  1. Where was a Melbourne player on the goal line?.......We are dumb as dogsh!t.
  2. Congratulations AFL....you have ruined this once great game. No one knows WTF is going on at all.
  3. Jeffy's too scared to have a shot off his own boot now after that earlier effort........not a bad thing.
  4. Nice of Goody to give the players 4 days off to relax, regroup and focus. They must be absolutely stuffed after 1 win this season and not turning up on the other games. Poor petals.
  5. 4 unpaid free kicks in a row to Melksham.........unpaid....Disgraceful .
  6. I really hope we are playing at 40%......If not we have a bit to do.
  7. Clarry's been quiet too. We appear to be half arsed in our tackling. Hope they get their act together in the next couple of weeks.
  8. Thank you very much. Yes Col always was on for a chat and the first to put up his hand to help out. I think if you drill down we were something like 2nd cousins but were always aware of each other and always had a chat about the footy. He will be missed. Thanks again. Greg Sylvia.
  9. I am a relative of Colin and am shocked and saddened by his passing, Life just isn't fair sometimes. Just in relation to the origins of the name, It is widely believed to be of Portuguese origin. De Silva, De Sylva are some of the derivatives. My Great Grandfather, who would also be a lineal ancestor of Colin was from the upper north east of the USA around Boston Massachusetts. Regards. GS.
  10. Long bomb forward and................turnover....FMD.
  11. Classic...in the goalsquare.....panic takes over.
  12. I'm 53 years old and can remember back when I played and watching the great teams of the 80's and 90's. It was a great game. Surely it wouldn't be too hard to bring back. Holding the ball.....none of this prior opportunity crap, you get the ball and try to kick it or handball it to another of your teammates. You get caught with the ball after a reasonable time, bad luck....Holding the ball....free kick to the opposition. Push in the back......if you are going for the ball and the opposition pushes you in the back....Free kick, you can't do that. Around the neck......If you are tackled above the shoulder, Free kick...You can't do that. No ruck nominations.....if the ruckmen are not able to get to the bounce....bad luck.....someones gotta go up and if its the nearest tallest player, so be it. No deliberate out of bounds....momentum killing bastard of a rule that is too open to interpretation by grandstanding umpires. Protected zone....[censored] it off completely.....Ask Harmes how well it's working. Dropping the ball......If you are tackled and the ball spills out, free kick to the tackler......or if the opposition get the ball, Advantage....... Simple really. Fix this up and we will have a great game again, not the frustrating shadow of its former self that we endure now.
