    Opinion The scourge of the player claim thread

    Maybe time to revisit the magpie buddy sub-forum. Although I sense most of the claim threads would continue to see little action, which is much like how most of those in the buddy sub-forum ended up.

    Details about your first Bigfooty post....

    First post was about why Port's flags don't count and VFL ones do, which is kind of boring and a still repeated argument. My 4th footy one was posted in February 2007 and is rather humorous in hindsight. Parts of a thread about club mascots turned into a Carlton vs Collingwood slanging match...

    List Mgmt. Rookie Draft Monday 28 Nov @ 4pm (We can take up to 4 rookies)

    I'd go Tom Goodwin from Coburg if we wanted a youngish (25 years), but ready to go ruck. He's an old fashioned bash and crash type who gave Grundy a work out and got his measure early in the VFL year. Ended up winning Coburg's B&F this year. Has been linked to West Coast...

    Indoor Footy- Update Post

    Played a few games in '09 as part of this was good fun and I'd put my hand up to run around again if someone wants to organise it.

    Resource VFA/VFL Jumpers [image heavy thread]

    Video and stills of a blue Frankston jumper, don't know if it's in addition to the blue variation you have. Not sure if it's technically black collar/cuffs with a white outline like most things on the jumper or a white collar/cuffs with a black stripe through the centre, but the effect is a...

    Play Nice Sam Mitchell and Trent Cotchin retrospectively awarded 2012 Brownlow Medal

    I don't think votes should be retrospectively cast in place of Essendon players, however there is an argument for Essendon players being stripped of votes and others bumped up like olympic medalists. In saying that if a player polls 3 votes in a match and is later suspended for an act in that...

    News Collingwood 125 year commemorative emblem

    There was a bit of variation in our jumper including more than a few jumpers with white cuffs and a black collar between 1928 and 1939. I think our current clash at least needs the black collar and I'd prefer black cuffs too. Albert Lauder (career span 1926-1931) Bill Libbis (career span...

    Reckon it's an optical illusion due to the gable being off-centred. Surely someone wouldn't build a house crooked?

    Hi Darren, Glad you appreciated me updating the board on your redevelopment. Cheers, 1892 If you're going to be a smart-arse at least put the comma in the right place.

    Their knock down/rebuild sold at auction and the facade looks pretty true to the original. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/victoria/the-blocks-darren-and-deanne-jolly-sell-their-controversial-kew-east-investment-property-for-more-than-29-million/news-story/9be5f90819e5fbafedcf32c39cbd0d29

    Opinion Tradedraft's Thoughts for 2016

    The AFL's already given them 5 million towards new digs and are helping them obtain the rest from government funding. Interesting we allowed Swann to access the Holden Centre to gain ideas, it's not something I think we should be doing...

    Opinion Tradedraft's Thoughts for 2016

    I get where you're coming from Dave and I'm not a fan of rewarding mediocrity either, but they've made a lot of off field changes in recent years to the extent that it's an AFL backed regime in most of the important positions (Swann, Noble, Fagan) that means the AFL aren't handing it out to the...
