Maybe time to revisit the magpie buddy sub-forum. Although I sense most of the claim threads would continue to see little action, which is much like how most of those in the buddy sub-forum ended up.

From page 3 of this thread

First post was about why Port's flags don't count and VFL ones do, which is kind of boring and a still repeated argument. My 4th footy one was posted in February 2007 and is rather humorous in hindsight. Parts of a thread about club mascots turned into a Carlton vs Collingwood slanging match...

I'd go Tom Goodwin from Coburg if we wanted a youngish (25 years), but ready to go ruck. He's an old fashioned bash and crash type who gave Grundy a work out and got his measure early in the VFL year. Ended up winning Coburg's B&F this year. Has been linked to West Coast...

Played a few games in '09 as part of this was good fun and I'd put my hand up to run around again if someone wants to organise it.

Video and stills of a blue Frankston jumper, don't know if it's in addition to the blue variation you have. Not sure if it's technically black collar/cuffs with a white outline like most things on the jumper or a white collar/cuffs with a black stripe through the centre, but the effect is a...

I don't think votes should be retrospectively cast in place of Essendon players, however there is an argument for Essendon players being stripped of votes and others bumped up like olympic medalists. In saying that if a player polls 3 votes in a match and is later suspended for an act in that...

There was a bit of variation in our jumper including more than a few jumpers with white cuffs and a black collar between 1928 and 1939. I think our current clash at least needs the black collar and I'd prefer black cuffs too. Albert Lauder (career span 1926-1931) Bill Libbis (career span...

Thread reads so much better without the obvious troll.

Reckon it's an optical illusion due to the gable being off-centred. Surely someone wouldn't build a house crooked?

Hi Darren, Sorry to hear your wife Deanne has made you cry again.

Hi Darren, Glad you appreciated me updating the board on your redevelopment. Cheers, 1892 If you're going to be a smart-arse at least put the comma in the right place.

Their knock down/rebuild sold at auction and the facade looks pretty true to the original. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/victoria/the-blocks-darren-and-deanne-jolly-sell-their-controversial-kew-east-investment-property-for-more-than-29-million/news-story/9be5f90819e5fbafedcf32c39cbd0d29

The AFL's already given them 5 million towards new digs and are helping them obtain the rest from government funding. Interesting we allowed Swann to access the Holden Centre to gain ideas, it's not something I think we should be doing...

I get where you're coming from Dave and I'm not a fan of rewarding mediocrity either, but they've made a lot of off field changes in recent years to the extent that it's an AFL backed regime in most of the important positions (Swann, Noble, Fagan) that means the AFL aren't handing it out to the...

I think the dogs winning from 7th shows the AFL shouldn't add a playoff for spots in the bottom part of the 8.

Venue and a few other players added to support my breakdown regarding Oxley/Williams/etc too. Also edited into my earlier post.

Boyd looks better up the ground rather than anchored to the goal square and the eye injury to Roughead may have been a blessing in disguise. Going forward for the dogs I'd say Boyd, Roughead, Dickson and Cloke are battling for 3 spots. Crameri is possibly also in the conversation, but his return...

R1 makes an interesting assessment, were we looking to go bigger or was it a matter of circumstances? Backs: Frost, Brown, Reid (inj/unfit), Goldsack (inj/unfit), White (new position), Marsh Forwards: Cloke, Moore, Gault, Howe (inj/unfit), Cox Ruck: Witts, Grundy Our only real options outside...

I opened this up thinking it would relate to Buckley's comments at the member forum that we were basing our game plan off the 'dogs style, however lenny20 you make a great assessment about the change in KPP and our list structure/direction and it makes sense with that shift. I'd add Dickson...

Congrats to the dogs great to see someone different win it. A couple of shocking frees, but overall it was well umpired and didn't impact on the result. If Sydney fans are going to whinge and look for an excuse injuries are a better place, taking in Mills and McVeigh injured didn't pay off...

While this was based on the home and away season you and I were also the only one's who had the dogs topping the ladder, we should have backed them for the flag instead of the minor premiership!

Posted this ages ago in the father son thread, but like this argument I'll rehash it here.

You certainly weren't the only one to leave early about half to two thirds of the crowd had cleared out by time of the final siren. The game was a disaster, so much so I was very tempted to leave early, which is something I've only done twice (both at AFL level). I stuck it out solely because I...

The good thing with the women's AFL side is we've gotten a few welcome threads already this year. The netball signings kick off Monday, so there's a chance we'll get some next week too. :)

Certainly was rumoured to be the case with Manteit last year. Witts' body language coming off the ground strongly suggested he knew it was his last game in black and white, whether it's by his choice or otherwise I don't know. Also Channel 7 stated pre-match tonight that the hawks told Bruest...

I thought we started to come good last year, but we struggled early on this season and reaching the prelim final is a great achievement.

Don't know the reasons behind Goodyear missing, but when I heard he was out my mind went back to last year and the omission of Manteit. Obviously blow outs happen in finals and we were missing a few important players, but perhaps player end of year reviews commenced during the week and were a...

Sorry to hear that Dave, think on the bright side the hawks are done, we'll get a different premier and list management decisions will start trickling through next week where you'll be in your prime. Who would you delist and recruit?
