or a guy who has realized his footy career mortality and is actively planning for retirement

Damn, BT ruins another amazing footy moment. Just say it once you dickhead and let the vision tell the emotions.

Him and Clark are such clear examples of what their attitudes are toward themselves and their footy. Style over substance. Doesn't matter if the dude wasn't a winner, he looks cool, gets the likes. That's what matter with those clowns. Further exemplified when them and their 'tough' teams gang...

I read somewhere that it has to do with the AFL and wanting the 'traditional' rivalry AND the 'traditional' guernseys. They are probably assuaging some old power broker who doesn't like those damned hippy colors in Carlton's kit. I can't believe they would let one club pull that crap...

OK, I have no idea about this episode, but my guess NM fired up the Cats and got totally annihilated.

weren't there similar posts earlier about Port and KP? [crossing fingers]

ahh the frozen tundra of Kardinia Park...anyone rocking up bare-chested with Cats spelled out on their chests? :grinv1:

On Cameron's tackle, I see him tucking his head under Duggan's chin as he takes him down. I played American football up to high school and to me that looks like a deliberate attempt to hurt. Back in my day, that was the sort of thing you might do with your helmet.

as is watching the clock until a certain second...:winkv1:

Some stat hound needs to figure out some stats to rate recruiting departments. Name a medal after Wells.

There you go, the next time Geelong play Melbourne they both got to wear that era's.

I'm with you. Lots and lots of great music all through the decades. I got a kick whenever my son, who grew up listening to local pop music :sick:, brought out an old classic usually from a soundtrack. In fact though he introduced me to a couple new songs (2000s, new for me). I think the older we...

This is the sort of game I'd expect a disappointment like Schultz tearing us apart with a big influential game. Always someone. Or, Kreuger stepping up for them against his old team. Sorry I'm a terrible pessimist.

Mad Monday preview? :)

Close will allow him an extra mulligan next time out on the course. :) Mannagh is not a kid. He understands this is his big opportunity, like Pods, Mene, Kelly, Stengle etal. You can see he wants it, and in VFL gets around his teammates. He will know to take on any instructions from the club...

I've only been closely following Aussie Rules about 15 years, but have been a lifelong sports fan. The AFL is probably the twistiest, parochial organization I've seen without being nakedly corrupt like a couple of the international ones are.

I don't know the parameters used, but maybe they should use the entire coaching career in their calculation? Surely Crazy Vossy drags him down a bit.

A Kenny Rogers thing :eekv1::winkv1::grinv1:

Nah, he's saved for tribunal days only... or when they need wiggle room out of scandal.

Yeah, I noticed it, then he seemed to think better of it :laughv1:

I think when the Dempsey smile comes out early, we play that way more. :)

Yeah first thing I noticed. Surprised he didn't writhe around a little. That should be the story vision, him laying there with hands to face like a (ok I'll be PC here) soccer player. And all the footy media going on how footy is getting like soccer. Its one thing to exaggerate hitting the...

the F? equating this with Darcy?

more like a Sat nights bar tab

Operable word bolded, or maybe a contract like Stengle got when he came to the club. You'd have to be a serious sort of high risk gambler to take on his contract, not just for its price, but length as well. If only they could amend it with some clauses they could invoke and tear it up, AND at...

Actually this thought occurred to me during the game. The old tactic of throwing a player on the ball to get them involved thing. He's seemed a little off since his injuries, maybe a little tentative. Maybe the crash and bash of rucking gave him confidence in his body and his competitive spirit...

I think the holding onto both of Walsh's arms will work against him. Aside from the head touching a blade of grass in a tackle, that has been on the markers. And didn't they seem to say last week that a sling alone is ok. :think: I still think that there should be media campaign promoting the...

the signal to send Stanley in? :tongueoutv1:

Wouldn't Swan be eligible for Legend status for helping push the AFL to institute an interchange cap? :think: :tongueoutv1:

Much more than some 'accumulator'.
