No problem - I'm out of here. Didn't realise I'd stumbled into the HTB forum.

I might be misunderstanding your post, but could you please point me to the AFL rules of the time that stated that Geelong could take F/S picks in the 3rd round, yet other clubs had to use the 1st round?

With or without Anzac Day? That's where all the problems started with the fixture IMO. Scrap the blockbusters and bring back an even draw and I'll be happy. What is an even draw? It's a difficult one, but a rolling draw I think is the fairest way to go - either that or go to a 17 round...

North supporters may or may not overrate their players, but if I want some info on a player from North, I think asking their supporters is a good start given that they watch them week in, week out and sometimes I don't get that luxury. It is obviously biased, but so is anything I say about...

Thanks Tas - appreciate the time you spent answering my query. I hope he turns into the champion you guys are hoping for. Best of luck for the upcoming season to the Kangas.

Does he really excite you that much? I just can't see it tbh. I hope for North supporters that he turns out to be a champion for you guys, but he just seems like a decent footballer to me with some potential. I'll watch him a bit more closely in future and see if I can work out what all the...

I think it will be longer than 6 or so years unfortunately. I sincerely hope not, but with all those first round draft picks they are set for at least a decade IMO. Even when they need to trade some of them, they will get great currency in return as the player is a first rounder after all. It...

We were a game off top-4 with a ridiculously tough draw. We will be thereabouts again. I don't even think we played particularly well in many games this year, yet managed to finish a game from the top 4. Hit our straps and anything can happen. I wouldn't have said Sydney were premiership...

Will struggle to make 100.

Why the **** did I stay up for this.

Congratulations Tommy. Fantastic result for the big fella. As someone appropriately said on the live chat - Get around him..........

The difference between Franklin and Hawkins was that they both had the chance to win the GF for their teams - one did and one didn't. Franklin is obviously a great player, but his kicking really lets him and his side down. Those out on the fulls must be so demoralising for his teammates and at...

Biased also, but what about Varcoe's from last year? Was not as close in the end as the other matches but just a brilliant goal which pretty much ended Collingwood's chances. One of the greatest goals I've seen in a grand final.

How good is this football club. A privilege to be a part of it as a supporter.

Wow - just Wow Nicholls.

Just goes to show the home town influence on the umpires is alive and very very well. Crows getting shafted big time.

IMO, we'd be going backwards if we went after Moloney. Nice bloke sure, but not good enough for the hoops. IIRC, he led the league in clangers for a few seasons there and I don't think his disposal has improved much at all. Gets it and bombs it long is his MO - we need classy ball users, not...

Such a tragedy. Really feel for his family and friends at this point in time. RIP - taken way too young.

Happy with our year, but a pretty disappointing end. Congrats to Freo - wanted it way more than we did. Been amazed that our players have kept the hunger up for so long - was gonna say it's starting to wane, but I'm not sure it is tbh, just not enough intensity at the start of the game - We'll...

They've gone home now. Been a good year - disappointing end.

Time to move Lonners?????

Worst performance in a decade. Totally outplayed and totally out-coached.

Freo way more committed than us at this stage. Not looking good.

A big 5 perhaps? Not much between the Cats, Eagles, Dons, and Hawks on those figures.

Geelong players appeal for free kicks, Hawthorn players appeal for free kicks, West Coast players appeal for free kicks, Sydney players appeal for free kicks.......... Let's single Geelong out because....well I hate them as is my right as a Hawthorn supporter. That's the thread right there.

I have so much sympathy for the strugglers down at Moorabbin. Fancy having to end an argument with "and we almost got over the line anyway". So close really is a win for the Saints.

Fair enough Tas - as I said, I may have misread or misunderstood your post. I doubt though that Chris Scott would have been doing that to be honest - he strikes me as being a bloke who wears his heart on his sleeve and also a bloke who hasn't quite got his emotions in check after a loss as yet...

Why would he want to deflect? Yeah we lost, so what. West Coast are a very good team and at their home ground are always tough to beat. Can't really see the need to deflect our loss. It happens - some teams win, some teams lose. We lost - pretty simple stuff really. They beat us fair and...

I thought this was the case also until I called vline last week to find out the train times to the G on Friday night (I usually drive up). They have a train that runs direct to Richmond from Geelong, so it's actually not that hard for us Cats fans that live in or near Geelong. I think the...
