So the almighty YouTube algorithm linked this amazing series to me over the weekend. As a sucker for longform media, I was engrossed watching/listening to the whole run and I absolutely recommend it for anyone that loves their footy history. Fellow St Kilda masochists, I present to you "As Bad...

Couple of disclaimers: Not a whinging Saints fan. I don't want May suspended. I have brought this issue up before. Last night Steven May took a great speccy on Zane Cordy. Read it well, got the sit, love it. However... Zane Cordy was taken to the bench and subsequently failed a concussion...

MODS - Feel free to move/merge if there's another thread about this but I couldn't find one. https://www.sen.com.au/news/2023/05/30/swans-rule-mccartin-out-for-the-season-despite-making-some-progress/ The Swans have ruled McCartin out for the year as he is still showing concussion symptoms two...

Re-watched Godfather 1+2 on the weekend and the scene with Michael and Kay in the hotel during part 2... "Michael... you are blind" had me stunned. I'd seen the movie a few times, years ago, but something about this scene and the way Pacino just controls everything through his eyes is...

Have seen a few people take a punt at these in the draft thread so bragging rights up for grabs once again people! 2 10 14 18 21 25 31 39 Some pretty juicy options available. Phillipou has reportedly asked the club for #2, so I rekon we can lock that in. Does anyone get an upgrade? What would...

Always fun to see who gets what. The club usually takes forever to get these out so should have a bit of time to speculate on things. Anyone jumping out for an upgrade? I think Highmore is a lock but could see Sharman and Byrnes getting a look in as well. Where do the NGA boys sit? Earn a...

Well the draft was both a massive talking point and also highly uneventful for us. Time for the next best part of the off season - NEW JUMPER NUMBERS We have the following players to assign: Crouch, Higgins, Frawley, McKernan, Allison, Highmore We have the following numbers free: 5, 22, 24...

While he hasn't played a huge number of games, I can't help but feel this kid deserves his own thread. There was a heap of debate leading up to the 2014 draft about who we should take but McCartin was the right call. Membrey came in as a DFA, Bruce had yet to play forward & so it was Roo or...

Im going early but I love seeing who gets what. We have a few empty spots up for grabs. Here are my guesses (updated post draft) - 1 - Nick Coffield (from 33) 10 - Dan Hannebery (confirmed) 12 - Max King 19 - Dean Kent 23 - Ben Paton (from 45) 25 - Rowan Marshall (from 43) 33 - Matthew Parker...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_in_the_sand_match We need a game like this. Our team has been building for the last few years with top end draft picks and shrewd trades. There are very few moves that we have made in the off season that we as a fan forum have universally howled down as...

I have a 3 game ticket and my old man is coming down from Merimbula for Roo's last game. No membership but on concession. I called the club to see what kind of crowd they expected, how early to get there etc and was told they are planning for a capacity game given its our last home game and Roo...

Board pride up for grabs here. Fill in the blanks and brag about your genius. 2017 Playing Numbers 1. Tom Hickey 2. Jake Carlisle 3. Jack Steven 4. Jade Gresham (From 22) 5. Shane Savage 6. Seb Ross 7. Luke Dunstan 8. Blake Acres 9. Jack Steele 10. Nathan Freeman 11. Leigh Montagna 12. Nick...

So with recent comments from both Ross Lyon and Nat Fyfe in different media forums there are now questions being asked of Nat Fyfe's availability. Both parties have said that if Fyfe isnt happy with the plans for the rebuild of the list then he is within his rights to look around and walk away...

So the Cats have stated there will be a formal announcement on numbers tomorrow and im always a sucker for this stuff so thought Id start a thread. I know Dangerfield will be wearing #35 and that the Dees have announced a few but for the life of me I cant find the story. I do remember Petracca...

Hi all, Pretty obvious question really. Should we continue to have compulsory voting in Australia? I am registered to vote but I simply Donkey vote at this point because I don't care anymore. I voted Libs until Rudd and once Gillard was in I just decided that it made no real difference to me...

With Sam Mitchell once again racking up 30+ in a final (for a record 11th time) Im suprised this thread has already come up. While Crowley didnt have the pure match fitness due to his suspension, his aerobic fitness and physical strength was in no way diminished. He is also one of the smarter...

Evening all and welcome once again to LWP's live feed from the Saints BnF dinner, the Trevor Barker award. As with last year ill provide regular updates on the speech makers, the vote takers, the head turners and the rug burners. Ive learned from last year and arrived at Crown early enough to...

Welcome to the 2015 Big Footy Dynasty Ultimate Footy Off Season List Management Thread - BFDUFOSLMT for short! - The draft will be held in late January after UF release the player positions and we are able to run it online, as is tradition. - I will put the draft order (with all the pretty...

Not the worst result. We played horrible football and nearly stole it. Lessons to be learned - Man up the 7th defender. Wood was BOG. Seb Ross is a starting player. We look better with Hickey up forward. Lets Bruce and Roo get a better run at things. Gilbert looks a yard off the pace. Was...

I preface this thread by saying it is based on speculation - Is there a bigger issue at the Crows than we realise? While many in the media highlighted the Lions and the "Go Home 5" there doesnt seem to be much being made about the Crows of the last few years. Bock, Davis, Gunston, Tippett...

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2015-03-11/coaches-cant-win-in-this The AFLCA and Fox Footy have brokered an in-principle agreement whereby the competing coaches at each 2015 game covered exclusively by the pay-TV channel would sit alongside each other in a joint post-match press conference...

With the season ending injuries to Petracca, MacKenzie and Libba alot of people have bounced the idea of scrapping the pre season games altogether. Having talked to a mate who spent a couple of seasons training with Dandy Stingrays we came up with the idea of pushing the PSD/rookie draft back...

Why is no-one talking about him? Has been delisted by Adelaide so is free to a good home. Off the top of my head I can see at least 8 teams that could use him - Brisbane - Would be a handy FF option. Take the best defender away from their kids. Carlton - Need a forward to replace Waite...

TEAM LWP - 42/45 Acres, Blake Ashby, Jason Broadbent, Matthew Campbell, Tom Clarke, Justin Curren, Tom Dawes, Chris Day, Sam Duryea, Taylor Fasolo, Alex Gilbert, Sam Griffiths, Ben Hartung, Billy Hooker, Cale Horlin-Smith, George Howlett, Ben Hutchings, Mark Johannisen, Jason Knight, Riley Lee...

Out: Billings - inj Bruce - inj Stanley - omit Schneider - omit In: Saunders - Has staked his claim in the VFL and we need pacy mids that can find the goals. Shenton - Play Gwilt forward and bring Panther back to lock down on Goodes/Reid. Wright - We need a lockdown small defender for...

Is there any reason why this never gets talked about as an idea at election time? Or any other time for that matter? There have been proposals in the past (including a possible suspension bridge) but it seems like something obvious to get done as the expansion of Melbourne continues into the...

Mods feel free to move if this isn't the right place. It seems like the 'War on PEDs' is being lost. Just about every Olympic Athlete, Boxer, MMA fighter or Tour De France winner has had some sort of irregular sample at some point. Many of them outright cheating, even if it takes years to find...
