It's a simple question. The results are interesting, and mathematically true. I very rarely create threads, however thought I would share on this occasion as I feel this may impact the second half of the year.
I've been keeping a spreadsheet of the difficulty of opponent each team faces, each...
So my grand father has been a Collingwood man his whole life. He was head of security for 20 odd years and was one of the people who helped Darren Millane in to the club. Darren lived with him for a few years in East Doncaster as well.
Skip to the present day and he's a man in his late 80's and...
Anyone know what colour comes up when you scan in at the MCG for concession? I know kids is orange, is concession orange as well? Also, are elderly with pension card also considered concession?
Cheers!
Is there anywhere to see who the umpire appointments are for this rounds matches? I always thought they were announced with the team sheets? Is that so?
A hypothetical.... as that's all we can do before the season proper starts. I don't want to go in to the ASADA findings as that would deem this thread to be in the wrong place, and it's not.
Now that it appears Essendons 34 players are legal to play (save for any appeal), is there anyone else...
So my team loses on the weekend by 9 points.... and without the services of Jason Winderlich. Yet Collingwood's Dayne Beams has no case to answer? Moral of the story.... if you receive contact, fall to ground and milk it for all it's worth. Whether the player falls or not should NOT be a part of...
So let me ask. If ASADA come down and hit 34 players with infringements for two years. What happens?
Are you happy to see Essendon crumble and field a horrible team of amateurs for two years?
What happens to salary cap? Do Essendon need to find room in its cap to pay 34 players who can't...
if not for the club. For the players, members and fans.
I am a member of the Essendon Football Club and have been supporting the mighty red and black since I was 4 years old. That's over 30 years.
This scandal is tearing at the heart of everyone involved and every person it touches. I have...
Hi guys.
I just jumped on TAB and it said that betting has opened for the Melbourne Cup. I'm not keen enough to have accounts on all the different providers, but usually like to get on a few fixed odd horses early out.
Does anyone know which horses are likely to be in the Melbourne Cup this...
As we all know, James Hird has been under some scrutiny these pasts months and even more so this past week. On Bomberblitz a campaign has been brought to life to provide some support for Legend of the game, James Hird. Essendon supporters, James Hird supporters and lovers of the game have begun...
All this talk about St Kilda and their intensity, or lack of.
All this talk about how they have dropped off from last year.
All this talk about how the players no longer want it.
Rubbish!
Ross Lyons game plan is from the same era as the first season of Star Trek! It's from the black and...
Honestly, all this hype about how incredible the Pies are.... I'm not buying it for a minute! As Chris Rock says... ya'll just need to calm the **** down!
Pies are the best team in the competition, they won the flag last year, no-one is disputing that. But, they're far from unbeatable as so...
Okay..... which team is going into 2011 with the worst list. Simple at that.
I'm listing the bottom 5 teams from last year and not including Gold Coast as they're only starting and deserve a year or two before being picked at and prodded.
Posting this on Bay 13 because you kids won't be able...
Some discussion!
Who will win it?
I am going for a RBR win. Hopefully Webber. I think Alonso will create the podium. Not going out on a limb there, I know. ;)
I have a bet with a mate that a Renault will sit on the first 3 rows of the grid! Will see.
Who is going? I'm making the dash from...
Bonehead of the round: Italy
Surely this has to go to Hamilton who saw red mist early and went out in the 2nd corner. Fessed up to it later though, which was good, but still a stupid mistake when you're looking at a championship.
Close runner up would be Emerson Fitttipaldi who thought...
Just a heads up guys! Tickets for grandstands and Advantage tickets are going to move fast for next years GP due to the season Webber is having. We have spoken with GP Corp this week who are getting record calls/interest for next years race.
If you are keen to go to next years GP with an...
Just watched the game and it looked to me like the last kick of the game was kicked before the siren and was accurate on goal.
The Hawks defender just walked around the Doggies player and plucked the ball out of the air. Had that ball gone through the goals would it not have been a goal and...
It's off season and we're all short for ideas..... so....
*yes, keep reading*
What moment sticks out as one which was heavily slow-motion replayed for you? An almost, maybe, could have been, wasn't fair, wrongly umpired, one percenter etc.
For me I'd say the Michael Long goal in the 1993 GF...
Not sure if this thread has been done yet or not.
Isn't it a common for the past x seasons that one team seems to go from the bottom 8 into the top 4? This year that didn't happen. It almost did with Collingwood going into the 4 but they finished 8th last year.
:(
Lingering neck injury from a bike accident has pushed him to pull away from it.
Sigh.

Being in QLD I usually get to see games live on Main Event. This Sunday though there is a fight on Main Event and as such my game is not live.
Channel 10 have the game from 3pm tp 5pm. Does this usually involve highlights of the first half then second half live? Or how does it work?
Cheers!
Lucas is s embarrassed to be out there and doing so badly. He doesn't want to look like an idiot so is nervous and being nervous he's not playing his natural game so is looking like an idiot. It's a bad spiral.
Knights needs to send him to the magoos for two weeks to get his confidence and game...
Anyone else having this problem? I can't login. I can see everything and it even allowed me to chance my password but I can't login. I've tried using another browser and another pc and the same thing.
Is this happening to anyone else? Is this a Betfair problem? Perhaps their server is too busy...
1. 1991.
Nearly 20 years since a Premierships. Not exactly a 'powerhouse of the competition' are you?
2. Poo and piss.
Who in their right mind would come up with or want to wear those colours. Always gives me a laugh!
3. Tasmania.
Is what happens when your home ground in Waverley Park is just...
Essendon beat Brisbane by 27 points then beat the Doggies by 54 points. In that logic, we're looking at a 108 point win... right? That's not bad!! :cool:
I'm thinking 31 point win to Essendon.
Players putting themselves to the test
Essendon coach Matthew Knights says his playing group is pushing itself to the limit in preparation for the NAB Cup opener against Brisbane on the Gold Coast on February 16. “At the moment I can only compliment the group on the way they are attacking...
