  1. Ah, thanks mate. Far out, a 5 year plan at Richmond... Never thought I'd see the day!
  2. I still can't believe Jonesy is our 10th most capped player. As a bit of trivia, I was looking through the 99 draft today (as you do) and found it a pretty interesting draft. The top 30 yielded Pavlich, Corey, Glass, Murphy, Green and J. Brown as a F/S. Players outside the top 30 include; Chapman, Giansiracusa, Davis, Ling, Hille, Gilbee, Enright, Bateman, Whelan, O'Keefe, Ben Johnson, Bruce and Hargrave. Ah, that distracted me from our horrendous injury list for a little while.
  3. That's current. A game that happened 24 years ago is in the past and if you're still angry or sad about it you should probably think about moving on. Clubs like Hawthorn and Essendon don't obsess over lost opportunities, they just look to win the next one. Maybe you should change your username to whinger? Seriously mate, put a smile on your dial.
  4. Brad Green was pick 19. And for every quality player after pick 50 you name, I could probably find at least two that are not/never were. Liam Jurrah's case cannot be used because of the circumstances of him entering the draft. Did you have high expectations of Aaron Davey in 2003? Or when we picked up Bruce from MHSOB in 99? I doubt it.
  5. I think you're joking if you say you didn't see glimpses in the Essendon game. Aside from their run on in the first quarter and a bit of a fade out in the last (after a 5 day break) we controlled much of the game I thought. A lack of a forward structure killed us but our midfield was on top and the players were generally backing themselves when they had the footy.
  6. Round 1, assuming Morton, Jurrah, Bell, Aussie and Sylvia are the only injuries (I've probably forgotten others). B: Frawley Warnock Bennel HB: MacDonald Garland Rivers C: Bruce Moloney Green HF: Bate Watts Dunn F: Davey Miller Petterd Fo: Jamar Grimes Jones Int: Martin Scully Trengove Mcdonald If Davey, Grimes and Frawley are out for some reason; Strauss, Cheney and Maric come in and I possibly shoot myself in the face.
  7. Move on bro. History is great, but hanging on to 24 year old pain is just ridiculous for a sporting incident. Move on
  8. Are we able to put a scores ONLY thread? It can get a bit tricky following scores through the mire of discussion
  9. Thanks very much. This thread made me smack myself in the face about 5 times. Far out
  10. Are we trying to jinx all our young players? And 2014, I know what you mean but I had to laugh - the only other one you think could go 22 rounds uninjured is currently injured.
  11. Haha good pick up. Roost, it's a bit of a worry that one of your favourite players is an uncapped Port Adelaide player! As for Rivers, without injuries in the team I'm not sure I'd have him in - that's just me though. I can see his value and see no reason why he can't get back into the best 18/22 in my view.
  12. Does anyone know how we rank in terms of goals-inside 50 ratio? I remember hearing last year that we were up there. If our midfield improves the way we think it will and if Garland can make the transition from back to forward (if that's what Bailey intends) then perhaps all is not lost
  13. 45hg16? I'm up for a game in the red and blue. Seriously though, no one should be promoted unless they are being put into the 22 that week. A possible exception would Jordie because of the circumstances that saw him on the RL, but he would possibly be in the 22 anyway.

    And these while you're at it.
  15. They also said shoulder or elbow... I'll wait
  16. FOUR FEET OFF THE GROUND IN THE SKY AND CAUGHT IT 2 INCHES OFF THE GROUND. TIPPET OR WALKER AHHHH BY BONER IS TOO BIG TO COMMENTATE
  17. We always do thing of them as cellar dwellers. You'd expect Adeliade to win quite easily. Far Canal.
  18. Almost full time for quarter time.
