Thanks

At what levels of junior football would contested ball stats be kept? Does anyone know?

I think you have it back to front. Just as the square of a negative provides a positive number, two dislikes will provide a like.

Should keep this in perspective. No-one rated him highly enough to pick him in 65 picks of the National Draft or the first round of the Rookie Draft. But, like all players put on a rookie list, he now has his chance and I wish him all the best.

I don't want to think about what sort of product Max Gawn means to you.

Wow. 128 posts (before this one) on the "Like" button. Yep, we're in the off season.

As much as I like the 'like' button I quite understand your priorities. Those of us who have too much time on our hands and are commenting from the cheap seats (just to re-ignite an unnecessary debate) should make the point that we appreciate everything you do to keep the site running. Hopefully, a few posters will read this and intuitively move their cursor to the 'like' button position and give a theoretical click.

We may not hear about them, but I'll bet they exist both for individual players and the team as a whole.

It's Time uses Groucho Marx as his avatar. Groucho famously said he wouldn't join any club who would have him as a member. Clearly what amuses me doesn't appear to have the same affect on others. My apologies to all concerned.

It's Time, just wondering...are you a member of the Melbourne FC?

Based on the last few years, if we don't get it back by March, we may as well replace it with a "Dislike" button. That will save lot's of time.

Given this picture is likely either men in lycra or a public urinal, I'm grateful the image doesn't show up on my PC.

Taggert or Couch? I was interested in Taggert v Jetta.

I've never seen Taggert train or play at any level. For those who have, do you think he's a better prospect to rookie than Neville Jetta?

As important as Mitch's foot is, I think you having a baby might have been the bigger news story.

A closed training session on Gosch's paddock? How does that work? To answer my own question with a question, was it an "unpublicised" training session, perhaps?

I can see why you think so. But you need to look more broadly than just whether anyone liked your posts.

I doubt a recruiter would ever admit he got it wrong. From the day after Draft Day, any failure is the fault of the development coaches.

A minor quibble, but waiting until they've played "a game" is where the Wines v Toumpas angst began. I'd suggest we leave it until they've played at least 50 games each.

Thankyou Robbie57 for sticking with "give 100%" and not going with the ridiculous and physically impossible "give 110%". Keep the 110% for the cliche's thread.

Except on Demonland. Pity. (No, I don't mean you, Robbie57)

The summary appears to be skills (Salem) v X-factor (Freeman). If that's the choice, I'd go skills every time.

Is Demonland clever enough that we could actually select posters we want to have this problem? I can think of a few...

Very few players consistently play 22 games per season. I believe we had two last season (Jones x 2) but happy to be corrected if I've got this wrong.

Just want to comment on the OP suggestion that Viney should be in the leadership group in 2014. I don't think that's wise. If he is "captain material" he'll get there when he's a bit older. In the meantime, just let him develop his game.
