  1. I thought Daisy was our expansion strategy into a new supporter base
  2. Brayshaw very clever demonstone, very clever. Job well done.
  3. 9 - Matthew Warnock?
  4. 9 Strawbs O’Dwyer?
  5. Round 4 1998, Carlton v Melb at Princes Park. Dees by 2 pts. Absolute cracker, within a goal all day. Nobody kicked a goal for the last 10 mins and the ball richocheted from one end to the other. It felt like one goal would finish it either way. I can’t remember having felt better leaving the ground giving [censored] to my blues supporting best mate.
  6. All that said, my current favourite player is 29. (number, not age)
  7. I don’t disagree with this at all Mud Dog. This is exactly how ive felt with OMac. But I guess the OMac example has taught me that by giving these kids games now, against my better judgement, they will be at both their physical peak with high levels of confidence when our run of four peat of flags commences.
  8. I should add the GF guarantee to my membership now.... nice summary IT.
  9. Wouldnt we just play St Kilda 11 times, Brisbane 6 times, Gold Coast 3 times and Collingwood twice all at the G?
  10. Honourable mention to S Tingay
  11. I barrack for the dees, AF. Does that count??
  12. Huge man crush on the great man. Hopefully Cooper is as big a talent, and has better knees. God knows I don’t want to cry again over another busted knee.
  13. Get there early next year Diamond, I reckon the G will be full.
  14. Completely agree on all scores, praha. I was only looking at it from the point of view that good sides like Adelaide are likely to be good again, do we have a run against those teams (as we do, running into finals); and despite fewer 6 day breaks; comparatively are we getting less rest than our opponents (we are). Teams we play next year may or may not buck the trend, the draw says to me we must be in a strong ladder position come the bye as we've got more travel and (expected) tougher opposition. Same could have been said this year, though, and we won some games I thought we'd lose. We're definitely good enough.
  15. The draw does us no favours. Negatives: - One Friday night game, in Adelaide - Playing 11 games against teams that have had more rest than us (7 games + 1 day, 3 games + 2 days and 1 game +6 days). Adelaide in Traeger park with 2 extra days rest will be tough. To balance that up, we only play 4 games where we’ve had additional rest over our opponents (3x +1 day, 1x +3 days) - Last 6 rounds include 5 against teams in this yrs top 8. Three of those road trips, and two of those three against teams with home team having extra rest (Geelong +2 days, WCE +1 day) - A lot of Sunday 3:20pm games (6). Not good for crowds, it’s an effing school night AFL. We’ve got 4 traditional Saturday/Sunday early afternoon games (2 home, 2 away). Timing of games not terrific for people wanting to take smaller kids along. Might pair back the membership level given I’m not going to get to a lot of these games. Positives: - Only 3 road trips in the 13 rounds before the bye - Playing 8 teams that finished 10th or lower, in the 12 rounds before the bye - If we make the finals, we’ll have earnt it.
  16. His success story in the forward line is another feather to the bows of the coaching staff for thinking outside the box. Despite his excellent kicking accuracy for goal, I still have to watch through my fingers with my hands over my eyes. I’m getting better at this however. i hope he’s our next Neita.
  17. LOL - we actually do have a literacy program! - read like a demon http://deezone.com.au/news/latest-news
  18. Snake Milkshake has a ring to it....
  19. Yeah - bring a machete to the footy next year to cut the cheese in the platter
  20. This didn’t get enough love, so I’m reposting it. nice work Moonie, I laughed my ass off
  21. Plus a picture of the 1964 premiership cup with rust on it
  22. Might have to drive to work, then home, and back into work again. Worth the effort.
  23. Awesome guys, awesome. Completely hung up on his fantasy fwd line of himself, Wiz, Neita, Ox, Lyon and Obst. That would have been something to see. Best work yet guys. Super effort.
