You have not got a clue. FYI, the broadcasting rights have been in discussion ever since they were last negotiated. Do you understand that? Not months..but years. They are the hottest deal in Australian television. There are bigger and more important issues that clash guernseys between the media outlets and the AFL. Maybe you should actually talk to some of the people involved in those actual discussions than make making fallacious statements that beggar basic common sense. Your research is badly wasted but it clearly tickles an idle mind. Keep it up.

If we have more points at the end of the season that eight other Clubs then I think we deserve the place in the 8 more than any of those other teams. Think about... no seriously.

Your AFL conspiracy theories as usual holds as much water as a sieve. Absolutely no idea whatsoever. The Broadcasting rights have absolutely nothing to do with your silly cocked conspiracy. Flaccid pretence in dire need of substance.

Definitely. bsolutely no value in 9th above 8th. Just ridiculous. Oh dear.

Its up there with the worst of them 45....Absolute garbage. Why do you remind me of Dennis Hopper, the photographer out of Apocalypse Now. The similarity is just scary...

So Carlton and Sydney deserve to be in the finals??

He isnt a star yet. But if he continues the Brisbane form he will be.

We just have to keep winning. Dogs need to be beat the Roos. Here is the ladder from 6 to 12 Hawthorn 18 9 8 1 1607 1506 106.7 38 Carlton 18 9 9 0 1672 1629 102.6 36 Sydney 18 9 9 0 1572 1553 101.2 36 North Melbourne 17 8 9 0 1449 1684 86.0 32 Melbourne 18 7 10 1 1490 1567 95.1 30 Adelaide 17 7 10 0 1410 1521 92.7 Essendon 18 7 11 0 1647 1889 87.2 Port Adelaide 18 7 11 0 1397 1717 81.4

This should not detract from Garlands game which was good.

Fevola was off the ground injured after half time. Clearly was not fit tonight. Rumours were that he would not play.

I leave the cheap personal attacks to you. It says more about you. I'll debate the issue. I have just shown you a stat that shows a footballer who has a very high conversion rate over a long period of time. Wriggle all you like. Its hardly a criticism that Jamar marks within 30 metres considering PJ doesnt. And if your fantasy is right that PJ is a more accurate kick from 40+ metres then his accuracy up close must be terrible. You are clutching at straws. The role they play does not matter one iota. Jamar's conversion rate is what it is. Outstanding no matter how you wish to demean. And the comment on Bate is irrelevant as you were critical of Jamar at goal relative to PJ. BTW, Green struggles from 50+ metres. Its hardly a damming problem for a footballer. He has had as much time forward as Jamar. The only thing Carey like about PJ is if he slept with another players wife and I am sure he is a finer person than that. PJ...Carey like??? I dont think so. I could give more incidents if you want. The errors Jamar may have made in his first 5 years are more explainable than a player in his seventh year. Given we have a surplus of defenders and that our best is very good, PJs best bet is to take the small forward. He was serviceable given there was little pressure given by the Swans and they did not expose him. He rucked against the Canadian rookie Pyke and broke even in the ruck. PJ kicked a goal. Great. He did his job. He gets another week. Many good and sensible posters dont lower themselves into player hatred or bashing terminology. Its childish and once again is reflective of the user. His core weaknesses remain the same. And for what he has done to date you would have to be crowing to think he has turned it around. And I did call his game serviceable. When he starts playing consistently good football as a ruckman. Brad Miller kicked 5 this year and that does not make him a footballer. I cant imagine what you would be like if PJ did. I hope he does one day. Like you I expressed an opinion on PJ. I dont think he is good enough and was likely to be delisted. I was not on my Pat Malone on that. However, he may survive and get another year more out of list circumstance than performance. I reckon he is a candidate for a 12 month extension based on the likelihood we wont draft that heavily this year and that players like SPencer (injured and in development) and Martin have not come on. And if he get a 12 month contract it is not a vindication of PJ as an AFL footballer. Once one of GAWN, Spencer or Fitzpatrick start to show something then PJ is cactus.

Dennis Commetti certainly is. Asked Jimmy for a membership form on the TV coverage last week.

Colour and psychology in AFL media articles...good grief. And shame on Sheahan for using stats and not pretty pictures.

A possible in the mix. No flies on you.

Good to see Wallet is so revered by his former pupils. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/terry-wallace-cost-us-a-flag-luke-darcy/story-e6frf9jf-1225899041655

Bell Miller Cheney McNamara and possibly PJ. However I am leaning to him getting a 1 yr gig given the yawning gap between Jamar and other talls.

Right so on one hand it wont but then the Media will say something that makes Sheahan's words totally false....which means it will. Who gives a flying fossil what the media says after the game? Its means little for MFC's long term future when the dust settles. Sheahan's article are based on a review of the weekend past. If you want footy tips for weekend the HS and Age publish them on Fridays.

Any thoughts on what's best for the team? Ugh. Geez, its got lower content that the Hun front page. I'd overlook those quotes.

Junior is not holding JT back. The issue is quite seperate. The only thing keeping Trengove out has been injured not other players. This week he returns from injury and may be given a conditioning run at Casey. He will back in the side next week. Its simple. Where's that photo of Commander Luc Picard from Star Wars when you need it? They're not substantiated and Junior's future has nothing to do with Bruce. BTW, we will cut about 5 players this year. Junior and Bruce are on the vets list.

Given that Brisbane go in as favourites then it will be disappointing but not unexpected that MFC lose. However that should have nothing to do with the LT optimism shown by the journalists. What they have said should stand regardless of the weekends outcome.

I'd prefer Warnock to Rivers on either Fev or Brown.

So why raise the fact that Trengove is being held back by Junior when that clearly is not the case? If there are 3 players going for 2 spots...the best 2 players get the spot. Its healthy. No one is being held back. In fact they're being challenged to lift the standard. All good. We need to get beyond that someone deserves a place in the side even though they might not be considered the best person for the role.

Junior isnt holding back Trengove at all. Every game Junior has played so has JT. They also play different roles. On this years form Junior is good enough to claim a year. If he does there should no reason why he is not captain again.

No he should go out on terms that are respectfully negotiated and agreed between the player and the Club. If the Club wants him to play another year and he negotiates another year fine.
