I'm after a bit of a hand with the final ladder positions at the end of the finals series.
The reason being is that pre-season I got together with a few mates and we all wrote down our ladder predictions we are catching up over a few beers tonight to watch the draft and reconcile our...
A hobby of mine is collecting Gig Posters.
I started out collecting the posters of gigs that I've attended over the years here in Melbourne. When I had pretty much collected every available gig poster of concerts I attended my hobby expanded to purchasing gig posters of bands I've seen live...
If Firrito and Thompson get suspended our backline stocks will be non existent against the Crows next week especially with Grima, Tippett, McMillan and Delaney all on the injured list.
Surely Ayden Kennedy will make his debut this week:rolleyes:
Hey lads,
It's no coincidence that our seasons fortunes have turned with our ability to take a mark inside the forward Fiddy.
Between Rd 13 -16 our marking forwards have scored 33 of 75 goals Petrie (13), Hansen (10) and Tarrant (10) which is by my reckoning 44% of our goals.
Kicking to...
My understanding is that he wants to remain in Western Australia.
I wonder if the NMFC would consider relocating to W.A for the specific purpose of recruiting Leon?
The main reason I went to training today was to buy a "Boomer 321 Guernsey" with the hope of getting it signed by the man himself. Mission accomplished :thumbsu: I plan on donating it to my son's football club as part of the end of the season dinner/auction
Not really much to report about...

I received a new letter and proxy form in the mail today from Peter De Rauch dated 27/1/11.
Wondering if all members received this one or just those that returned the proxy form from his first mail out?
Gold Coast will be looking to trade at least a couple of their first round draft picks for experienced players.
David Hale and Gavin Urquhart who are both Queenslanders would currently be worth more to a fledgling team like GC than they are to NMFC.
As individuals I estimate that Hale...
I had no idea that the Gold Coast had the first 5 picks in the Rookie Draft making our first pick #9. Perhaps GC will pick up Majak Daw before we get the chance?

Regardless of the result tomorrow I will forever remember 2009 as the year of the Sleeve Tatt.....
I can think of 4 players who emerged from the shadows of the 2008 season with sleeve tattoos

For prosperity reasons I'll also count the 1/2 assed work...
Hey Pikey,
Don't bother thinly spreading your wisdom about the draft on multiple threads throughout this board.
Just post your thoughts on the draft here on this thread especially designed for you :thumbsu:
Cheers in advance.
I arrived at about 1.50pm and stayed until the boys went into the clubrooms about 40 mins later. It was raining pretty heavy when I arrived and continued to rain for the rest of the session.
The whole squad was huddled together around a white board in the middle of the ground when I got...
Both WA sides are re-building their midfield's:
WCE have lost Judd and Cousins, Braun has announced he will retire at the end of the year. Fletcher will probably do likewise and Kerr's name just keeps popping up in trade talk.
Likewise. Freeo who have have lost their midfield mainstays of...
Hypothetically speaking:
If the club was celebrating it's centenary this year who from our current squad would make the team and who from the team of the century would miss out?
NORTH MELBOURNE TEAM OF THE CENTURY
B: Glenn Archer, David Dench, Michael Martyn
HB: John Rantall, Ross...
Last week the AFL confirmed the initial draft concessions for the entry of the Gold Coast franchise they are:
Access to the 20 best Queensland juniors over the next 3 years. Further concessions will be announced before the end of the season I've read in the papers that the AFL are also...
Wayne Carey will appear on Andrew Denton's Enough Rope at 9:35pm on Monday 31st March (ABC TV).
Denton is a world class interviewer who isn't scared to ask the hard questions can imagine his first question as something along the lines of
"Where did it all go wrong Wayne".
Must see TV.
I love these little treasures.
I purchased one a few years back and found that it had a small moth embedded in the chocolate. I rang Cadbury to complain and they promptly sent me out a box containing 48 of the gems. I devoured them in a few short days and ever since I've been hooked. I can't...

A guy is sitting in the outer during the Grand Final.
It's 1/2 time and he can't believe that the seat next to him is still vacant.
He starts up a conversation with the guy sitting on the other side of the vacant seat "This is incredible" he says, "Who in...
I went to bed last night thinking about how important a Grand Final birth is to our future in Melbourne.
Surely a Grand Final birth will equal less churn of members, I can see old members will jumping back on board in their droves as well as giving added incentive for non member supporters to...
Was all prepared to have 2 phones on the go as well as being logged onto the ticketmaster website to register for the Grand Final tickets (priority 2) this morning. Couldn't believe it when I got through on my first dial up.
I never got a letter from the club about the process/need to...
