  1. The Shepherd for Hunt ,whilst good and very effective is just sometthing that should be happening evrywhere,every game,by every player. It's not soimething we should be celebrating but something we should just expect to happen. Takes very little skill and does a lot to win games.
  2. Joeboy-Hard task master. I thought the veterans were all great and obviously the new boys are very exciting.
  3. When the game requires it . Which is often.
  4. 6. Langdon 5.Gawn 4.Hunt 3.Pickett 2.Jones 1.ANB
  5. Optomism fromn WYL. It's a different year.
  6. I've organised Special Robert to be at your place by 9 for the road trip. He has packed a lunch for you and insists on the front seat in the Merc.
  7. The "Academy". An entire state to draft from with an AFL funded coaching system and a guarantee of the best players from the most populous state in the country.
  8. What channel do they usually put that on? Times have changed.
  9. Rocket was an absolute gun and I knew about his off-field behaviour years ago but did not know about the perverts in his school and at Little league. Explains much about him . I've known a few people with that background of abuse that ended up ruining thier lives. I don't blame Stewart for giving him a game at 16. He needed a mentor off field and they failed to provide that . St Kilda was a circus.
  10. The Cordners are popular among the older brigade of Melbourne Fans.I doubt they were better than Schwartz or Nietz even on team balance. A flag will re-write history.
  11. My players are based on 1985 onwards. Prior to that I was a kid in Sydney watching the Roosters . There are several current players who could make this list one day. 1. Schwartz -All round ability-An absolute freak -any position. 2.Nietz- Most reliable,consistent performer ,best shot on goal.Mark it down anywhere within 60M. 3.Flower-Elegant ,fast, super-skilled but fragile. 4.Lyon -The total package-is as good an all round player as there has been. 5.Farmer- Freak speed,mark,kick and for his size was actually one of the most feared men to wear the jumper.( had a temper).
  12. Up until Peter Bell he was the greatest Asian footballer of all time. (Sam Pang rated himself top 5 ) I loved the Mullet era. Ricky Jackson,Stinga, Grinter ,Sugar,Lyon,Stynes,Newport,Strawbs,TC ,Stretchmarks,Lovett etc . What a great team.
  13. Councils like this should stick to doing what they do best.... Speaking out on national issues they have no control of. Destroying public assets for the benefit of no one in particular. Promoting ethnic minorities who have not neccessarily asked for assistance to display their wokeness. Handicapping young men and discouraging them from participating in leadership positions. Throwing rate payers money at the promotion of homosexuality Putting down dogs Interfering in the running of successful businesses/venues Self -promoting and slush fund splurging Advertising for re-election with rate payers money. Nobody wants a council to maintain parks,streets and public spaces,clean rubbish and provide efficient ,quiet service to the community.If an inner city council is not politicicising and grandstanding then they really should think about why they got into the job in the first place.
  14. Lovely kick but the compass is broken. Should be fixable.
  15. Any more than 10 witches hats on the oval at one time and we have a problem.. Take it to the bank.
  16. The AFLs need to attach every game to a cause or an issue is really irritating. I dont like being told how to think ,or what to think about societal issues or personal values on matters the AFL thinks it can inform or "highlight". Many of us go to the football,or turn on the game just to relax. I suppose people will will point to "The Big Freeze" as a good way to raise funds for a worthy cause but it now seems to be every single game.
  17. I need to talk to someone- about how lame the umpires are.
  18. i hate concerns, people who use the word "concerns/ed and/or appropriate/inapprpriate".
  19. Terrible day but I had Krone into Profiteer for the Slipper. Not clever enought to take the 15s on offer for Krone. My mate owns a small bit of Profiteer . Next week will be big for me if it gets up. Might buy myself a new domestic slave. The current one is getting uppity.
  20. Absolutely true. Why bother arguing against it. Coaches can't win games.Physios cant win games. Supporters can only keep feeding money to this failure ridden pack of losers until the players have had enough of being laughed at.
  21. So the point easily missed is women were never ever going to be excluded from the event as the club allows female guests but denies female memberships much as some clubs deny male membership. Another non-issue made into an issue thewn re-issued.
  22. I'll be down the Savage. With the lads. The woke need not apply.
  23. I thought you worked for the Education dept. Which one of those 40 weeks a year were you made to "work hard" in?
