The Emblem

I am in and will be the foundation the league is built upon....(meaning probably come stone motherless last)

Very Nice, I like very much!

Exactly, in PJ and Spencer we have two ruckmen with a real heart for the contest.

From Port Power to Hobart Hydro?

Rudeboots...has Liam grasped the irony of moving all the way from central Australia to live with a guy who plays in a band called the strange tenants?

Thanks Petjud, and with all the recent troubles exactly how are things going for the Afghan Football League?

Well done Rudeboy!

As an anecdote the club (unless the situations been sorted in the past two weeks) is looking for a host family to take in Liam Jurrah and his girlfriend. If anyone can help out please contact the club, I'd suggest that Ian Flack would be the best person to talk to re this matter.

Takes a lot of us back to our teenage years Hannabal.

In addition to Rivers and Garland we now have Martin, Warnock and Frawley in the mix and Tom McNamara is very young and I think will develop into another tall back, we have an embarrassment of riches down there now. Our midfield stocks were undermanned and that's been addressed by the last two drafts. Key forwards, we took the best player available and held back the PSD draft pick again for the best prospect available. With the club had a choice, tall forward with definite X factor V "God knows what ruckman", I'm happy with their choice. They tried to address ruck stocks with Warnock, given his price tag, fitness, I prefer Spencer anyway.

In the last 2 years we've added the following players 2 Ruckmen: Meesen and Spencer# 8 Midfielders / Utilities: Morton, Grimes, Blease, Strauss, Jetta, Bail, Bennell, Valenti# 2 Small Forwards: Maric, Wonaemirri 1 Small back: Cheney, 2 Tall backs: Martin, McNamara (I think he is still growing) 3 Tall forwards: Watts, Jurrah, Zomer# Plus Mckenzie# and Healey# Looking at that list I think the last two years has been quite balanced and that its been addressing the most critical holes that we have on our list...classy, pacy midfielders and key forwards. Whilst it would be great if there was an all-Australian ruckman on our list (next year Jake?), from the last two drafts who would you suggest we have taken, and which player would we have had to have missed out on in order to get them?

Outsourcing does have its downsides, I don't know whether to laugh or cry at that one but let the club know that there's a problem so that they can nip it on the bud (I hope). Re the Age subscription it starts as soon as you pay for it. To get it sorted call the Age subscription # 13 66 66, it's a call centre so have a thermos of tea handy because it will probably take awhile.

Well perhaps, and sadly its not the time of the economic cycle to be snaring our spiritually aligned car sponsor, the trident emblazoned Maserati. Back to reality (maybe), looking forward to the footy show, hope some good news comes to light.

Do FFS play BGS in the APS or are they part of the GPS?

As much as its entertaining to have a go at the Pies, I tend to agree with mo64 on this one. Whilst I'm all for protecting the heads of AFL players, I didn't think Maxwell did anything particularly reckless and that it was just an unfortunate outcome.

Well played Hoopla. I'm not sure if it was personal inspiration, inside information or clairvoyant ability, but if it is the latter then what's the estimated price for buying you in this years Footy Tipping Calcutta?

With all due respects backing up highly sensitive and confidential information by quoting sources and/or facts on an internet forum would be the height of irresponsibility.

A huge step up from last years monstrosity and I'd bet a truckload more popular (and therefore commercial) with our younger members. A change for the better!

It's shocking footage indeed. Rumours (unconfirmed) of bad blood between the two, apparently things are so fractious those two couldn't even agree on the price of cardboard.

They sponsor the dee's so Go Volvo! I proudly wear my red volvo cap with the MFC badge on the side. My carltank supporting brother made a smartarse crack about it recently, I shut him up with a one word reply HYUNDAI

Thats a peach of an idea...who's going to dangle the carrot?

Thanks for the good news story Norwood Redleg. I'm not sure what profit / loss the club is making on the "little devil" membership but one thing it does do is illustrate to the AFL that there is a new generation of supporter coming through.

Dear Jack, why the assumption it's their game...it's at our ground, it's our game! :angry:
