What's the go with the best and fairest presentation night? I've never been, and don't have a table full of equally obsessed friends to go with. can we just buy our tickets and get attached to a random table?

The question was asked at the fan forum on Wednesday night whether there would be support for live streaming of B&F night the response from the few that were there was close to raucous support so hopefully it gets done for this year.

That's a lot more affordable option.

Yeah, just nominate how many are attending and they'll bung you in wherever's best fit.

Just started watching the post game Fagan press interview on the lions website... first line was "I thought at 3/4 time we were in it with a chance" - I'm thinking yeah, of course we were!

Then he said "i thought we started slowly in the first quarter and were lucky to still be in the game at the first quarter break" - I'm thinking come on, after the first few mins we dominated, what are you smoking faggs!

It was the Richmond post game press interview

 

[Gadzorks]

From Fagan presser ( the v Carlton one) - Lester went to him early in the week 're his form in the past few games. Shows maturity.

Fagan praised him for his footy smarts (smartest o the club) and on field management so it seems that some of his qualities esteemed by the coaches are not ones we can see and rate.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know whether the Luke Weller that played a few games for the Lions in 03 a relation to the Weller's that are now playing for St Kilda and Fremantle respectively?

I don't believe so, largely off the basis that Luke was Brisbane based whereas the other Wellers are Tasmanian.

I have many a few people on this board - they are mostly not scary!

But I might be!!
Would happily join a table of bf posters (or posers??). Would be fun to go without knowing their bf name and try and figure out who they are. Not sure how it could be organised - maybe buy the tickets and specify the bf table and let the club put us together.

Just realised that in two weeks, the AFL has us scheduled to play the reigning premiers the week after an away match in Perth and with only a 6 day break.

IMO, the next two games are highly likely to kill any confidence/momentum that we've built in the past month. Pretty shit scheduling from the AFL. I'd nearly consider tanking the Eagles game just out of spite.

Whats with zorko getting a week for stomach tap? A fine. Yes. A week. WTF? Contact with face (dusty). Fine. Contact with the stomach. A week.

Your right Nathan Burke, brownlow has no influence at all.

Yes I do realise impact was graded different, however contact to the face should have a greater penalty imo.

Stomach punches should be stamped out. I can understand and support the idea, however the consistency between the grading of each stomach punch so far ( there has been quite a few)has been poor at best. To my knowledge this was zorko's first offense, therefore unless his punch to the stomach prevented his opponent from participating in the remainder of the match or unable to play the following week, the punishment should be a fine. If the MRP's grading is determined by the reaction to the stomach punch (which in this case I believe it is), then their system is flawed and easily manipulated. If a controlling umpire has determined the act as insufficient or negligible impact to warrant a free kick then surley it would only warrant a fine if they determined the umpire had made an error. Just an opinion

Tummy tap obviously considered way more serious than this eye gouge.
