Thanks mianfei
I only just found this reply after four years. Thanks for all of that info. 1968 was the first year I ever went to a WANFL game. A losing Preliminary final for West Perth against East Perth. I went to practically every West Perth game for the next 10 years. Austin Robertson if...
Ablett Senior was so good he got judged against himself, not against other players. He kicked 10.6 against Adelaide once and couldn't get a Brownlow vote. A 10.3 effort against Fitzroy got him 1 vote.
Absolutely amazing.
Cost be $45,000. I backed Sandilands to be leading after Round 8 $1,500 @$31.00.
I still have nightmares. "C.Judd, Carlton, 3 votes" "C.Judd, Carlton, 3 votes"
The season is only two games old but it looks like all four teams who have played so far are copying the Bulldogs 2016 game plan. That is fast ball movement and hit the scoreboard. It's almost like 1970's football.
How are we shaping up ? What's our style going to be in 2017 ? Are we going to...
Mumford's strength is not his ruck work. It's the way he intimidates the opposition. He doesn't just intimidate the average sized players, he intimidates the biggest players.
GWS have a poor winning record when he is not playing.
The Bulldogs didn't play Minson all season because he doesn't suit their gameplay. Minson dominated in the VFL where they won the flag so it wasn't because he was out of form.
Hawthorn came last this season for congestion possessions for about the fourth season in a row. So much for needing to...
Bulldogs game plan is about avoiding stoppages ours is about creating stoppages. I hope Ross Lyon's game plane comes back into fashion but I'm suspecting it won't.
Is anyone a bit suspicious about how close the bookies got to getting it exactly right.
Apart from Gaff and Nick Riewoldt, they got every team pretty much in exactly the right order.
Here we go ...
Cotchin (Rich) (no Martin) - $1.28 x
Rockliff (Bris) - $1.22 x
Hall (GC) - $5.00 x
Laird (Adel) (no Sloane) - $3.00 x
Gibbs (Carl) - $1.90 x
Total = $44.50
Suggestions please.
I have a multi. WB & Syd to make GF with Tom Mitchell (Syd) to win the Brownlow.
The return if Tom Mitchell wins tomorrow night is $194,000. Cash Back offer is $1,100. Do I take the $1,100 or let it ride ? Thanks
I wasn't being sarcastic. I agree that these players were all ignored by opposition coaches when they were younger. You can add Jobe Watson to that list as well.
Maybe it's the Ross Lyon style of football that's putting players off.
Choosing between Hawthorn (for example) and Fremantle might be like choosing between working for Google and working down a coal mine in the players minds.
Forwards want to kick goals they don't want to lay tackles. Mayne...
Good point. Mitchell, Swan, Priddis and now Rockliff are ignored by opposition coaches because they don't do damage. What a crock of ****. The ability to find the ball is a talent that can't be taught.
I'll have to watch a replay just to see if the umpiring was as bad as I thought it was. I was at the game and the two gimme goals were simply not there. Absolutely terrible. Felt sorry for North.
The WACA lost a lot of soul when the West Perth Cricket Club left. If Tom Percy wants to keep cricket at the WACA good on him. The WACA is historically the most important piece of real estate in the state and cricket needs to stay there.
The new stadium is the biggest load of crap that's ever...
Tom Rockliff ... A combined total of 7 votes from five 40+ possession matches. No three vote games. Bit of a change of heart from 2013 from the umps.
Instead of taking pot shots at each other how about trying to help each other out for 2015. Sportsbet have already put up a market.
