  1. the other annoying aspect is when they bring in a new interpretation and apply it with over-kill, then gradually during the season scale it back dramatically. good example this year was the deliberate out of bounds. red hot initially, now rarely paid (thankfully) another has been the "sacrosanct" head contact we saw a couple of years ago has been scaled back (and seems to coincide with more concussions) just talking about the inconsistency over a relatively short period of time. it seems to be more an exercise of experimentation than common sense
  2. why would connors care about whether essendon gets overs. there is no money in that for him? his prime concern would be getting the highest contract for hibberd
  3. alternatively you could take a few minutes to learn how to navigate the site. it really is very straight-forward
  4. Zeus is very pi$$ed off. The scummers must have offered a bigger placation
  5. you make a very salient point, uncle..... ah, the problems of paganism.....
  6. our fate is in the hands of zeus i wonder if uncle bitters could "donate" one of those long-necked sheep to placate the gods
  7. there is no other type of carlton supporters dl5
  8. >50 points over 3 games is a good enough guide. knock it all off tomorrow and we can forget about maths for a while
  9. but we don't have to get to 107.6 everything counts on north losing next week, so if they lose (even by just 1 point) their % drops below 107.6 at this stage of the game best to just track points difference
  10. preferably have a clause making him play in a burqa
  11. >50 points now required over 3 games (avg 17 per game) let's knock it all off tomorrow
  12. hope south melbourne really give it to norf. looking forward to watching scott in the coaches box
  13. rubbish, they can have dawes and steak knives
  14. thanks jack. what a typical bomber thompson incoherent read. as usual, all over the place
  15. roosy just wanting to see who the best 22 will be for the big one at the cat's litter box
  16. just saw dorks horrible strip. that is just sooo bad
  17. outstanding stuff, mcqueen
  18. wasn't referring to you, red and yes as i understand it they have only threatened to sue and a deal is being done to pay compensation to avoid a court case just saying that the guilty getting compensated doesn't sit quite right with me, though i sort of understand why
  19. you're very welcome, uncle btotom line is i think there will be no rain, or very light rain showers of little consequence you being a country squire you should have a better "feel" for weather. what is your (or the lads) prediction?
  20. being wet on sunday looks problematic have checked 4 different weather services and they all differ greatly on rain, but all seem to roughly agree on temp, wind and cloud cover.
  21. seems essendon's assets have been largely unaffected. there was an article in the media in last few days showing the asset value of all clubs. guess who was comfortably on top.
  22. another point is the lack of players playing 1st class cricket overseas when not on australian duty and getting experience on different conditions this is brought about by the increase in australian fixtures with test, od and t20 filling up more of the calendar. playing t20 overseas (e.g. india) doesn't really count as it is not 1st class cricket
