  1. I liked this one from WC - Melb: "Free kick Melbourne... Cox blocking"
  2. Jeez I loved his fury - Was so angry!!! Loved his work rate rate in the centre square before the ball was bounced - Alas, it was all to often downhill after the opening bounce.
  3. Or is there just nothing going on....
  4. Are you serious - This paragraph is the basis for the Trenners tackly being deemed a reportable offence? The way this reads, a player could get rubbed out for 3 weeks for making accidental contact with a team mate!!!! Precedent has now been set: Tackle aside, a player can now get rubbed out while: - Marking: Hanger, or back with the flight of the ball - Both have potential to cause accidental high contact with opposition player or team mate: Both would breach "Duty of Care" - Kicking: Opposition attempts to smother - Potential to cause accidental high contact - If there grounds to reasonably expect a smother is forthcoming - Breach "Duty of Care" - And dont get me started on the dangers of the warm up - Particulary the increased risk when multiple footballs are being kicked around.
  5. Has the 'red' of the demonland forum template been updated to replicate the current 'red' of the demons jumper? Or is it the other way around? The 2 are almost identical!!!
  6. Cant wait for our young midfield and forwards to capitalize on the turnovers he creates... I wouldn't be surprised if he only gets a handfull of games before Clarko drops him due to: a) Being too soft, B) Being the Catalyst for turnovers, c) Creating pressure for his team mates.
  7. Pretty sure I saw a Pre-Grand Final joke on just this subject... "A Lawyer and a Collingwood supporter race each other in a drag race - Just after crossing the finish line, they both loose control of their vehicles, spin off a cliff, and plummet to the rocks below... Who wins??? ANSWER: Society."
  8. Ummm.... I know a couple of filth supporter's who NEED a lawyer...
  9. Tacky... Show your passion by donating the equivilient cost of the Tattoo to the club, or by purchasing a 2nd membership... BTW - I am not anti-tattoo's, but the thought of any AFL associated tatt congers up images of that Filth supporter with them all over his body. Also more acceptable if you actually play the game....
  10. Here we go again.... Classic example of gender bias descrimination. The only reason she has the job is because she is female - I wonder how many better qualified men missed out on that role. Then again, if what Channel 10 have now is the cream of the crop, perhaps there was no other option but Kelly. Would be better suited to boundary riding with comments that could be written for her.
  11. Gold Chost 'Implants' has a nice ring to it... Great options for the emblem The Gold Coast 'Bleachers' or 'Rippers' could also be appropriate
  12. In: Sylvia, Watts Out: Dunn, Newton Would have liked to have snuck Strauss back in also, but noone else really deserved to be dropped. Bruce broke even in my view - Provided some good run and linked up well at times, also stalled movement forward by going wide instead of kicking aimlessly to Adelaide numbers. That said, he was still guilty of poor decisions and disposal - Best game I have seen from him for a while... Controversial? Based on todays effort, Rivers and Martin are going to find it hard to regain their respective spots.
  13. Tough Gig If its any consolation, the apparent demons supporting couple I sat next too on Saturday were out for blood from the opening bounce and I dare say enjoyed their experience even less. "Ohh no... Not Frawley!!!" "Just kick it!!!" "No.. dont just kick it" "That was definately a free.." "How embarrassing for Brad Green... Fancy faking being knocked out!!!" Best thing Bate did all day was kick the ball out on the full in the third quarter, which was the last straw for them prompting them to leave. Just be thankful your daughter didn't have to sit infront of these ignorant supporters - They hated life, and would have scarred her for life.
  14. Agreed. Bate came in underdone, but should be better from having the run. Strauss showed a bit and despite one of the worst clangers I have seen, I think he should be persisted with. Unconvinced by Spencer.. Just dont see it yet. Dunn was awful, and Miller was 2 steps behind all day. Brings me to Bruce... One of our most Senior players: Sure he works hard, but his Skills are poor, and his decision making is deplorable - Is he a leader on field? If not, I question why we bother playing him. My Changes for this week. Out Dunn, Spencer In Sylvia, Martin
  15. Word has it that he moved very well for a big man, is a natural athlete, and had never had to work very hard to succeed As it turns out, attitude, and being prepared to bust ya nut is essential if you are going to make it in the AFL. Sadly, Trent never pulled his finger out to be a 'professional' athlete. As such, he was told he would not be on the list next year back in September. No shortage of these stories in the AFL/VFL
