    Off season moves

    His OBP was .326 in 2005 and .330 in 2006. He needs to be in the .370+ range (like he was in 2004 and 2001) to be considered valuable to an offense. I realise there might not be much out there but Pierre would command a fair salary you would think. Just doesn't seem worth it to me.

    Liriano to miss 2007

    I was under the impression pitchers can certainly come back as good as (or even better) after TJ surgery. Obviously not all do, but it's not as risky a procedure as it once was I thought. Still a massive blow for the Twins, he was probably pitching even better than Santana last year which is...

    Off season moves

    Why oh why would you go after Pierre? When will clubs stop looking for speedy, cant hit/get on base guys to leadoff? Is he really that much of an upgrade over Podesdnik... is Anderson (I think) no longer considered CF material? Matsuzaka: Will take a heck of a lot of money to land this guy...

    2006 Draft ....... profiles

    LH15, in your opinion what are the differences between Hansen and McKenzie. It seems from your write up that they are incredibly similar players, so why do most people have Hansen in the top 3 and McKenzie in the teens? Who do you prefer and why? I guess I'm interested in this because this is...

    HBF's Mock Draft (1-10 Only)

    Some good reasoning there, but I feel that Essendon will take Hansen at #2 and stick him at CHB for the next 10 years. Lloyd and Lucas still have at least 4 good years in them, and Johns is looking like he can actually hold down a forward spot. The other thing to remember is with Ryder, Laycock...

    Trade Teaser, But for REAL

    I would take that deal, seems like an interesting one for both teams. Both players are the same age and have had a disappointing year. Would Geelong fans be satisfied with a return of Welsh?

    MLB Season 2006 Thread

    Great time to be a Yanks fan, not so much a Dons one though. Yanks lost to Seattle in the bottom of the 9th but Boston also lost, so no damage done. The battle for the Wild Card is intriguing. Min, Chicago and Boston could all take it out. Looks like the WC may not come from the East for the...

    MLB Season 2006 Thread

    Does anyone know if any of the Mets Yankees games this weekend will be on Fox?

    Goodbye Bombers

    Bradley has stacked on a lot of weight recently, perhaps too much as he does seem to have lost some speed and endurance. He is a very hard player to judge at the moment in terms of where his best position is, but he's a 20 year old 195cm - how many such players are dominating games of footy that...

    4 year federal terms and fixed election dates

    That's what I would prefer. Similar to the US in some respects. The only obstacle to seeing the 4 yr fixed term is how to deal with the Senate.

    Bombers want big name!

    You make an excellent point(s) however I think on an Essendon line with Lloyd, Lucas and Hird (at least for 2006) O'Keefe would be able to play the same role he does in Sydney.

    Essendon to take Jay Neagle father-son

    With all the talk about the strength of next year's draft, could this be a decision based on Essendon wishing to free up their 3rd round pick next year?

    Bowden

    Fair go, I challenge anyone to honestly say they thought that was out in real-time. On replay it looked like it hit im on off but at the time it seemed to hit him outside off. Didnt see the Jones one though.

    Stopeedies 'Lock of the Week'

    Judging from last week it will be Bradley providing support for Cartledge. Perhaps even Fletcher to pinch hit if Tarrant is having a bad night.

    AFL Dream Team 2005

    Everitt is the safest best, he's the best performed player this season so I would go with him. If not, Tredrea may kick a bag tonight against the Hawks at AAMI, and West is another good option. Out of those 3 I reckon.
