  1. Surely you're extracting the urine?
  2. I agree, I like look of him a lot.
  3. My point is that there is such group think around the top 10 to 20 players each year, usually based on current rather than future ability.
  4. My guess is that in five years time the best player from this draft won't have come from the top 5 or even top 10 picks. It just seems to be the way these days.
  5. You mean out of East or South Fremantle?
  6. That's the point, both Scully's and Fyfe's weren't all that exciting but one is now a star and one is a plodder.
  7. No, the most important part is getting the picks right.
  8. I'm not overly excited by his highlights it must be said. However, I wasn't overly excited by Scully's or Fyfe's so it's still very much a lottery.
  9. With Riewoldt staying for another two years it makes sense to me that they would take McCartin now to play under him. Their young midfield stocks are pretty good.
  10. Titus O'Reily hits the nail on the head regarding cricket, but the same could be applied to the AFL.
  11. In fairness, this year we should have had three powerhouse forwards.
  12. The fact that Etihad still has a sub-standard surface is a disgrace. I also don't like the shape of the ground, too skinny.
  13. It seems cyclical where players get bigger for more inside grunt work then slim down for more outside run depending on what is in fashion.
  14. I agree, I have no issue with Collingwood's clash jumper. The Richmond clash jumper is far more of a concern.
  15. Yes, because I'm sure the same people designing the jumpers are out there training the players. We can chew gum and walk at the same time.
  16. I remember hearing Melbourne doing this years ago, nothing new,.
  17. I like that the club logo (Emblem) is no longer on the jumper. Clean and simple. Funnily enough the white jumper with the MFC monogram is essentially one of the options we could vote on a few years ago however the Demon on the front won the poll.
  18. Good thing you're not angry anymore. Where did Clark say this?
  19. The emblem looks good in high resolution situations, but the basic version of it used on clothes and in some printing is terrible. This is where the monogram is useful.
  20. This can't be right, I thought Jack Watts is the only player to be taken with the number one draft pick?
  21. Blue numbers would look terrible, need to be white.
  22. I'll wait until it is confirmed as a clash jumper and not a training jumper before getting too excited.
