Deebauched

That betting scandal involving a corrupt AFL umpire got swept under the carpet pretty quick. Bunch of grubs the AFL. Why is McLacklan still hanging around like a fart in a elevator?

Kayne Cornes says., "hold my beer!"

A fit Dixon will also give them something to kick to. I would put them ahead of Carlton to make the eight.

Sad. We live in a world where media knobs who talk into a mic would struggle to get decent employment outside of sport or corporate politics. It works and thats why its sad.

Most interesting point is Port dont appear to have anything to offer/trade and Crows already recruited forward star Rankine for gazillions of cash. That leaves WA sides. Good chance he re-signs and goes for the big coin in his mid twenties.

Its all on again in 17 days. Carlton losing would be a great start to the Round. SEN commentators will freak out.

The media speculation wont let up until he signs. Very destabilising for the club.

After kicking 12g 18b 90 points and winning the game by 5 goals DL posters will say...... "if we play like that against the better sides we'll get thrashed".

We get police footage daily here. Shootings and drug arrests the norm. Cops have a new tool. Simple but highly effective. Very long two pronged head on a pole. Cops can pin an assailant by his neck against the wall without getting near him. Victoria police would love it.

yeah, good call. And how many times have Haw and Coll played eagles in Perth and Geelong at Karak Castle. And how many times in the same year. We usually play the crows in Adelaide as well although AFL couldnt fit it in this season.Did however kick us down to Tassie again. I dont mind playing 7 or 8 interstate our win record is the best in the comp. AFL treats some clubs better than others. Hawthorn should of gone to the Cattery this year not us FFS

No problem. Never been down to the cattery and never will. Can't understand why supporters punish themselves going down there. Slim chance at best of winning.

Geelong will make the 8 for the 1000th time . A key Melb'ne player will get injured by a careless act down at Mordor stadium late in the season. The umpires will be just as hopeless as usual. Caroline Wilson will predict a Tigers flag and will suck up to the new AFL CEO.

No thanks. Went to the Adelaide casino in 1990 lost 50 dollars in about 30 minutes . Walked out while i still had money in my wallet. Never been to a casino since. Thai gov proposing to establish Bangkok's first casino. Itll be a bloodbath. Police mafia & military mafia fighting it out with Thai Chinese mafia.

Salem not on the list today. Hope his neck/throat problem is fixed before R1. We need him.

Serong has a Geelong connection so they will be the frontrunner for sure.

There are barely enough quality players to go around in the 18 team comp. Nineteen teams would be a disaster. Every week about 50 good players dont play due to being injured. Thats two teams that 'never' play. The standard has already fallen. A Melbourne based side would have to relocate or fold. Let Tassie own and foot the bill. Why should the AFL keep funding these non performering clubs. Do GWS and Suns ever get audited? Theyre getting 50m in the next handout.

True, but the club is still bigger than the player although alot of players dont see it that way. Its starting to look like he might take the gamble of having a big season then sign for $ mid or later in the year. That makes sense from his managers position.

Collingwood can afford to be arrogant and always get what they want. They have a massive following due to bogans having lots of kids. Collingwood would fill a stadium in the African Congo if they were scheduled there. They'll pull 80,000 R1 against the spoilt kittens. Geelong supporters may not even turn up but the pies will. Melb v Bulldogs maybe 45k mostly dees supporters. Doubt if their supporters will turn up in numbers.

March is just around the corner and we will be playing R1 soon after. Pickett still to re-sign. May signed up again and he would be a more valuable player. He cant keep the club in limbo after all the speculation last year re LJ.

Really ?! If that were the case surely he'd of taken it. GWS wouldnt have offered much more money than mfc. Bedford is a fringe player at best who may or may not improve his consistency.

I didnt understand the logic of giving Smith another season but Bedford no cigar. Maybe he wouldnt of done his hammy if still training with MFC. Will not forget that brilliant play against Hawthorn. Dusty would have been impressed.

Where is Goodwin? Is he still our coach. LOL I havent heard from him since about Nov draft.

You can add another 180 days to that total. With the Weed as a focal point EssenDun arent heading North.
