    I can't stop giggling at this.

    Toast Josh Kennedy, you tough S.O.B!

    Actually 3-2. But as for the karma bus and Brownlows - I suppose we could ask Juddy. "A win last night or another Brownlow, which would you prefer?" To be fair to him though, we'd need to give him time to run the numbers on the effects of each on future earnings before he had to answer.

    Carlton

    Yeah, save your players from the effects of all that travel. :D

    Favourite win and most important win so far

    I can't rate an away win as my favourite, unless I can be there - watching on TV just doesn't cut it for me. So my favourite win was Geelong. Most important - putting away a top 3 team (going by ladder pos) in Melbourne, so Carlton. But as others have said, in terms of building confidence...

    Things i learned from round 16

    I've learned that people who make generalisations are morons. ;)

    Tackle Strike? To protest Trengove's suspension for a great tackle. Not a Chicken-Wing People!

    Give all the players a hanky that they tuck into the back of their shorts. A "tackle" involves pulling it out and throwing it on the ground. :thumbsu:

    Trengove Gone - 3 Weeks

    Re: RIP: Tackling in AFL Dangerfield had one arm free. He also tried to kick shortly after the start of the tackle, putting himself more off-balance than he otherwise might have been (and meaning that he was "slung" a lot faster). Given these factors, and the speed that all of this happened...

    Merged: Maxwell and that bump

    Re: We still won't know what Nick Maxwell did wrong. On that basis, two players who clash heads during a marking contest and injure each other should both be suspended, because that's high contact too. At the ground on the day, I didn't think it was an unreasonable hit and I haven't seen...

    Presenting the premiership cup

    In our case, he did. (Just kidding - love ya Jako. :p)

    Is the Salary Cap a Farce?

    Yes. Same way a private citizen (let's call him Dick) could decide that he's gained a lot of pleasure watching a certain player (let's call him Chris), and give him a brand new Bentley. I would think that the AFL couldn't stop that (and why would they?), unless it can be shown that that...

    Is the Salary Cap a Farce?

    The question to be asked there is: do those firms sponsor the Eagles? IMO players shouldn't be restrained from going out and getting more money from endorsements from independent companies. Any payments from companies that are publicly linked with the club (and have a vested interest in the...

    McKin-LEE! QUIN-TEN!

    That shits me every game, total lack of professionalism. First Wirra changes the spelling of his name because he doesn't want it pronounced Wirr-PAN-da. Then when all the spuds in commentary call him WirraPOONda, he gives up and changes back to the original spelling. Of course, the spuds...

    Kennedy and Staker out for season

    Ouch. Well, we were utter shite that year too (beaten by bloody Essendon by 142 points only scoring 1 goal in that game), 7 wins for the year of which 5 came in the last 7 games. Young team although I'd hazard a guess to say still older on average than the 2008 model, and less injuries...
