    Duds you actually liked

    The OP mentioned Bulluss, he wasn't a dud. Was a very decent CHB, played State of Origin also. I remember Stewart Loewe being his bitch.

    Minor setback for Foley

    Disappointing, hopefully it is only a minor setback. Very underrated IMO.

    Shane Tuck

    Just to set it straight, Tuck has requested a trade. He is not a dud & he is not Chris Judd, he is an AFL standard centreman, who'd get a game at most clubs most of the time. A second round pick to a club that needs his type is fair.

    Past #31: David Hale - drafted at #7 in the Superdraft - 129 games for NM - traded to HFC in 2010

    So was Hale replaced for an injury or for match-ups due to the conditions? I'm a fan of his & also have him in my super coach. Just curious if injured is it long term, couldn't see his name on the injury list.

    The who is the most protected player in the competition thread?

    Cheers & well said. I guess thats the crux of it isn't it! The umpires (I feel) assume that certain players will slip the tackle and actually allow them this time. They shouldn't think that Judd or whoever will most likely break the tackle or that it won't stick. It should be adjudicated on...

    The who is the most protected player in the competition thread?

    No doubt he is a slippery player, one of the things that makes him an elite player. This thread though started along the lines of who gets looked after from the boys in 'white'. Don't get me wrong I am not for a moment doubting Ablett the superstar. The point is certain players, thru no fault of...

    The who is the most protected player in the competition thread?

    Sorry buddy, I am referring to Gary Jnr, if you think Jnr hasn't been tackled in the last 2 years then you haven't been watching very closely. He's an awesome player, but to think he hasn't been tackled in the last 2 years, the only person you are having on, is yourself.

    The who is the most protected player in the competition thread?

    Read closer big fella, I didn't say tackled for 5 mins. I said within 5 mins a player caught in a lesser tackle is pinged.

    The who is the most protected player in the competition thread?

    What irritates most fans with Judd & Ablett is the fact they can be tackled and turned 720 degrees & it's play on when the ball spills out/handballed, whereas within 5 mins Mr.Noname is pinged for holding the ball when he has barely looked at it. Inconsistencies that end up being consistent.

    How are our Rookies Doing?

    I would have thought that Polak was the obvious one to place on the LTI list. Pettifer another one who won't be right for a while.

    Andrew Walker Injured Shoulder Again

    This poor bloke can't take a trick, a bit like Coughlan at Richmond. Hopefully it is not a long term injury & he is right to go round 2! :thumbsu:

    Recession/Depression proof clubs

    Gee, these Hawks get wound up about the 'Big 4'! I reckon the Hawks would trade away their flags just to be acknowledged as being in the 'Big 4'. Here's a solution for the Hawks out there, how about you say you're in the Big 4 & everyone else will go along with them & we can put them out of...

    Recession/Depression proof clubs

    Exactly right, I said pretty much the same thing in an earlier post but a Hawk fan who can't see past the end of his/her beak, got all wound up. They are doing very well, good on'em. Who sells papers, who dominates talk back topics, it's the 4 clubs you mentioned. I tell you one thing I've...

    Recession/Depression proof clubs

    As I said Hawthorn supporters are very sensitive. You have completely failed to understand my post. Oh well, maybe have another read & see if you get it! I doubt you will judging by your response. Also, thanks for the advice on going back to lurking, I'll make up my own mind on what to do in...

    Recession/Depression proof clubs

    I read this board quite a bit, don't post often. I must say Hawthorn fans are very sensitive about being included in the 'Big 4'. I'll let you Hawthorn supporters in on a little secret, their is a hidden club up in the mountains where the 4 clubs get together & laugh at you. The purpose of this...
