The footage of the moments straight after that incident is in one way funny but also very telling. There was one Essendon trainer absolutely furious with what happened, he's screaming at Dipper and then Dermie gets involved and to a lesser degree the rest of the Essendon trainers. I reckon the...

Wright will get 3-4 weeks and that's just the way it is in the current climate. It wasn't a dog act, he wasn't sniping, he got him high after bracing a split second before impact when realising Cunningham was coming across his path to the ball he was trying to mark. The carry on by Sydney, in...

TD did handball as the siren went. To Garry Foulds who booted it into the crowd.

I'm pretty sure Garry Foulds booted the ball into the crowd in both 84/85.

So you should have beaten us that night. There were 10 players in the team that night that didn't play in the 2000 flag. Only one of those 10 players, Berwick, wasn't at the club due to retirement. We were hit really hard by injury in 01, players in and out all season but that understandably...

Berwick and Foxes remain in SEJ. Beaconsfield got in because the senior and junior clubs are one, Berwicks senior and junior clubs are separate. On top of that if all 3 of the clubs looking to move got into SEJ at once then SEJ would be decimated, something liked a 3rd of the teams are from...

Essendon played them in 86 and won.

XI that I've seen Sehwag Cook V Richards Lara Tendulkar Border Imran Khan Healy Warne Ambrose McGrath All Time Sehwag Sutcliffe Bradman V Richards Tendulkar Sobers Imran Khan Healy Lillee Barnes Grimmett The all time team is certainly weighted towards stats as if you've never seen them play...

Due to the draw we didn't play for 3 weeks before the 2nd semi final. We were underdone and Collingwood managed to build momentum. We did win the 2 h&a games v Collingwood in 1990. Essendon were stiff, we were a clear favourite going into the finals but can't do much about bad luck. Extra time...

Tucks 39 finals is remarkable. All but his last season was a Top 5 and there would be at least 4 or 5 seasons where he only played 2 finals due to Hawthorn finishing on top, week off in the first week, win the 2nd Semi and straight through to the GF. Coventry also only played during an era of Top 4.

I was at all of those games and can say that bar Anzac Day Essendon had close to 50% if not more of the crowd as the away team. The home team on Anzac Day always has the higher percentage of the crowd but not by much. It's one game most away team supporters make an extra effort to attend.

Lucky for Richmond Sheedy wanted to give Richmond a leg up and involved them in the game. Could've easily been Carlton or Melbourne but decided to help out his own club using the red, black and yellow combo of colours as the reason. He also got the ball rolling for Anzac Day, why shouldn't we...

Which clubs would be up in arms? Couldn't be Brisbane, Carlton, Collingwood, Fremantle, Hawthorn, Melbourne, Richmond, St Kilda, Sydney, Western Bulldogs or West Coast. All those clubs have had priority picks in the first round, some of them in multiple seasons. North has never had that. Gold...

Dustin Fletcher is more worthy than everyone inducted tonight and his continued non induction is just ridiculous.

They're both great set ups but both surfaces will struggle to hold up. Berwick was a mess last season and is already starting to get chopped up. Beaconsfields surface is even worse and has a lot Sunday junior footy traffic on it as well.

That's the type of talk that gets spoken about them every time they come out then we go on to flog them. The bowlers drop their bundles pretty quick, the batsmen rarely tough it out and their standard of fielding is terrible. They rarely put up much of a fight and their record over here shows that.

Hosting the WI at that point of the summer impacts the BBL as the topline Australian players can take no part at all and for what? The Gabba crowds will be awful and the AO crowds will be as well. I wouldn't be surprised if there's a boycott of sorts there considering it's the second year in a...

My memory of it was Richmond were broke and pretty much couldn't recruit so KB was forced to play youngsters despite them not being ready for it. They sacked him and got Allan Jeans and they were even worse and he quit after a year. He had every right to be upset at the time but he probably...

I think Adams will certainly be suspended. Two Collingwood players were already tackling and he comes 3rd tackler in from 7-8 metres away and slings him to the ground. He had no reason to be involved let alone sling the St Kilda player the way he did.

Caminti will get weeks but there won't be any great sympathy for Murphy, concussion aside of course. He certainly started it, Caminti finished it. Any comparisons to Gaff are ridiculous.

Ridiculous. Murphy started it, the St Kilda player retaliated, maybe went overboard and Murphy sooked it up. There will probably be a week or 2 suspension but I doubt there's much sympathy for Murphy. Needs to pull his head in.

Khawaja rarely makes runs unless conditions are favourable or he's playing poor opposition. Really good at getting runs once a series is over too. Been a constant right through his career. Standby for a big score in the 3rd or 4th Test to shore up his spot once we're down 2-0.

I'm picking Gilchrist over Smith. Healy is the best keeper, that's why I picked him with the gloves ahead of Gilchrist.

We weren't an unstoppable juggernaut but we were the best team of the year. We had a slow start to the season, 1-1-3 after 5 rounds so to finish on top was a great effort from that position. Our last month or so was as good if not better than Geelongs until we met them at their home ground and...

Essendon had Geelongs measure in 93. The only reason they were 'unlucky' to miss the finals was because they got very lucky when we played them in r.21. Hird, Misiti and Fletcher that you mentioned missing the first final all got injured during the game against Geelong along with Wallis and...

Warner Taylor c Ponting Chappell Border Gilchrist Healy Johnson Warne Lillee McGrath The obvious difference to most is Healy as keeper. He is the best keeper of the last 50 years, therefore he should get that spot. Was decent with the bat averaging 27 and did it against some great bowling...

Brown was a bit of a media darling/beat up in the early to mid 90s. Was a decent player but the hype rarely matched the output. Did kick a bag of 5 v Essendon in the 2nd semi in 1990, probably his best or most important effort.

Iftikhar is taking the urine with his backing up. Needs to be taught a lesson.

He got 6 of his 7 once Essendon were 8 goals up. Junk time goals. Fletcher made a number of spoils on him early when the game was hot.
