    Olympic Gold Medalist tests positive

    Australian swimmer Kylie Palmer's Rio Olympics dream is in serious jeopardy with confirmation she has returned an allegedly positive drug test to FINA. The Olympic gold medallist has withdrawn from the Australian team for the FINA World Championships after accepting a provisional ban for the...

    Who are the neutrals supporting today?

    Question for neutral supporters. Who will you support today and is it different to 2012? In 2012 I was firmly in the swans camp but this year I am leaning towards the hawks. The change is mainly due to the Tippett and Franklin deals. Reeks of Carlton in the 80's.

    Hird going after Clothier and AFL

    This is an interesting side show. I've always thought that the afl have a few skeletons in the closet. It was revealed late last year that Clothier added a key piece of evidence to the brief against Hird — relating to an alleged “warning” in August 2011 about peptides — two years after a...

    Ladder position after next round

    We are a side that should improve this year. In many ways that improvement will NOT be reflected in ladder position but development of youngsters and playing as a team. Having said that for us supporters it's a nice measure to move out of the bottom 4, if we can. This is a bit like a tipping...

    Retirement - Return on Investment

    I have a question for the financial planner types. I am looking at when I might be able to retire and would like to know what ROI a financial planner would generally use to determine how long money will last. Lets say for arguments sake we started with $1mill cash and could invest anywhere. Of...

    What do genuine swinging voters think?

    I am someone who is a genuine swinging voter and am interested to hear the thoughts of other GSV's. I tend to be drawn to the better team rather than a particular ideology and the current situation has me with no where to go. I just can't picture Hockey as treasurer, I'd honestly prefer Swan...

    Whitten Oval

    Is it time to sell the naming rights to our ground? As much as the name "Whitten Oval" honours a club great, it doen't help pay the bills or assist the football dept. I believe we are giving the opposition a free kick by not chacing every dollar we can.

    Finishing 5th

    There has been much talk that finishing top 4 is a prerequisite for winning a premiership. Much of this talk is based on history rather than logic. StKilda and Geelong didn't play in the GF last year because of where they finished on the ladder, they played in the GF because they were the...

    Interesting trend or useless Stat?

    ** I just realised there is already a thread started earlier in the week on the same topic. ** Grinding the hunters down by Castro. http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/showthread.php?t=705567 From rounds 2 - 8 there has only been 1 team to record a win the week after playing the bulldogs. That was...

    Is fitness an issue?

    Firstly let me say I think we lost tonights game in the 2nd and 3rd quarters when we refused to take on their flood by kicking deep to a contest. However, Last week Eade stated he was tempted to play 1 or 2 men short in the last few minutes of the game against Adelaide because our players were...

    We are in a GF

    Prior to the NAB cup I was hoping to win the first 2 and get knocked out in round 3. Logic being that we would get 3 hit outs on decent grounds but not be distracted by a "GF" that really means nothing. Now that we are in this worthless "GF" I think it could work in our favour. Hopefully the...

    Were the pies "profligate"

    Mike Sheahan said in his article today: "The Magpies were profligate from the outset." I didn't see enough of the game to comment so I am interested in hearing if others share Mikes thoughts.......Were the Pies really "Profligate" last night. It sounds serious if they were.

    My rants

    I have posted some rather negative comments in various threads the last 12 hours. I would like to say that if I have offended or upset anyone then you can go and get stuffed! I have never in the last 40 years felt this bad about my club. Never! I am at rock bottom after the roller coaster ride...

    Alastair Clarkson

    What knoweldge has he gained the last few weeks? a: We don't tag a guy like Judd. b: Acker is our best backman and great at kickouts. Me thinks Rocket has been trying to fool Alastair for the last 3 weeks. Time to give Eade a break and judge the guy on the results of the next few weeks...

    Top 8 v Top 8 Teams

    For those who dont visit the main board. I have been frustrated in recent times about the meaning of the ladder due to the ridiculous draw we have. I therefore decided to do a ladder for the top 8 teams based on games they have played against other top 8 teams just to see how each team...

    Ladder - Top 8 v Top 8 Teams

    I have done a ladder up to rnd 13 of the top 8 teams only using games against other top 8 teams. As they have not all played the same number of games against other top 8 teams the points are not relevant. I have therefore given each team a points score based on the percentage of points they have...

    Members Survey - 2006

    I just recieved a Member Survey for 2006. There are 72 questions, many of which are very similar to previous questions. The large number of questions will surely turn many off answering which will be to the detrement of the survey.

    Home games in Tassie

    Stkilda are trying to off load their contracted home games in Launceston. From my point of view I beleive the club should seriously look at this as an alternative to Darwin. There is less travel involved for the players (They can be home for dinner on game day). The conditions in Launceston...

    Interstate Games

    It is obvious that the revenue generated from selling our home games interstate is a financial necessity at the moment and will be for the foreseable future. I read with interest in the Age that the saints are looking at dropping home games in Tassie. Here is a scenario for your comment: We...
