  1. And Mitch Clisby.
  2. Easy. They just provisionally un-suspend Essendon players for 24 hours, then provisionally suspend them again. Why not ... everything else about Essendon and drugs is a joke.
  3. It is an action shot. It's an action I've been making at most Melbourne games since 2007.
  4. I'd like to see some action instead of just player's head shots.
  5. Obviously winning in a landslide no longer guarantees you more than one term. Tony's opinion polls are looking terrible. If the LNP sticks to this mantra that they're 'making the hard decisions', and it's just the 'message' that they're not getting across, they're gone. In the minds of voters, it's their unfair, ideological, hit-the-poor policies that suck. Listen more to Grong Grong and get out of the offices of the BCA and IPA.
  6. I think he's still well ahead of Billy McMahon but the gap's closing.
  7. EPL champions since 1992: 1992–93 Manchester United 1993–94 Manchester United 1994–95 Blackburn Rovers 1995–96 Manchester United 1996–97 Manchester United 1997–98 Arsenal 1998–99 Manchester United 1999–2000 Manchester United 2000–01 Manchester United 2001–02 Arsenal 2002–03 Manchester United 2003–04 Arsenal 2004–05 Chelsea 2005–06 Chelsea 2006–07 Manchester United 2007–08 Manchester United 2008–09 Manchester United 2009–10 Chelsea 2010–11 Manchester United 2011–12 Manchester City 2012–13 Manchester United 2013–14 Manchester City If that was the AFL, how hopeless would the lower teams feel (not that they don't feel hopeless anyway)? It would be like 22 years sharing the premiership between Hawthorn, Geelong, Sydney and Collingwood.
  8. What happened to make St Kilda lose opportunity at the Junction Oval? Thought they were keen.
  9. Of course. As a footballer you should train 24/7 so if supporters ever spot you having some fun you won't be deemed to be 'unprofessional'.
  10. Panic merchants.
  11. 'Obtuse' is only six letters.
  12. It's not unfathomable. It's because he's gone and changed colours.
  13. So when someone makes a very difficult decision and gives up what could have been a promising career for an alternative, back home in the Australian desert, they are taking the 'easy ride to success'? Not by my assessment.
  14. Doesn't sound like it.
  15. I like Petracca, Brayshaw and Wright in that order. For me: If the Saints take Petracca, then it's Brayshaw and Wright. If the Saints take Brayshaw, then it's Petracca and Wright If the Saints take Wright, then it's Petracca and Brayshaw If the Saints take someone else (like McCartin), it's Petracca and Brayshaw.
  16. Rating the draft 3/10 or whatever is pointless given the lack of understanding about what options were presented to Melbourne. I'd suggest they did the best they could with the hand they were dealt. The effect of the draft on any team is grossly over-rated anyway. So few players actually change hands it's hardly life-changing for the clubs. We may well get two stars out of picks 2 and 3, and find out in a few year's time it was much better to keep them than to trade them for someoine. Who knows?
  17. I put this entry yesterday morning in 'The Brownlow' thread. Maybe everybody just assumed I was talking about Buddy.
  18. Waiting for the supertrade involving five clubs, five players and fifteen picks.
  19. I see that million dollar man living in Sydney polled well.
  20. Thymosin (Alpha 1) is supposed to aid the treatment of cancer, hepatitis and AIDS. Thymosin Beta-4 is supposed to assist in tissue recovery from injury. They also have different recommended dosage rates. The dosage rates Dank specified match those for Thymosin Beta-4, not Thymosin. Not too hard to draw an inference.
  21. Essendon are stuffed. They surely wouldn't waste money on an appeal, but they might be pig-headed enough to do so. Hopefully now we can get down to what they all took, which is the real issue.
  22. What a wonderful microcosm of Demonland this thread is. Never fail to make judgements and character assassinations based on half truths and innuendo. Put all your trust for truth in Twitter, Facebook, Demonland and BigFooty. Jump to conclusions based on the feeling of the day and the direction the pendulum is swinging. Ascribe motives without real evidence. By the way, I thought the Essendon drugs scandal was at its peak in 2012. At least that's the period ASADA concentrated on. Goodwin joined their coaching staff in 2013.
  23. Yes, we could go from a waltz to a comic opera.
  24. So HL, who actually acts on some of the 'work to do', therefore becomes a 'high and mighty', 'blows it way out of proportion' and only acts from 'self-promotion'? Is there 'work to do' or not? If the sort of crap we see weekly on The Footy Show is any indication of the blokey culture in a footy club, then I'm with Heritier.
