Correlating a S&P 500 type index of big name players that shows trading is lame.
Bought this up as GWS should lose tonight and will possibly outperform the index this year.
No opinions here. All just raw data and technical analysis.
The S&P (stealing players) index going back to 1994.

It's that special time of year and the smell of Spring is in the air.
I'll start off the yearly ritual.
I'll just use my template from last year.
I never thought we had the team to beat (insert team here I said we'd smash a couple of days ago)
We overacheived once again because of our coach...
A lot has been said about how footy is going and the lack of talent and skills. Fair enough too.
I thought it would be interesting to compare the team considered probably the worst in history.
1 win and an average losing margin of around 50 points
Vs
GWS who everyone considers to have talent...
After watching a great spectacle of footy, the Vic/SA State of Origin that was on the telly tonight.
Thought I'd have a go at a most entertaining team.
Only put in players I've seen and tried to include a bit of everything.
FF. Daicos Modra StevieJ
HF. D.Jarman Carey Dew
C. GazSnr Gazjr...
Not sure where to put this, but interesting little snippet in the history of our club.
Feel free to move or whatever.
Was in the car listening to SEN and Malcolm Blight was on. Was brilliant and honest as usual.
Got on to the Gaz boo thing. Said how he didn't like how someone can get booed for...
The Spazzy's award for doing 1 kick arse thing per game when it matters.
Rnd 1 Winner v Pies: Chook campaignerstable: Ripper snap in last qr. Game was on the line.
Rnd 2 Winner v Dees: Joel Selwood after copping some heavy hits kicks a left foot bannana from the boundary
Rnd 3 Winner v Crows. Mark...
Just doing a bit of pondering and it's made me think that in a H&A season Geelong may not of ever played in front of more people in a 5 week block.
Can't say for sure but I can remember back to the early 90's and this is the most I can remember. Happy to be corrected.
Could this be fast tracking...
F**ken Hawk campaigners. I didn't give a s**t about them anymore cause they're crap now, but guess what???
They're greedy campaigner liberal president privatised all the power companies and now there's a fuken blackout!
5.30 am!!!! It's gonna be fixed by.
Do you know how hot it is?
Bet ya all the leafy...
Well since the fancy Gabbo show is about to explode and looks set to retire Krusty to the scrap heap how will Ch.7 now fair in the ratings?
It seems regular AFL will be their version of Worker & Parasite.
I was thinking Geelong could be the hardworking blue collar cat breaking his back for the...
GAGF Knighter. Tried your guts out & never left for more $ or success but Your DIRT c**t.
Nick Vlastuin and Toby Nankervis are better than you ever were.
Well since the Hawfies will be occupying the bottom of the ladder for quite some time and let's face it there's only so many years of enjoyment they can possibly get from squashing Yeatesys testicles and punching out Bruns, I've now found them the perfect rival!.
Think about it,
1. Both...
Time to start a thread on AFL players that you just wanna punch in the face.
My top 3
Sharrod
I know everyone wants to punch Sicily more but for me I just can't stand this campaigners face. Maybe it's the hair, I dunno.
Sicily
Not sure how it's possible but he actually looks like more of a...
Ive kinda derailed another thread with all this stuff so thought I'd start one.
I don't want it to be like that other thread, it's not about coaching ability but if we are learning from mistakes, passing the buck, making excuses holding everyone accountable etc.
Also personally I have no inside...
He's coming. TBH I can't say that I'm that thrilled as I'm a bit iffy on trading for a 30yo player who's been injured all year (unless we get him cheap) when we've let a few of our own go,
But...Bloody Hell what a good player he's been
Can't believe Richmond are trading him. I know they've...
With the West being the fastest growing area in Australia, and the Essendon/ASADA scandal do the Bulldogs have opportunity to one day become an off field powerhouse?
The Bulldogs must make the most of this opportunity IMO.
Try and play a NAB challenge game in Melton or Sunbury. Have a lot of...
Once again...
Motlop, Caddy don't perform when we need them in the biggest games.
Mackie not only shits himself in the back line but somehow manages to seem disinterested at the same time for the last 4 final series.
Chris Scott goes Crazy Vossy again in the most important games of the year.
Not...
1.In our 5th season now of bombing long to Hawkins, it would naive to believe CS is so incompetent or in denial not to of tried a new tactic by now.
Does Hawkins demand from the players always go to him?
Why cant Scott fix this in any way?
It couldn't be that hard.
2. Steven Motlop's non chase...
Hi all. Haven't made a thread on here before but anyway here goes for anyone who wants to talk METAL!! + guitars,drums,tatts and just general metally s**t.
I know you're out there. Back in the day at KP there was always heaps of metal heads walking around & I remember the "AbletticA bow down to...
From all accounts he is doing a great job mentoring the young Crows players.
Also is doing very well at SANFL level.
I wonder if we could get him back in a fitness/coaching/mentoring role, while captaining the VFL team.
I dunno if FD spending cap is in yet but having him (and also Stokes if...
Hi people. First thread I've done here.
Was wandering what people's opinions on Shane O'Bree are. Since he became midfield coach in 2012 it seems we quickly went from one of the best clearance teams to one of the worst. Also our game plan changed from trying to win our own ball in the middle to...
After exceeding even our own expectations of an utterly disgraceful performance on and off field in 2013. Melbourne Football Club is excited to unveil our membership packages for 2014 which we hope you'll find even more sub-par than last year, and we hope to see you at the G next season as we...
Hi all. After jokingly making a post in another thread a couple of days ago, I have been lying awake at night pondering where my life is going and what I really want to do. And now I know!
I want to make a porno. Specifically a porno about Caro, Hird and the Essendon drugs saga.
The way I see...
