  1. In recent times Brisbane lost good players to the Queensland Giants, and we snagged a Great player from them in Mitch Clark.
  2. Someone call security.
  3. The GWS shouldn't have f'allowed it.
  4. You guys neglect to mention that Tom sculls doubled his possession count from the Sydney derby. Then again, with Tom at ouch is usually just that. The lad has been poorly advised and is now playing under the weight of expectations. Looks like another stuff up, Kev.
  5. Poor Shannon. Melbourne ELITE Jack Grimes defender BELOW AVERAGE Rohan Bail midfielder Jake Spencer ruck James Sellar defender Tom Gillies defender Sam Blease forward Neville Jetta midfielder Luke Tapscott defender James Strauss defender POOR Shannon Byrnes forward http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/tiger-sixpack-rates-a-mention-20130306-2flk2.html#ixzz2MnOiGnKw
  6. Memorably Stuck with the Dees and didn't go to Freo around this time.
  7. To fix up our midfield we should consider cryogenically unfreeze Stephen Powell.
  8. Have seen a number of Melbourne and Casey games in last three/four seasons, it is a ripping experience. Can go on the ground and listen to the coaches and watching the game close up makes you appreciate the skills of the modern day player.
  9. He is a "Melbourne regular", after all:Sellar bags five as Demons open pre-season account
  10. Cable on, Barassi off!!!
  11. Research about the effect of heading the ball in soccer: http://www.theaustralian.com.au/sport/football/brain-damage-in-soccer-players-linked-to-heading-the-ball/story-fn63e0vj-1226587957004
  12. Yes Caroline, but is any of this 'disgusting'? Thompson, Robson the likely fall guys
  13. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/geelong-says-joel-selwood-wont-change-the-way-he-plays-despite-warnings-of-head-trauma/story-fnecrvvd-1226586139838 Our football culture feeds off the bloodlust of the profit takers. Crowds want blood, corporates who now own the game expect win-at-all-costs and young footballers do their bidding with crazy braveness. Joel Selwood's playmaking is becoming an art-form in itself (which others are mimicking) not unlike our lost diggers. It seems sincce the biff has been taken out of the game the head first into packs not to mention professional elbow to the scone have taken its place. Plenty of lawyers waiting on the interchange bench.
  14. An AFL player just said on the news (ABC) that he didn't want the league changing the rules so that it became unrecognisable. A few hits on the head playing this code will achieve that already.
  15. According to afl website we are taking a young team to Renmark.
  16. Another sad statistic of this blight on our code: http://www.heraldsun.com.au/afl/more-news/greg-williams-reveals-memories-of-sporting-highlights-and-personal-life-are-fading/story-e6frf9jf-1226584178926
  17. There is an article in the Age about culture, by Jeff Kennett. Something about don't bring your pets into China shops.
  18. Some heart when we cross the border. Beat a second Victorian team.
  19. If Daw and Dawes are both playing Friday night, how many Dawes will be playing? Answer = 1
  20. poster internet an just are you, 2009 in 'wrote' you what cares who = delusions of self importance. (you can say some things standing on your head and still people won't listen. )
  21. He loses, he wins. Everyone will tune in to see them go head to head.
  22. Ulysses Everett McGill: I am the only daddy you got! I'm the damn paterfamilias! Wharvey Gal: But you ain't bona fide! Oh Brother, Where Art Thou. What drives Ben Hur? A Roman chariot? 'The tanking scandal'? Kate Upton's next photo-shoot? A Nero complex? An upcoming Moot Court presentation? Every time I come on here he is front and square, racking up the stats. It is a wonderment. PS does anyone know what Kate looks like without mascara. That would be interesting, and surely worthy of its own thread. There was an article (and pix) in The Age the other day about female celebs without make-up. I didn't believe it. At the end of the day, we are all semi-mature posters, not unlike Gazza (and Caro) seeking our own credibility, if not contested footy, (yes, contested, Ben). The off-season has reminded us once again of its inadequacies, hence the over-pregnant postings of late. Feel-good training reports are but a placebo for the real-thing. If Melbourne sticks it to Port Adelaide Round One watch this voluminous correspondence slip down the charts. It just isn't the real thing, it isn't bona fide. Neither is the kite flying about fines, neither are C. Wilson's updates or her street-talk about our club's ethical standing, and neither is much of the anti red and blue commentary regarding the 2009 playing field we found ourselves on.
  23. Like it where kerosene caro seems to be praising Gillon for the outcome, suggesting he may now be in line for the top job. This after condemning the final outcome.
  24. Agree totally, but you are dealing with afl rules, not Aussie rules. The latter system is underpinned by assumption of natural justice. Ie justice delayed is justice denied, don't harass witnesses and treat all as equal before the law.
  25. The strategy of kite flying with the fine is just a strategy to test the reaction of the various parties.
