Changes v GWS Giants
They do a survey! How do they do it, phone calls (landline-mobile), mail, e-mail people in the street, internet poll? What demographics are the people asked? What was the question? Are you a member of a sporting side? If you had to barrack for an AFL side who would it be? What AFL side to you barrack for? Who do you want to win the AFL premiership? Different questions can get different answers. How is the information gathered extrapolated? Do you put the same weight on the interviews conducted outside Richmond station on game day to random phone calls to people in Cairns? Who paid for the survey? What answer did they want? What if Sydney FC was looking for a new sponsor and they paid for it. What if a Gold Coast sponsor paid for it? These things can effect an outcome. Like tobacco companies paying for research into tobacco related illness, or vitamin companies researching efficacy of their own product. Take it with all grain of salt. When I am approached by a research company I always skew my answers to suit an outcome that I choose.

Changes v GWS Giants
Oscar is 22yo, Wagner 24, Keilty 23. Petty is the only younger key back he is 19 and not ready as we saw earlier in the season. OMac is fine.

Support Melbourne
Just had a look, there is heaps on Buller I reckon it will still be there GF day unless we get lots of rain. As for chucking it in I would rather an amputation. The scars that I carry from being a Melbourne supporter since the late 50'S define me. I could have been a well balanced friendly amiable person but instead I support Melbourne. PS I know you are taking the pizz

Was the win against West Coast rigged?
Thanks Ethan, providing actual stats like that proves it must be true. But seriously can you imagine the AFL keeping anything a secret?

Was the win against West Coast rigged?
Rigged! Really, what a load of rubbish. Do you really think that the AFL are well enough organised to rig anything?

Ethan, I thought the caring you would drop into casualty to visit the Wet Toast supporters that slashed their wrists. I hope your little one recovers quickly. Go Dees

Umpiring v West Coast in Perth
- If we beat Meth Coast I will ...
Game or stupid? I'm game. (Probably stupid too.)- Champion Data Must be High
I hate it when someone says what I am secretly thinking.- Gawn on SEN (15/8)
Sorry OD, the one I want to hear is Jones holding up the cup saying we [censored] did it!- Ex MFC players at another club
Jeff Farmer- Stats- Only One Needed.
Funny that you can say bastard but not [censored] (whip a horse)- Allen Jakovich on The Front Bar (9/8)
Brian Dixon likes a chat, will tell you he was best on ground in 64- Red Card Rule
The send off rule would manage itself. Players would not risk the penalty and coaches would not tolerate it. It may never be enforced. I am for it. I was the 2000 gf and if in force then I don't think the violent acts would have happened. Sitting by the pool in Penang time for a Tiger. - If we beat Meth Coast I will ...
