    MRP / Trib. MRP Lotto thread II

    Absolutely no chance of that. Credibility of the AFL is surely in serious negative territory now. What a ridiculously disgraceful organisation. No wonder they can't work out how to solve the shit show they call opening round. It is so simple. If they want to showcase the Northern States at...

    Unofficial Preview Changes & pre match discussion vs Richmond

    A nightmare made in hell. Surely at the age of 83 its time for Nicholls to retire.

    MRP / Trib. MRP Lotto thread II

    Wow. In my opinion you have a weird view of this matter. Why is it hard for you to accept that maybe, just maybe, a footballer is telling the truth. It doesn't mean that Foot is lying. In the heat of a frantic last quarter, in front of a very passionate home crowd, it is very possible for...

    MRP / Trib. MRP Lotto thread II

    I think that says it all. The club wouldn't take that action unless they thought that Butters (and Wines) were telling the truth. And that doesn't mean that Foot was lying either. Its called not hearing something correctly.

    MRP / Trib. Zak Butters wins the Appeal

    No, that's unfair. He should only umpire the annual grudge match between Sportsbet and Ladbrokes (obviously put your money on Sportsbet in that clash). Assuming they have one, otherwise no, never umpire again at all. :D

    MRP / Trib. MRP Lotto thread II

    No GK, I don't think he said it. I think Foot thought he heard what Butters said, but that doesn't mean he actually heard what was said. Watching the game to me, the decision was a bad one and I can absolutely understand Butters saying something along the lines of "What are you paying that...

    MRP / Trib. Zak Butters wins the Appeal

    I hope that your club fights this as hard as they possibly can. I was watching the game and in my opinion the decision in the first place was a poor one. To be compounded by a 50, was enough for anyone to be outraged. It halted Ports momentum at a very crucial time, when I think you were...

    MRP / Trib. MRP Lotto thread II

    Also I was watching that game and far be it for me to support Port Adelaide, but from what I could see, the initial decision to pay a free was a shocker. The decision then to pay 50 metres, leading to a Saints goal, halted Ports momentum. I think they were a strong chance to run over the...

    MRP / Trib. MRP Lotto thread II

    Once again the AFL presents as a circus. As does the Tribunal. In the absence of any audio - and why was Foots mike turned down? - how can they decide that Butters was guilty of asking Foot "How much are they paying you for this"? The two words paying and this can be used in many different...

    Mod. Notice VALE @The Other Dean (& best wishes McGooley - NMFC BF's behind you)

    If my memory has not failed me, that night at the Prince of Wales, Deano was skulking around out the back, looking like he had nothing to do with the concert whatsoever. That was the calibre of the bloke.

    Mod. Notice VALE @The Other Dean (& best wishes McGooley - NMFC BF's behind you)

    TOD was a wordsmith and in my opinion, a truly great one. I have no idea how to do something like an idea thats just come into mind. That is, to set up a separate thread, on which each day, one of TOD's posts over his journey here, is posted, for us to read and remember and reflect on his...

    Mod. Notice VALE @The Other Dean (& best wishes McGooley - NMFC BF's behind you)

    So sorry to hear of your loss, Finn. I suspect the tears will flow for a long time and that's only as it should be when it comes to your (sadly not so) old man. Your father was a great and wonderful supporter of the NMFC and did so much terrific stuff back in 2007 when the AFL had there evil...

    Player Watch #5: Caleb Daniel - top5 in SBM after 4 rounds?

    I think clubs often expect too much in the first season of players who move after several seasons in another club's system. It nearly always takes time to fit into a new environment, get to know your teammates and coaches, how the team plays and understand the role that the new team wants them...

    I'm just a bit intrigued as to why everyone is queuing up to demonise X, but apparently not to sanction the worst captain in the AFL for belting X in the head in the first place, not to mention the apparently foul mouth he used to express his words at X. Those two traits of mcgrath, hardly...

    Autopsy Autopsy vs Essendon - good grief

    No I did not say that. I said "I will take the win over the GC and Colby every day of the week over Reid." and I am happy to stick by that. We have been through some very grim years as we all know and that win over the GC in the last round of 2023, albeit falsely as it turned out, gave me...

    Autopsy Autopsy vs Essendon - good grief

    I have to concede that would have been very nice, especially after Reid's performance today. However why would we have got Picks 1 and 2 in that draft? Our concessions did not come until after the end of round 1.

    Autopsy Autopsy vs Essendon - good grief

    I had a think about this last night and I came to the conclusion that as a player, McGrath is quite easily the worst Captain of any in the AFL at present. For that matter maybe ever. He wouldn't even qualify for Captain Bloods judgement as a "good ordinary" player. What hope do *essendon have...

    Autopsy Autopsy vs Essendon - good grief

    And if we had got Reid, we would have missed out on McKercher. I for one am very happy that we got Colby rather than Reid. Reid acts like a spoilt child from time to time. No such stupid antics from our boy Colby. In the 2024 Draft we missed out on pick 1 being Sam Lalor. I've seen enough...

    Autopsy Autopsy vs Essendon - good grief

    I for one am going to enjoy the fact that we won. And we also managed to finally beat *them after 10 long years. Many here are disappointed, but if you have a look at the stats, apart from the final margin, we were all over *them. Certainly, the last quarter was very ordinary but thankfully...

    What do you mean? Its called "kick to kick". Every lunch time on our school oval during the football season. Even in the muddiest of winters. But that's a long time ago I suppose.
