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...

Yeah, yeah, whilst I reckon he is a terrific, selfless human being with an eccentric streak; as a footballer, he is inspirational. Can understand the three captain policy, but if we had just one, I'd want him. Every time. Swans Jumper Preso While a little bit of that (edited) speech is...

...do we need one? If an ex-player is ready to play at a later age and willing to be paid the rookie salary, why have an age limit? Good article by Jake Niall in The Age making the case for removing the age restriction. Sorry I can't find the url, but he does include a great line, saying...

He's SOOOOOOO gorgeous.....*swoon*

Will all three champions of our game resign their captaincy next year? And who would replace them? Bris - Brown, Black Ess - Lloyd, J. Johnson, McPhee Coll - Clement Despite all the argy-bargy, we have been privileged to see these blokes play.

Playing at the Hi-Fi. Gotta love these melodic Scottish funsters. Their visits here have been all too rare - a BDO plus a couple of gigs at the POW in St. Kilda is all I can recall. Anybody going? Or at least fans?

Now I don't generally bag newbies; never have in fact. But, seriously, count the number of new Eagles posters on these boards over the last six weeks - ie, the ones with posts < 1000. And, with originality counting for everything, most of them have 'Eagles' somewhere in their nick. I...

Melb v Syd tomorrow night: Syd - CHB Lewis Roberts-Thompson vs Melb - CHF Ben Holland. Harks back to the gladiatorial battles of Peter Knights vs Paul Van Der Haar, SOS v Plugger and Jakovich v Carey. Skills will abound. The mind boggles. The mouth slavers. The fingernails will cop a...

Does anybody have a musical shame file? I own about 6/700 CD's, and there's really only a few that make me wince: 1927's: 'ish'. God forgive me. My mates won't. Aztec Camera (can't remember the name). Pap. Catherine Wheel - I spent about $40 (years ago) on this special album plus...

Always wondered whether putting the word 'official' in the title makes it more important. I can now stop wondering. It doesn't. (PS - Go Bloods!)

Got in before bee dee.... ------ AFL Breaking News - 2006 Draw Monday, 20 June 2005 In what has developed in the last few days, it has been appeared that 15 club Presidents have made requests to the AFL for their team to play Richmond in June. The AFL today through Operations Manager...

Go the Willo!! Has been great for the club. A key for us. No doubt Brodie will try and kinghit him again to reduce his effectiveness. http://sydneyswans.com.au/default.asp?pg=news&spg=display&articleid=210837 (And I was very careful with my hyphen.)

Heard on the news last night that he has '....the full support of the Board'. He's history. As Bernard Woolley said in Yes Minister, "You can't stab anyone in the back unless you're right behind him". I think there's something in that for all of us.

The Benny v Buckley show. Herbie v Hammy. 4 > 5. Circles v circuit class. Respected player v Reserves player. Leader v Loser. Boring in for the ball v Boring as hell on the box. Geez I wish I had the software/web server to cut out and enlarge Benny's grinning face next to that...

Not announced yet, but will be apparently today. But for those who care (both of you), here's an interesting article about the succession. Thanks Liz on RWO for pointing out the article. Richard Hinds is pretty much spot on I reckon.... It's time to beam him up ....except for where he...

Several questions: a) How was Eddie's speech? b) How was the atmosphere early on? c) How are the facilities? and, just so I's not pumping up your tyres: d) How were the seven goals in the last q? Must admit the stand looked great fully populated. Dunno about the big overshading though.

Ch 7 & 10 have proposed a conglomerate for the next rights to televise the AFL, due as at commencement of the 2007 season. The exact figure is yet to be provided. This 'conglomerate' is a surprise given the current one which comprises 9, 10 and Foxtel. Some see the new proposal as a good thing...

Seeing as the AFL does a "Heritage Round", I was wondering what your thoughts would be as to whether the most appropriate BF Punters Traditional Rivals would be. My first thoughts are: St. Kilda v Carlton (well, THAT one is obvious....) Coll'd v Bris (Salary Cap, 2002/03, a few hardcore...

Now that Ch 7 have put us out of our misery, if we had to revisit the commentators, ideally who would you have on the chair and couch? Host: Brooth. OTC: From: Blighty, Schwatta, Parko, (Lethal, if he wasn't coaching) Special Guest (current players, coaches): Voss, Roos, Rocket, Bell.

Of my four best mates, one is a Dog fan, two are Hawks and one is a Saint. I have been granted the leave pass on Sat and I am absolutely pumped - two games of footer, meeting at the Great Western for some abuse, lagers, and a punt, talking footy (and nothing else). No tsunami, no cricket, no...

Is this called pessimism or reality? Does anybody think they're team will either drop down the ladder or perform worse this year than 2004? I hesitate to say that the Swans will do worse, but it wouldn't surprise me. And of course Geelong fans need not respond for of course you're...

I believe that the AFL are changing the F/S rule to allow teams to select draftees whose fathers only SUPPORTED a club rather than PLAYED for it? If so, it would mean that my son, born on Tuesday, would be an automatic third round selection for the Swans in eighteen years time. Weighing in at a...

There has been some ridicule displayed re possible upcoming premiership teams - Coll & WCE for starters - the abuse of which I drunkenly joined in last night. I have however given this issue some thought, and I'd now like to provide the definitive Premiership team for season 2005. After...

Given that we've complained about who's better than who so often, I thought I'd first get an idea about which poll was everybody's favourite, then we can go from there. Above are a few suggestions, but I know there are heaps more.... What's your favourite?

What commentators have their special favourites? For example: McAvaney: Carey ("The KING!!") Walls: Voss (or Mal Michael's thighs) McKenna: Paul Kelly ("Oh they love him up here") Garry Lyon: Eddie McGuire ...you get the idea. Any others? Sure, it's childish, pointless and dumb...

On SEN he just hasn't been happy since he got back from Ireland. It'll be much more pleasant listening to the radio when he's off. As an aside, does anybody know why he is leaving? And who's replacing him? I heard a whisper Andrew Maher.

Well, we hated them both with a passion. Who did we hate less?

Is there a link between Mr Journalist's frequent - however now conspicuously vanished - pleas over the last few days to join the footyfanatic site (whatever it's called), together with the 'Save Ferris' calls, and the fact that there have been no server issues at all today? Hmmmm? Up...

This'll no doubt ********** some people off....but no doubt will make Total Package very happy indeed. -------------------------- Hodge wrong choice: Schwab By Dan Oakes November 1, 2004 Former Hawthorn coach Peter Schwab has admitted for the first time the club had erred in...
