GOOOOOO THE LIONS!!!!

And also, what if we had picked up Naita, who goes on to be a star, but in three years time wants to go back home so we lose him for peanuts? Jack Watts is the man for us. Whatever happened, happened, what's done is done, and what's meant to be is meant to be. EDIT: Jack Watts, not Jack Watt's. I would have had to hang myself if I let that one go.

If with a corrupted mind we should either think or act, then suffering follows that. If with a wholesome mind we should ether think or act, then happiness follows that. If Rance tried to get Green or Selwood injured, then it would be Karma.

If we got Pav AND picks one and two, we'd be set up for quite a side.

I am dead against it. St Kilda will win it if it's played at Docklands. Geelong will win it if it's played at the 'G. It's rostered to be played at the former. If moving the game may change the result, then it should not be moved. Forget gate takings or profits. If the AFL changes a game's result mid-season by moving a game, then the competition is compromised.

It's funny. I've never really had a dad. My mum left him and took me with her when I was very little. I've barely ever seen him since. If he died, I'd be sad, but it wouldn't have the same effect on me as if my mum died. People talk about how hard it is to lose a parent, but really, it's not about that at all. I would think it's more about losing anything you depend on for constancy. Clint's dad has been there for him his entire life. Now that he's gone, it's hard for him to adapt. But I don't have that problem. What I'm trying to say is that we've both lost our fathers, but it doesn't make me sad that I don't have mine, because I never really did. It seems that the more you have, the worse it hurts when you lose something. Poor guy.

If he gets dropped, will you be disappointed?

Now you've gone and made me feel inferior.

Orgasmic.

Sorry, I didn't hear a single word you said. What do you look like anyway? For some reason I can't see you.

Maybe the two teams' coaches have to climb to the bottom of a ladder and duke it out in real, actual tanks. Also they have to wear tank tops, too. That would solve the problem. But, knowing the AFL, the loser would probably get the No. 1 pick, so the two coaches would take the worn parts off the tank (to protect them, you know), rendering the vehicle totally undrivable. So the two tanks would just sit there for two hours until one of them ran out of fuel.

Give it a rest, Dappa. Some of us actually enjoy the entertainment.

OMG! That forwardline actually looks pretty good on paper. I'm tipping the dees by 5 - and I'm throwing a hundred down the gurgler on it too. Wish me luck!

Yeah, but knowing our luck, the roof would probably fall on him or he'd choke on his chewing gum or something.

I hope to hell Jack Watts doesn't injure himself during HIS lunch break. In fact, take him out of school altogether - it's clearly too dangerous!

Dying seconds . . . "Oops, I tripped." Missed free kick. Game decided. Fans mortified.

Any forward who kicks more goals in the reserves than his team kicked in the seniors deserves a call-up, regardless of age or fitness, in my opinion.

. . . As opposed to the insightful name digga. It's a shame we don't all have your wit when it comes to names.

I believe that's what they call a "knee-related ankle injury."

I know. Do you ever get "So, do you barrack for West Coast or the Dockers? What? You support who? Why would anyone want to barrack for Melbourne? What have they ever done?" I'm currently stranded in SA and substitute Adelaide and Port for the above, and you have an exact copy of a conversation I have at least once a week. Also, see sig.

Trust me. The Hawks are no good this year. I'm not talking "outside the eight" bad, but they're no Geelong or St Kilda. In fact, come to think of it, they may as well just play the Grand Final next week between the two obviously best teams in the competition. And then we can get on with getting our priority pick and get ready for next year.

I never thought the days of me almost dying of fright every time the ball came into our backline would disappear, but they have. No longer do I have to shut my eyes and curl up into a ball every time someone tries to handpass inside our defensive fifty. It's a shame it happened four years too late.
