  1. I heard Misson mention he expected AFL players to be getting low 10's. I attempted this and only managed to get 2km in 9 min. It really is amazing how elite these guys are. (disclaimer: not very fit myself)
  2. From @MelbourneFC Twitter. "The boys had a time trial around Princes Park today. Top 3 were@jtren9 followed by youngster @TomMcDonald92 and then@nathan2jones.
  3. Moloney is a flat track bully. Look at the games he polled in and the games he didn't. Goes missing with the slightest pressure.
  4. I've been playing around on the AFL website and found two players that stood out in the footage. Alex Woodward seems to be a small clearance specialist with lightning hands. He came up when I was searching for pace on http://draftmachine.afl.com.au/. Pace plus inside work would be a big tick for me. "Vic Metro U18 rep. Inside mid who reads play and uses ball well. Great work ethic, excellent in the air. Extremely team-oriented. From Dingley JFC." The second is Clay Smith. From what i've read he's an average kick but his footage shows a great determination for the pill and his championship stats were impressive. "Averaged 17.2 contested possessions and four tackles at U18 champs. Has fearless attack on the ball and opponent, wins contests. U18 All-Australian. From Lucknow FC" Has anybody seen these guys play or heard anything? Particularly interested in Woodward, he seems like a jet.
  5. It's at Etihad so we'd probably lose regardless. Thats what its all about. From a pure footballing term that is an outstanding result! If we can escape with 2-3 wins from round 5-11 then we are on track. Very hard run that hopefully doesn't demoralize the players like it did this year. All in all it would be good to have a few extra Friday night games but at least our 1 will be a blockbuster (please don't rain!!!) Only 2 Etihad games with 1 against Freo is a big win. Our final 10 rounds are also phenominal. No excuses next year
  6. Quite a few people have Jones on the pine? He'll win our B&F this year as a wingman. I think that's where he will stay.
  7. That was a lot of fun! Played like a final should it, our match came right down to the wire. 1 goal or 7 kicks or 1 FA or 2 Hitouts. Good luck in the finals all. Robbo24 will be back again next year bigger and better!
  8. On Joel Mac. He was one of our best and also worst. Was great going back taking marks but he seriously makes some shocking decisions. I cringe when he has the ball (as I do with Rivers, Bartram, Jones)
  9. Definitely deserves an extended run
  10. Its hard to argue with those odds. You're stiff not to be favourite considering you finished on top. The top four obviously have an advantage with a double chance but I feel DL7 could be a good shot from here, especially if Riewoldt fires.
  11. Great stat! As we move forward and attempt to push for the top 8 then no the compensation is not worth it. For a team like Port Adelaide, or us 2 years ago this is a worthwhile exercise. It's time to stop selling games and putting success before everything else.
  12. I hate this topic. Players sign for the period of their contract. In this case, Tom Scully has signed to play for us until October 31st 2011. Until this time it is expected that Tom Scully does his all for the club in a professional manner. Regardless of whether Tom stays with us after this date is irrelevant right now. If Tom were to not give his all then questions would be asked, however there is no way that this would be the case. Get over it and move on.
  13. Yes. In hindsight I have made a mistake and would like this trade not to go ahead. I did however agree to the trade so am willing to go through it. Similar to my stuff up with Walker/Ablett.
  14. Its not the MFC's fault. Geelong only give the general public a few hundred seats for home games at Skilled. Nothing the MFC or any other club can do about it!
  15. He's not the best kick even with his boots tied up. I'd prefer to see him try and hit a target with his laces done.
  16. Oh I'm not requesting it. I'm just saying if you don't like it, click the veto button, that's what its there for.
  17. As I said above, when i logged on yesterday morning there were two trade proposals. I clicked accept and it went through.
  18. Click the 'Vote Against' button
  19. I looked at your team yesterday and got a massive fright! Had another look now and its still quite imposing. Its gonna take some good coaching to beat you.
  20. Yeh I can understand that. And I wish to apologise for the 'fool' comment. I don't expect Jayceebee to accept this though. Good luck this week lads!
  21. The trade was there when I logged on this morning as was another trade that OMR offered me. I assume that you could make trade offers until the cut off and could accept afterwards. Anyway feel free to veto, however I'm feeling some negativity towards me so I'm guessing you all won't.
  22. Yes we are brothers. And believe me I in no way want to give him an advatange over me! But as mentioned earlier. This trade was a part of the Sylvia - Green trade that we did agree on earlier but I mangled up the trade when doing so. In hindsight I'd like to vetoe as I don't wan't to be without Broughton. However if this is done the Green/Sylvia trade should be vetoed too as it was meant to be in the one trade. Does this make sense?
  23. I'm going to post on here what I have just posted on the UF chat box. This is in response to OMR and JCB questioning trades between Snomed and myself. It seems very rich considering the amount of trade offers I have thrown out all year. Simply because Snomed and myself are willing to take risks to win this (See me trading out Ablett/Walker) you lot ask questions. You are kidding me. I have thrown out trades to EVERYBODY nearlly every week! Nobody can dispute this. You have vetoed 2 trades between us. The first was Ryder for Gray. Turns out that would be pretty even right now! This trade was meant to be part of the current trade that has Bartram and Swallow for Broughton for Watson. As you can see this is highly skewed in SnomD's favour. This trade was meant to include Green for Sylvia. But please inform me as how this trade is unfair? You fools. Learn to play before whinging about every trade.
