if the cows ever have an original idea it would be funny

They have lots of funny ideas which are original..

 

[mic59]

They have: the fake Crow sound after every goal.

You know what would be funnier? If they used the Graham Kennedy crow sound.

Without breaks we forget to appreciate the game

And with the longer break because of the cricket World Cup, we'll appreciate it even more in 2015!!!!! It's gonna feel weird having the preliminary final on the last Saturday in September.

Paige Cardona's just taking the piss here

Phantom Draft 5.0
Pick 71: Essendon – Ahmed Saad

Position: Forward
Height: 178 cm, Weight: 78 kg, DOB: 03/10/1989
Club: St Kilda
Projected draft range: late – rookie

The former St Kilda small forward who is currently serving an 18-month ban due to an ASADA doping violation, Ahmed Saad undoubtedly has the talents to earn a second opportunity at AFL level, and is more than likely to find a home via the National Draft. He will nominate at this year’s draft, with Essendon the likeliest of five interested clubs to give him a reprieve. Saad looms as a future replacement for Paul Chapman, filling a direct need for a consistent small forward at the club. He won’t be able to train with a club until January 1st, 2015.

It makes sense: SAAD has the letters of ASADA in his name

 

[Ford Fairlane]

If Essendon draft Saad they may as well call themselves US Postal Bombers

Chant night

Stephen (as Phil Walsh calls him) Rowe was there! And not just as a reporter.

No, the US postal service recruit serial killers, not druggies.

A. Saad = ASADA (perfect anagram)

Mind blown.

I'll see your Lance Armstrong and I'll raise you a David Berkowitz, Robert Shulman, Patrick Sherrill, Joseph M. Harris, Thomas McIlvane, Lawrence Jasion, Mark Hibun, Jennifer San Marco and Grant Gallaher.

Or Dangerfield becomes a team first player......

Have you been drug tested lately, I think some one has spiked your food with hallucogens.

I'm very forgiving as a person, and a good judge of personality's. I fear for Walshey, he could turn out to be a massive clown. Ive got a feeling he is on a hiding.

Will the Sub be scrapped before 2015? there seemed to be those musings in the media a month or so back but it's gone quiet, i really hope the AFL give it the ass.

I don't like it either but less rotation options for the majority of the game kind of favours the fittest teams, so...

All the 19th man is saying is give Pete a chance

Add in the initial of his christian name and you have the full acronym

From rumours doing the rounds earlier this year, the sub would be scrapped and interchanges would be reduced. Some were hinting at 80 interchanges a game.

Apologies tribey, you just beat me to it (by about 9 hours )
