  1. Lions v Pies Do we care? Would be nice for some Magpie angst I suppose but they're looking rather safe
  2. Yep it was the suspended part of that fine Must say I was thinking the same thing
  3. Reminds me of those old westerns where you are caught tried and hung in the same day.
  4. And this lady is running their State........? "I know the AFL takes these issues seriously and will take appropriate action." Ms Palaszcuk
  5. It was stuff up as the flight timing was cost neutral: The costs of flying to Cairns would usually be paid by the AFL who would in turn be paid by Qld Govt for putting on a game in Cairns. Swans would have had a half empty plane so no reason we couldn't go with them. The plane carrying Freo would be half empty but the fact remains you still needed the two flights as presumably three teams cannot fit on the one plane. Then there is the cost of an extra 2-3 nights accommodation...not that great in the scheme of things. Only a little thing but it's little things that make the difference between winning and losing and we stuffed up again
  6. At least we can take solace that nothing is open in Maroochydore at 3am. Not sure about Cairns
  7. just appeared... hours behind the other outlets Perhaps they needed to run it past their "editor"
  8. Interesting test of the so called independent journalists in AFL media. Nothing obvious on the AFL website 2 hours after the story has broken
  9. Agree... Balme in Melbourne and how many gaffs by Hardwick and his team.
  10. Looks like they're gone..... Should they be sent home to Melbourne, as seems highly likely, this would leave the Tigers without two players, albeit Stack did not play against Fremantle on Wednesday night. It is a situation that is more fraught for the AFL than even the Tigers. https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/afl-investigating-tiger-pair-arrested-outside-gold-coast-strip-club-20200904-p55ses.html
  11. Given who the players are I'm thinking... out of the hub Not sure if they can be sent back to Melbourne Gil will want a public execution to satisfy his new mistress PS why does "mistress" sound wrong in that sentence? Is master now allowed as an androgynous word
  12. Gil may have to interrupt his poolside time to deal with this
  13. Who are the two pictured players? Punishment is inverse to importance as we know
  14. Perhaps Jaguar is a fitting sponsor Unreliability was their second name
  15. The issue here is that the Swans had 2-3 days on us including training on the ground. These are the things that you expect Pert and Mahoney to fix. Picture what Eddie etc would have done PS Gil probably needed the jet to fly his mates to Brisbane Hell... we could have crowd funded the cost of the flight for the team!!!
  16. Listen carefully to the words May as well be our theme song....
  17. Gusting to 45kph at start now down to 17kph Northern trade winds always drops off with dusk
  18. wind has dropped substantially from the first quarter clutching at straws
  19. we are such a well oiled forward thrusting team.... shame we can't score
  20. well there's 5 of the 6 goals this quarter I was worried about. Seriously do we have a coach
  21. Must admit I was worried this could be a 6 goal quarter from the Suns
