  1. Maybe it will take off and they'll build a sealed air conditioned indoor stadium for the future. Maybe get one built with world cup money.
  2. interesting point in the article about the geelong "interstate" trip with Brad Miller. He lost 3.8kg during the Darwin game. Thats alot to make back in one week.
  3. http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/dees-debutant-shows-quality-footy-smarts-20100529-wmk5.html
  4. don't mind them resting but its going to kill my dreamteam this week!!
  5. The extended stint in the 2nd's most likely helped him gets some of his confidence back. As he is a confidence player. His drop in performance was matched with the teams decline. While I'll never argue he's a game breaker but maybe a player that plays well in a good team, without being expected to kick 4/5 every week. Also the hawthorn and even west coast (post judd/cousins) are good examples. If you don't have a good midfield that can deliver the ball well into the forward line regularly all your forwards look crap. I like her has come back with a good game and hope he backs it up in the coming weeks.
  6. lol I was thinking it a a command in context - to go and seize the night oh yeah, its too late and the heart is still racing after that game.
  7. nox : is night carpe is the infinit - so you are "to seize" Which is correct. So Carpe Nox - does exactly match "to sieze the night" Given there are never exact translations between english and grammar I would say that would work.
  8. Latin for rough translation: Ab - from abeterno - eternity (roughly) so: since the beginning of time. Its also masculine for those that care
  9. who bloody cares, a win is a win even if it was so stressful
  10. anyone got tv footage, are they tired? on the radio they seem tired with little run.
  11. I heard he was going to be out on Wednesday on some website..guess its just confirmed now.
  12. Something different: melbourne et watts optimus sunt
  13. its been a point of discussion for the last 15 years, since maybe Kouta from Carlton as the first true athlete footballer that I remember. I prefer a footballer over an athlete as they know where to get the footy and give it. When an athlete players tends to do well when they play in the backvline. As forwards they really seem to fail as they have no footy brain, just good at getting to a contest.
  14. Going well, except traded in Hughes in a downgrade fro cash and to earn some more money. If there a complaint line to DB for dropping hughes this week for dreamteam !!! teaches me right for trading on a Wednesday. I thought he was traveling okay. Otherwise sitting around 2000-2100. will lose my first game this week in my local comp. Playing the leader of the pack. AS of next week I'm starting to upgrade the boys. for example trangove to swan.
  15. Very funny facebook group: goes great with this thread.... http://www.facebook.com/pages/Richmond-VA/I-hate-it-when-Im-kicking-the-footy-around-and-Richmond-try-to-recruit-me/116177261751551
  16. who cares, why bring up ex dee's player repeatedly.
  17. Just watch the delayed telecast here in the west. A game we should have won. I wont talk about the umpire overruling goal umpires and shocking decisions for out on the full. But I have to ask why did the umpires where red on their tops. More than once we handball directly to them obviously when catching a glimpse of red out of a pack. The club should make an official complaint. Aren't they meant to wear their clash jumpers, maybe yellow...
  18. Leave it alone. Brock gave his all for us when he was here and you can ask no more of a player. We really don't know why he left and the fact it was quickly done was a good reflection on the professionalism of the club. Personally I wish him all the best as he seemed like a nice bloke, and I hope he reaches his potential at Carlton in every game except when they play us.
  19. My thought exactly, north has always had more mature bodies than our boys and more tanactiy. something special in their drink?
  20. I agree that Carey deserves it. Is download spiral started after footy as it took away the stable thing in his life. Depending on the media reports you believe he's getting help and getting himself back on track. He was amazing to watch when playing and as a true champion could win a game by himself through pure determination.
  21. yes because we often went in circles from north pressure..Also their ball smothering was exceptional almost all day, some many of our kicks and handballs were smothered causing a turnover.
  22. he's just playing the game plan as instructed. North worked very hard in covering options against use, restricting run. On the bright note, he gave me a great dreamteam score!
  23. Hmmm I think we should kick more goals than them, then I think we're in for a real chance
