  1. He may be a beautiful kick, but how does a skirt like Aaron Fiora run around on his own all night. :angry:
  2. I'm nervous about Holland. Gehrig dacked him last game (final) but fortunately we could switch him on to peg leg Hamill. No Hamill, no slow codgers...who does he play on????? Kosi's too fast but Holland would be competitive one out. Blake too mobile? Clarke will stay in the ruck, and Rix off the bench, will be too busy getting a belting by White/Jamar. I dont like Miller down back (or forward for that matter) The drive from the backline looks to come from wayward Ward, Whelan (champ), Bell the Worrier/Warrior and the occasional line breaker from lollipops Carroll. The backline makes me nervous. The midfield, forward line (apart from Robbo at CHF - although doubt it will stick), interchange bench and the saints line up, on the other hand, makes me hugely excited! Go Demons
  3. # The dog is easier on the eye, nose and has less fleas too
  4. I'm not satisfied you did enough! It's not like it's a total fire ban or anything.
  5. Many thanks for the reports. Can we have some info on player positions eg. Was Dunn in the same team as Miller and if so where? Also CJ? Did Brown play on the ball? Bizz on HBF? The newbies? Cheers!
  6. I find Bode puzzling. He came to the club as rated to be picked in the draft (reasonably early...30s?) and with a rep as a state level 200m runner. He loooked hopeless in the NAB cup last year, making it understandable why he was overlooked. After a long season he makes a bit of progress and gets some gigs in the Sandy ones toward year's end (like Buckley). I then read he runs like a crab and later is in BB's project group along with Dunn et al to improve their running techniques and ultimately speed and mobility. It's quite odd. Nevertheless he's got another year to develop and improve so good luck to him. The rookie list is giving him the time he obviously needs.... he's certainly got his work cut out for him.
  7. I'm more disturbed by Joffa being described as an 'icon' FFS
  8. Whelan is in IT Bizzell is an 'actor' Brown is/was doing a course to assist with becoming a firey Yze has an interest in a labour hire co Jeff White works in the pro shop at RMGC Bartram/Neville are doing VCE part time Ben Holland is a podiatrist Carroll is something like a boiler maker Dunn has something to do with social work
  9. Dont be backwards about coming forward Decoy. I dont think I'm the only one who's gaggin to hear what's happening on the track. A question or two: Did you notice if Whelan and Pickett were there? - both were with the rehab group last training and I think Whelan has been since the break. Which group did Bell train with? Ditto Holland? Cheers for the update!
  10. Not only rule changes but also possession style footy (dinking it round in the back line / keepings off in the dying minutes of the game /quarter etc) coupled with flooding (IMO akin to time wasting).
  11. After hours of analysis, I came to a similar conclusion as above. On a height to weight ratio - Geelong = fat lazy bastards
  12. Grammar tip for the day: Aborigines at our club or Aboriginal players at our club Cheers Joeboy
  13. The kid comes in with decent talent and a good rap. I wish him well and hope he isn't saddled with a 'walkabout' tag before he gets a gig. <_<
  14. Saw Trent Knobel, Richard Tambling and 2 other unidentifiable toigs in Richmond. Dead boring really!
  15. My 2 cents worth: To date, I have turned up uninvited (but expected) to friends and family's places to watch the demons on Foxtel. I have zero interest in Foxtel apart from the footy channel - just cant get excited about re-runs of shows like Here's Lucy etc. In 2007, I was resigned to signing up to foxtel so I could be just like you WJ and also to repay the hospitality. NOW I DONT HAVE TO!!!!!! BTW An NTFL game sounds like great viewing. Thanks for the trip down memory lane with the wrestling.....Andre the Giant, Mario Milano, Haystacks Calhoon, Spiros Arion (sp) - remember those greats? LOL
  16. It's a little disconcerting that IR players talk of the honour of playing under Sheedy with the end result being more a brawl than a contest.
  17. Whoooah there tiger. This aint Australian Idol! The boy runs and runs and smashes. There will be no bikinis on Nathan Jones FFS! :angry:
  18. I remember Carroll up until about round 5 had only conceded one free kick. Any more since then? Great stuff from Disco a go go!
