  1. Looks like a young Hawk will get it this week.
  2. Macadamia nut cookies at Subway are quite delicious. How come there is a dot at the start of my quote?
  3. Well this may help you. We lost to Port by a kick in Adelaide. We had no forward line and copped a few bad umpire decisions. Pies beat Port by a kick at the G and everyone says how good the Pies are and that they are back. Yes we had a bad one against the Lions but we have lost 7 games by under 24 points this year and several where we were leading with minutes to go.
  4. Saints could beat the Dogs for Lenny.
  5. For starters don't think we will have pick 2. GWS want Petracca. They will forfeit the game to us. I can see it now. "Sorry we thought the game was in New Guinea and we are all here by the pool."
  6. His Coach joined the long line of commentators who were stunned he wasn't given at least 2 weeks. We have to learn, as someone already said on here," the head is sacrosant, unless it is a Melbourne player." Sylvia says "Hi" to Eagle Josh Kennedy.
  7. Recovering from appendix removal.
  8. So it's a "yes" from you.
  9. Think you got ripped off on the odds.
  10. I think he should lead with Jack Nicholson's great line "you can't handle the truth".
  11. Though it worked for several other clubs who chose wisely in their early selections and had success on the back of it.We chose badly, paid the penalty for that and paid again as the only club targeted for punishment for a practice that was deemed acceptable by the governing body and the whole competition.
  12. Hawks now starting to whinge about equalisation. Happy of course with their draw and other privileges.
  13. Today's "post of the day " winner.
  14. I don't think people are critical of his honesty, but rather that he got it wrong, very wrong.
  15. Not really, her family is wealthy and they may have put a large part of the purchase price and it is not uncommon for those who think their assets could be attacked in the future, to put them in the names of a family member.
  16. Agree and I couldn't see us letting Kent go. He is a young, hard goer, with some pace and a strong left foot kick. I also think Fitzy will be given another year.
  17. Anyone going to the game this weekend? I just can't motivate myself to go.
  18. Incorrect, Grimes was 5 metres out on a slight angle to his left. An absolute gimme, as was Jordie's. I said the same with Grimes as I said with Jordie, bet you he will miss. They both did. I am not trying to be a genius or a smart arse, only someone who watches his team and knows that some of them kick worse than my 4 year old grand daughter. With the money they get and the practice they have, there is absolutely no excuse, none. I am sure Roos will get rid of most of the worst.
  19. Long term, I would venture to say none. The player that seemed most upset at the time, has just had his best year and will probably finish 2nd in the Bluey behind Jones. Dunn, for those that don't know who I am referring to. I think it was a poor statement by Roos and unfortunately he repeated it again today. We had an extraordinarily poor day on sunday, so did Roos. Shows he is human. Anyone who thinks Jordie missed that goal because we tanked, or Dawes, who was not on the list then, missed that handball to Blease because we tanked, or Vince who was not on the list then, missed that pass to Blease because we tanked, or Riley, who was not on the list then, passed that pathetic pass to Viney because we tanked, etc, etc, etc, is just kidding themselves.
  20. Couldn't agree more. It has been proved over and over.
  21. The difference is that you have picked a couple of failures at some clubs, we failed nearly every pick for 8 years. Give us 6 good players instead of some of our duds and how different would we be?
  22. Pick 20 could get you Mitchell from the Swans. I am not too proud to take that. We fit the criteria to get one, that is, being pathetic for a long time.
  23. Rubbish. Watch the video, it does. He has done it a number of times. He hits Pedo in the face with a forearm and his hand then touches the ball. All after Pedo has marked it. He didn't have to strike him, he chose to. I personally don't give a rats he got off. However every expert including Carey, who always says let em off, says he deserved 2 at a minimum. Those who said it tonight were Carey, Darcy, Watson, Dunstall, Healy, Sheahan, Huddo, Robbo and then Bomber and Roos by their smiles and refusal to comment.The only dissenting voice is Lynch his manager.
  24. To be honest who cares if he got off, it doesn't affect us.
