Following on from fightingfury_88's fantastic work of season's past! I thought it would be a good idea to get this up and going again. I will drip feed these initial rankings as the day/week goes on and update them weekly. ROUND 1: RICHMOND 14.8 (92) def CARLTON 12.11 (83) GOALS Richmond...

Does no one understand the sliding rule? Stupid AFL website and commentators lambasting Cotchin. This is a slide: Thomas goes LEGS first This is a slide: Goodes goes LEGS first. This is not a slide...

Feel free to move this mods. Do we reckon Swan or Pendlebury for more Brownlow votes? Personally I think Swan.... Mod Edit: created new thread from post and added poll

There....

#1 Greater Western Sydney - Lachlan Whitfield (184 cm, 74 kg) - 18 years old. “Classy medium midfielder with rare awareness and decision-making ability complemented by skills either side with hands and feet. Is naturally gifted with speed and endurance and is strong overhead." No secrets...

Heard he's on holiday. I don't want him to go. But just curious how we'd structure up without him?

Strong rumours Port Adelaide FC have offered Brendan a one-year deal.

Willie Wheeler, Pat Contin (Again) and Dylan Murphy. Surely these guys are in serious contention for spots on our rookie list next season?

Our little pocket dynamo cannot seem to overcome his injuries, and biasness aside is one of the better clearance midfielders in the comp when fully fit. Also he is a free agent, so he may end up walking (being told to walk) to another club. I was wondering what you guys think wouold be...

Mods feel free to lock. But jumper number changes? I could see Ellis taking #5 next year. And O'Hanlon moving up to say, 22?

My Current Brownlow Medal Standings (Round 16) 1. Scott Thompson (ADEL) - 28 votes 2. Jobe Watson (ESS) - 20 votes =3. Lance Franklin (HAW), Scott Pendlebury (COLL), Matthew Boyd (WBD) - 18 votes =6. Dane Swan (COLL), Gary Ablett (GCS) - 17 votes =8. Joel Selwood (GEEL), Brent Stanton (ESS), Sam...

I feel we get stung more than other clubs. Record lengths between AFL games. -Cousins (doesn't count, but proves my point) - Foley, Coughlan, Brown, Moore Now Astbury. Possibly Grimes and Foley again. Why is it always the good players?

Not really one for individual awards, although they are nice to see, Jack has a big chance to bridge the gap on Buddy and get himself back in the Coleman Medal race. It starts this week against the Suns. GO JACK!

I'm not sold on the form of Houli/Batch/Dea but they will obviously keep their spots. If Griffiths is injured Moore comes in (shut up Post is not a defender and no Derickx and McGuane will not play back to accommodate the lovechild). Other than that I'd say: Out: White (susp.), A. Maric In...

Vickery gone for the season. We can now elevate another rookie. Turner? No. Not yet. Wright/Darrou? If I see another defender, I will puke? Heslin? Obviously not. Verrier? He has my vote.

I find it rather insulting that the great Western Bulldogs have not opened up an E.J. Whitten Legends game thread, couldn't care If there is one on the main AFL thread - I haven't checked - It should be here. . So I thought I'd do it out of respect for the great man, and your board could do with...

In my honest personal opinion: Miller (r) - Just on the basis of, and despite consistency when playing, Elton getting a game, and only being a last resort option when someone else is injured i.e. Vickery and may be forced into retirement. Post - The same as above, no proven track record...

7 wins 5 losses 120% and somewhere between 7-9 on the ladder after Round 13. Am I getting too far ahead of myself? v St Kilda - no one defender can stop Jack - game will be a battle of the midfield - they have no ruckman Tiges by 30 points. v Fremantle - They don't travel...

Someone comes out for Batch, probably mini maric, ellis a possibility too. Height not an issue, STK won't win a hitout all day Maric & Vickery vs Koschitzke & Blake.

Minson, Griffin, Warnock, West, Jamar (free agent) Do we want any of these? As far as we're all concerned one of Derickx/Browne/Graham is going. One of these would be a handy second ruck. :thumbsu:or:thumbsd:

Anyone else feel like we are missing him at the moment. Mid sized forward would be ideal under the current circumstances.:confused:

here's mine: Shane Watson David Warner Shaun Marsh/Travis Birt Ricky Ponting Michael Clarke Michael Hussey Matthew Wade James Pattinson Brett Lee Ryan Harris Xavier Doherty/Nathan Lyon David Hussey, Callum Ferguson, Mitchell Starc all in the midst as well.

Which of the rookies should we keep next season, delist, upgrade etc. Happy discussioning :P I am of the belief that Hislop, Hicks and Contin should be moved on. Miller and/or O'Rielly should be elevated Westhoff, Jakobi retained.

Out of favour ... thankyou very much :rolleyes:

Tivendale's gone so that's one less we have to worry about but we still have the following players to consider. Andrew Raines: Wonderful and a much required player at the RFC but may find it hard to weasel back into the starting 22. IMO we keep him but he also looms as trade currency...

I'm interested to know which ruckmen are up for grabs at season's end or who we can afford., Any ideas

I've gone through the fixture starting from the End of saturday rd 9 and done tips if im correct the ladder will be as following at the end of 08 1 HAW 21-1-0 (84) 2 GEEL 21-1-0 (84) 3 WBD 17-4-1 (70) 4 ADEL 16-6-0 (64) 5 BRIS 15-7-0 (60) 6 COLL 14-8-0 (56) 7 SYD 13-8-1 (54) 8 PORT...
