  1. Bullies at $4.25 1-39 is value oops wrong thread sorry Den!
  2. Francis Leach and Bob Murphy or even our own Robbo. Im currently in Ubud and lost my carefully assembled and pampered cool with Bruce barracking for Sydney. He was looking for Sydney free kicks and referring to "Royal Randwick" when ours were obvious to me and even Ketut could see it.
  3. As always with this talk you have to figure what would others pay for players we might find are hard to squeeze into our top 22. Its no use saying "we would never trade ..." when you are targeting other sides players. For example we might think Oscar and Frosty are extraneous but a St Kilda or Carlton might think they are worth a round 2 pick each. I wouldnt be surprised if St kilda would give up their round one for Petracca. You put a round one and two together and now your talking.
  4. Yet there are 3 tomorrow starting before 4:45.
  5. For those that have an occasional bet on the Dees, Beteasy is doubling the bet on our match. so up to $25 is paying $2.35 So that = $47 times 2. This is only for our match.
  6. His statement is interesting. After saying he apologizes "Unreservedly", he adds that the apology is to "anyone who took it that way". This "if you were offended" tripe is added so when questioned, you can then say "Were you offended"? Why". It is aimed to make anyone who asks him about it, be put on the back foot to justify their outrage. he did it against Goodes as well. It is the opposite of Unreservedly apologising.
  7. Paul Roos worked that 2015 draft superbly making Swans bid high for Callum Mills then choosing Oliver over Parish. Roos is the gift that keeps giving, 8 years later.
  8. I know what Kielty can bring and he will continue to improve. But Id much rather see Pruess and the machinations that will or wont happen with him in the side.
  9. It was a mistake to keep playing Joel, although he kept kicking goals. This thread is going to go ballistic with DLers outrage.
  10. The manner Ralph was speaking I understood he was saying that he has been seen out everywhere and often. I get that it is possible that it could have been false sightings. Thats not how it sounded.
  11. Amazingly big call by Jon Ralph who isnt normally as outlandish as most. He also said Hoges has been seen out more than Elvis over summer. Really worried about Jesse Hogan now. Hope it is being exaggerated.
  12. Robbo doesnt think it is mental health. He almost said it. He said Shwarter said it on the radio. He seemed to quote Leonard Cohen. Everybody Knows.
  13. I dont see the point. Everyone knows the Tribunal will justify weird decisions. Its like blaming Jane Bunn for the weather arguing whether he is guilty or not. I thought May would be in trouble, but Im rapt we are contesting it. The big clubs seem to contest all the decisions. This is a positive move.
  14. Getting up and jogging off doesnt really mean much in my experience. In my day there was no concussion test. I understand it was a true story that a tall Richmond forward came off wobbly after being lined up and Slug Jordan said to Tommy, he doesnt know who he is. Tommy said "Tell him he is Royce Hart and put him at centre half forward".
  15. Many people seem to forget what its like to be hit up and down when you arent braced against someone leaning into it. Id say many dont remember or (more likely) just dont know. He got him a good one. Very good chance of AFL making a martyr here and a possible 2 weeks if we go on to appeal. I also thought Clarry was lucky to escape with a fine after what AFL had said about punches to the gut.
  16. The $3.25 for Poor Adelaide is starting to entice.
  17. Criticism should be toned to the the time of the year. I expect Hibberd will get back to fantastic form but his game yesterday should be noted. I cant see how commenting on it is "writing him off".
  18. So Hibberd gets a let off with "it is early doors", but ANB and Oscar cop unrelenting criticism?
  19. Im really surprised Hibberd has escaped DL wrath. I thought he looked like he didnt know or thought he can get away with having slowed down. Shades of Brian Wilson, when just losing that little bit of toe can be a problem.
  20. Why do we continue to deliberately kick to top of the goal square? all high slow balls coming in.
  21. Rohan Connolly hates Melbourne. he was hoping we were going to fold 7 years ago and he couldnt have been happier.
  22. Best description. He is as effective physically as Voss, but moves with the grace of Simon Black.
  23. In watching Weids I was impressed that his opposition seemingly just stepped in front of him and held his place while the ball was coming down but not in the 5 metre exclusion. There was probably more to it. This effectively stopped his 2 step launch at the pack. Even the 1st time I realised the Tigers had put work into not letting him approach on his own terms without giving away a free. But the whistle must have been close to the mouth.
