    Brett Kirk to announce retirement

    On the negative aspect, do agree with the comment that he didn't handle Davis and probably Hall very well. But, on the positive side, I can't recall who said it, but somebody recently (Matthew Lloyd??) said that he was the best kick in the comp for efficiency because he knew his limitations...

    Mumford coming to Sydney

    So is the deal(s) done? Or what? Get yer freakin' acts together gentlemen and ladies. NOTE: it's of little consequence rating seaby vs mummy (oh how i love a bloke with a nickname 'mummy') vs jolly. This is all relative only to their value on the trade table, the strength of each club's...

    Fev to lions, Bradshaw + Rischa to blues

    Re: Fev for Bradshaw and Rischitelli? Hmmmm. You'd think that any "off field infringements" by Fev'd be met with five hours in the bar with JB followed by five rounds in the ring - bare knuckled. No helmet.

    Fevola Trade Thread (Part 2)

    Collingwood over-rate their list. Every year, they nearly get to the top (GF's in 2002, 03; prelims in 07, 09; finals 04, 06) & and every year it's said that Malthouse "does a great job with what he has" and "gets the absolute utmost from his list". Same comments. I agree with that, btw. BUT...

    Thanks BSA. Succinct and simple to understand. I prefer to use a dozen words more though than you do.

    Fevola Trade Thread (Part 2)

    It's not that. 1:1 I'd say that a 80 or so per season goal kicker is a far more valuable get than a very good ruckman (not great, but certainly very good) who can go forward and also kick a few majors. However, in this trade period, the goal kicker has baggage, is very expensive, and is...

    Fevola Trade Thread (Part 2)

    absolutely. We picked up Jolly at 2004 draft for pick 15. Now he's a ruckman in the prime of his career hence the hold-out. Don't blame Roos who's said all along that he's now a better player than then (certainly true) so rates a better deal than then. Arguable whether he was worth 15 at the...

    Re: Swans offer Fev four years hey mate. i'm absolutely factual however in my comment: so far it IS just one source, and SEN have been the least reliable. but yes, i'm hoping like mad we don't get him. mainly due to some outrageous promises i've made to my mates! and i'm thinking that...

    Re: Swans offer Fev four years Sports Sentral is SEN. So we've still only got one source to date. And possibly the least reliable.

    Pies/Swans/Blues 3 way for Fev and Jolley

    don't want him, or we shouldn't be paying too much. I seriously don't get it. this year, we lost hall, magic, barry, jolly and crouch (and to a lesser extent fosdike and kennelly). in the next two years i suspect we'll lose kirk, goodes and either or both boltons - maybe o'keefe too. So...

    Richo Membership - serious marketing idea for the Tigers

    I've got an income earner for the Tiges: how bout Richmond setting up a special "Richo Membership" pack next year? The target market would be for non-Richmond members (as well as Richmond supporters: members and non-members) who appreciate his on-field ...(er)... eccentricities. For a...

    Bryce McGain lookalike. hugh Grant surely!

    Harsh. Following Warne and the GWH Cam White as a leggie means you don't get a lot of ops. Has been around a long time, captains his club, has improved his batting and has a few raps from Jenner et al.
