  1. I think it's drawing a pretty long bow to argue anything they did was unethical. Completely different to tanking or drug use.
  2. Newscorp linked with Channel 7 - they may be [censored] off at the shemozzle that is Friday night footy this year.
  3. What a load of rubbish. Point out exactly what the Swans did wrong in signing Franklin as a FA?
  4. Too right, they've been around for close to 150 years already
  5. I think there is a different situation with Collingwood though as they have the whole Ponsford Stand reserved for all home AND away matches. Therefore while an away member to Queens Bday may cost the club a GA ticket towards the gate receipts they are able to sell it as a "reserved/social club" seat. Therefore they are charging more than they have to dish out an hence making money off that ticket. Not to mention all the people who buy a reserved membership ticket and don't turn up, that money is pocketed. Any other club who sells away game memberships only get access to the GA areas of the ground and therefore there is no new benefit to selling those tickets (other than for people who purchase the membership and then don't attend all games).
  6. Interesting thread on BF for those who want to have a read http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/a-more-accurate-comparison-of-victorian-crowds.1105052/
  7. Dawes is ex-Pie too? I'm not saying it's completely racist but I think there could be an underlying element to it.
  8. Great call! The camera work of the broadcasters needs some serious work.
  9. Grimes was caught 3 or 4 times with the footy and kicked one on the full as well. He did alright getting the ball but is still far too slow getting rid of it.
  10. Because he has taken strong stances on political issues that make others feel uncomfortable?
  11. So why did he get booed by the Richmond supporters earlier in the year?
  12. He took 6 marks. He missed a shot at goal but was playing the link up player across high half forward with Hogan and Garlett deeper. He did his job today, he wasn't BOG but he did his job.
  13. Collingwood aren't top 8 - we've beaten Tiges, Dogs and Cats that's 3.
  14. With all due respect Nasher, they've played in 4 (and won one) since we last fronted up.
  15. No must be for home games only which doesn't really make sense.
  16. Dawes was good today, what do some of you guys expect from him?
  17. Gus is such a competitive beast, I seriously don't know if I love him or Hogan more! If Petracca is just as good they are a formidable trio to build a club around for the next 10-15 years.
  18. It's completely above the shoulders.
  19. Grimes was terrible but can't agree on Michie - he won several clearances early and was contributing. Was surprised he got the vest instead of Grimes or Neal-Bullen.
  20. Someone's gotta get this up somewhere.
  21. Dunno probably Elliot and Fasolo/Sidebottom.
  22. Haha that is brilliant just sent to my family.
  23. Thanks mate - I've been a bit out of the loop so wasn't sure what's been going on. Have been pretty busy and not really inclined to seek out info on the Dees the last few weeks for obvious reasons so thanks for the heads up.
  24. Hopefully going in too tall doesn't hurt us. I'd probably drop Dawes for Matt Jones to give us a bit of extra run. Dawes won't be marking much today. Today feels like the Essendon game as far as outside is concerned, hopefully the game is of a higher standard. This is likely to be the last game I go to for the year so hopefully it's a good one.
