In previous years an example would be Shane Crawford's final game in his long career ending in the unlikely 2008 premiership win. This year some of the ones that come to mind... From Richmond there's the Martin story... One of the greatest finals players of all time coming back on the eve of...

Given that our team of #brave, blue collar, underdogs will be the overwhelming sentimental favourites this week I thought it might be a good idea to dedicate a thread to all the well wishers so that our other threads don't get overrun with the influx of support. Neutral fans, please post your...

I'm taking my 2 year old for his 2nd game today so I probably won't see much of the actual game. Still looking forward to a few things though: Seeing how Mitchell goes as the main inside mid Seeing if Buddy can wrap up the coleman Seeing us cement top 2 Getting another look at Biggs Possibly...

We've clearly pissed off AFL house by snatching Buddy away from GWS so what happens now? Will the COLA be gradualy reduced? Gradually phased out completely? Immediately reduced/scrapped? Personally I think the fairest course of action would be to gradually reduce it over a period of 2 or 3...

Great win tonight!!!! But let's not forget that you're a filthy cheating bunch of turds. Justice will be served next Sunday as we smash the s**t out of your pathetic bottom 10 dwelling, judless shitheap. You will become our bitches once again. And if any of you gutless dickheads...

Toughest tip of the round for me. North Melbourne are favorites with the bookies but the loss of Ziebell will hurt and Richmond are in better form. I've changed my tip 3 times already. Who will win and why?

Really isn't having the kind of impact I'd expect from him this season. Is he unfit? Still carrying a niggle? He's hardly been poor but I really expected that he'd be one of our top 4-5 players this year. He seems to go through entire quarters of football almost unnoticed.

Hasn't had any standout games so far this season but as a 19 year old kid holding down the toughest position in footy it's a well deserved reward for consistent effort.

The writing is well and truly on the wall for north now. They decided to stay and fight but realised all too late that they have neither the balls, nor the talent to compete with lowly Brisbane, let alone fight the massive uphill battle they face just to stay alive. In the early 90's North...

I was just reading a few posts by St Kilda supporters venting their frustrations at some of their players and the name Dempster came up. It's been acknowledged many times before how well we've done to trade in the players we have but it got me thinking about the players we've let go as well...

In this thread we post the coolest movie characters ever seen. Whether they be the lead or a small part. Doc Holiday - Tombstone (Val Kilmer) Dignam - The Departed (Mark Wahlberg) Jules Winfield - Pulp Fiction (Samuel L Jackson)

I assume many of you would have received this via email already but for those who haven't seen it..... From: Shannon Walkley Date: Monday 21 June 2010 9.15am To: David Thorne Subject: Poster Hi I opened the screen door yesterday and my cat got out and has been missing since then...

http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/afl-ponders-east-coast-league-20091124-j8bg.html I think it's an excellent idea. Not only will it see our reserves playing against better quality opposition, it will provide a higher quality competition to draft young talent from and strengthen the code in...

Just thought I'd let you guys know that Hooley is in hospital recovering after an operation, and I'm sure she'd love to read some nice messages from her TLS friends when she gets out. Get well soon:thumbsu:

Kennedy and McGlynn to join for picks: 39 46 & 70. http://www.hawthornfc.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/4742/newsid/85880/default.aspx

Since Bedders asked what was happening with the POTY I assume everyone else probably misses the final tallies that we put at the end of each POTY thread so here's the mid season rankings. I think the ratings highlight that the swans board posters probably have a better idea than most of the...

It wasn't that long ago that this guy was the scapegoat after every single loss. Many of you said he was a liability to the team, that he would never make it as a footballer and demanded he be de-listed/traded. A gangly freak he may be, but last night he stood up in the absence of Bolton and...

Okay this is frustrating the hell out of me..... My PC is a few years old now and for the last week or so whenever I get home from work and try and turn it on nothing happens, no power. The first time this happened I came back to it an hour or so later, hit the button and bang! It starts up...

Hey guys, I've been working in IT for 5 years now doing deskside support for a large company and although it's been good for a while I'm becoming increasingly bored with it and I'm now looking for a change. When I was at uni I really enjoyed programming, I did a little C++, Java and .net but...

Just thought I'd get in early..... Probably cemented his place in the team today and the comparisons to Lewis are justified IMO. With another season or two under his belt it looks like the Hawks could have another star on their hands. I know he was delisted and redrafted, how old is he?

You know the drill......... POTY Eligible: Barlow, Bird, Jack, Meredith, White, Thornton

http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/story/0,22049,25345218-5017479,00.html A nice backhanded swipe at our opponents disguised as an article.

Yeah, so whats the go? I remember SouthSwans saying something about not being able to do the POTY any more due to a chronic addiction to masturbation or something similar. I think we should keep voting after each game until either SS gets a handle on his problem or someone else steps up to...

I was looking for swans vids on youtube and came across this. I remember hearing a replay of this call way back in 05 and loved it. Matched up with the footage just makes it even better and I'm sure if you're like me you've probably watched this replay with the normal commentary close to 5,000...

He's only 23 and therefore should still be improving. He's most likely going to be copping a heavy tag each week this year but given he is probably one of the fittest players in the league I think he can deal with the extra attention. One thing I noticed last season is that he seems to have...

Not necessarily in terms of importance (otherwise LRT would be higher) but how well you think they do at the role asked of them. I'm only listing players who spend the majority of their time in defense. The first 3 are pretty clear cut for me but from 4-7 it's pretty close and I really could...

Just wondering what songs people like to listen to when going through a break up or similar shitty situation. I'm talking about the kind of stuff that lifts you up off the dirt rather than the kind of stuff that makes it worse.
