  1. When big business see $$$$$$, morals go out th highest window... and those important things Lose. Morals, Environment, Social Health. How may times has 3rd world countries had they're environments screwed up for the $$$$... prosperity of shareholders, in other countries.... like Papua NG... like Sth-American countries and now the Amazon itself... Lets not mention the Arctic and Ant-Arctic. And its fully evident in VFL-AFL... see Fitzroy Lions, Sth-Melbourne Swans, et al... Fixtures and Prime time TV. capitalism is devastating
  2. Kick it off, At 'AFL' HQ.
  3. The Real change in culture will begin when we get a home base. and something tangible to play are hearts out for. Not some flag... but for feeling people. People who feel really sad when things aren't great... and people who celebrate Strong, when the teams on-song... Not a Fabric Flag .
  4. Maybe (national draft)... but is any aggression allowed in Neo conservatism.? silly me. of course it is... just look at the fine print and we will find it in there somewhere. U Just need a magnifying Glass, to look for it. It'll be in there somewhere. depending on if its inline with the law of making money for the rich. .
  5. Go Toby... Go-Dees
  6. Listening on Casey radio... for anyone who doesn't realise its on the air. https://www.3ser.org.au/
  7. cough.... would that be the In-Laws, 'DSP'. ?
  8. Frosty seems to get better each game, thru continuity. I reckon Frost is ahead of OMc for most games now, and once May comes in, I anticipate OMc goes out. OMc might replace Frost for teams with bigger key talls.?
  9. And they want to be referred to as Professionals.? To me this is the problem of a lacking of true depth. Real depth would fix this lack of skills training.
  10. NFL.?
  11. The Iron is hot 'MR'... and the battle for hearts and Tassie minds, is hotting up, in Canberra... I reckon the laundry will be delivered for pressing, sooner, rather than later. All things to be considered by a smart coach, for his future.
  12. The world has begun to "spin' backwards. in more than one sense. The West is battling, with the generation of the East... thanks to greedy Director's in Multinational's boardrooms. Inflation is dying, unable to sustain any real interest rates... and people are getting really self-centred, and holding what they've got... and not caring about young people who are stuck in the rental trap. Wages are failing to raise to any sort of sustainable living standard... and full-time work a thing of the past, because we sold our Manufacturing sector out... and let the East take it from us. In short we are the downward slide, with wages marching in the direction of a world Parity, on Wealth. Then, Manufacturing will come back to Local markets, trading locally. cutting out the middle men and they importers will shrink... apart from the Spice Trade. Oh wait, we can grow most of these as well. So who has, and who will have, wealth enough, to pay for Luxury's like Pay TV... and other little nik-naks.?
  13. Would he be happy living in Tassie, 'rj'.?
  14. The AFL missed that boat,, GCSuns.... Nth going North. Those Blue and White stripes would have looked fantastic up there... in the Queensland's Sunshine. IMO the warmer coloured Jumper, would have appeared better down Sth, in Tassy. .
  15. The season is but young, 'DD'. Port imv, are still a front running side. Let them off the leash, and they can play. A but like us between mid 90's, and 2013... Keep a tight reign on a front runner, and they will choke on the pressure. We've done that on many an occasion, in our past. .
  16. I been outside, working on the boat trailer... so Hearing the Scott news shortly before working outside, I hadn't considered the ramifications of the Coaches Merry-go-Rround. But i reckon discussions would have been held with Scott's manager, by other clubs, well before this week. Probably since the end of the 2018 season I reckon the Blues would have been into him for sure. They need an experienced coach... and i reckon there would have been a 'price', for them to consider. I reckon they've considered, and accepted. The Saints are in a less desperate, situation... and probably could be more creative with their ideas. .
  17. I think we've got a longer term view with him... what length contract did we give him.? So I think we have put the job in-front of him, to work hard, to really earn his place. I see him having to build his tank. So he can improve on his 2018/19 preseason. And I think he has already improved his fitness over where he was last year... judging by his body shape. He has changed a lot, starting from his work in the USA. I reckon he'll improve next year, with another preseason, and then again, the year after that. I think we're looking to be at our top, in 2021 .
  18. Exactly, 'OD'... exactly. We are a team shallow on form, and players, playing a side in they're peak age group wise, and decent form, to boot. The Giants are level on points, with 5 other clubs... and only one game ahead of the Hawks, who hold 8th spot at this stage... they are only a whisker away from dropping out of the Top 8. I think we will have to play out of our socks... 'OD.!
  19. I think Hore can play small. Jetta out, for a while yet. I think the choice is between Frost and OMc ? FB/ Hore, May, Lever HB/ Wagner, Frost, Hibbo CL/ Salem, Oli, Stretch
  20. Ohh... they'll be playing to win, 'OD'. But that doesn't mean they will be. Winning a lot. This is a gap year. 2019.
  21. https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/afl-midseason-draft-2019-how-the-draft-works-date-draft-order-players-in-the-mix/news-story/ec5b7c7fde292e73a451bc6b13d7b8f0
  22. We don't know how reasonable actually, because how doers a coach do his best within a club like the Roos... underfunded, in comparison to to ther clubs. And they have tried to buy players without success. I suspect Scott told the Roos he would not continue next year at the club, because they have continued to fail in the recruiting stakes.
  23. Well lets hope we don't become another 9thMond. in that scenario... then this year would have become a TOTAL waster. At the very least I hope we can snare some very good running talents.
  24. At least Keilty has saved his spot on our List, IMO... shown hes got something.
