  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

  6. 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.
  7. If they have DC They are prob broke
  8. So.....Let me get this right.... We now have A home jumper An away jumper An alternitive Jumper An ANZAC day jumper A pink breast cancer jumper An aboriginal jumper And now a 160 jumper I feeling a bit confused
  9. Don't worry MD.......We have the Australian cricket side to keep us amused through the summer.
  10. No worries Earl........Just need time to put my artificial legs on. I am an expert at finding bombs
  11. Can you block a thread???? I don't think I can stand this for the next 1 and a1/2 years.
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. 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.
  16. I'm afraid I have to put my hand up here.........I'd rather eat a sour lemon.
  17. I think it is a toss up between security and potential .....Sign now for 5 years and if you do a knee or other injury or lack of fitness or form you still get your money If you have the same injuries or lack of form in the last year of your contract your value will drop. Just thinking out loud.
  18. Wow......Eight threads about the Essendon crap........Might stop coming here for a while
  19. Played 11 games in his first year on the list......Often as the sub which equates to a quarter here and a quarter there. Did some very good things in matches and also panicked a few times as he got used to the tempo. I feel that he will be a very good player for us in the future. He is only nineteen.
  20. I see the Gat is up for sale...........Gees Biff.....What are you going to do now........Maybe you could buy it????
  21. "Well son......We are trying to build a TEAM.....We want another big man up forward but we will do what is best for the team and the club and if that's another midfielder, well suck it up and play the best you can . You have played 20 games.....We know what we are doing." Please don't tell me we will kowtow to a bloke who has played just 20 games....No matter how good he is.
  22. Though out history....Man has needed Gods to try and see reasons behind the crops failing, the floods that ruined their towns, the droughts that left their families dying. They thought that if they could please their gods their could live a full life. It seems that nothing has changed since those faraway days. The world is so advanced these days with so many great inventions and innovations but we still fight about who's god is the greatest. If there is a god, he must be very disappointed in the human race.
  23. I still don't get why posters take a reported payment to a player as gospel.... As I have stated before only the player, his manager and the club KNOW how much a player gets. The media guess and some how it becomes a fact. As Roosy said "Don't believe all the media hype"....How about we just wait til trade week is over and then sh it can the club after we know who's doing what.
  24. Wow....I thought demonland was where everybody could state their opinion and not be personally insulted for having that opinion. It appears that Stuie does not get that same consideration.
