    2018 Fixture Discussion

    The double ups are based on... The teams are divided into 3 groups, top 6, middle 6 and bottom 6. If you finish in Top 6 (like us), the breakup is either 3 - 1 - 1 or 2 -2 -1. In other words, only one double up with a bottom 6 side and either 2 or 3 double ups with top 6. If you finish in...

    Rd 1 2018 fixture guess

    I think a fair reason the AFL want to kick off in Rd 1 with a Swans home game is the fact that the NRL start 2 weeks earlier than the AFL and as such already get a leg up by starting first. A few years ago the Swans played Collingwood in a standalone Rd 1 game a week before the season started...

    Past Sam Murray - traded 2017, to Collingwood

    He was a terribly selfish forward in his first year, taking potshots for goal from all over the joint anywhere inside 55m. That probably was the catalyst to move him back in his second year where he became a little more of a team player, used his speed to advantage and looked much more likely...

    Rd 1 2018 fixture guess

    Correct Bazza, confirmed by AFL..

    The 'Sydney' girlfriend was Gretel Tippett, sister of Kurt, so it could be awkward. On top of that, he's ordinary and we have enough ordinary ruckmen as it is. To move on Nankervis one year and bring in an absolute plodder the next makes little sense...

    AFL players selling their GF tickets

    Yep and pretty sure one of them is playing for the Crows on Saturday... EDIT: I was right http://www.abc.net.au/news/2011-10-06/bombers-pair-fined-over-ticket-scandal/3318152?section=afl&site=sport

    Neutrals who are you supporting in the GF?

    Crows, though won't be totally distraught if Tigers win. Just hoping the umps don't get caught up in Tiger fever like they got caught up in the Dogs fairytale last year.....

    Roast The whats giving you the shits about the club thread- negatives only :P

    I rarely get into criticising the club, but one thing that has pissed me off this week is the media stories from Hanners, Parker et al how they are proud the way they got themselves back into the finals blah, blah. It's almost as if they think it was another lot of blokes playing in the first 6...

    Player Watch #7 Harry Cunningham

    When he chose to give it off to Macca on Fri night I said to my missus, "Oh FFS, he is ******* terrified to back himself in". Not 10 secs later Carey said in commentary exactly the same thing "Some blokes want it in their hands to do something about it, some, like Harry, don't" Papers were...

    Game Day Semi Final 2017: Cats vs Swans

    Maybe not a world beater, but still a big loss as the guys coming in for him are much lesser players. For context, Heeney hasn't set the world on fire the past month or two, but he'd still be a loss. Bit of the same same with Guthrie...

    Past Tyrone Leonardis - delisted 2017

    Read the article posted by SSwans2011 about 10 posts back. In short, he was born 10 weeks premmy and barely lived, has had learning disabilities his whole life and was bullied as a result. The list goes on...

    Past Kurt Tippett - retired 2018

    Agree, but if you look at it closely, he's not doing a hell of a lot different now then before, except he's now holding his marks. He's always shown energy, keenness to compete, managed to get into good spots to mark etc. but he had hands like ******* feet. The way his hands were all over the...

    Past Tyrone Leonardis - delisted 2017

    I remember reading that when it first came out and it put the Facebook furore into context for me. A little story. We played Collingwood in Rd 1 of 2016, SCG night game. The ressies played at Blacktown earlier in the day and I was watching the game with grimlock and there were a couple of...

    Trengove was every bit as good as Scully in their first year, but I cannot for one minute imagine Melbourne would have delisted him if there was even a skerrick of hope that he can get back to somewhere like his best. Unfortunate for him, but he is obviously shot and I'd rather use the...

    Pretty sure he was running 3rd in the B&F when he was injured. Couldn't be arsed finding the thread that followed voting in the B&F night last year, but it will be in there, as a lot of us non-haters were commenting on it...

    My Deano memories are going long from centre wing against Richmond with a minute left on the clock and getting slammed by all and sundry for not going short to Buddy. Then 2 weeks later with a minute on the clock from centre wing goes short to Tom Mitchell who stands there like a *******...
