Yes. A bit different to Neale Daniher who was always a bit slow with the moves and very conservative with younger players. However, I think the youth policy might be a direction from the Board rather than a coach led decision.

How's this for an injury list:- SYDNEY Peter Faulks (groin) - test Jared Crouch (hamstring) - indefinite How do they do it year in, year out?

Alwyn Davey injured in the second quarter James Hird injured in the second quarter Dustin Fletcher fluffed his kick offs Free kick count even Some easy shots at goal missed

The rest of Inside Football's pretty funny too with Blinders and Shockers by The Ox heading the bill. He writes about Docker Robert Warnock and underneath there's a picture of brother Matthew Warnock who plays for us.

FWIW 6. Jeff White then daylight to 5. Ben Holland 4. Nathan Jones 3. Daniel Bell 2. Matthew Bate 1. Colin Sylvia

There's an interesting Age article about the AFL threatening to sue The Punt Road End Tiger website for infringing the broadcast rights of its internet partner, Telstra by including video highlights of excerpts of Richmond games. Big Brother is watching.

Sorry Brownlow, he must do the research because according to the online encyclopaedia Wikipedia, the Goal of the Century was scored by Maradonna in the 1986 FIFA World Cup. The Goal of the Century, also known as "Greatest Goal in FIFA World Cup History", was an award given for the greatest goal ever scored in a FIFA World Cup finals. It was decided by a poll on the FIFA website, as part of the coverage of the 2002 FIFA World Cup tournament. The winning goal was the second goal by Diego Maradona in the 1986 FIFA World Cup quarter-final match, for Argentina against England on June 22, 1986, at the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City; it came shortly after Maradona's infamous Hand of God goal. Nine minutes into the second half, Héctor Enrique passed the ball to Maradona some ten metres inside his own half. Maradona then began his 60 metre, 10 second dash towards the English goal, leaving behind five English outfield players (Beardsley, Reid, Butcher and Fenwick) as well as goalkeeper Peter Shilton to make the score 2-0 to Argentina. Gary Lineker scored a goal for England 25 minutes later, but England was unable to equalize and Argentina won 2-1. About the goal, Maradona said, "I made the play to give it to Valdano, but when I got to the area they surrounded me and I had no space. Therefore, I had to continue the play and finish it myself." A statue of Maradona immortalizing the moment has been erected outside the stadium. Recently, Maradona said he could not have scored such a beautiful goal if it had not been against the honest English team, who did not knock him down as most defenses used to do. "They are probably the noblest in the world," he added. On the goal, English striker Gary Lineker said "[it was] probably the one and only time in my whole career I felt like applauding the opposition scoring a goal." Lineker scored the only English goal of that match.

Does anyone know what injury he has?

I'm chuffed as well but you underestimated a little.

I don't know where and when Dylan used it but appropriately Mamma Cass sang the words in Dedicated to the One I Love

I was sitting next to some Geelong fans and I was quite jealous of the way they were carrying on every time Tomahawk came near the ball. I haven't seen that much of Michael Newton but he is 193 cm and is supposed to be an up and comer. I would have been happy for him to get a run this week rather than recycling some of the old faces that go up and down from Melbourne to Sandringham like a yo yo. Our selectors don't have the cahunas to do what Collingwood did at the weekend or Geelong the week before.

Apparently strained a groin. Will we have enough players to make a team by round 6?

This type of thread comes up from time to time when the club has a disappointing loss but I ask Little Lucifer what do you expect? If the supporters lacked passion to the extent that all they did after such a loss was clap the team off the ground with a "well done boys" then we would really be in trouble. We lost and some of the posters are expressing their feelings. That is exactly what I understand this sort of a forum was all about. I don't like some of the nasty sniping that happens on this and all supporter sites but I can assure you that we are far from the worst. All I can say is heaven help us if the coach and players were all beyond criticism.

The rain should help us if the opposition is underdone. They might even choose to leave out one or two as a precaution given the conditions. We have the hard bodies for such conditions too!

What's the matter dd36, the 5 time premiership player keeping your mate out of the team or something?

Ah, the excitement is reaching fever pitch and, as I look outside my window and see dark clouds, I'm feeling pretty good about the start of the season. Rain, wet weather, winter and footy. It's baaaaaaaaaaaaack!

Great stuff Brey and thanks for sms'ing George throughout the day. We were definitely kept up to speed and now your summary makes me feel as if I was there.

According to the AFL site we were undermanned but a few days ago were supposed to be near to full strength. What's going on and does it matter? PS: According to papers it was Mooney, Mooney ...

Stevens goals. 94 to 37

Er, yes. Apparently we've been doing a fair bit of the run and carry stuff and it hasn't come off all that often.

Sydney beat Richmond by about 3 goals in the Nab Challenge Cup earlier today. Crows game apparently starts 3.30pm their time which makes it 4pm our time. What gets me though is why can't they broadcast their match previews, summaries during intervals and at at the end of the game? They are truly pathetic!

As far as I'm concerned they can do what they want with their coverage as long as we get some flashes of vision like THIS, and THIS

So did anyone go?

Just when you thought the troubles were over at the Enron Football Club and the billionaire saviour started throwing his money all around the place, the newly appointed skipped gets involved in a family feud. MY NAME IS LANCE is a poignant story about two brothers, their families and a turkey named Carlton. My name is Lance by Michael "Squints" Polydoros 2 March, 2007 Lance Whitnall appeared in court yesterday to apply for an intervention order against his brother, Shane. The order was eventually granted by Judge Roy Bean, who commented that in all his years he had never come across a case quite like this one. The unusual nature of the intervention order itself makes this a unique case. "As far as I know, this is the first intervention order that will only be in force during meal times. The boys are happy to see each other the rest of the time but they are adamant that they will never share a meal again," said the bemused judge. Shane's wife Tammy continues the tale. "It all began on Christmas Day at Shane and mine's house in Reservoir," added the diminutive bottle blonde. "Shane had spent months looking for the biggest turkey ever and finally came home with a 48 kg bird. He was so proud. After we had cooked it and Shane took it off the barbie, Lance just went nuts. He grabbed the whole thing, sat it on his lap on my son Exavier's TV Stable Table and started hoeing in. How rude! No way would Shane put up with that so he wrestled both Lance and the turkey to the ground." "We were all terrified," continued Lance's peroxided wife, Rhiannon. "They wrestled and ate, and wrestled and ate. No one could separate them until all that was left was clean-picked bones. We had to all go down to Macca's for a happy meal." It has been reported that the boys then made up but the truce was short-lived. A couple of days later, on a family trip to the zoo, they were at it again. "They were OK," said the boys father, Graeme, "Until it was feeding time for the lions. The sight of two hungry lions fighting over a side of antelope was too much for them and they were at it hammer and tongs. It was just like when they were teenagers again." The most puzzling aspect of this case, according to Judge Bean, was Tammy's threat to burn down the house of her sister-in-law Rhiannon's, parents. "No way did I threaten to do that. All I did was threaten to burn their Fleetwood Mac collection. I'm sick of that b!tch holding that one over me!"

Sad. We had to pay for that!
