  1. The AFL player ratings are stupid. Its like they asked one of the staff writers children to come up with a system of ranking the best players. But sadly it was the actual afl.com employees who created it.
  2. His form isnt whats disappointing me (although its a bit down on last year), its more the lack of pack splitting aggression that we saw constantly last season. He hasnt been as intimidating. Maybe its just 2nd year blues.
  3. The afl.com Brownlow Predictor has him on 16 votes before last nights game... will be tuning into the count for the first time in years as we should have some guys poll really well, namely Gawn, Viney, Tyson and Jones.
  4. A PP alone wont save Brisbane. They are almost like us a few years ago. They need a Paul Roos to come in and build everything from the ground up and totally change the culture. I cant think of anyone obvious that can do that for them, Roosy is a rare breed.
  5. What the hell, check the RIsing Star odds,. Oliver 9th favourite and paying $67? Are you kidding me? http://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/australian-rules/afl-rising-star His last two weeks against quality opposition in wins have been huge, and he is impacting the game as much as any teenager you will see and doing things on the field no teenager should be allowed to do in the AFL. Petracca is 3rd favourite, but Oliver has been better surely?
  6. Die from excitement and nerves,,,, the last game of the year and we could be fighting for a finals spot.
  7. If things go our way, theres a good chance we would be playing the Cats in consecutive weeks. Wouldn't that be something? Getting ahead but I wonder if it would be held at Etihad or Kardinia park? Doubt it would be at the MCG. Dont think we will need to worry about the percentage gap between us and the Kangas for Round 23, as it will evaporate next weekend when the Swans mash them.
  8. When you put it this way it really hits home that we are a proper footy team again... I just realised I dont know the name of one kid in the coming draft. Usually I am studying all the prospects by round 8 as our seasons normally over by then.
  9. Zero chance of that happening, they will be fighting for a top 4 spot.
  10. Some people predicted we would win zero more games after that St Kilda loss. In the 4 games since, we are 3-1 with the only loss being by a goal vs Eagles in Perth.
  11. Brownlow night will be worth watching for Demon supporters for the first time in a long time. We already have 10 wins and a few close losses and should have a few players poll very well. Another great game from Max tonight, I am backing him for a top 3 place in the medal.
  12. Was never wise to write off a 19 year old KPD in just his second season with less than 20 games under his belt. Kid will be a player and a half.
  13. The Eseendon loss seems to have woken us from our slumber. No point dwelling on it, as it seems we used it as a very valuable lesson.
  14. His 20 possessions include 8 inside 50's, 5 rebound 50's and 2 score assists. Hes a total weapon all over the ground.
  15. For the 2nd week in a row. The Roos mantra of drafting big bodied competitive players has turned us into the bullies. Next year we will be crushing teams physically and mentally.
  16. First win over Port in Adelaide since 2000 - Broken
  17. First win over Port in South Australia since 2000.... our Grand Final year
  18. WE ARE BACK BOYS AND GIRLS.. YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
  19. Just imagining Cloke the dinosaur clogging our forward line and totally ruining the chemistry between Hogan, Watts and the rest. Couldn't think of a worse recruit.
  20. All-Australian players – AFL (since 1991)[edit] Main article: All-Australian Jim Stynes (1991, 1993) Garry Lyon (1993, 1994, 1995) Stephen Tingay (1994) Todd Viney (1998) Jeff Farmer (2000) Adem Yze (2002) David Neitz (1995, 2002) Jeff White (2004) James McDonald (2006) James Frawley (2010) Mark Jamar (2010) Max Gawn (2016) Lock it in.
  21. Im sure they will just have multiple top 5 picks waiting to take his place
