  1. It's all in the mind......If you were kicking to a mate 40m away 9 times out of ten you would get the ball to him....But put a set of goal post in there ........and the pressure comes on....Ignore the post and just kick to a person or target in the crowd. It always worked for me.
  2. I don't think I have seen anywhere that Hogan or May have requested a trade. So all these arguements over draft picks and trade senarios are just p*** and wind until that happens. I don't listen to any of the trade news. I hate trade week(s) It's just a cattle market with no respect for club or player. See you when it's completed.
  3. Who do you think will replace a 195cm 100kg KPF, 23 year old who has kicked 153 goals (47 this year) and plays all over the ground? He kicked 1.3 yesterday and you want to trade him????
  4. Wow Yeah, lets trade a key position strong forward who is 23 years old with a great future before him for 3 raw kids Great idea Thank god some of you are nowhere near the list management of the club
  5. Wow Great Umpire bashing already. I am sure that the AFL conspire to fix games for particular teams (not) Umpires pay them as they see them, do not have the benefit of tv close ups or replays. Yes they make mistakes but far less than players. It doesn't help that they seem to have a rule of the week, every week but usually they do a fairly good job
  6. Gee there are some nasty people on this site Unbelievable
  7. Just read most of the comments. Typical demonland. Sack everyone LAST YEAR St Kilda thrashed Richmond by 67 points after leading at 3 1/4 time by 90 points Richmond members were (again burning memberships) but that turned out alright for the tigers didn't it? We are at round 4 ROUND 4 We are 1 win off top spot. This is the most even season that I have seen. Any team can beat any other on any given day Christ Collingwood beat Adelaide in Adelaide with half it's forward line missing. Yep it was a terrible poor game from the dees but there is another game next week against a good side So how about we put all the knives away for a couple of more weeks
  8. Well Ater reading this thread I'm going to put my membership in the microwave throw out all my scrarfs, and all my footy stuff. We should (according to posters) Sack the coach, Cull half the list Ohh we won? Forget the above

    I agree with you Red The vision of Smith being escorted through Cape Town airport was not much different to watching a well known drug dealer being escorted thought an airprt in Bali. Paki players banned for match fixing? All back playing for their country. Sth Africa's captain twice cited for ball tampering. Still captain of his country. This reaction is way over the top.
  11. How about you ask Tyson, who dislocated his knee and had to continue walking/ running as there was no medical assistance in attendance How about you ask Hibbert who had a heel soreness but had to continue walking/running as there was no medical assistance Missed the first 4 games. How about you ask Salem who had concussion but had to continue walking/running as there was no medical assistance and had concussion issues throught the year, but that camp toughen them up really well didn't it? I don't get your last comment? Who was my favorite small from 6 years ago?
  12. Jesus mate..... Have you ever been on one of these camps? The main aim is to break you down and then rebuild you to a point where you usefull for a cause ie battle I have been on a few and all I got out of it was crook as a dog and praying for it to end. I am no tougher than I was It was a debarkle last year. 3 players reported in the first couple of games, not the leadership we wanted at that stage but were they tough? I don't care what the media says about us......We will get done this year and we will win some gutsy ones so even is the competition. When we do lose it will have nothing to do with a camp not held months ago.
  13. I don't know why everyone's upset about what the media thinks about us. It's simple......The proof of the pudding is in the eating. We will do our best...whether it's good enough or not will show at the end of the year.

    I reckon Trade week has become a blood sport, vultures sitting in the stands waiting for another of our players to fall and gleefully gloating when the axe comes down. Some on here want 10 to 15 players gone, I know it's the current trend but how can you sign up for 2 or 3 year contract and then be traded 1 year in? What's the point of a contract? We missed the finals by a bee's you know what, you would think that we didn't win a game all year the way some are talking Any way, tuning out for trade weeks (months)

    Don't worry MD.......We have the Australian cricket side to keep us amused through the summer.

  19. Can you block a thread???? I don't think I can stand this for the next 1 and a1/2 years.

    A few years ago I went to LA and decided to take a day trip to Tijuana Mexico, after doing the tourist thing I decided to explore the back streets and was promptly arrested, handcuffed thrown against a wall and searched. All my belonging were strewn across the footpath by some of the local constabulary and I thought "What are my rights in Mexico? I don't think I had any. After it was decided that I was not a drug lord I was released and promptly went to a small bar to calm down. I then got on the bus for the return trip By the time I got to the US boarder I was in urgent need to relieve myself, after going through customs cross legged I found the 25 cents to use the McDonald mens room. When I came out my bus had taken off without me. As with all times of stress I proceeded to light up a dart and was tapped on the shoulder by the biggest Afro-American policeman I have ever seen and it was pointed out to me all the no smoking signs about the place. My bus then came back for me and proceed to take me to my hotel which was reminded me of the Bates Motel. I went in double locked the door, ignored the screams a few doors down and drank myself to sleep. So I'm up for the trip Earl.
  21. Bloody Hell The kid is in his second year and all the "experts" are getting the knives out....He is not a 26 year old with 150 games experience He is a 20 year old who has played ONE season and has a lot of expectation on his shoulders. The record books will show that he kicked 3 goals in a win for the club. How when and why will not even be remembered.
  22. His wife is American and he has stated that he wants to spend time with her and her family and will be o/s a lot of the time. But who knows, at this stage he is our coach. The future will take care of itself.
  23. Pretty hard to do from America.
  24. I still think Parish will be a very good footballer and will follow his career with interest. I look forward to seeing how both boys turn out in the next few years.

    I'm afraid I have to put my hand up here.........I'd rather eat a sour lemon.
