  1. Can't see it happening but he is the kind of player we need. Hard, relentless runner both ways. Great hands & his kicking improved significantly in his time at GWS. I'd have him back in an instant. Stuff living in the past
  2. That was Plan B. Plan A was to have a crack at him next year. Plan C it is Does anyone know if the club applied to the AFL for permission to trade next year's first round pick ? If so, were we successful ?
  3. I think you answered your own question
  4. They might take the Casey approach to naming players in position. Jake Best kicked 2 goals in that game. He has been through more clubs than Jack Nicklaus. Brief interview with him after his first game last season. There are a lot of familiar names in that comp. Including an A. Davey wearing #36 at Palmerston
  5. The Team Manager would certainly earn his keep filling out their team sheet ! Yep. He and a couple of others fresh from winning the EFL Divvy 1 flag with Vermont (including their coach) are named in the Tiwi team

    Rams, Ravens, Broncos still smarting from that overrule that cost the poor old Browns a win - and me a point !
  7. Agreed. We should take him on a tour of Jihad Stadium and Blundstone Arena to remind him of what the alternative is. He's exactly what we need playing the inside / outside role in tandem with Brayshaw. Not exclusively as a winger
  8. You might want to follow that one. Lowest rated horse in the race and put in a stunning run
  9. I didn't give a rats about the result until with a few minutes to go Jeremy Howe took a defensive mark. He's probably a nice bloke but right then I realised I never want to see him as a premiership player with Collingwood
  10. According to who ? Facebook ? Judd's grandma ?

  13. Isaac Heeney got Mark of the Year. Disappointing he didn't thank Pedo in his acceptance speech. That hospital pass onto Hogan's head was perfection
  14. He might struggle to swim his 100 km this off season
  15. That's my understanding as well. I've a vague recollection of an interview on World of Sport with Wayne Read, the MFC president of the day outlining the reasons for the split

    Bears, Pats, Steelers
  17. That's the heart of it. They've become what we were in our glory days of the '50's and '60's I don't hate Hawthorn. I admire and respect them and a lot of my favourite non-Melbourne players over the years have been Hawks Their supporters though - for the most part - give me the sh!ts. I knew about 3 of them growing up and now the bandwagoners are everywhere. If ever someone tells me they barrack for Hawthorn I always ask who their first team was. Add to that the fact that Glenferrie Oval used to be Range Rover Central and I'm pretty sure that the overwhelming majority of snow-goers are "Hawthorn barrackers". I wonder if my mum and her Demon mates were as smug as those pricks back in our heyday.

    Eagles Chargers Pats ......... and Brady over Rodgers
  19. Agreed. I understand our interest in him. I can't however understand his interest in us. He's signing on to a gig at Casey
  20. I thought he'd signed for another four years after his initial 6 year contract. I'd suspect he'd be well compensated but nowhere near the level of his original deal. Unlikely to be a salary cap dump option. Maybe he went somewhere to just check out the facilities while he's been injured

    Count me in again Simple and fun comp this. As well as being a lot more challenging than it looks to pick up points. Get on board ! Steelers Titans Bengals
  22. Would have loved to see him play a final in red & blue. Hope he feels he's accomplished what he set out to achieve when he decided to join us. He & Crossy in particular have been immense when it came to turning the club around on field. So glad he got to play his 100th game for us. Thanks Bernie
  23. He'll have played too many games. I believe it's under 21 years old and less than 10 games at the start of the season
  24. Agreed. Perfectly weighted. He then went and replicated it early in the third quarter with his pass to Gawn which set up our first goal of the second half. Two kicks of note !
  25. It looked better on TV than it did from behind the goals. Bit of a floater that seemed to dip at the goal at the last second. Great result for him though. He'll be ramming them through from 50 on a regular basis next year
