Would have Gawn easily over Cox. GAJ is one of the greatest of all time, but for balance I'd drop him and bring in Martin. Outside run and goal kicking better than quick one-two handbells in this case. Have Judd and Voss inside toughness and explosion out of the middle, Cousins gut running and...

Gawn reading this OP...

PieBeast - what a d!ckhead.

Yep - Matthews was a coward and the biggest sook to play the game. He was getting beaten by a first game from Melbourn one time, so king hit him - a 19-year-old kid, and Matthews was a man at his peak physically. He did the same to Steven Smith and Peter Giles. If he was getting beaten, he...

Fox footy votes 3 - Rankine 2 - Walker 1- Pickett Just mind-boggling. None of those three would be in the best 12 on the field.

Matthews should be remembered as a coward and one of the worst humans to play the game. But he is part of the AFL boys club, so they canonise him. He was a sook who king hit people when he was being beaten. A real lowlife who should have been kicked out of the game, but continued to do it...

Nah, it's worse than that. Looks like he spends about 90 minutes on it before kick off.

Can't look at him without having flashbacks to one of the worst and most overrated movies of all time - David Lynch's Eraserhead. If I was running the show at Melbourne, I'd go full Monty Burns and he wouldn't get a game until he shaved it off.

Yep - so cringeworthy. But so many AFL marketing gimmicks are. Like "The Shinboner spirit" for example - means nothing, does nothing, just a pointless catchphrase. Same with "Bloods culture" -

Sounds like a late injury out cost Wilkie a massive multi.

Haha - do you seriously believe that story? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Cocaine doesn't get cut with Clenbuterol. It was Eddie Maguire, the AFL and their mates in the media covering up a couple of positive PED tests.

This probably explains why Goodwin was so angry at Joel Smith and wouldn't speak to him - It's not that he was on the gear in the days before a game, it's that there was a clear process to avoid getting busted and he didn't go get tested like he was supposed to. Either laziness or stupidity...

Do you seriously think testing players on the quiet to avoid getting done for recreational drugs is a much greater scandal than a club running a systematic performance-enhancing drug program, and the AFL being aware of it and tipping them off that they were about to get busted? That's one of...

Pre-meditated assault - should have been locked up. What a piece of s**t.

Essendon really have embarrassed themselves as a club this week. Mouth off about being tough and get done for a couple of cheap shots - Drapers's a real coward act - then the players hid in the shadows when it was time to get the hardball. If a team could be described as a player, they would...

I notice you are still not responding to my original question. Trying to be a grammar nazi to avoid it is a pretty cowardly way of going about things.

You made an idiot of yourself trying to toll. Stopping digging - Take your loss.

Weird that you can spell, but can't comprehend the post. Maybe read the post again. You've made a goose of yourself.

Hahahaha. And I choose not to sleep with Scarlett Johansson because I don't want to travel. That's probably the stupidest comment I've seen on BigFooty - congrats.

It has always been the elite comp. Nobody decided to leave the VFL to test themself in the great leagues of SA and WA. A few went for money or to go home, but the VFL was where interstate players came if they wanted to play against the best. Everyone knows that, but the AFL over the last...

Deliberately taking a player out after he disposed of the ball. It's a weak act and dangerous, needs to be stamped out of the game.

As a Hawthorne supporter I'd be interested to get your take on Jai Newcombe's cowardly hit on Clayton Oliver in the first quarter. Deliberately changing his line to clean up Oliver after he disposed of the ball should get a couple of weeks' suspension, but not one word of it by the media or on here.

No - only premierships won at the elite level count. Melbourne wouldn't count a Reserves, Casey (or Sandringham in the past) Premiership.

Hate his haircut - have never been able to get past that and appreciate his game.

It was too good an opportunity to pass up. On a serious note - would Canberra have the corporate support? A lot of revenue is generated from selling premium seats, functions, Corporate suites and coterie groups. I'm sure the government would not be able to justify it. How do the Raiders do...

I'm sure both of those fans would come around. I can already hear the chants; Canberra Canberra Canberra - Roo Roo Roo.

One player helped their team win a premiership, the other ruined the culture and inflicted on us one of the biggest oxygen thieves in the country. It's pretty clear who won that trade.

For Melbourne it's Gawn, not just because he is the best ruckman in the comp and an all-time great, but because they don't have any other rucks. His contested marking around the ground is a massive part of Melbourne's game and can't be replaced. I rate Oliver as the best player in the team...

Collingwood persecution complex going strong.

Pretty sure Lucas Cook broke the record for the slowest player ever tested at the AFL Combine, I remember Emma Quale tweeted it at the time, and then Melbourne drafted him at pick 12 as a lead-up forward. Just mind-boggling how incompetent they have been over the years.
