Some might say this thread is surperfulous. If the mods agree no doubt it will go or be merged. I think it is important enough to stand alone. I would like to express my personal admiration for James Hird, in taking on as an individual the most significant personal and public penalty from this...

******* *s! Take it!

With all the talk of Rioli maybe lining up for Box Hill for the first time this week I wondered how many other players going around have never played at reserves level? For Essendon at the moment only Heppell comes to mind, though Zaharakis went close - jumping up after only one game an never...

You know what the best sign for me about the game against Adelaide was? That no one went overboard celebrating goals until Jobe gave them permission to by going bananas after kicking one with a min to go. Most of them must have known they had it wrapped up before then. Most of them would...

I did this all in a spreadsheet last season, but I dunno if I'm going to be that keen this time around so I'll put them in here instead. I worked $30 up to ~$110 last season and I'm starting with $97.55 from here (foolishly bet on the NAB cup). I'm betting with Betfair so my lowest bets are...

So this is a little bit of a different thread to the usual 'rate your draft' one, but one that I think is a pretty reasonable way of looking at how you did in picking players. The idea is to look at each of the picks you made, and then look at the next 10 picks afterwards, and see how the guy...

Is the new background what is slowing down the website so much all of a sudden? Become very painful to navigate.

Last year we ended round 23 with a percentage of 100% exactly. This year we have scored one extra point than had scored against is, ending with a percentage of 100.05. Oh yeah! (This thread may or may not be frivolous).

You would expect that North Melbourne and Fremantle will both win their last regular season game, putting them on 56 points with a percentage ~115 or more. However if Geelong fails to beat Sydney (who are playing for a home final) they will also be on 56 points and a similar percentage. If...

It's been a s**t second half of the year. Not only have we lost a lot of games we have lost some embarrassing ones, and in some embarrassing ways. Whatever. Let's ignore it for a few moments. Lets focus on some positives. 1. Gumbleton. He played some games, kicked a few goals, and (unless...

Unfortunatly Cooney will never reach the heights he once might have, his body won't let him. Having said that, will he be overtaken as the best player from his draft year? By who?

Dempsey, Winderlich, Gumby, Prismall, Myers, NLM, Carlisle, Reimers, McVeigh, Colyer, Hille. Just sayin'.

Have I missed a thread on this? Does it deserve its own thread? Oh well, here we are: Congratulations to these two on reaching that first little milestone for the club. May they have many more! :thumbsu:

Plagiarism at work! I'd be interested in hearing the thoughts of our users on how they expect the 2012 season to unfold. The season kicks off in a few days, so it's time to put your reputations on the line again! Here's mine: Premiers: Collingwood Runners Up: Hawthorn Bolter: Fremantle (into...

So this is something a little bit different. Wondering how indicative some of the stats we use really are, and just how much we might learn from them in isolation. I am wondering if, based on these stats, you can tell me where these players play on the park, and the style of their play. I know...

In 2011 a couple of players who have showed a bit in the ruck spent more time up forward, while some who used to play forward spent some more time in the ruck. Going in to 2012 who do you think is going to make their mark as a goal kicker ahead of the others? Jarryd Roughead - 7.5 HOs and...

The Past 2011 Performance 1st - Minor Premier, Losing Grand Finalist. The List 11/12 Changes of Note Losses: Leigh Brown, Leon Davis. Gains: Martin Clarke, Peter Yagmoor. Injuries Missing: Brent McCaffer, Andrew Krakouer Returning: Nathan Brown. The Fixture 2011: Geelong Twice, Essendon...

The NAB Cup lightning rounds in 2012 are played with only two players on the bench, with one team having had a significant rest and the other backing up straight away. This has emphasised the importance of fitness, and thus order of games has been more significant than the actual teams playing...

THE LID IS ON THE MOON - MY 2012 ESSENDON PREVIEW Let's break it down. THE FIXTURE In 2011 we played Carlton, Collingwood, West Coast, Sydney, Western Bulldogs and Richmond twice. In 2012 we play Carlton, Collingwood, Richmond, North Melbourne and Port Adelaide twice. In effect our fixture...

Gee I think Geelong is in for some trouble in a little bit. They've lost Ling, Milburne, Ottens, Mooney in 2011, and they're probably going to lose a few more at the end of 2012. They have 14 guys on their list with 100 or more games, but only two of them were born after 1984. That's a lot of...

I am having a look at the bye at the moment and it is doing my head in! At the moment I have a number of players down each round. Round 13: 3 zeros, with a full a ruck bench. (9 out) Round 12: 2 zeros, no bench. (10 out) Round 11: 3 zeros, no bench. (11 out) What is everyone else going to do...

Would you do this trade? Reason for this thread:

Ant has been consistent with his views on Stanton, it's not a surprise at all. He's also often been wrong on a number of our players, as he has admitted himself.

It's a topic we've discussed a bit, but I thought I'd throw out some numbers to support it. Here it is! Player Height/Weight compared to that of the reigning champions! Best 22s and there abouts. First height is the same of all others in that line. Hille 202cm 108kg Bellchambers 106kg...

Getting in nice and early. Fun task to do. Would like to see the follow play as close to 25 games as possible. B: Hibberd Fletcher Pears HB: Dempsey Hooker Heppell C: Zaharakis Watson Melksham HF: Monfries Ryder Crameri F: Winderlich Hurley Jetta R: Bellchambers Stanton Hocking INT...

Poor day today, but let's not forget the good season we've had. Congratulations boys, look forward to seeing you again next year.
