  1. How many would you turnover?. Delist - Terlich, Bail, M Jones, McKenzie, Mitchie Trade - Jamar, Toumpas, Grimes, Howe, Spencer That's ten. I'm guessing six out. What do you do with Dawes, Heritier, Spencer and Crossy? I rank Fitzy in our top 30 players (for next year) and believe he will improve. Edit: Added (for next year)
  2. A BBQ at the G? I'd be in that, sounds like a great idea.
  3. To become a deity. Edit: a god," from Old French deité
  4. That's a first for me. Have I missed something?
  5. I don't get the lack of love for Fitpatrick, he is about the same age as Gawn and has also had some health issues. I would give him another year. His upside cloud be huge.
  6. I know but it gives me the shytes though.
  7. Loved Sellars remarks to Slobbo on 360 talking about his bad back incurred playing football, something like "how did you get yours fall off a bar stool?"
  8. GD, quoting the "urban dictionary" does not really help. The upper case T on though is an anomaly though. Some of the examples you provided are non English. (What up though? - I have no idea what that means. ) So I remain confused. Thank you for attempting to enlighten a grumpy old pedant. Edit:- Personally I tend not to accept words that are not in the Macquarie Dictionary circa 2000. I find statements like - the get go- off of - an abomination. I am old fashioned.
  9. From The Age http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/player-agent-calls-for-legal-action-over-supplements-saga-20150810-givu34.html * Player agent Peter Jess has called on the AFL Players Association to take legal action against Essendon and the AFL for an alleged failure of duty of care in not preventing the Bombers' 2012 injecting program. Jess, who manages former Bomber Nathan Lovett-Murray, will meet with players' association executive Ian Prendergast and lawyer Brett Murphy on Tuesday to argue why action should be taken. ■Worksafe Victoria confirmed on Monday it was still investigating the AFL and Essendon for alleged breaches of occupational health and safety, having cleared the nine remaining Victorian clubs in February.
  10. The son of Ted Cordner kicked 111 goals for the season in the 1981 Under 19's side, including 12 against Hawthorn in the Semi Final, and won a premiership before graduating to the seniors the next year. His debut season was ruined by injury, and he was demoted to the supplementary list a month into the year. Knee surgery eventually ended his year on three senior matches. Cordner returned but continued to be a regular on the injury list across 1983 before finally playing a breakout season in 1984 where he booted 32 goals in 17 games. Despite a career high seven goals in the Round 1, 1985 victory over Fitzroy, Cordner failed to kick a goal between round 9 and round 20 that year and Ron Barassi experimented with him as a defender later in the season. A broken collarbone suffered during a 1986 practice match against Geelong delayed Cordner's start until Round 8 and he only booted three goals for the whole season. Cordner played one game in 1987 before being dropped, and had his jaw broken in aReserves game. He didn't play another match for the season and crossed to Sydney in1988 as a replacement for Warwick Capper who had just defected to the Brisbane Bears. They paid $60,000 to beat out offers from Footscray and Geelong, but Cordner's stay was not successful as he kicked just three goals in five games before ending his VFL career.

  11. Damn, I cannot read when commas are missing and upper & lower case is mixed up. Thank you. I am such an old fart when it comes to the written word.
  12. He is still a big healthy unit. Had some back issues that he couldn't get right, went to Sydney bad back finished career. Has some young cousins that can play.
  13. Sperm, i know it is a silent h in hasta la vista but it is not invisible.
