Great to see rudeboy get an appearance in the story as well.

I think we can win 10 games next year. Like has been said, we could have won 7 this year, but what would it have achieved?

Great news RudeBoy. Can't wait to see Liam go around on Friday.

I think given Jack's ability to read the play and the flight of the ball, half back flank, but rotating through the midfield.

No changes to either side. Jack is starting on the pine. Good decision - gives the crowd a better chance to welcome him to the game. Should be a fair roar when he comes on.

If it's possible, I wouldn't mind one either. I'm keen to give it a go. Thanks in advance.

West Coast will win 2 more. Should we try and trade for another top 5 pick? Christensen or Lucas would be good, as well as Scully and Butcher.

75406.

It's the around the ground stuff where we have been thrashed in the last 2 weeks. The taps aren't quite as important, except this week we have Lade and Shaun Burgoyne's combination to deal with, especially close to goal. Hopefully Meese can stick with Lade and Brogan around the ground.

If you're driving over, leave the car at the motel. Otherwise it'll be worth less by the time you get back to it.

Seeing as it's a scum website I won't be reading it (almost as bad as going to a Dawks site), but my question is where are the scum predicted to finish? Anywhere above 11th is way too hopeful. They are [censored] and rely on the old blokes in the team to get it done. James Hird could turn up tomorow and still be their best player.

That's so cool RudeBoy - 'I Work At My Machine' was one of my favourite songs when I was 13 or 14. Happy days. Are you going to see Madness when they are here in the next few weeks? Also, all the best of luck to Liam on Saturday.

Which is where most of the articles about the club come from. Seems we can't crack it for much of a mention in the HUN, being the Collingwood newsletter and all.

Of course - it all comes down to money, and the less the AFL have to pay out of their coffers, the more left for trips to the Superbowl etc.

If Mr A.D. changed Mission's mind, why didn't he change it so they became our sponsor?

I wonder if the Dogs signing up for $1.5 million per year compared to us negotiating and almost signing up for $2 million per year, as mentioned in the article, was a major influence in the final decision? Were we asking for too much? Anyway, still 12 days until our first NAB Cup game so plenty of time for something to be sorted.

Negotiating with a new sponsor before the current arrangement expires isn't bad form. Manchester United recently found out that AIG won't be renewing after the current contract expires in June 2010, and since then have been in negotiations with selected organisations for July 2010 onwards. They are asking for upwards of 20 million pounds and it appears that there won't be much trouble in getting it. I would have thought we would have explored other options even if Primus were going to extend, just in case. Anyway, hopefully something arrives soon.

He's a good bloke - very funny too. He owns a holiday home where I live and we have the occasional chat about the Dees. I think he was one of the 150 Heroes announced earlier in the year.

I think it might be Bendigo.

They should be banned from the site, picking those soft frontrunners. I chose Geelong - a pleasure to watch, even when hammering us. Other choices would have been St Kilda (for Robert Harvey) and Brisbane.

Looks like I just put Naita in front by 1. Sounds like he plays more like a mid than a ruckman.

4th year as a country/interstate member. Get across from Hobart for at least one game a year. We always win when I go for some reason.

Over 100 points now. Just great.

I'm not sure who we can actually beat on this form. Looks like being a very long year.

This is great, but not unexpected. I'm expecting some floggings this year.
