Sideshow Bob

glad im not the only one. very similar nuggety body shape and just a pure manic half back flanker. has been exceptional

Just a thought 2017 second rounder and Dunn to colonwood Colonwood 2nd rounder to ess Pig to us. That works (unless the Pies are desperate to stay in this years 2nd round...)

Need a Gibson and a Hodge for the backline - Hurley would be that guy.... dreams... Could Melksham become a Hodge, I doubt it - But Trengove could! Trengove marshalling the back 6 in Hodge style quarterback role. Yep that'll work. Still need a Hurley though. Might get one might not. The big frame of Hulett -any Casey watchers think he could be a CHB type instead of a raw KPF?

What if the voice call of touched was a player.... as a defender you should assume the voice was anyone's and play it through until a whistle has actually sounded. If our players Sheppard it through instead of punch it through then they are just dumb footballers

At what point does he become 'Sulk' Hogan.......

Yep sign here for a 1 year deal, and here's next year's contract for you to sign as well as our 'Franchise' player for stupid money that will last a lifetime, by which time we will have signed the one after you...... easy to get around that type of rule

He is the chosen one... he will bring balance back to the force Just worked out that taking Collingwood royalty as our own is the key to ending the Norm Smith curse!

No not Carlton people.... They gave away Kennedy for a midfielder....

Would assume that the lack of kicking penetration is due to his lower back. As he gets stronger through his core and bulks up around it over the next couple of years it will improve dramatically.

and here i was thinking we were keeping a lid on the Hogan Hype....... PS i love you Jesse, in a man crush kinda way......nah [censored] it in any kind way...

Might have something to do with the venom he wrote about us during Connolly's time here

....and the new avatar is sorted.Thank you Hulk and Hulk.Big sorry to young Viney - you've served me well for the last 2 years

http://m.canberratimes.com.au/afl/afl-news/tom-faul-hopes-all-christmases-come-at-once-in-afl-draft-20140920-10h4ia.html Just a little story on a local Canberra lad, hope he gets picked up somewhere - he's a great kid with a good head on his shoulders - will be very much an X factor project player. Has been playing with Ainslie in the NEAFL and a few games with GWS Ressies this year. Late draft/rookie prospect

Well of course it's all Jack Watts fault - just goes without saying these days. No point in harping on about it. Roos keeps sticking up for him so even though we all know Jacks to blame for the silly blue sky, it's ok because Roos says it is!

I think the bloke your looking for is Simon Black, you just don't notice them racking up the possies - dishing it out with absolutely no fuss at all. Vossy, Aker, Lappin and Power all benefitted majorly from Blacky doing what he does best. Dom has a similar build and skill set - can't wait to see what he could do with a couple of full preseason's injury free

Strewth - imagine walking in on those 2 doing the wild monkey dance. Scarred for life at just the thought

Haven't stopped by the thread since October. In that time I have had a mo' in Movember and then grew a beard over a 5 week holiday over Chrissy - much been going on here? Just asking cos I really couldn't be arsed reading through 4 months of no T$ no B$

How does Roosy like his banana smoothie? Any special ingredients for him? I'm off to nth Queensland for a week, I'll chat to some banana/sugar/mango growers for some tips to make Paul something very special if he signs on the dotted lne :-)

Home today with my little 4 month old Jako Jnr, as Mrs Jako is in bed as sick as a dog. Gee it'd be good to sit back and rewatch a few of our splendid wins this year.... Hmmmm crap! scratch that, need a new plan Looks like I've got 2 good looking banana's in the fruit bowl - I reckon one to eat and the other not sure - could turn it into a smoothie, it's not at over ripe make banana bread stage. Maybe pancakes with banana and cream for lunch? Need some help here banana smoothie or pancakes with banana topping?

Think back to 2000, round 22 ( or whatever round was the last of the H&A season), WCE vs Melbourne - Bluey McKennna's last game - they were crap and we were on the rampage. I was in Perth doing a grad dip at UWA, living in the nurses quarters at Carlie Gardiner hospital - walking distance to Subiaco, but i digress - must have been one of maybe 3 Demons in the crowd. The game was well and truly cooked by early in the 3rd and was looking like it could get ugly for the home side. The game got interesting only because the coach did something that doesn't happen anymore, play up for the crowd - Bluey McKenna was sent to full forward and cleared out the 50 for the last quarter. Get bluey a goal in his last game. Unfortunately for the crowd, Guy McKenna was one of the alltime great half back flankers, and as such not a full forwards jockstrap! Had a couple of shots but just plain stank in front of goal. Chaired off afterwards to a standing ovation. That half back line on Woosha,G Jako and Bluey must be one of if not the strongest line on a football ground ever - still jealous of it. Just checked for you RL, listed as 184 cm - maybe you were on a step! but yes he'd look short next to the current players!!

Have just rediscovered the Pine Lime Sunnyboy, very nice way to cut through the sweltering summer heat here in Canberra. Highly underrated the old Sunnyboy ice block. Would gladly forgo a banana or 2 for one in this Canberra heat wave

Has anyone checked the GWS forums... It could gone up for a look around Edit: dam it beaten by a nanosecond

Did anyone catch the doco on Cadels win on SBS prior to the prologue? Really was good viewing - especially the interviews with Andy Schleck - he said that he knew the race was Cadels prior to the time trial and that finishing second to Cadel was a great honour, he went up to Cadel privately in the airport on route to the final stage and gave him a big congrats. First tie I've really noticed that Andy might actually be a good bloke, always had him pegged for an arrogant SOB - disappointed he's not racing this year now, would have made things more interesting. Footage after stage 1 shows Wiggins already under serious stress - he looks about as in control as Cadel 3 years ago - serious mental case! Certainly didn't look good for three weeks of intense racing

Go PATS Just something about blue with a bit of red that I like

Yep.... Apparently both Melbourne teams suck. A good boxing day is all that is required to regain my faith in test cricket - plus a few hours listening to the 12th man! Then again once boxing day test is over, we will have all January to watch big bash games
