Sure are. '87 1st Semi - Final Quarter. Northey takes off Flower and replaces with -- Rhino.

How dare you!. Russell Richards (aka Rhino) was a cult in the late 80's. All arms and legs and a thick neck to boot. A bit 'agricultural', but a cult nevertheless. Definitely not a dud.

Stupid's the word I would have used here. Does he have any idea of the costs involved in a failed defamation case are?

Hilarious. keep up the good work!

I agree, and the AFL shoulld'nt be sanctioning West Coast for this incident. Addiction is an illness and should be seen as such. Cousins is pre-disposed to this curse and should be supported as much as possible. Just a sad episdode with no winners.

Correct. And there will be more to come through a Class civil action being prepared by customers of AmcOr and Visy who are looking for, some say, another $200M in compensation which would start now the fines are out of the way. In the U.S. you get jail for this. Only fines over here. Big problems trying to get the Pollies to enact the appropriate laws and penalities.

Now iv'e heard everything - Somone quoting Mark Robinson as a credible opinion rather than as a cheer leader for the AFL who states the bleeding obvious.

Sorry, wasn't a personal thing, just quoting George Bush or bill Clinton or whomever. I agree he's not a Demi-god, but he is making a statement on his expectations. I actually think he may believe he can make something of Brad Miller, for example. Not only do I remember ND's arrival, I watched Jimmy run over the mark at Waverley, and Robbie drag us into the finals in '87. Lets hope for more memories in '08

He was more than spent. I think he was concussed by a collision with a team mate and had no option but to come off. A Great game by him. Good luck with the Lions.

As I see it, so far Bailey has done nothing more than ND did when he was appointed. Don't get too excited yet, and some you really need a reality check!

So true. Nathan Jones, as a 19 y/o carried this midfield and will do so for many years. Give me week to week grunt and commitment to occasional, appreciated sublime skills any day.

An excellent post Sylvinator. No further comment needed on this topic IMO

I couldn't have said it better myself Mousey. I loved watching Trapper - but alas not enough of it. For my money, Bailey's motto must surely be ... "my way , or the highway'... This is a Coach who clearly knows what he needs to succeed. I like it already!

Classy post QC, but you're only encouraging him.

What amazes me about this model for Collingwood is that it will put them back years given their glaring deficiencies in the ruck, KP defenders now with Clement gone, and the one dimensional forward line now Rocca is next to useless. Judd will do his back carrying this team - and we'll all have a new player to hate in melbourne.

There isn't much credit given on this site to the Eagles Management. People forget Judd now has what he wanted - going back home. The rest is up to the Eagles to get the best trade deal. If Judd then publicly imposes a further condition on his move, i.e. a specific club, then he will be called for what he has become - a greedy, self-important prima donna with a crook groin, and no appreciation to the organisation that nutured his abilities into a brownlow medallist and Premiership captain with a good tan.

Its official. You are a moron. Bartel is a tough ball magnet that our on-ballers can only hope to aspire to in hardness. He kept the cats in the match, 12 possies in the first 1/4 I think, and guess who had the ball in his hands at the bottom of the pack, 50m's out from the Pies goal when the siren went. No correspondnece will be entered into.

Youv'e hit on it ML. using your logic(?), the following applies L = 12 Y = 25 O = 15 N = 14 this totals 66 6 + 6 = 12 1 + 2 = 3 (Lyon and Judds number) It's a done deal. And, if you add up the birth years of Lyon and Judd, 1967 and 1983 , giving 24 and 21 respectively, the difference is ....3!

Good point.

How do you figure that? His sole reason for leaving Perth , publicly stated, was to join his family in melb, and he wouldnt enter the PSD. To now impose a further condition is unlikely to be his style, given the Eagles have acceded to his key request. The rest now is up to west coast to get what they see as a fair trade deal.

What any of the above say doesn't count. West Coast make the final decsion - where Judd wants to go is irrelevant. West coast want a certain type of deal and nothing less. They have to be happy first

THIS HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE MIGHTY DEMONS GETTING JUDD THEN DOES IT? save this for some other chat room will you!

That's the whole point. I loved watching him take the one ''speccie' a game, but it doesn't win you finals,and is selfish in the extreme. There is no value in this approach to play. Robbo had grossly over-estimated his value, and this will end in tears.

You are kidding? Where DO you live - Mars?
