Really annoys me to see Marsh playing ahead of Khawaja. Bloke gets 3 chances playing under Mickey Arthur, has excellent technique but clearly had no guidance and leadership when over in England. Our biggest mistake of years gone by is not blooding young future players when the team was going well, it's hard to grow when your team is getting hammered which we found out, now we have a chance to put in two guys who can play 8 years for the country and we're wasting it. I love Lehmann but I hope he doesn't get obsessed with number 1 ranking within a few weeks. With our countries talent we should never have to 'rebuild', it takes big decisions from above and I hope he has the nuts.

Both of these defences I'd rate as the two best in the game. Two big plays are the only real offence in this at all. Last quarter comes down to Wilson for the Hawks. We'll get a chance to win the game, it's just whether he's good enough. Today he's turned back into trouble far too many times instead of taking the first option. I'm hoping this changes. Go Hawks

This was just promoted on the 'best threads ever' post and it prompted me to read it again. In a nothing serious kind of way, I've just had a shocking few weeks and sometimes you wonder why me? What have I done to deserve this. Twosheds, I hope you're looking down looking over us and the Dees because re-reading this just made me realise how ungrateful we are sometimes. Every Sunday I'm normally in the worst mood because the Demons have let me down again. It's beyond comprehension how unfair it is that you were taken far too young, but as a 23 year old myself, your words have meaning beyond belief. Hope your family or friends post on here still, I'd love to know they know how proud we are as a community of your strength. Enough from me mate, but thanks for turning around my month.

Pats look done. No defence will kill them, even if they put up three touchdowns now it won't be enough. On another note, very nervous for my Seahawks today. Last year I went to a game at Century Link field where the Hawks beat the Cardinals 58-3 on a game that meant nothing and every single Arizona play on offense I couldn't feel or hear myself even think. Really hoping we give 49ers a bath ttonight

Patriots Giants Bears

Saints Panthers Broncos

It's give to Gore, hope WR1 is open on a bootleg, leg it or get sacked every play. You're dead right, excellent athletically but his play recognition is terrible. That said, he's missing Manningham and Crabtree, his best 2 recievers. That'd make Peyton look average. Seattle Detroit Cincinatti

KC Seahawks & Broncos

Bloody soft. Alot softer than you sitting behind your computer. This soft kid was so weak that he was seniors football at the age of 16. What a bloody [censored] putting his teenage body up against men!! Now at 18 backing into a pack against the biggest bodies in the comp, knowing us with no voice from his teammates he lowered his head slightly.. Well holy [censored]. Josh hunt weighs 100 kilos and is built like a brick out house and he did a deplorable head drop last year. A three time premiership player. I love posters who came out with lines like this because it allows me from now on to ignore every post you make. Thank you. Hope your courage behind your desk is in top form also..

If he doesn't who does Clint. We've bought in players who have had AFL careers and played in premierships and Grand Finals, in Byrnes and Rodan, and we are so defunct, these veterans are completely unable to help. How supporters expect 18 year olds to come in and even dominate in such a terrible team with no old leadership is beyond me. Stop comparing him to Joel Selwoods first year, and look at his assets and just think about how they'll help us in the future. I can't cope with the negativity so for the love of mercy, stop spreading the word to the idiots who actually have no football brain (you're not in that category) but they read this and start threads saying should we have picked Wines.... Jimmy will be a jet. He'll break lines not like we've seen this millennium in the red and blue. Just give him time.

His sister is a stone cold fox if that makes the decision any easier.

What a down right stupid comment! Why compare living permanently away from friends and family to 4 days away. Don't rush to re-post.

Bears to win today is my pick. Green Bay's defence is absolutely appalling, their secondary would be upgrded if I jogged out there. Washington to back it up again this week I hope too, RGIII is god.

I wish I could get together with you and watch highlights. Morton and Watts are both constant sinners of standing over a pack and hoping it pops out. 3 times he could, with heart gone harder and won the footy. He embarrasses us and other supporters have caught on. If you don't want bruise free footy, put Cale at Casey.

Grimes, Clark, McKenzie, McDonald even Frawley and definitely Howe were better.

HAHAHAHA! Too many beers Chook!

Banana's are remaining steady. #winning.

With topics like drug regulation people need to be very careful what they say. It is one thing to disagree with another's opinion however with topics like this where people feel strongly towards suggesting one way or the other is THE right way is not satisfactory. To put it short a topic like drug regulation doesn't belong on a footy board. Let's get back to the real stuff.

Think it's fantastic used in moderation. Couldn't think of anything more professional than seeing all the boys arrive to the game wearing their blazers; getting off the buses for interstate trips etc. Tracksuits look so unprofessional when I played footy at school it was an honour to arrive to the game wearing our blazer before kitting up. This could be really good relying how they approach it.

Paine's finger by all reports is far worse than expected. One person I've spoken to has even suggested his career in general is in strife purely through the finger not making any proper progress recovering. He's not a doctor though so it is only what he's been told. I think Wade will make a more than adequate replacement. Heaps better keeper than Haddin and his style is far more suited to modern day test cricket than Brads. It wouldn't shock me if he didn't play in the West Indies.

It pains me to say this because there is nothing I love more than Melbourne FC but it is by far the best run game in the world and in turn makes it one of the most exciting seasons. The powerbrokers in this game have set it up that the game changes every week, every year; teams fluctuate, good rules changes etc etc just makes it amazing to watch. Btw I'm so anti-Tebow but wow today I couldn't take my eyes off the TV!

Please tell me. Huge NFL fantasy player!
