A few wins under Beckwith, then Ridley. Was it opening five straight? How come Roden never got a game. Waited through the Skilton/Ditterich years. But for an errant Robert Walls kick could've had JOY. Yeah forgot Denis Jones, Wayne Reid, Sir Billy. Moore and Templeton and return of the prodigal son. Robbie to half back said it all. Five minutes of sunshine in one fell SWOOP. Enter Dipper and Dermie. Rebuild and rebuild. Balmey anD the Rev. And Scwarters knee, Jacko's back, Stings and Charles. Spoons, Diamond Joe and Long's knee. Jimmy, Bailey and Neeld. Spare me the dynasty please.

Switched from iPhone to a Huawei. 5.5 inch screen, 32 hours over a day and a half (ok 8 hours sleep) and $299 from Harvey Norman. Looks like a 6s Plus. Everyone thinks I've got an apple. Thousand bucks cheaper, got the big screen, excellent battery life and i'm learning Android. Back in Australia, Nice people at Genius Bar replaced my 3 year old iPhone 5 After I bought the Huawei. Makes the iPhone a nice spare traveler. Incidentally - punished the new iPhone 5 today. 100 % to zero. Three and a half hours. Not expecting a free replacement from Huawei in three years if I've got issues.

Vic Park R1 early 80s - last quarter in front. Daicos

Girlfriend tells me she kinda likes the attention. More so if I'm with her

Dusty thread closed. Begs the question; What would Chris Gayle have got threatening to kill the girl/stab her eyes with chopsticks.

Haven't read the article - from Vietnam. I saw the "Templeton game" at Kardinia Park AND the mid 70s win at Moorabbin. Still visualise Graham's monster. Also so our last ever game at Victoria Park. Only kicked two goals in last quarter. Sean Wight and Andy Lovell - 29 and 31 minute mark. Got up by three points.

I am an Apple fan - iPhone 3 for 3 years and i5 past three. I don't stream , don't face book, rarely watch you tube and never play games. I hammer Viber, Wattsapp, Wechat though. I can reach zero from full charge in 3 1/2 hours. Genius Bar tell me that's "within specification". They've updated iOS, factory reset it, replaced the battery and replaced the phone. No good. I recently read an article online - 34 ways to improve iPhone Battery life. I implemented all 34, turning off things I did not even know existed like saying "Hey SIRI". 34 modifications, new LOW POWER MODE SETTING - and no difference. Maybe four hours. My nephew and mate both report high battery usage on iPhone 6. The Guardian review says "Great phone but rubbish battery." Thanks for your comments but I really worry the 6 will let me down. From reviews the 6 Plus seems better than the 6. Do you guys have the 6, 6S or Plus? I have a MacBook, not keen on learning an android but the quoted 2 day battery life on the is tempting. Thanks

Persevered with an iPhone 5 for 3 years - and I'm an Apple fan. But flat battery by lunchtime forces me to look at the other side. I travel and extended battery life is everything to me. Anyone here road tested a Xperia with the long life battery claims? Thanks

Already have couple of Premiership players - hardly set our forward line/ defence alight. Might make us a better team now; better to pump 40 games into a developing mid who will come of age - hopefully - when we need it.

What if Carlton or Brisbane select their own "Jordan Gysberts". Are there 2 lock- ins better than Parish?

Can they arrest a run on? I understand a rampant Dogs outfit barking at September - but Carlton? 72 - 9? Carlton.

I wanted WCE in Perth Or Hawks

Want three words only next to our selection; "Think Jonathan Brown"

Is it possible we pull off an 11th hour deal for Aish?

Yeah - asked for mods delete this one

Dunn Frost Jetta Garland T Mac Vandenberg Brayshaw N Jones Salem Watts Pedeson Tyson Kent Hogan Garlett Gawn Vince Viney Stretch O Mac Harmes Newton From Vietnam and it shows. No Petracca or ex Magpies. Where do the newly traded recruits fit in?

TOuMpAS - misread it.

That is interesting. Need a data analysis more skilled than me to interpret. I suspect North 2nd to Swans 18th over a decade comprising 22 games a season represents a normal distribution curve. As you said in opening post - WC are off the chart.

Interesting to see stats for other interstate clubs. Hawthorn and North in Tassie. I reckon Sydney get an AFL sanctioned dream run in overall terms. 96 GF - Dunkley O3 ~ Barry Hall in Prelim Academy COLA Jettas running goal against Pies in Prelim. Sydney must have ongoing success for marketing and TV rights. Anyway, like whinging cos you're not born into the Packer family. Get our own FD in order first.

I tend to agree they get the rub of the green. Walker was dragged off it in the 10 yard square a few years ago that should have cost WCE a Prelim. As it was Carlton who were the victims, didn't care much at the time. Same with North in recent Prelim there - decisive decisions went West. Your stats warrant further scrutiny. If there is a 1600 differential over 10 seasons that is 160 annually. Most of the past decade they have been "better" than us; three GF and a flag v well.... 0ver a season 160 FF translates to 7 a game. So if 50 frees were awarded in a game - maybe they would get 28, we receive 21. Generally better teams get more frees cos they are more skilled. Poorer sides less so, infringe more. Frees aren't meant to be 50/50 in a match. Agree, the critical ones appear to go their way. Your Freo stats are interesting.

Never got a decent trade from Scum since Ray Smith. Only comfort I draw from Milkshake is the way Roos re- ignited Teddy Richards' career.

As much as I'd like Swan Josh Kennedy leading our midfield - how about re-uniting our own skipper's brother; Zak at Sydney. He played in the finals, add some in and under.

Maybe our turn sometime to land a Pav or Fyffe in the draft

So true re Freo - Fyffe and Pavlich ok but their last six bottom out with Zac Dawson.
