  1. Is it possible to maintain cardiovascular fitness while wearing a moon boot?
  2. I'm probably Moloney's biggest critic on this site. I was "bashing" him when it was uncool, but it would be silly to talk about delisting him now. I am, however, flabbergasted that he hasn't yet been dropped. Green, Davey and Sylvia all have, but Moloney hasn't? It strikes me as very odd. I may be reading more into this than I should, but perhaps Neeld's continual backing of Beamer is a considered strategy to either a) get him onside, b ) find SOME way for him to figure in our future, c) raise his trade value for next year, or d) create evidence the club can point to in negotiations with Beamer's management in an attempt to justify a vastly smaller contract for next year. EDIT: Damn smoking demon. I don't use emoticons, so I find it highly annoying when b{bracket} turns into B)
  3. MOLONEY, MOLONEY, A THOUSAND TIMES MOLONEY!!!!!!!
  4. I have a feeling it's just a precaution. You'd think that Brett Kirk might spend a bit of time following it up. No such luck. We did get an interview with Sheeds in the box, though.
  5. You say that like he would have experienced 100 point victories week after week at the Dees.
  6. I didn't mean it as a criticism at all. The game IS pretty much over.
  7. Comical from McDonald. Great to see Davey giving us something, albeit in a game that's already over.
  8. Should have been dropped about a month ago. Really do not rate him at all.
  9. On ya, Davey. I don't think there's anyone who doesn't want him to succeed. Let's hope he can.
  10. Jamar roving his own ruckwork. Who needs Nic Nat?
  11. At least three of GWS's goals came from catastrophic Melbourne errors. I wish I wish I wish we could iron those out of our game. We'd be a ten goal better side.
  12. That's the ever-realiable Essendon realism for you.
  13. But all this crap is in the papers because GWS is playing Melbourne today. Hence, you are responding to today's game - whether you like to admit it or not. I'm not saying that's a bad thing. People comment on relevant issues all the time. I wouldn't call Sheed a relevant issue at the best of times, but I could see why you might be interested in what he has to say today of all days. And you are interested. If you weren't, then you wouldn't have even noticed anything he said.
  14. If it's not connected to our game against GWS, then why'd you wait till now to post? Who gives a toss about Kevin Sheedy?
  15. Luke Darcy may be a [censored] of the highest order, but one of his frequent comments is that "things are never as good as they seem and they're never as bad as they seem." Too true. If only he'd follow his own advice and stop calling people "Elite" all the time.
  16. I disagree. I think he takes it upon himself to run and break lines, even when he shouldn't. It's in his nature, and while it's a quality that is often very useful, it can become disruptive to the gameplan because of its unpredictability.
  17. People always talk about being "professional." Can anyone actually tell me what that even means?
  18. About Morton: either I'm the only sane man in a world of footy morons, or (more likely) Cale's performance against the Pies sucked more than I thought it did. Still, I'm sorry to see him out. I'm even more sorry to see Blease dropped.
  19. And to support the theory, you used two of the best players in the competition? Why not use countless other selfish guys like Daniel Motlop, Nick Davis, Colin Sylvia, and so on.Franklin and Ablett are successful despite their selfishness, not because of it. And I don't even know if Ablett is even that selfish.
