  1. No HTB to Kossie right in front.
  2. How can one maggot call touched then another pays the mark?
  3. And looks like Harmes the sub
  4. Exactly. Cripps Cheated the system. And I cannot understand why the maggots love him when he argues every decision and more particularly every non decision.
  5. Has any major sporting code ever had a successful sojourn into the Gold Coast. As far as I know (happy to be corrected) Rugby, soccer and basketball have also tried and failed.
  6. Is there any other player in the comp who is anywhere near this? I am interested just where did that stat come from. Superimpressive. And PS - like Frittata, he kicks really well with either foot. Hard for a defender to know which way they will turn.
  7. Perhaps Curnow and McKay will now realise that not every defence is as bad as WCE. McKay in particular just looks like a spectator when he ant grab a mark.
  8. Carlton players seem to be allowed to dispute just about every time they get a free against them - I remember that got 7 goals from 50s against us last preseason (which was excessively overzealous I admit) but they get away with murder.
  9. Richo is really just about as dumb as BT - the entire commentary is moronic bloke banter. Unfortunately this season I have been unable to sync digital, direct or AFL app radio commentary. "If Carlton get a goal they will be 27 points down - they are now 33 down, BT". WOW.
  10. Oh the irony of them missing by half a game after their draw with Tigers. Well it is a big word, even though it was not the appropriate one - lackadaisical Bruise free perhaps Voss, Hird, Buckley in the same boat.
  11. So we would need to get rid of Langdon and Hunter ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜ฎ
  12. Carlton's defence is putrid. As is the Blue centric umpiring - not just the frees paid but those not paid. Throws, HTB missed.
  13. Agree 100%, when he is near 100%. When he shows his best form and stamina at Casey, even if it takes a month, he should be straight back in, but not before.
  14. He is on a tie with Chris Scott as the least likeable coach in the AFL.
  15. Would imagine that Salo would ease in - maybe a half at Casey then 2 or 3 full games then promoted on form.
  16. WARNING: NO GAME IS A GIMMIE! dee-tox - you may have noted that AzzKikA used the singular "supporter" not the plural Undoubtedly BB is well beyond his prime, and struggling physically, and may or may not get back to be a regular. But we should always remember that he ws our PREMIERSHIP FF! Tell me more about Duursma please. Size, position, speed etc. Thanks.
  17. Maybe not - but otherwise we could have broken the 186 margin Several players NB Tracc and Clarrie were heavily managed - which was good in that it offered others more midfield time and experience
  18. And of Cours ethey would want a multimillion state taxpayer stadium of their own ๐Ÿ˜  But is that stadium worth $200,000,000 which seems to be the prerequisite (at least was from Gill, not sure about Dill) Absolutely now way a Darwin based team could run a full AFL winter season. Climate is just not conducive as we have already seen too many times. So would Colonwood be required to play every year either in WS or Canberra? Not bloody likely.
  19. Sure would be nice to see that hangar, but also he does need to stay down a bit more and crumb brilliantly. I would rather the same be said of week 4.
  20. Can Mark please spend some time with Max, and Max spend time with Mark.
  21. And Clarkson could coach them ๐Ÿค— An odd number of teams would make the abomination of the โ€œdrawโ€ (FIXture) even worse, but I guess we can all surmise who will be looked after and who wonโ€™t. The talent pool is already low so it will dig ever deeper. Merging Saints Hawks and North (all of whom have voluntarily played in Tasmania) creates a 16 team competition which somewhat equalises the FIXture and also spreads the talent pool both for players and umpires. This will never be allowed by those who control the AFL, that is the media, who would prefer 20 teams. In summary we will be stuck with the bye bye bye VFL type of scheduling which is so grossly unfair. But then fairness has never ever bee a priority at AFL HQ.
  22. Petty provides a competitive strong marking option up forward, who also applies strong defensive pressure. Unless and until BBB or TMcD show that they are fit / injury-free enough, and hit some form, surely Petty stays. Maybe Disco can get a run as a third tall defender soon.
  23. Or maybe it is the name Chindler? (Mispronounced by a New Zealander) How dare you mention that name on a happy thread. How dare you. ๐Ÿ˜ 
  24. Wow. That was just so well done. We are so fortunate to have had these two as captains and of course as players.
  25. "Yep. Him [JVR] and McVee could do with a rest within the next two weeks. " By " a rest " do you mean playing at Casey or just vegging out?
