    The last time my car was stolen it was found by the police sitting in the driveway of a house in Melton. They told me they just happened to be driving past and suspected it was stolen since it was plastered in MFC stickers. šŸ˜‚

    This must be post of the week....

    I’m not sure why Judd is nicknamed ā€œknucklesā€ but I reckon it suits him and it’s stuck now anyways.

    I'm told that he looks like craig sholl (late of Norf) whose nick name was knuckles, I think

    What does Spargo do that Kosi doesn't/cant?

    Not get reported?Ā  It is not a question of who is the better footballer, Kosi by a mile, but who gives way.Ā  My thoughts are like er JJ/Sparrow to the sub to make room.Ā  Glad I am not a selector.

    Weideman having a shocker

    for a very ordinary player i think he is playing a blinder; cant mark or win a contest but he does present and bring the ball to the ground; (coz he DROPPED it)

    The bad news gets worse.Ā  Much worse in fact.

    Rumour has it that Bayley Fritsch has a library book that is TWO DAYS overdue.

    I remember returning a library book, damaged, and got brought before the head librarian for a severe dressing down. And told to empty my wallet.

    Nope.Ā 
    early teens we had tall forward, Casey regular. First game v Geelong, I think Jamar went down.Ā 
    Kid had to ruck.Ā 
    Sure it was a Smith.Ā 
    Brother in law taught him, up Belgrave way

    The Smith who was thrown into the ruck when Jamar went down in 2006 was Nick

  7. That is interesting.Ā  In his book Shaun Burgoyne said indigenous were over represented at AFL level.Ā  But regardless any program that gives indigenous or under priveliged a pathway way to success or higher status is a good thing.

    I can understand why the AFL has the top 40 going to the draft else clubs will try and hide players in the NGA (Remember WCE and Brett Heady to the bush)

    That's the dilemma.

    We want them to be good, but not TOO good otherwise they get drafted early by another team.

    The AFL really needs to re-think their selection criteria for NGA prospects because the current system defeats the purpose of the scheme and doesn't provide suitable incentive for clubs to participate.

    What is the purpose of the scheme?
