  1. I think they are all guessing. At lunch time there was no official news on what the scans revelled.
  2. I see Grundy could out for 8-10 weeks for the pies. If so he will be paid approx $100k a game.
  3. I think you will struggle to get 30K to both. 27 this weekend and 23 on mothers day is my call. Once it was only 2 games a weekend televised now you have FTA, Foxtel and Kayo. many more options. People can still do the mothers day thing then watch the game at home. Especially if the forecast is poor. That is without the distractions of getting a seat on line.
  4. Nothing, in my view $ are what counts. Look at the NFL is the US. It is on various networks with some having sunday games and other monday night etc.
  5. Whatever returns the most money is the AFL mantra. They are not concerned about who has the rights and what they do, we run a bad last BBP.
  6. I think they give it a red hot go but as the game progress and their fitness wain the superior Skill level of their opponents takes over.
  7. Night games I stay home LDC. With being the champs that means the number of games I attend will be less. So I am one of the ones you talk about.
  8. I see Gil and the AFL chairman are off to the states for discussions on the new rights deal. Who are they seeing? could it be a new option. Perhaps Channel ten and their owners CBS. or ESPN? Interesting I don't every remember them doing similar when doing the past deals.
  9. And he is now very liable with set shots.
  10. All good I was originally expressing a comment about how long a player gets depending on his draft position. The earlier you are selected the longer you are kept in general. We all have theory’s and on average we are wrong however what is fan site for if not to express our views.
  11. Do you really think that what we say on here will have any effect on a players performance either postive it negative?
  12. He is however a good depth player. I am glad we have him.
  13. At 6 and zero I think they would play him at Casey, he has played 2 minutes this season. Give Him a week to get some match play under his belt.
  14. They are now a fading team that knows they cannot beat the top teams without Dusty so they try to counter the other teams tactics in the hope that will get them home.
  15. Wont happen Nasher whatever the TV media want they get and to hell with the morality of the situation.
  16. All over and least bad ( great English ) has won. Got to say I don't think either will threaten the flag in 2022. Well the Bombers certainly won't.
  17. Gee Essendon are slow in the decision depart I have seen three times when they have switched play and there is a free bombers player and the player with the ball looks around for other options, defence closes out the free Bomber player and he has to kick to a contest. Then near the boundary in Essendon forward line , 2 Pies versus Springer rather than Springer chase down the ball he choices to bump. Pies clear the ball.
  18. Mitch brown was given the push from Essendon as they judge him NQR. IMO the Weid is NQR. If he was a higher draft pick the same would have happened by now. I canned Spargo, in a similar time frame he has proved me wrong. When will the Weid?
  19. None of the above I am just making a comment about his ability and the better ride that early draft picks get over later ones. Read my comment how you like but that is how I see it.
  20. If he was drafted at 49 and called Sam Smith he would gone by now.
  21. 1.10 game may not suit you JDM but it sure suits me. I will be there with bells on.
  22. Agree. Are we sure Viney and Lever are ok for the next round? Everyone seems to be just assuming they will be.
  23. I dislike Essendon and pies in equal measure well almost but a draw in that game would be good. Knock draw out brawl would be great so that they are behind the 8 ball next week.
