  1. I don't think we took Watts because of what he was, but rather what he would become. But until then, we need Newton in the forward line. Underrated and much maligned. Too bad he's a rookie now.
  2. Yeah. It's hilarious to me that we've got a coach trying to copy the Premiership-winning strategy of his boss from six years ago, when not even that guy is still using his old plan.
  3. Somebody said "He'll be good for us if we don;t manage to coace all the Brisbane out of him," and I thought "Ha! How true that is!"
  4. I think he meant "rookie" in the broader "young-player" sense.
  5. I guess it's not "sharing" when you're sharing someone else's stuff without their say-so.
  6. Need it be said I'd love double-d's on my chest!
  7. What about "Wara Warlpiri Warrior"? Sounds catchier to me.
  8. Cale Morton is the first person younger than me to play for Melbourne.
  9. Is it just me or does that picture remind you of a Jim Henson muppet's legs?
  10. When I'm scrolling down a thread, reading its' posts, I'll often see one from WhyYouLittle and I'll think to myself...next... But his point is right. Having an extended floating fixture would screw a lot of things up.
  11. I think you have seriously underestimated the sheer size (and stupidity) of the Internet.
  12. This is not the way to chase a Premiership. Do you think Geelong would have lined their list up against the 2006 Premiership Eagles side. Every winner of the flag over my time of watching footy has won with a game-style that is unique and original. Having said that, your comparisons are apt, if a little hopeful.
  13. Two Words: Fuckin' A. I would have been devo if my favourite player (Chook), who I named myself after, and then the Flash, who I think should be captain and (again) named myself after, left in the space of a couple of days. I'm pumped! Go Dees.
  14. LOL at those Joke Watts clips. They are hilarious. God he looks like a mistake in those videos. But we'll see . . .
  15. No big pack marks or long bombs/high-pressure set-shots made the top five. In my opinion, there should be more of those considered. There's something to be said for a dead-straight, good-looking drop-punt from outside 50 in a big moment in a game. Also I would like to see more team-goals recognised. Not just the flashy but suprisingly easy boundry-line snap.
  16. Am I the only one who thinks Carlton are going to be very good next year?
  17. He would have won the coveted Andy Maher medal for biggest bogan on Grand Final Day.
  18. Why would anyone go to Bali? It seems like more trouble than it's worth to me.
  19. I wonder if any of the offers he's received are from actual AFL clubs.
