Terrible decision.

13 touches (many in the guts) in a quarter and five minutes and a huge reason we got over the line. Should be a lock for the week 1 finals rising star nomination.

Even though it is still a few weeks away I was wondering who people think will likely make way for Trengove? Jonas and Hombsch deserve to hold their place. Carlile is questionable but he generally takes the best forward and obviously people at the club hold him in high esteem to sign him on a...

So after 9 rounds Wingard is clearly our most improved player but is he also a chance to take home the best and fairest? His season continues to be underrated, he is just about our best player already. Can anyone remember someone winning both in the same season before? Either way I'll never...

With no guarantees with cheap ruckman this year, is it a stupid tactic in rucks to pick Cox and then all three of Jolly, White and Currie? At least one of the Sydney ruckman have to play every week, and possibly/probably two. The only fly in the ointment I can see is if Goodes pinch hits as...

I've seen a few posts suggesting our key back's aren't progressing as well we would like, Chaplin is overrated etc., so thought I would compare us to another side with young players holding down key position in defence, Adelaide. Now Bock is said to be having an All-Australian year. He is 25...

Halfway through the year, it says a huge amount about our season that I can't think of one player that would be within a bull's roar of All-Australian honours. 2008 is shaping up to be a dark year :(

Will Sandilands keep up these SC numbers? Is upgrading Simmonds feasible? Averaging 40 less than Sandilands and only seems to be getting worse? Is he playing injured? Initially I thought Simmonds would be my ruck all year, but the possible point improvement is hard to ignore.

Will drop below 400k in the next couple of weeks. Only two poor scores have come against Sydney who he wont play again. Is he streets ahead of any other midfielder around the same price? We're talking about the guy who has probably scored the most points of anyone in the last 3 and a half years.

Is he a steal at under 600k this year? Last year he started at $723k and people still had him. I was wondering what everyone's thoughts were on him at $597k? Can he be relied on to deliver 20-22 games in a season?

SE Bond 27.5 AH Gray 28.8 MG Johnson 28.9 GI Allott 29.3 The best ODI strike rates of all time with a qualification of 1000 balls. After 16 ODI's and 801 balls Tait's strike rate is 25.8. Discuss.

Apologies if there is already a thread for this but who does everyone think will make up our 11 for the first game? Barring injury, will it be the same 11 that beat India? I think Tait should come in, but I'm biased. Will Hopes keep getting a game? Will Hodge finally get dropped? Who else is...

I'm not sexist, but why on earth is there women commentating on the cricket :confused: And did anyone see that Pakistani calling Mark Gillespie "Jason Gillespie" earlier, more than once. This coverage is so bad it's just funny.

:eek: Sri Lankan first-class player Dhanuka Pathirana scored a remarkable 277 off 72 balls in a Twenty20 match in Lancashire's Saddleworth League to steer his Austerlands side to 366 for 2 and an easy win over Droylsden. Pathirana smashed 29 sixes and 18 fours in his onslaught. "Everything...

Anyone know what the deal is with these two injuries? Seeing Brogan hobble off nearly broke my heart in the last quarter, as we are screwed if he is out. :thumbsd:

Was just about best on ground today, without him and Westhoff we would have lost. 28 touches and 2 goals, wow. Rising star nomination absolutely in the bag. :thumbsu:

What do you guys think? It doesnt look very good :thumbsd:

After that debacle last night I would be devastated if we do not see Travis Boak debut and Carlile given regular gametime in the next couple of weeks. I'd expect Choco to wheel out the old "rebuilding" chestnut to keep the hounds at bay for the rest of the season, so if that's the case let's see...

Goodes has been rubbish and is down to 401k after averaging 120 last year. Incredibly cheap, do you guys think he can come good in the second part of the year? If he does, he is capable of amassing massive points and it would be one of the pick ups of the season. Thoughts?

Thanks to Geelong, Port Adelaide are now top after 7 rounds :thumbsu: What a great job by Choco and the boys!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMgy5IBM-J8 Me and a few mates are giving making an AFL youtube show a crack. Will be using a better camera for future, but was a bit of fun. Have a look, let us know what you think :thumbsu:

I thought this was a predictable thread, so why not start it now. Presuming Brogan has a significant lay off wo de we bring in? All 3 are raw, and I must admit I'm not too sure who is higher in the pecking order. I did notice Choco had some words of praise for Deluca's SANFL form recently...
