    Seven commentators, thats right 7 commentators calling 1 game.... WTF?

    If youre tuning into the Geelong/North game like I am you might find it a bit hard to remember who is calling the game, because Channel 7 have decided that no less than seven commentators are required for the match. Macavaney, Commetti, Harley, Carey, Watson, Richardson, and Mathews. Watson and...

    Opinion Heritier O'Lumumba - yay or nay?

    I think this deserves its own thread separate from the megatrade thread of 1000 topics. Anyway, From WA, played for Claremont before being drafted 27 year old attacking half back flanker. Obviously has a few issues but do they outweigh his talent? Should we approach Collingwood?

    Season 2014 positives and negatives.

    Positives: McGovern Yeo Lycett Bennell Negatives: dont deserve to make the 8 when you cant beat a top 8 side. Mcginnity, Priddis and Selwood keep getting picked when their turnovers outweight anything good they do finishing in the worst position on the ladder.

    Derby Final 2014 possibility - not anymore!

    Its remote, but there is a chance that we could be facing the Dockers in an Elimination final according to the ladder predictor. With all results going the way they should, the Derby Final scenario requires the following two upsets to happen: Eagles beat Essendon next week at Etihad. Port...

    When does Bomber Thompson come under scrutiny?

    It seems as though the media is giving Bomber Thompson a free ride in 2014, because he is supposedly just a caretaker coach until the return of James Hird. But the fact is that Thompson is in charge of a team that finished 7th last year despite all the drama with the ASADA plaguing their whole...

    Round 19 Fantasy trades

    OUT: Gunston, Suckling IN: Gray, Dal Santo
  7. Blue and Gold Blood

    No Gazza, no Gold Coast?

    Last couple of weeks it begs the question. Lost to bulldogs by 5 goals last week and this week they are going to lose by 10 goals against Brisbane. Disappointing losses against bottom 4 teams without Ablett. Reckon they are a 1 man team?

    Play on from out of bounds - Chris Mayne goal?

    Just watching the Dockers/Brisbane game and Mayne took in the pocket on the boundary line. Rather than the drop punt, he shapes up for a right-footed snap in his run up. Mayne came off his line, was still outside the boundary line, the umpire calls play-on, but Mayne is still allowed to kick the...

    Round 13 trades (Fantasy)

    Im sure im not the only one eager to make some rage trades this weekend. Just wish we could make 3 instead of 2. OUT: Watson, Cox IN: Pendlebury, Jacobs

    McGovern has to stay in the side for the rest of the year

    Drop Darling if we have to bring back Kennedy. But this kid is the only one who looks like taking a mark inside forward 50m, and solving our forward line problems. He has leapfrogged Sinclair and Lycett as our 3rd tall for me.

    Round 11 trades (Fantasy)

    Well thank god the byes are over and i can get back to the usual downgrade cash cow upgrade to premo routine. My two trades for round 11: Griffiths --> Simpson Lloyd --> Parker

    Umpires robbed us - no doubt about it.

    Im not going hang s**t on any of our players. We were robbed so bad its demoralising. Not just one or two iffy freekicks, but half a dozen or more momentum killing decisions that you just cant compete against. Im proud of the way we played today. Those fcken umpires should be murdered

    Roast The "Collingwood at the MCG" hoodoo - 27 years of misery for Eagles fans

    If you thought the Eagles record vs Collingwood at the MCG was bad, you were wrong - its absolutely pathetic. We have 1 win against the Pies in 28 years of our history. A lot people including myself have considered Port Adelaide to be our bogey team and to a lesser extent I think they are. But...

    Essendon supporters cheering the umpire getting knocked out

    Central umpire just went down with an injury in the middle of the ground and lied there motionless. Bombers fans thought it was a right old laugh and cheered at the sight of the umpire lying still on the ground. Eventually a stretcher was called for which was again met with cheers. Disgraceful

    Preview Changes - Round 5 vs Port Adelaide

    OUT: Naitanui (inj and out of form) Butler (old and past it) Hill (cant kick a set shot goal) Scott Selwood (cant kick, period) Mcginnity IN: Hutchings Glass Masten Carter Rosa Dont care if this is seen as a throwing the baby out with the bath water post. Too many disgraceful players tonight

    Buckley vs Hird vs Voss - as coaches....

    Well we saw this debate a fair few times as players, but in 5 years from now who is going to be remembered as the better coach? Hird used PED's in a desperate bid to take his side to the top but failed. Voss tried to top up an aging list and buy a premiership with trades but failed. Buckley...

    2014 - is this the year Geelong finally falls?

    I know this is an old question cats fans are getting tired of, and the fact both they and Sydney have managed to stay up for so long goes against the notion of the premiership window. The cats have been up since 2007 - a truly remarkable feat, but i think this year in particular a few things...

    Eagles are focusing on improving skills for 2014 season.

    "WEST Coast is focused on better ball use and ball movement in 2014 under new coach Adam Simpson, midfield coach Brady Rawlings says. The Eagles finished second last in the AFL in effective disposal efficiency in 2013, despite having been number one in hit-outs and fifth in clearances per game...

    The round 9 experiment. Result: completed team with 2 trades per week

    Well if theres ever been an example that 2 trades every week is too much for dream team, then this is it. Before the byes had started i knew my dream team was rooted in all ways, so i decided to create a 2nd team for keeping up my interest (and im aware that having 2 teams is a no no). So at...

    Postives and Negatives vs Essendon Round 20

    Positives: mastens disposal is elite Mckenzie, Glass, Schofield and even Brown played well in defense We have finally found our midfielder who has a great finish in front of goals - Wellingham. Lecras snagged 5 after looking like he was going to get subbed Dalziell creates so much run for us...

    Tim Watson knew Jobe was taking PED's.

    Just saw it then on Channel 7 in the half-time break between Sydney vs Carlton. Said that nothing Jobe said on Monday was news to him. Also congratulated Eagles fans on how loud the booing was. Said that fans have the right to boo and cheer when they like as much as they like. Spoke quite well...

    Review Positive and Negatives vs Hawthorn round 13

    Positives: Physicality: tackling was great, as was the desperation Gaff: tackled like his career depended on it. Bout time too. Kennedy: should be the one getting 1.5 million a year offered by GWS. Great game 4 quarter effort: first one for the year. Negatives: Butler: too slow and poor...

    Aaron Henneman FFC - currently 6th overall. http://dreamteam.afl.com.au/?p=other_teams&tid=457&lid=1 Im calling it early. Somehow this bloke has a team full of 22 premos already.

    Roast Scott Selwood - the clanger king.

    On Monday night vs the tigers S Selwood (who i refuse to call by his affectionate nickname "Scooter") had 6 clangers. They werent just blind kicks out of a pack for a rushed clearance either. His disposal is dreadful and always has been. And before all of his fans stick up for him by saying the...

    Opinion Paul Roos - yay or nay?

    Just wondering what everyones thoughts are on the Eagles trying to secure Roos as our coach for 2014? Should Worsfold step down, or get the sack at the end of the year, would people welcome Roos into the coaching box? There is the obvious negative that he creates bit of an ugly style of footy...

    Roast Skills... or lack there of.

    Skills are disgraceful. If there was a stat kept on fumbles, we would lead the league. Kicking and decision making are also woeful. Oh and congrats Scott Selwood youve officially replaced Dalziell as the worst kick in our team. All hail the turnover king :rolleyes:
