  1. No it counts. I unreservedly apologise to other DL posters as i know how patronising it is to be told by a forum poster what they should do or think
  2. The cas seconded him to geneva to prepare the torture chamber for the arrival of etc players
  3. Been burnt on this before but I honestly believe watts will be the breakout player. High half forward pushing up the ground and delivering the ball inside 50. 30 odd goals as cream on top. Despite the issues by far our most skilled and talented player. Will have a year like Gibbs did last year. The mark he took to win the game against the doggies is a sign of things to come. He hasn't got much love for that mark but it was a ripper. Tricky wind. H was going for goal but miskicked it making it helicopter spin with a flat trajectory. Watts read it beautifully and clunked it
  4. Bb one of the things I find frustrating with both your and dees2014s commentary on this issue is the repeated line that the fix is in and the afl will in fact determine the penalty not the independent tribunal. Essentially what you are suggesting is 3 much respected members of the legal fraternity are corrupt. Also you seem to suggest it is fact not a fantasy of yours.And don't get me started on the doomsday scenarios involving mutiple appeals, the big bad wada wolf and the all powerful cas
  5. Honesty what a load of ill informed tosh. Average defenders don't get runner up in b and fs
  6. Good post good vibes. I'm a sucker for the watts and toump shares and happy to speculate. I'll leave the hogan shares. Too expensive and it will take me a couple of injury free years to stop being nervous about that investment. Happy to buy some Grimes, Basil and m Jones shares and invest heavily in the blue chip dunn and Jones shares
  7. Steveman I read once on here about confirmation bias theory. I wonder if that might apply a bit with your assessment of Grimes. He was one of our best players. Hitting short targets should not be underestimated. He nailed his unlike Tyson and Salem who both had some right clagers. But more significantly Grimes nailed some attacking kicks really well, one of which (a bullet into the forward fifty) set up a scoring shot. To my eye he seemed to have made some technical adjustments to his kicking action.
  8. The Crowley bust no good for the efc spin machine. Hard to reconcile a likely 18 month ban with lesser penalties for multiple use of peds
  9. I see little told the efc faithful at their season launch that they are confident players will be cleared. Funny how this pronouncement gets full back page treatment
  10. Gws, st kilda and mfc. Bottom 3 sides. And Newbold complains about equalisation measures.
  11. Funny you should say that wj. Matty Lloyd, doc Larkin's and g Healy were bagging asada for their tardiness on 3aw tonite, which I thought was ridiculous
  12. Bontempelli looks a star doesn't he. Huge for a mid and will fill out even more
  13. Heezus bb are you serious? Credit where credit is due. Good job mfc. Sounds like all did a top job
  14. %100 agree nasher. However I'm wondering if you meant to post this in another thread. Can't see many puns in this one
  15. Watched the game today for the first time. The toump was terrific. Not sure where this tackle stuff comes from. One he laid some great tackles himself. Two yes he got caught with it a couple of times but so do m Jones and viney (who seems to escape critisim because of his attack on the ball). Instead of the photo of him being tackled we might have equally referenced the play where he brilliantly avoided a tackle and won the ball in the forward pocket setting up an easy goal. Class
  16. Replay available at http://bigpondvideo.com/. Note it will only be at that site for perhaps rest of today. Go to AFL TV tab on sport video. Bigpond only has last 2 games up. The other option is AFL live pass but even you get a four week free trial you have to enter credit card details and if you don't cancel it roll over into weekly payments after 4 weeks
