    Restricted Free Agent Brandon Starcevich

    If we weren't bringing in Allen as a free agent, I wonder what compo pick we would have received for Starce?

    Prediction 1 Round to go, where do we finish end of H&A? Poll included.

    One of our posters in this forum has a preference for us to finish in 8th position & win the flag from there. So I looked at that possibility. There is a scenario that I did on the ladder predictor, that has us finishing 8th & winning the flag by playing Hawthorn, Collingwood & Geelong in the...

    Prediction 1 Round to go, where do we finish end of H&A? Poll included.

    If we lose to Hawthorn & if the Bulldogs beat Fremantle & GWS beats St Kilda, we would probably finish 7th & play an away final against GWS. If we lose to Hawthorn & if Fremantle beats the Bulldogs & if GWS beats St Kilda, we would probably finish 8th & play an Elimination Final against...

    Years ago during their premiership run, Hawthorn snared their missing jigsaw piece in Brian Lake at Fullback. They went on to win the flag the year after, with Lake winning the Norm Smith medal. That's what the situation we're in now I reckon. We're rebuilding on the run, whilst still in the...

    Apart from Zorko's 300th, it will be also Cameron's 250th & Hipwood's 200th games as well. So it is a huge game all round.

    List Mgmt. 2024 Father Son watch MKIII. Operation Ashcroft jnr. Featuring various academy boys.

    That's the bit that confuses me. Why didn't we use Pick 59 to pick Day up tonight, instead in the PSD tomorrow?

    And that's how I see things as well. With all of the adversity chucked at us this year, for us to win the flag was a great effort. And what it will do for us going forward, it will give us great confidence & greater belief that we can win despite the footy gods being against us. Getting that...

    So does this mean that Pick 27 will be fairly fluid on the night, depending where Ashcroft & Marshall are bid on? We'll know by the time Pick 27 comes up.

    Isn't Dan McStay one very unlucky fella! He goes to Collingwood in their premiership year & doesn't play due to injury. And his former club wins the flag the year after! Shades of Nathan Buckley's near flag adventures!

    My best mate in Melbourne knows all about Luke Lloyd. His son plays at the same local club that Luke played for. When the Lions drafted him last year, my mate says that we have got a special player there. I consider him to be a pretty good footy judge. So if Luke can stay fit next year, he...

    Autopsy AFL 2024 Preliminary Final - Cats v Lions Sat Sept 21st 5:15pm EST (MCG)

    Very classy of you. Well done. Geelong certainly didn't lose any admirers today. They played a great game.

    Brisbane All Time Team as of '24

    Before Bernie came to Fitzroy in 1978, it was a case of stopping Wilson & Murphy & you beat the Roys. We had a plethora of great little men in those days - Wilson, Murphy, Irwin, Allan to name a few. But we had no real star key position players. Until Bob Beecroft was moved to FF. He was a...

    Brisbane All Time Team as of '24

    He should have BOLTED the 86 Brownlow in. Roos was so dominant that year. Similarly when Garry Wilson should have won the 78 & 79 Brownlows, or at least one of them.

    Brisbane All Time Team as of '24

    Geez I forgot about Matt Rendell. Yep he would be my pick as the ruckman in that side. Not only was he a very good, mobile ruckman, but he could play forward as well. He kicjed 46 goals from FF in his 1st year in 1981.

    Brisbane All Time Team as of '24

    Only positions I'd change is: Bunton on the wing, Murphy ruck-rover, Wilson rover, Neale half forward. The ruck is a weakness there. Stef Martin was serviceable, But Norm Brown should be ahead of him. Even Ron Alexander who played in the 70's - 80's & captained the side with aplomb, was far...

    And one of the greatest rovers of all-time, Garry Wilson is a lock for Fitzroy's TOTC.

    Yere but WHAT IF a drugs scandal hits Carlton on the Monday after they beat us or it was found that they had 19 players on the field during the game or if a goal was overturned on Sunday morning, meaning that the win gets awarded to us, despite losing to them on the scoreboard! You mean there's...

    NO TROLLS Collingwood CEO Craig Kelly involved in racism & homophobia allegations lodged in court documents

    NO TROLLS Collingwood CEO Craig Kelly involved in racism & homophobia allegations lodged in court documents

    Whether any or all of these allegations are true, my best mate who is a passionate Collingwood supporter is absolutely fuming, that these issues have arisen again. Especially when this week should be about the great man playing his 400th game.

    Review Round 20, 2024 - Gold Coast vs. Brisbane Lions

    Lol it was one of the strangest goal celebrations that I have ever seem. I watched the replay last night & when Bailey kicks his snap goal, courtesy of a Logan Morris handball, the Big O comes over & kisses Morris on the head not once but twice! How cute that was.

    Preview Round 20 - Brisbane Lions v Gold Coast Suns, Sat 27, 4:35PM; People First Stadium, Gold Coast

    I'm over all of the doom & gloom that I had early in the week when I heard that Andrews & Joyce were out. I checked the scores on last year's game with Gold Coast. King kicked 5 goals & Andrews, Payne & Lester played that day. So even with our full compliment of defenders, we still went down. I...
