s game is not fun to watch in my opinion and his insecurities annoy the fuck outta me …
But getting to the finals is ALWAYS better than getting bounced in the first round etc..You can hate on Bron and still be realistic
@pauljames1968 Thought Spike spoke well, especially when answering questions..His Hird response was brilliant.
Welsh might need to work on his public speaking as prez though, sounded like he was in grade 3 at assembly when he was reading off that page
@rebirthofchick@SleepyJoeEnjoyr You say 4-2 is better than 4-6…
Those extra 4 finals losses Lebron has…He made the finals in those years. If he was 4-2 like Steph, it means he would have been bounced from the playoffs earlier than the finals..and you somehow think that’s better 🥴🥴
Sham process from Welsh who I’m bit a fan of..but..
McVeigh has some great attributes and will have my support. I do think we made the wrong decision for some of the wrong reasons but it’s not Spikes fault..
It’s definitely a might upgrade from Brad Scott.
@jjpage44@400Kamii@EthNick_ He may well be a good candidate but the way they handled this entire process was terrible and to end up with the presidents best mate is suspect at best.
I guarantee there will be a lot of “the decision was unanimous” to throw off the scent.
@Kiki_D84 What are you talking about? The news was leaked hours before Hird went on TV. He found out with the rest of us when it was reported..he didn’t announce it. Andrew Gaze is not very high IQ 🤦🏻♂️
@69bob69bob@TheRunHomeSEN Cal didn’t report it as an opinion or rumour piece, he reported it as fact. A confirmed appointment..that’s why Hird touched on it, because everyone already knew hours before ..acting like he announced it is..moronic
@400Kamii@EthNick_ McVeigh is Andrew Welsh’s best mate. Was the best man at his wedding..That muddy’s the waters a bit on why he was selected, which is a large reason people are questioning it. Let me know if you need me to break down any other context for ya. Hope this helps mate
@Dons_Nation_@Cpcc15 Watching this and reading some stuff has made me do just that.
I think welsh is an absolute joke, but have nothing against Spike, seems genuine and will get behind him when the dust settles
