  1. Not sure if that's good or bad... Haven't the Cat's been notoriously bad after the bye in recent times???
  2. It's sad to see him move on, seems a good guy. ...but, in the end you can't keep everyone. Good luck Ben, thanks for your time with us.
  3. Trent Croad...

    This really says a lot about Clarrie... So happy he is still with us,

    He also said we would do what was in the best interest of the club. ...and I think that is the point. Not the 3 picks.

    I think the other thing he was putting forward is that if he's homesick, there are 2 clubs in Perth.
  7. I think we might be hearing more on this tomorrow... ...but there does need to be 2 clear weeks between the last practice match & your first game. Personally I think it's time for practice games to be put to bed.

    They will know your viewing preferences and that you watch footy so unlikely to offer a deal over the season.
  9. I don't know if you're old enough to have experienced the zone system that was around in the VFL days. It's part of the reason our club was in the wilderness for so long. Development should be handled by the AFL rather than the clubs. It is their responsibility to grow the game. If the AFL did their job then players brought through their pathways (not the cubs) would be available to all clubs in the draft. The current system is heading the way of the zones and is open to be rorted. Stories are legendary as to what went down in the "good" old days and it wasn't just brown paper bags...
  10. Get rid of the academies....nothing good has come of this hare brained idea.
  11. I'm leaning towards Bont as well. Curnow would be a good get for our list but even then imagine Bont with Trac...
  12. So...lets not debate the list too much. ...but how about a question. Who would you take if you had the choice of any player in the AFL now? Would Cripps be your number one pick? He wouldn't be mine but I need some think time as to who would be.
  13. Interesting to watch him...and will be over his career. Doesn't appear overly quick, gets to the right positions though & uses it well. Looked like a goal kicking Caleb Daniel to me.
  14. I think it was Bolton before he got pushed by Carlton...

    ...and that post re guitar lessons is funnier than you think.

    I really meant advertising 'bin'...I'm not a believer in banning things. Drug and alcohol being prime examples of it doesn't work,...

    When I saw the thread title I thought we were going to be discussing the idea of getting rid of betting in the AFL. The sooner it happens the better.
  18. rjay replied to The Jackson FIX's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    I would prefer we didn't have a thread on betting at all... ...but, I guess that's just me.
  19. Good call 'Redleg'...ahead of the game with this one.
  20. Thought the same 'Adam'...I didn't get to watch it live and won't see the game until tomorrow night. ...but man I thought we were getting smashed then someone put the score up.

    A game with nothing hanging on the result is always boring...it has nothing to do with the length. It's why I didn't bother watching.

    I don't hold out any hope...but a government worth it's salt would keep and enforce anti syphoning legislation to stop this happening.

    It seems to matter to him and only weakens his argument of being home sick. Strengthens our case to keep him to his contract.

    I'm happy with Windsor...

    That's how I read it...
