Saw this on the games board and thought it looked pretty interesting. Something to do whilst we countdown to the real stuff.
Hope Danger in Texas doesn't mind me using his post? It was explained well.
Okay, here it goes.
This game involves sending heaps of PMs and also luck. 10 DEDICATED...
Are the benefits of training at high altitude as great as they are made out to be? With the Pies now opting to train in Boston, does this mean that they don't think the benefits are that great, or perhaps Buckley simply thinks that a change might be beneficial just because it's different and...
Probably not the flavor of the month for the AFL but if they are serious about stamping out staging, which I assume they must be after pinging Jetta, surely at least two Cats will be given a warning for staging?
PODS also staged but there was sufficient force for him not to be cited.
They...
I know in the past it was considered a professional free kick and resulted in an automatic 50. Does this rule still apply or has it been shelved?
At a crucial time in the 4th quarter of today's game between north and the Tiges Martin broke clear of two North players and was about to charge...
I couldn't give a s**t what he thinks of our players but don't try re create history when you are made to look dumb. He now reckons that he has always rated him highly and even went as far as saying that he had him in his top 50 players in 2010.
I must have imagined all the times I heard...
1st prize of $25,000 is pretty handy coin for a few weeks work and only 3,000 odd participants have entered.
How are people going so far?
Thought this could be a dedicated thread to discuss this comp.
Win and draw predictions only.
This popped up in another thread about Jack Watts but was closed before I had a chance to reply.
I listed the players I thought are better AFL footballers than Watts on career form thus far and a few posters pointed out that we shouldn't be making judgement on any players from 2008.
It got...
The most pleasing aspect of the season thus far, for mine. Certainly more settled (by our standards :o) and becoming a fairly cohesive unit. If we can get Hooker, Pears and Fletcher playing most games together this year they will hold us in pretty good stead.
Hibberd, Heppell, Hardingham &...
Struggled past a couple of mid range teams, just got over the line against a bunch of kids and just doing enough to get past an injury depleted Blues outfit.
Are they the worst 4-0 team we've seen?

Got thinking about this after posting in the "what do you do in the off season" thread.
I used to love a good festival.
What are you all time favs? Doesn't have to be a music festival.
I will kick start it with the Poland Sunrise Festival. Absolutely awesome festival. Brilliant...
It's well documented that Knights wanted Sidebottom because he viewed him as the better player but Dodoro and Keane overuled him because they saw Hurley as the player more important in terms of where out list was at.
Essentially we went needs over picking the best avialable.
What are peoples...
Can't help to admire the Blues and the way they go about it. They were really stiff that they had to travel this year given the amount of games they won but they put up a very honourable performence.
They aren't too far away from causing a heap of damage. It will be interesting to see if they...
Who will win and why? Shaping as an absolute ripper! Obviously I'd love to see the Cats win but the Pies are an ultra impressive unit and would be deserving winners.
I think the 2.50 on offer for the Cats is pretty good value at the minute. I guess we will know more after next week. Injuries...
Will you still respect them as a club?
If they decide to tank they could be looking at potentially 2 top 5 picks and 3 picks in the top 10, in what is said to be a super draft.
Not sure if it is good thing for the culture of the club but that's just me.
What do others think?

I set a challenge to Hawks supporters to put up our Bigfooty accounts for the Ess v Hawks game this Friday.
The Hawks Mod that moderates that main board (grizzyl) clarified the challenge from a moderator point of view and...
As we are fierce rivals on the field I would like to issue a challenge to anybody who is game.
Lifetime ban of Bigfooty account to the loser - Essendon vs Hawthorn, this Friday.
Only criteria is that I will select my opponent. I'm not going to go up against some no name or someones...
Might get potted for this but just throwing it out there.
I know it would be robbing Peter to pay Paul but I think our forward line needs a bit of an overhaul.
Hardingham has been awesome and defence and arguably our best defender this season but I think we should consider throwing him...
Sums up todays performence by the boys.
As Essendon supporters all we've really asked for over the last 5 or so years is that the team shows heart and some pride in the jumper.
Today they did just that. I couldn't care less about the 2 points tbh, just wrapt with the way the boys fought...
At the end of 2010 many people lauded Richmond as having one of the best young lists going around and signalled them as big improvers for 2011. People got caught up in the excitement when they won 4 of 5, or something like that but what did they do for the rest of the year? It was typical...
Those that do (vast majority of BF) should probably read this:

I wonder what he really thinks? Surely he doesn't seriously believe this. Maybe trying to take some attention away from St Kilda?
