Oppo Camp 2014 non-Geelong AFL match and general discussion

[Teriyakicat]

It'd be an interesting exercise to find out which players changed clubs prior to 2005- obviously there were problems with players other than just Cousins. Mainwaring springs to mind (though he played a few years earlier), Daniel Chick, Michael Gardiner.... It was a pretty long list!

Just on a totally different topic- I read this yesterday in our WA paper
http://au.news.yahoo.com/thewest/wa/a/22213488/worsfold-lifts-lid-on-eagles-drug-scandal/

There's a follow up interview in today's West Australian, which i haven't yet bought. If anyone's interested, I can try and scan and post the full article when I get back from the shops later.

Well isn't he just the Messiah! I've never liked WCE or Worsfold !!! Still sulking over the 90's

Yes, he admitted it was a long list + difficult team rebuild to change the culture!

That will be awesome.
Every time I've been in Adelaide I'd stare across at the oval and think "why the hell can't they play footy there"?

A lot more people will now fly to Adelaide to watch games due to ease of access. Stay across from the casino and just walk across the river for the game.

Only heard the start. What else did he say, VC?

 

[vinum coupe]

It's on the SEN site.
I just like the way he's so open and humorous.

Just spoke about how he didn't think the Saints were using McEnvoy correctly, and how they've looked at Geelongs model and Sydneys for developing players etc.

Also spoke about coach accreditation.

You'll have to tell us all about the new venue once you've been there to watch the cats. An 'old vs new' report would be interesting

Lovely + generous article about the Trent West + tomorrow's game -

From memory, wasn't he asked if he'd used Geelong's model + corrected interviewer by saying they'd looked at Sydney's + other teams' strategies? Or am I confusing him with Lyons? ???

Dunno- but West is a class act. He's always been quietly courteous when being interviewed and never says anything bad about anyone. Seems like a good young lad.

I had my photo taken with him after the Richmond game in 2012 + said he smelled divine! He was so adorable, gave me a little squeeze + said "I should!!! I just had a shower!" LOL

 

[thejester]

This is a sensational game to watch at Docklands.

 

[dazbroncos]

King gave cyril 3 votes.... FFS...

He barely hit a target all night

One w***er deserves another….

Go Catters

How's Josh going in his milestone game?

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Fair to say, josh is having a shocker

Think today's game might be the best illustration of the gap between the reputation Josh's kicking enjoys and the reality.

Just checked the stats on the AFL website, and he's running at 33% disposal efficiency. That's worse than Cyril last night!

 

[Zouz Kitty]

You guys are harsh! NSFB closest to the truth Whereas his team mate Devon Smith has four goals, Giles has three goals + former Cats' TM, Mumford - one goal

Nick Riewoldt still running a marathon and being everywhere whilst losing. I almost feel sorry for him playing for St Kilda, you can only play so many positions at once.
