    Hi all Couldn't find a membership thread for next year. I called up the club this morning and signed up my 2019 membership. Was on hold for 10 mins and the guy said they were a bit busy which is a good sign. This will be my 12th year as a member. 2019 pricing the same as 2018 which is a plus...

    Hawks new recruits - who will offer more?

    Much has been said about the Hawks boom recruits but you also need to remember that they are getting J. Roughead back. Will the two forwards or the two midfielders give more to the side this year??

    Traded Tom Bell [traded w/ #41 to Brisbane for #21 and #60]

    Tweet from Superfooty saying that Tom Bell may also request a trade at the end of the 2015 season. Would be a massive blow for the Blues. one of the shining lights for them this year.

    Henderson requests a trade - Won't play for Carlton again

    The main questions I have - Will any club apart from Geelong have a chance of getting him? - What will Geelong have to give up? - How much will he be paid per year? http://www.afl.com.au/news/2015-08-20/henderson-requests-a-trade-wont-play-again-this-year

    Analysis State of the game

    The fixture is a concern. The AFL isn't going to bow down and give us less games so the 17 round season won't work. IMO what we need to get to is a 20 team league (team in Tassie and another team in WA) then play each team once a year with an extented finals series (6 weeks). It will give us...

    VFL Past #65: Shaun McKernan 🐴 - Returns to the Dons

    I think this is a great pick up. We needed a ruck backup. He is mobile, fit enough and we paid nothing for him.

    Changes vs West Coast (IN: NLM, Bellchambers, Myers | OUT: Dyson, Hurley, Pears)

    I suspect we can go in unchanged. My only concern is I want a fit & firing Hurley for the finals. If he can't get over the calf and blisters issue I would be happy resting him this week. Out : Hurley, In : Coyler. We need a hell of a lot of run for PS. Remember Freo killed us with spread last...

    Would Essendon have won if Adelaide didn't get the two injuries?

    It was an awesome win last night but I wanted to see if anyone else thinks we wouldn't of got close if Ade didn't get those injuries to Graham Johncock and Matthew Jaensch? Johncock had a super first quarter.

    Who will win our B/F this year?

    With Watson going down again, I doubt he will play enough games to win the B/F. The winner I think will be someone who ends up playing half decent over most if not all our games. Some current stats to look at TotalAverage Per GameTotal KicksBrent Stanton183Kicks Per GameBrent...

    I HATE ticketmaster's online site

    I wanted to b*tch about the current issues I am still having with the ticketmaster website. I am a current AFL member and EVERY time I try and buy tickets online through ticketmaster I have the same issue. I get to the point where I have selected the seats I would like, I put in my credit...

    Would you rather a win in the NAB cup final, or a win Round 1?

    Simple question really, would you rather the Dons get up against the Pies or the Bulldogs if you could only pick one. I'm really asking which game you think it more important. Both have some positives. Win against the Pies - Will give the team confidence that they can match it with anyone in...

    Stanton Playing in the backline

    For pretty much the whole Kanga's game Brent started in the defensive 50. When there was an interchange in the North's forward line he did push forward. I was wondering if anyone else noticed this at the game? Does anyone know the reason behind it? With Wells out I thought it would of been a...

    Regarding NLM

    I am amazed at times that he continues to get games for us. The free kick against him in the first quarter was stupid and cost us a goal, yet I didn't even see the runner to out to him. I counted three handballs he had that missed their target (all under no pressure) and a couple more with...

    Our Top Ten Picks - How many 200 game players

    I was thinking about this last night, out of the top ten picks we have had recently, how many will get to the 200 game mark? Personally I think there is a change that none of them will, which is quite a shock. For us to have such a promising young list, it shows to me that 1 - We have done...

    Sen - The Run Home - Most Annoying Regular

    I have made the decision to give listening to the run home because it has changed from talking sports a couple of years ago to a group of 20 odd annoying old men who put on crap voices and people plugging their twenty20 match or lawn bowl night. Personally the person who gets on my nerves the...

    Bachar Houli - The next big thing?

    I know we have a young team and a lot has been talked about Myers, Hurley Reimers and co, but I can't help but think that Houli is our shinning light. There is so much to like about the kid 1) Great clearence work 2) Great vision 3) Huge kick - He seemed to over kick a lot of kicks early in his...
