Eth

Chook pretty much summed it up. It feels like a lump of meat when I kick, and I only ever kick the footy with my mates, so it's not that important to me anyway.

Shame my dad's Collingwood.

I can back this up. When it comes to kicking with my right, I'm probably better off holding the ball over my head and screaming

The question is, if Darling and Smedts were both available at pick 12, who would we take? (Assuming Lynch is unavailable, as he most likely will be)

So does Mark Jamar not deserve to be AA? He had a ripper season yet stil tired towards the end. And to your first comment, remember that free kick against the Dogs in 2005?

Here's all you need on Luke Molan: http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/a-super-unlucky-pick-from-the-superdraft-20091124-j5uy.html Also, Nick Gill played with Melbourne in 2001, North in 2003 and Adelaide from 2007-09, playing 16 games and kicking 20 goals, all for the latter team. He currently plays with North Adelaide in the SANFL.

Five rookie spots, correct me if I'm wrong. Not sure what will happen to Johnson. Can't remember if the news that Meesen and Newton were to be rookied was made instantly after they were delisted. Yep, it's official. Spencer would be the ruck relief. If injured, Dunn, Sylvia or Newton as all three can ruck. Gawn and Fitzpatrick will develop at Casey.

Also, an in depth analysis of the fixtures had us with the best draw. Not fan friendly, but it bumps our finals hopes up.

There's one thing I don't like about the fixture, and it's not the home game at Etihad. One game against Collingwood? You'd think two encounters where the total margin was one point would be enough...

Which it was...some people are yet to realise that though

Junior and Junior Junior (the two JMacs excluding Joel) both came off the rookie list in recent memory

Are you accusing Petterd of being a spud? I hope not

Ricky Petterd Colin Sylvia Liam Jurrah Brad Green Jack Trengove Sorry Chip, would've had you sixth

Thanks for watching. It was funny walking into the MCG late with a mate who goes for Sydney and seeing us up by a goal 20 seconds in

Pricks.

I would think they'd show Dees v Hawks v Dons on Saturday - that way, Saturday footy is three Victorian teams rather than three interstate teams, one of which doesn't even play AFL.

Apparently, this is the Round 1 fixture for the NAB Cup: Friday Feb 11 Adelaide v Port Adelaide v St.Kilda - AAMI Stadium (N) (SEVEN) Saturday Feb 12 Sydney v Gold Coast v GWS - Blacktown Olympic Park (N) (TEN) Sunday Feb 13 Hawthorn v Melbourne v Essendon - Etihad Stadium (T) (FOX) Friday Feb 18 West Coast v Fremantle v Collingwood - Patterson's Stadium (N) (SEVEN) Saturday Feb 19 Carlton v Brisbane v Richmond - Etihad Stadium (N) (TEN) Sunday Feb 20 Geelong v North Melbourne v Western Bulldogs - Skilled Stadium (T) (FOX)

Oh well, 70%'s still a big saving

Liking the photo of Dean De Niro.

http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=156260364412428 From 10 to 3 this Saturday at Etihad Stadium, Gate 2. I could definitely do with a few posters, a flag, a T-shirt...especially since it's so cheap. Would there be an extra 10% off with our memberships though?

It's not just you. Hopefully that was only to make the dragon on the side look better. Can't have the red, blue and silver all too close together, I don't think it would look right

I also posted this on Bigfooty, but we've played the Hawks a few times in Round 1, haven't we? I remember in 2003-ish we beat them by a goal - didn't Junior attempt a specky and concuss himself or something like that? (I defintely remember a player doing that, not 100% sure if it was him) I just checked, we played them in Round 1 in 2002-04, 2008 and 2010.

He will be elite next year, no doubt.

Liam Jurrah CAN touch MC Hammer

We need a thread filled with these. 'The only time Liam Jurrah made a mistake was when he thought he made a mistake'
