Man, last time I posted regularly on Bay 13 (2010 or so I think) this place used to balance blatant oxygen-deprived posters with genuine quality like Biffinator, Stronzo and oogac who still is a star. Yes, it was always interspersed with threads about West Horsham that nobody cares about and WA...

The surface at the SCG tonight is nothing short of a disgrace, and unfit for AFL football. The drainage is horrendous and sub standard, the lack of roof a disgrace, and the presence of a pitch square simply insulting. When will the Swans be forced to upgrade to a real stadium such as Manuka...

...Melbourne supporters. That's right. By their own logic, that considered Brad Green a champion of the game despite being a front-running squib who beat up on s**t teams, NicNat is a champion of the game. What criteria is this? By making the extended AA squad. As Nic has now done this...

Learned, unlearned and downright mouthbreathing folk of Bay 13, It has come to the attention of a few that a certain poster (who shall remain nameless, this is not to slag his lack of masculinity) had some difficulties in changing a car tyre recently, so in the interests of social research...

Sitting back now, and looking at how things have unfolded this season so far, did the hierarchy at Geelong make the wrong choice after the 2010 season, when they appointed Chris Scott? Now, before everyone jumps down my throat, think about it. We had Sando all of last year (except the last two...

Just wanted to raise a topic that seems to come up semi-regularly in regards to people (generally politicians, e.g. Gillard) supposedly 'selling out' their values of earlier in their life in order to further their career. What differentiates 'selling out' from merely changing views as a result...

Just read this piece on Australia's welfare state, and how it compares with the rest of the OECD, and it actually comes out as the most 'target efficient' of any country in the OECD. The use of means testing, and other means of targeting allows the system to distribute much more to the poor than...

Just one day. You get to assume the body/mind/gut of Demetriou, at the end of the day you revert to your own body. What do you do? Me, I'd shoot Anderson, then myself.

Esteemed gentlemen of the Bay (and all you useless flogs), sheilas and any gender confused individuals, there seems to be something afoot at Arden Street. No, I am not going to take the easy option and can North for being poor (lol, Norf is poor y'all), but look at their on-field exploits. The...

That's right ladies(maybe vonn has wandered across), gentlemen (Biff, Corpy, SLF?) and all you other freaks of nature (myself included), this will draw the spotlight on quite possibly the worst on-field leader in the league. No, its not Chris Judd I hear you ask, though he probably couldn't lead...

This is a valid question, especially in light of Daniel Chick's recent arrest for trafficing certain substances which were always rumoured to be around West Coast in the early 90's. Let's look at exactly what the old bastard has achieved since he began coaching Footscray in the 80's. The most...

As it is currently rumoured, probably horseshit most likely, Michael Rischitelli is to be part of a deal to get Fev to Brisbane, and Rischitelli to Rape Tank. So, the burning question is, how long will his eyesight last being around Captain Eye-Gouge on a more regular basis? I think they will...

Members of the MFB, I need you. Are Melbourne becoming the Diet-Carlton of the AFL? Think about it, there are some appalling similarities with these two rabbles. Both have been tanking harder than Rommel at Tobruk this decade, and both have wasted draft picks, with Melbourne selecting Watts...

That's right you interstate heathens. All your backward-arse inbred leagues can crap on about all their history, creed, homosexuality (Fremantle-I'm looking at you) as much as they like, but it doesn't count for s**t. The real flags are won in the VFL/AFL (not the faggy-arsed VFL that currently...

Inspired by the "Bay13 is the Main board" thread-cheers Ant. Simple question-who here has been banned from Fred's lair? I know I was, but certain circumstances resulted in the ban being lifted, after about 5 months or so-Baz, I know you're banned, so who else is?

It seems to me a number of serious flogs around here are forgetting their place, and just as horrifying, there is a lack of derision howled toward Carltank. It is time the Bay stopped worrying about deciding who is worse, a giant athlete from Fiji or a Justin Westoff clone from Brighton, and...

Well, its something we've all known for ages, but Jade Rawlings has come out and publicly stated that their are 'Cultural Issues" at Tigerland. He has stated that they didn't want to play for Cuzz's 250th, and that the playing group is a bunch of soft, spineless pack of sooks. But what other...

Fairly simple question, on face value at least. Do you beleive in God, or some form of deity? For me personally, I believe there is something greater than us out there, not sure exactly what that is, but I'm torn between 'God' and the earth goddess 'Gaea' deities. THoughts?

Simple question really. What should clubs have as mascots? And which companies should sponsor them? Should Hawthorn be sponsored by KFC, in reference to their hangover and fat list? Should Fremantly be sponsored by Airbus A330 autopilot, which fails regularly? Personally, I think this suits...

I come in peace. Take me to your leader. Don't stress out too greatly about (most likely) missing out on the finals this year guys, and I am genuinely sorry for the comp, in not having you there, but having such spud teams as Carlton and Essendon there. I feel this year may be your '2006'...

In light of Karmichael Hunt's switch to the GC, which other players could conceivably switch sports? Could Bryce Gibbs make a go for it in Synchronised Swimming? Matthew Lloyd become an Olympic Diver? Mark Blake become a high-jump stand?

Sorry if this has been done before-couldn't find it. But if you could pick 5 people to have dinner with-who would it be? Personally, I'd have the following. V.I. Lenin CHe Guevara Adam Smith Oscar Wilde Adolf Hitler

Simple question really. Right now, with current lineups (assume VR have a singer-can take it as Weiland if you so like), who would you rather see? Personally, as brilliant as Axl is, I'd take Revolver. I generally like to watch the musicans when I go-so seeing Slash, Kischner, Duff and Matt...

OK, lets **** trade week off-it's s**t and nothing ever happens. This thread is a place where we can propose trades for anything we like. Just to make it interesting-try not to trade exclusively with Fremantle, and continually bend them over like a woman at a party ran by a certain inner-city...

I couldn't find a thread on this_if there is, mods please get rid of this one. I assume most of you heard Bomber say that they had tossed up 'leaving some in the tank' on Sunday. What are your thoughts? I can see the value, but I would also like to see a statement made. Also, is Bomber just...

Last night on the news, there was vision of Fev trying his recently-operated hand (injured as a result of wanking cramp when he was booted out of home) at lacrosse. Normally, this is boring as the big dumb gorilla is about as intelligent as a fart, but this time he has said something of note...

This is a serious question. In this round a side, which was highly regarded following a Bradbury-type win in last year's Grand Final, came up against a side desperate not to win more than 4.5 games, in order to receive a priority pick. Most people would look and say, the tanking side has no...

There have been some wonderful innovations from football clubs along the journey of 110+ years of VFL/AFL football, and this thread aims to look into one of the first. No, I am not talking about North Melbourne's elephant, but rather, the concept of tanking. As you are all no doubt familiar...

Last night on WIN (Ballarat) news, a president/CEO of a club in the Wimmera League mentioned some thoughts on scrapping reserve grade football, and possibly aligning some major league clubs with district league clubs, in order to work out a compromise. This in response to Ararat failing to field...

Bay13, Inspired by Mcchawk's thread rubbishing the crap the Main Board sends up to us superior types here on the Bay, which would hurt you most? A main board ban? For some of us this is not so much a question as we have been in the past, or are currently, banned from the main board, or a Bay13 ban?
