In today's footy where the umpies are bigger than the game, where the AFL controls the game so much that the umpires have no feel for the game, where a player gets fined for dacking a player, where talking back is considered dissent by the softies, where an umpire 40M away can over-rule the...
Apparently he is seeking out Vic clubs, would you consider him an option, considering the 'Hail Storm' is set to retire and the BB experiment being not good enough against Goldy etc
I am interested to know, if you believe that the current draft system where the NSW/QLD clubs have the exclusive rights to the players in their states, before anyone else and yet can still pick whomever they want outside of their states.
Whilst the rest of the competition cannot touch the...
After watching Port dive and hand ball over the head last week, really had me wondering.
Since when has hand balling over the head not been deemed a 'throw'?
Don't get me wrong, if they get away with it, good on you but in my view at least 2 or 3 of those were throws.
Loving this article, stating the facts about the AFL and its oppressing bloated President and sniffling little big man Anderson...I hope the players, coaches and industry representatives make a stand...:thumbsu:
THERE is no room at football's top level for a dictatorship and Andrew Demetriou...
After letting the Pelican go, he has continued the NZ work for the Saints.
Further more on top of this innovation, he can start raiding our players next year.
Do you think that letting him go was a mistake?
I for one do and think the club got it wrong, in fact I think they also...
I ask you?
Reading the AFL game preview it appears Freo are favourites, so does that make us not good enough? at Launie or just the squad? or are Freo now Premiership contenders after Ross' boring shite game plan has been implemented?
All the Best Laddo, you served the club so well over the years, we will miss your precision and skill.
So many memories, the most recent being against the Nuff Nuff's without your resolute attack on the footy with minutes to go, we would of lost :thumbsu:
That's right folks, our Premiership FB who everyone seems to have forgotten about.
All this bluster about chasing a gorilla and a key backman for trade week, ask yourself why?
Our back 6 this year was 3rd best in the league this without Gillie and Strats.
Mark my words with a settled back 6...
For mine, clearly Essendon...didn't fire a shot really and were lucky to make it...realistically North or Richmond would of provided a far better contest with a lot more ticker..
Both the Swans and Carlton were deserving of a birth..
Line-up Round 17 -
Burgers Gibbo Pops
Stratts Shoey Birch
Smith Mitchell Savage
Lewis Franklin Ozzy
Hale Rough Rioli
Bails, Hodge, Sewell
Int. Shiels, Changa, Goo and Suckers
Good luck Lads, I hope you kick the byes arse :thumbsu: :D
Show us your team...
You bet ya, if that is the best the Pies can dish up with a full list, minus McCaffer the super star (hahaha) then they will be watching their backs big time.
I sincerely hope we play those ****ers in September because they are not that good...bring it on :thumbsu:
I was having a discussion on the weekend about the positioning of umpires in todays game and that the old structure/ or placement of them perhaps need modifying.
Do you notice that more and more throws, head high tackles, in-correct disposals etc are being missed? they always appear to be...
How is this for classic HUN.....no wonder, this is renound for being such a s**t paper :o
Ladson has been bashing down the door at Box Hill Hawks for weeks now - he put in another best on ground performance at the weekend, but might struggle to get in while the Hawks are being forced to make...
Last week it was Cyrils turn for a week-off for a silly tummy tap.... 1 Weeks Holiday for a minor impact, mid-rift blow (remembering the head is sacrosanct)
This week Browny with his bad track record at the tribunal, dishes out an old fashioned elbow which knocked Ward for out for second...
What are peoples thoughts on Freo in 2011?
I have a view that they will struggle to emulate 2010 due to injury and fatigue after a fair premiership tilt.
They played some super footy last year much like the Hawks in 2008 but being young and lacking demographic depth it could be a...
Gidday Lads and Ladettes,
I come in peace :)
Sorry to intrude, however we have an opportunity in February to unite and barrack against our common enemy "The Spooners" :thumbsu:
I have several Docker friends and a large group of us are heading to Subi to not only watch a great game between...
Seriously funny stuff, Sooky has a go at 2 guy's giving him curry about him and his double adaptor mates nude photo's :D

Riewoldt retaliated to jibes from two men who...
After discussing this in another thread, it became clear within that thread that Carlturd are renown for being a team of absolute ****en marshmellows.
Therefore a thread to make this absolute by the Bay is a must...:cool:
for mine the carraway seeds of the AFL are Carltank, everywhere...
Hello All and Sundry,
I am in the process of adopting policy on tree retention on private land and am looking for idea's/thoughts etc in ways to encourage this.
For instance beating developers over the head with a stick is not the answer, yes they have to be regulated and controlled but...
An interesting video on what is going on in England as we speak.....

I am interested in your thoughts?
I am concerned about the next generation(s) and what legacy we leave behind for them...
What a tosser, he has threatened retirement if he doesn't get a trade to the Pies....is this knob for real!
Was he ever that good, Collingwood couldn't wait to off-load the log...fair crack of the whip, what a hissy fit from a true blue shirt lifter :o
Thank god I say, retire you SPUD...
Mods move/delete this if need be?
anyway I have some questions I would like answered or posters to provide some thoughts on -
1) Why did we fly over on Friday? not Thursday and give time for the players to acclimatise and to be able to have a proper run around to blow the cob webs off...
At the gates of the 'G' united we stand,
On the isle where the nations throng,
We call them 'scum of the earth'
so vile, that you involuntary dry retch upon there sight,
die you scum, die
Go Hawks :thumbsu:
After todays game...NO
the usual suspects are soft as butter and 'front running' seems to be a title that springs to mind when ever that clubs named is mentioned..
take nothing away from the Dee's they played some great footy using the corridor, whilst the Pies seemed more intent on going...
Straight off the bat, I do not want a 'bag Beau Dowler' thread, I like the kid but I do have a query....
As he is not getting a seniors gig and is playing ordinary footy at BH from all reports, where does this leave his career???
Surely his trade value decreases due to the aforementioned...
Yep, drop it here -
Roughie, mid air shot....WTF
Suckling, holding the ball (last Quarter) when clearly he had no attempt to dispose of it and McKinley (Hack) gets a gift goal......WTF
Guerra, injured hammy....WTF (We haven't shot a Chinaman, we have nuked a bus load of them)
Playing Cyril...
Talking last night after the latest debacle in relation to our one dimensional game plan...
It is great that we can play zones, however this should only be one string to our bow, we also need to know how to play 'man on man', how to cluster, how to flood, even Buddy's box (bring that back), how...
