    Carlton vs Melbourne - Bets!

    Odds aren't necesary. It's for sigs. You find another poster willing to take the opposite side of any bet, and the loser has to use a sig of the winners choosing for a predetermined length of time. If user fails to change their signature or removes the signature early they will be added to...

    I'll have big K. Too easy.

    Carlton vs Melbourne - Bets!

    You'll need to find somebody on the opposite side to place a sig on it. To entice somebody, I suppose you could offer a percentage discount, change it to contested possesions, etc

    You have Carlton AND Melbourne on offer and the best you can come up with is an aboriginal bloke who smokes? Come on, that's too easy, you can do better!

    Carlton vs Melbourne - Bets!

    Anybody keen? As always, bets are for sigs for the rest of the season and Black Flag is NOT welcome. I think the following options are pretty fair, but feel free to offer anything else up. Jack Watts vs Setanta O'alphin - total score kicked Brad Miller vs Jarad Waite - total score...

    10 Reasons why Setanta is better than Buddy

    How can you guys can call yourself football fans but insult Irish is beyond me.. He belted a Cloke then proceed to kick him while he was down whilst reminding him that not only is he the best player in his family, but he is better than any of the cloke brothers with more than 15 years less...

    Who is the better footballer - Jack Watts or Lachie Henderson?

    In all fairness Jacqui's standing in Bay 13 guarantees a win in any and all polls regardless of topic. I don't think Henderson is ready to shoulder that responsibility.

    Selected team vs hawthorn

    Hadley will be brilliant for this match. The off ball work by him and Johnson is amazing and is just what we need across half back with Judd playing the way he is. Hopefully we will see upwards of 90% game time from both rucks to stretch the Hawks defence and to run renouf off his legs.

    Ins and outs!

    B: Joseph Jamison Russell HB: Gibbs Henderson Thornton C: Scotland Hadley Simpson HF: Robinson O'Hailpin Murphy F: Betts Kruezer Garlett R: Jacobs Carrazzo Judd IC: Yarran, Austin, Johnson, Warnock/Browne Carrazzo/Gibbs to run with Hodge. I'd take the risk of playing Henderson on Franklin and...

    The Ruck Debate is Over

    It's never a choice to use your backup ruckman. The very definition implies it's not preferable. I'm just pointing out that we can trade 1 or possibly even 2 of our top 4 rucks at the end of this season and still not destroy our team balance if we lose some to injury next year. Besides...

    The Ruck Debate is Over

    Don't forget about Setanta as a viable backup. Kruezer won't be getting traded, which means any one of Jacobs, Hampson or (however unlikely) Warnock could be traded and still leave us with 2 useful backups without screwing our structures completely. I doubt one of our rucks will end up at...

    Rumour Bryce Gibbs & the Gold Coast

    Except that, you know, Jacobs can actually hit the ball to advtange and Hampson wins more hitouts and (IMO)provides more of a contest around the ground. In my mind Jacobs & Hampson (based on his form last year) are ahead of Warnock by a mile.

    Is there a spot in the forward line for Henderson ?

    Eventually there will be. What I'm wondering is should we get AFL games into him playing out of the backline when Bower is out, or leave him in the VFL to spend more time up forward?

    NBA AFL Team

    Take Dwyane Wade for example. 193cm and 100kg, so essentially Fevola. He has a vertical leap of about 87cm, a 6"11 wingspan and can bench press 138kg for 3 reps or 185lbs for 25 reps. He can do a 3/4 court in approx 3.10 seconds. I think thats about 23 metres? The average NBA player...

    Positives from tonights match??

    How many good players do Carlton, Essendon, Fremantle, North Melbourne and West Coast have? I'd say in 2009 they were being carried by 5-6 players.

    Who matches up on Black

    Anderson out, Hadley in. Carrots to HBF, Murph starts at HFF. Let McLean go with Black, Gibbs with Power. It's unlikely we can tag Black out of the game, so we need to keep our own quality mids in there as much as possible. I'd be looking at Robinson with Rich, though if he gives away any...

    Let's talk about the Richmond ruck division... seriously.

    He doesn't need to set the world on fire, he needs to be competitive. He has done exactly that against every ruck in the AFL. Simmonds got comprehensively beaten by a kid and a cripple and that is something to worry about. To come in and play as a quality tall at a young age you need to...

    Positives from tonights match??

    Lids' needs to pick his game up. He is constantly spouted by the richmond faithful as an elite midfielder, but he can't produce consistently on the night. Even the most one eyed Richmond supporter can see he goes missing far too often. Once you can get him, Cotchin and Tambling playing...

    Positives from tonights match??

    IMO, the kids did well. Just a patchy performance by the Tigers. Lack of a quality ruck division cost you a few too many opportunities tonight and prevented your midfield from keeping you in the game. I think you'll get it right for the last 8 rounds and come home really strong.

    Pay now, play later.. from the HUN

    Good to see, especially if they offer early extensions to the keepers. I'd be throwing 4-6 year contract extensions a few certain players and paying them every cent you can now, could easily save enough money by the time your list peaks to top up with premade talent for a good strong push over...

    Fisher and Jacobs

    Because nobody ever acts different around the media, right? And the opinion of somebody in the media represents the opinions of every man and woman on the face of the earth too! And he has spoken to me, multiple times, which is where I got the impression that he is an arrogant piece of s**t...

    Who have I personally insulted without knowing anything about them? Oh, so you like every person you've ever met? Gee, I wish I could be as perfect as you! Since when do you need evidence to prove an opinion? I've met the kid a few times and I think he is an arrogant piece of s**t who...

    Fisher and Jacobs

    I'm fairly certain I've made more derogatory comments about Yarran than that. That's because I believe he will be a s**t player and I whole-heartedly believe he is a terrible person. Good analogy. If he wants to talk football while taking jabs like that, of course I'll cop it on the chin...

    Fisher and Jacobs

    I'm not expecting all of those players to be on our list in 2 years time. But, why draft Kerr and Davies if we don't have a use for them in the near future? He could break down. Having 10 small players on the bench leaves us with plenty of replacements. Stevens is a loss. We lost 1...

    Fisher and Jacobs

    That point is moot if they aren't selected in the 22, which is what I'm getting at. We have a full midfield rotation plus plenty of depth players, so why do we continue to recruit midfielders. We can only select 22 players on the day, and lets say we take the following "talls", which isn't a...

    Why bother going for midfielders that won't get the time?

    Fisher and Jacobs

    Which is why the "best available talent" policy doesn't work. We've got so many of the same types of players which we are going to have to leave languishing in the Ants. I mean, fair enough you want depth, but forget the past 2 drafts and we can already fill the midfield, pockets and flanks...
