I usually spend grand final day with only one eye on the game so I always enjoy reading the rankings, from best to worst, of all players in the Sunday papers. How would you rank them?
I'm more interested in what others think as there would be plenty out there who saw more of the game, and...
Huge game today.
It's hard to believe but with GWS winning yesterday Melbourne find themselves in a familiar position once again. If they lose today they've got one hand on the coveted Lachie Whitfield Cup. While tanking is in the headlines I doubt Melbourne will do anything to draw adverse...
I don't think I've ever made a thread on the NM board so take it easy on me while I work on my :stern looks.
Was listening to Triple M Sunday Roast or whatever they're calling it these days and the discussion drifted to Essendon and, naturally, their long list of soft tissue injuries arose...
Just quickly checked the fixture and five or six times this season GC and GWS have played on the same day and quite often in overlapping timeslots. When this happens, invariably, the result is a rather dreary day of football. It's been magnified this weekend. Saturday featured four games that...
If anyone (anyone, anyone? :p) picked up a hard copy of The Australian or has a digital pass they will have seen that they have ranked who they believe to be the top 50 most influential in sport.
While the list is fairly arbitrary, and without a digital pass which fully expands on the list...
A lot of anticipation for this one. Tension is palpable. :p
Gillard in the stands, so we can expect roughly forty shots of her per minute. I expect Gillard to get more airtime than Falou and for her to ground the easy lobs from the fox footy team when they interview at halftime as she...
Building up to the Royal Rumble thought it might be cool to have a thread where we post some awesome RR moments. They can be fun or they can be intense.
One of my favourite moments: Too Cool reunites and dances a little while.

As a side note, I can't wait until the next MSG ppv...
Having read through the No Christmas thread I was wondering what everyone's favourite day is in the Christmas period.
Personally, my favourite is Christmas Eve. Always head back home, the one day of the year where I catch up with all my old mates, for at least part of the day, and usually head...
I was planning on posting this when the article appeared in the Herald Sun, but I had an infraction that stopped me from posting new threads for a week.
Last week in the business section of the Herald Sun there was an article discussing the value that companies derive from sports sponsorship...
Well, what do we think?
Right now Geelong are pumping Collingwood.
Does this change premiership favouritism?
Does it show that Collingwood don't exactly have this premiership already engraved and sitting at the Westpac Centre?
Or is this just a blip with Collingwood having an off-night...
Would post on Question and Answer board but I'm desperate for a quick answer.
It is girlfriend's birthday today. Going out for dinner tonight (leave in like 15 minutes). I haven't gotten her anything, she knows this. We spent pretty much the whole day shopping, but she's your typical girl...
Too much negativity on this board. Things That Shit Me thread is up to Part 6 and there isn't anywhere to post good stuff that happens.
You're all a bunch of angry, negative pricks! :p
Thing that pleases me?
Just got telstra cable installed.
Haven't hit 100mb/s as promised but while...
I was playing Assassin's Creed II the other night for about two hours, just running around climbing viewpoints and searching for glyphs. I was having a great time, but it made me think that these days I dont have the time to sink massive hours into games like I used to back when I was a...
Well, with the Ekon Powerband marketing scam finally blowing up in the faces of the owners and it being so close to Christmas, I thought I'd make a general thread about rip-offs and marketing scams.
Thread can be about being ripped off at an event, ripped off by a business or a marketing ploy...
Well, voting starts on Monday, so thought I'd start a thread.
This year I'm pretty interested to see what finishes as number one. Unlike last year, I cant really think of any song that has a real 'number one' hype surrounding it like Little Lion Man did last year.
As for my votes, I'm...
Surprised there isnt a thread for this.
From the creator of Arrested Development, starring Will Arnett and featuring David Cross in a recurring role should be three statements that are genuinely orgasm inducing.
I'm downloading the pilot episode now. Will post back with thoughts.
What average, everyday tasks are you really skilled at?
I just crumbed a chicken breast and cooked it to perfection. Juicy and tender. I have managed to do this every-time for about two years. Every-time someone cooks me chicken it's slightly overcooked because everyone is worried about...
The AFL are determined to schedule the ninth game in 2012 in a new non-traditional timeslot rather than add another game to a traditional timeslot.
They seem to have ruled out Monday night football as a regular timeslot and are perhaps leaning towards Saturday 5pm. Would seem to be a wise...
Had to go into the city today to hand in a form to the Victorian Institute of Teaching and was just interested in the amount of people wearing pants. Not people at work, but people wearing jeans or slacks going about their day-to-day lives.
Wearing pants in extreme heat isnt an old person...
Hey,
Am new to this membership game as Ive lived out of Victoria my entire life until this year. Signed up for a membership at the home game against Hawthorn, they gave me a general admission ticket for entry. Havent heard anything from the club since, apart from a text thanking me for 'staying...
Two home games, crowds of 41k and 43k. The Collingwood cheersquad (behind the goals) was very sparse against Melbourne. Is it a sign of the times or is there something else happening? I mean, Collingwood are a powerhouse Victorian club who you'd assume wouldve pushed 50k for the Adelaide game...
Mystery of the 2305 missing fans at ANZ Stadium
Thread has relevance in AFL expansion board; discuss expansion of WS, potential purchase of ANZ Stadium and factual evidence that crowd figures are inflated by rugby league clubs.
