2018 Fixture Discussion
The double ups are based on... The teams are divided into 3 groups, top 6, middle 6 and bottom 6. If you finish in Top 6 (like us), the breakup is either 3 - 1 - 1 or 2 -2 -1. In other words, only one double up with a bottom 6 side and either 2 or 3 double ups with top 6. If you finish in... -
Rd 1 2018 fixture guess
I think a fair reason the AFL want to kick off in Rd 1 with a Swans home game is the fact that the NRL start 2 weeks earlier than the AFL and as such already get a leg up by starting first. A few years ago the Swans played Collingwood in a standalone Rd 1 game a week before the season started...- Words: 90

Past Sam Murray - traded 2017, to Collingwood
He was a terribly selfish forward in his first year, taking potshots for goal from all over the joint anywhere inside 55m. That probably was the catalyst to move him back in his second year where he became a little more of a team player, used his speed to advantage and looked much more likely... -

List Mgmt. The 2017 Draft & Trade Hypotheticals Thread (cont. in Part II)
The 'Sydney' girlfriend was Gretel Tippett, sister of Kurt, so it could be awkward. On top of that, he's ordinary and we have enough ordinary ruckmen as it is. To move on Nankervis one year and bring in an absolute plodder the next makes little sense... -

Neutrals who are you supporting in the GF?
Crows, though won't be totally distraught if Tigers win. Just hoping the umps don't get caught up in Tiger fever like they got caught up in the Dogs fairytale last year.....- Words: 32

Roast The whats giving you the shits about the club thread- negatives only :P
I rarely get into criticising the club, but one thing that has pissed me off this week is the media stories from Hanners, Parker et al how they are proud the way they got themselves back into the finals blah, blah. It's almost as if they think it was another lot of blokes playing in the first 6... -
Player Watch #7 Harry Cunningham
When he chose to give it off to Macca on Fri night I said to my missus, "Oh FFS, he is ****ing terrified to back himself in". Not 10 secs later Carey said in commentary exactly the same thing "Some blokes want it in their hands to do something about it, some, like Harry, don't" Papers were... -
