    Prediction Sending the B-Team to Tassie vs Hawks

    Lyon always has me guessing, on one hand I think he is a strategic genius playing the long game - ie conserving the squad and doing the minimum required to secure a home final. On the other hand I have doubts and think the team is constantly struggling to win and we are barely holding onto form...

    Tony Modra

    Always remember him being upstairs at the Left Bank Pub celebrating Freo's first derby win (long awaited). No doubt his presence helped the freo boys with confidence that day.

    Expansion Why AFL fails miserably in Queensland

    I believe Queensland and NSW are fickle because of parochialiam. For the most part they are not really interested in such a Vic centric league unless they are winning and sticking it up the Vics. When the teams are poor they just tune out. WA and SA were happy to have a local team in the game...

    Colin Sylvia Retires

    Pretty much, but worth it in the end. Pity the guy could not be bothered for this year in particular. If Freo go all the way he will be looking very silly.

    Yarran gone for weeks

    1 less week than I thought, but did not foresee the significant "he was provoked" outcry that happened afterwards. The main conclusion from this is that Yarran can be provoked into doing something stupid. I hope he will learn from this as he is a good talent.

    Toast Lachie Neale

    Not me, I was amazed. Reminded me of Winston at the WACA (just for that goal before anyone jumps on me).

    Yarran gone for weeks

    4 weeks for me, Split him open with a nice left hook. AFL looking to send a message early in the season.

    Acts that ended AFL careers

    He was also pretty handy at Carlton early on. But I maintain that prior to that tackle he looked as good as you will ever see in the game, afterwards I never saw the outright domination.

    Acts that ended AFL careers

    Stretching the topic, but I think Corey McKernan deserves a mention. Was one of the most dominant AFL players I have seen during 95/97, and this was for North that was not lacking for talent those days. Would have won the brownlow in 96 if he didnt have a brain fade and drop a knee on John...

    FTA-TV Top Gear UK Series

    If the allegations are true, 20 minute verbal tirade followed by a short touch up, then the beeb is virtually forced to cut his contract. He crossed the line and then some. In a way I am almost happy to see Top Gear go out like this, dramatically while the show is still half decent. Clarkson...

    Smartwatches

    I was very keen on the apple watch, but have been scared off by battery and cost (factor into cost the need to buy a new iphone). Strangely enough, I am becoming tempted by the Microsoft Band which offers the exact functionality I want: a wide array of fitness sensors (that all work away from...

    Daniel Kerr retired

    Kerr was indeed >> Hasleby.

    J-Pod

    Dont like this idea. He is past it, and this theme that we must get a key forward does not stack up against our performance this year. Had we not got the yips in the GF....

    Colin Sylvia to Fremantle

    He looks like a big unit and weight is up there. Any chance he has gone a bit Medhurst in his later stages at freo, you remember when he was running around with legs like tree trunks.

    Opinion Does Deboer make the cut?

    I completely agree with. Makes you wonder what the actual value of a top 3 pick is, if you were to forced to trade a freo player for this pick what would be considered to a reasonable deal for both parties? Johnson, Hill maybe
