  1. You have not, you just named it is all.

    So they're list managing again,,, and they want a priority pick on top of that as well. In one of the strongest drafts that's been. Not on your nelly, blues.
  3. ah, so this was you et ?
  4. We owe the AFL currently, and we are re-payed home games for members ? So I'm OK with it, as long as they work the fixture to help Re our loss of condition, from Darwin.
  5. Especially at that stage of the season, just a hop step and jump into September. We need the best conditioning we can, leading into the finals.
  6. what you read the media for your info?
  7. Is this your mancave pf ? Do you have central heating? I'd like to hire t'it from you for a B&S ball.
  8. a number of reasons imc. One to return Garlett this week, and to give the lad a week off, then back next week, (to freshen him up ahead of the QB game)... both Spargo and Garlett in the side against the Bulldogs. Then we can see how the lineup looks, ahead of the Q/Birthday game... Re selection for that Matchup. After that, we enter the bye, and then the All important run home.
  9. an image, of his former self. ?
  10. It is now for us,,, as we try to make finals on a regular basis. When we were in list building phase, it wasn't a concern.
  11. They should not have played there at that time of year. at all. Stupid fixturing by the AFL. Its mostly to do with the excessive sweating. Even the Lions under Matthews in the early 2000's were having fluids at half time, Via intravenous drip. And that was in lowly Brisbane town. Not so far North.
  12. Yes we did thoroughly intimidated. It was a disgrace, they way we went to water under provocation. the hawks sides would have sttod tall and like a kangaroo would not have taken a backward step. We folded up the card table and left the venue. Really the only one I recall to show some fight during the intimidation's, was Schwarta. And in the game we barely fired a shot in anger. Here are some stats for that game, set for tackles... but check the other team stats. We were getting pants'd, and we were also shown how to, in tackles, as well. https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/fts_match_statistics?mid=1284&sby=6#t2 Some here think we were good, we weren't. we were not a team to truly play for one another. We were a team of talents who played as individuals mostly. And Most were soft in the physical stakes. Going through the list from this game, I would feel safe with only 9 players, to really have my back in any meaningful way. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We lost what toughness we scrapped together in the 80's, sometime thru the mid 90's. Became Hollywood pretenders, with heaps of wasted talent. This continued right thru until Roosy started to bring back some pride in our contested football style. We are on the way back to playing like Men, again,,,, but still aways to go. We are apprentices, atmo. imo.

    I hope, Luke Beveridge's men. Didn't you hear, he turned Dunn into a defender as well.
  14. what is it swyl?

    We need to guard against Corporate Hitchhikers, and Train Jumper hobo's.
  16. Its mine... I've been banging on about having a bye immediately after our game in Darwin; since we started playing them up there, The other idea, connected to this, was to play the TWO NT games, back to back. Alice then Darwin. Back to back or not, we need have the bye, following Darwin... And it should be played in late July early August (coldest time of year), and should ideally be scheduled to coincide with school holidays. The week between games would make a great Winter holiday escapade for Demon tourists, to see the Northern Country, or to Sth East Asia.
  17. Have you done any reading on the injury? I didn't post, to let you know the obvious swyl.
  18. Oh, now that would be telling !
  19. exactly, and it was how we played the game back then. it was the norm, give or take. Captain blood made his name doing such things, as a clean up exercise. you hit ours, we hit yours. You should ask about the O'Keefe's, down the beach way. not averse to a scuffle or two. The Wallace thing was Rodney's crudest. It would be the making of him, with us. It would be 'the final straw', of his interstate divorce. bring it on. not always.
  20. .... didn't matter which way you faced, that was irrelevant.
  21. Wallet's helping us. Nothing would make us click together more, than the Crows targeting One of ours. 'terry' wants this. Go ahead crow babies,,,, Make my Day. exactly. Nothing..... Nothing,,,, galvanizes the D's more, than one of ours being attacked. 2005 we may have struggled, but this group Will definately not. .
  22. your a chiro you know its not. tell them to go Run, then Jump.
  23. Yes it is. We have a tough run home into September. RSI can develop, if it isn't already. We don't need TMc for one game, for bragging rites. Following this weekend,,, we play bullies, who are off a little, and them the Pies, followed by a bye. Unless they are thinking of playing him this week, and then resting til after the bye? We need Tom fit thru August, and on. .
  24. did you read about it?
