    "due to our increased popularity....

    Well it's been 20 minutes+, and that 'whip up' hasn't happened yet. Not bothered to do it, or getting too many server busy messages?? (pssst be careful of your answer here Homer......... ;) )

    Financial reward for winning the GF

    Powerstuff if you've got the time to deciper the info on that link I gave, I'm sure it's all on there. From memory there's a minimum and maximum amount of players allowed on lists. Seniors are one thing rookies are another. And then number of rookies allowed is based on the number of seniors...

    Lions-soccer?

    And all these years on the Receptionist at the Brisbane Lions AFC still gets calls from ppl wanting to leave a message for their mum whom their supposed to meet for lunch in front of the 6th line of poker machines but are going to be late so mum should go and get a table and set them up for...

    Lynch=Disgrace

    Hey this is the comment I was replying to. That ALL would remember Lynch that way. All, the whole of (with reference to quantity, extent, duration,amount, or degree), the whole number of, any, whole quantity, whole amount, etc etc etc according to the Macquiarie Pocket Dictionary - my source...

    "due to our increased popularity....

    Now what would be the use of specifiying a link to the BFSC page there unless they were informed that as a member it would avoid them getting the server busy message again? Without that information it would be useless advertising, with it, it would be useful for some, and just (as it is now)...

    Financial reward for winning the GF

    Powerstuff I'll try and find it shortly for you, but from memory from reading the CBA on the aflpa site, a rookies salary is something like $25k per annum, and a first round draft pick's salary is soemthing like $45k per annum.

    Financial reward for winning the GF

    Financial rewad for winning a GF is complicated on so many different fronts. Player Contracts: We've all read the articles on top line players re-committing to a club and including a Brownlow Clause. For exammple in an interview Voss commented on how he didn't have a bonus clause in his...

    Clarkson calls 4am training session...

    With all the talk/wishing of Matthews returning to the Hawks fold that has gone on for the last couple of years, imagine if that had actually happened. Would anyone be questioning it if Matthew's had taken the reign's and you could substitute Leigh Matthews name for Clarkson's in the article...

    Yze Magic's Top 10 chances of being booted!

    See it's working already!! One tip for free though: If you are inclined to post a serious series of threads with a similar theme that have the potential to clog up the first (or 2nd or 3rd etc) pages all on their own (and that's besides the copycat reactions full of ******** type...

    Yze Magic's Top 10 chances of being booted!

    No just getting in before all the "shut up yze tragic" posters arrive regardless of content of the threads. Gives them something else to do instead of bitch about the number of posts on the board.

    Yze Magic's Top 10 chances of being booted!

    Post your guess!! Probably better chance of picking the winner than the Melbourne Cup! You can pick anything between the time of this post and 2pm Tuesday afternoon! Down to the minute (Bigfooty clock time) are your choices. For example: Wednesday 27/10/04 4:01pm Thursday...

    Luke Power

    Fatty, unfortunately for your friend, Luke is very much off the market. He has an absolutely adorable lady and has had for quite some time. She's quite a remarkable young woman who suits him down to the ground. Even to the extent that (for example) he offered to drive some others to the...

    Clarkson calls 4am training session...

    Squeak the only way IMO that someone would be sacrificing their career by taking a stance like that would mean those they're working with shouldn't be there in the first place. I wonder if Clarkson's been watching Foxtel this week? They've been playing that movie where Whoopi Goldberg...

    Clarkson calls 4am training session...

    It's not often you can actually say you see a 'team' lose together, normally it's a group of individuals on the ground losing together. Doing something like this is almost ensuring a team mentality. They either all start being hard workers together, or they all start resenting the coach...

    Clarkson calls 4am training session...

    There's probably also a bit of it that is Clarkson stamping his authority on things. It would be a tough enough job bringing an unsuccessful group back to a cohesive unit when you have a reputation behind you, but doing it as a newbie on the coaching block would be even harder. When Matthews...

    Clarkson calls 4am training session...

    You'd think if he was only a little late or had a very good reason, this wouldn't have happened. When the focus on everything is 'team' and one person dissents from that, resulting in the entire team being 'punished' then it's not the coach they should be peeved at, it's at the player who...

    I Think Gehrigs got a drinking problem

    Re: Gehrigs got a drinking problem Vic Bashing???? Arguement?? It was neither. If anything my comments are in defense of Vic players finding themselves overly critiqued by the media because of the fishbowl existance they live in.

    Lynch=Disgrace

    Not by all - only by those who want to remember him that way. Me? It might have been 3 full seasons ago now, but my most permiating memory of Alastair Lynch is his face, his emotion, his actions, his celebration at the final siren of the 2001 GF with the ball in his hands. It's been like...

    I Think Gehrigs got a drinking problem

    Re: Gehrigs got a drinking problem And for a footballer based in Victoria, it would appear to be substantially higher than those in other states, especially QLD and possibly NSW. You play for a Victorian team, you play, live, work, fail or succeed in a highly polished glass fishbowl more...

    Irish media on Second Test

    Thanks to the terrier's on-field antics, the IR game made the news on each channel here in Brisbane (and not just lip-service - video as well), as well as making the news updates during the day. That's a first in itself. Enough to make a few ppl interseted in what the hell this strange game...

    Ben Graham: A PUNTER

    I had chance to talk to former Brisbane/Hawthorn player Nathan Chapman this year before and after he went for his tryout with Greenbay. I was actually surprised a the $$ figure he bandied around. It was no where near what I conservatively expected - it was far far lower. The status, the...

    Akermanis's Literary Venture

    Love him or hate him, it's sure to be an interesting read. His book comes out next week via GSP which I think is part of or associated with AFL Publishing. Over the years we've seen and heard so much about him, his family situation/s, his thoughts on everything from other players to his own...

    Lynch=Disgrace

    He may have lost his cool way more than necessary on GF day, but to surmise he was a disgrace for his entire career is nothing short of a cheap shot by you. I like many on this board have had ample opportunities over the years to make his acquaintance. A gentleman through and through. A man...

    The Most Hated Player in the AFL?

    Aker's book is due out next week sometime I think it is. Aker is honest to the point of being brutally honest, not a trait that many people show these days, and going by his normal interview style, if it's anyway similar this book will be a ripper. It'll make even more ppl jump off the fence...

    AFLFA - Award 2 - Coach of the Year

    Hey it's a national competition now, obviously there must have been a few mergers no one else knew about if he played and coached for one club! Mark Williams (yes the same Mark 'choco' Williams' was the first player to put pen to paper to sign a contract to play for the Brisbane Bears in...

    AFLFA - Award 2 - Coach of the Year

    And what's the AFLFA? Does the winner or a voter for the winner get a prize? A week in Port Douglas? A new car? Or maybe even a footy signed by the person voted as the winner? C'mon you don't want everyone to do something for nothing here do you?

    Life After Football

    "answering the following question" for whom??? You're not related to the new company in Melbourne/Victoria that are focusing on life after football/career opportunities for players that have retired say in the last 5 years or so are you?

    Its Time........

    Let's get a smidgeon of perspective here. 1) It's nothing short of plain wrong that there is only 5 games in Victoria next year. I doubt anyone from any side of the merger or new to the club since the merger would disagree with that. 2) Recording/Reporting of Records/Statistics. As Shaz...

    Gabba?

    If you watch any of the Cricket on tv from the Gabba you might be lucky to catch a glimpse - but it seems like they almost are trying to avoid showing it at present. The verandah is gone, the seats and concrete stand the seats were on have gone, the stairs etc between the social club and the...

    Just on Johnathon Browns delayed tribunal

    I don't know about how much booze they might or might not have been sinking - but there is every likely hood they were doing the team and friendship thing that night in that vicinity. A teammates Bucks party after an asst coaches b'day party.
