Have really enjoyed following the Hawthorn camp up on the Sunshine Coast on the HFC home page this past week. The media department have been providing a day by day coverage of this brutal pre Christmas slugfest with a daily recollection of the schedule with a different player every day along...
Havent always been a fan of Eddie but his shoow tonight was a cracker! His interviews with some of athletics greatist names was something to behold. More of this EM.
Just watched this doco on ABC. Without doubt the best music documentary I have ever seen. The photography and footage taken of these legendary sessions were pure magic as was the music. Loved the interpretations of the whole scene by everyone involved. What a band!
Is it just me or is Dowler simply not good enough? I have watched him closely for two years and am of the opinion that the recruiting staff has stuffed up badly here. Dosent seem anywhere near an AFL player.
For those who would like like a speculative punt on the 2009 Brownlow check out the opening quote on Brad Sewell. $201 the win and $51 the place! This for a bloke who polled 16 votes this season despite a mid year shoulder op that cost him 4 games and a couple while he got fit. Great overs. Best...
I have a three year old who unfortunately has little understanding of the space dad needs when the Hawks are on TV. I feel like abandoning the house for a pub to watch todays clash. I'm a little out of the loop as to the Hawthorn friendly, foxfooty showing public houses in Melbourne this year...
The owners of Princes Coup should surely have sacked D Oliver after he slaughtered their mare in the Australia Cup. Unfortunately they stuck with him and paid the price today in the BMW. Had he followed Tuesday Joy through when she took off in the straight instead of looking for a gutless inside...
One of my favourite shows has been the PRIMETIME wrap up on ESPN in the lead up to the Sunday night game ( Monday morning our time ). As my wife has discontinued our Foxtel guide delivery I have lost track of what and when the Sunday round up will be on this season. Much appreciated if someone...
Is the ABC so broke for money and ideas that this rubbish can be dished up on a Friday night? This programme has not a redeeming feature. I defy anyone with an IQ over 40 to find anything funny about this disorganised experience in drivel.
If anyone actually likes this show I feel for you...
The bookies must have thought all their x-mas's had come at once when Mr Celebrity missed a place in the Cup. Their celebrations were dampened somewhat by the decision to declare him a non runner meaning they had to give all that lovely loot back. They shouldnt complain.The Waterhouse trained...
The new Springsteen offering DEVILS AND DUST is every bit as good as the rave reviews it has received. He really has no peer when it comes to this haunting, whimsical type of accoustic based music and on D&D he rises to heights not heard since the majestic NEBRASKA of 1982. In an album full of...
The most important aspect of Luke Hodges arrival as an elite AFL player for us is that he can relieve Richie Vandenberg of the captaincy at seasons end. The appointment of RV was a mistake and must be righted at first opportunity. The extra pressure has turned a bloke who was at best a battler...
Probably been commented on already but the idea of putting all the kids i n against a desperate Essendon is music to my ears. There is no way that the last coach would have done it and I am hanging out to get to the MCG on Sunday. I had doubts about AC ( the Richie appointment was a shocker )...

Looking around my local Video Ezy the other day when to my delight I came across the newly released Alvin Purple DVD. Containing both the original ALVIN PURPLE and its sequel ALVIN RIDES AGAIN, this gem is a must for those of us dissilusioned with the drab Aussie film output of recent times...
Talking a bit through my pocket here but was Forest Pride a certainty beaten yesterday or what? A bit more aggresion from Shinn wouldnt have gone astray in the straight, he has a lot to learn. A crying shame.
Where are Jacks mates from the big end of town when he needs them? Facing much deserved humiliation and not a peep of support. We all know his shameless backstabbing and dishonest buckpassing have cost him most of his business associates but surely someone from either the Liberal Party or the...
Been really impressed with the public performance of JD so far in his interim role. He is obviously highly intelligent and puts himself across in a manner that instills a bit of confidence. I get the feeling he is far from impressed with some of the decision making that has been made in the...
The British TV chanel on FOXTEL are showing the first series of that brilliant series "The Office" starting next Monday at 8.30pm. If you havent seen this gem do not miss it.
Go the Brentmyster.
Anyone besides me find some of the coaches' comments a little bewildering of late? Asked this week whether he would consider stepping down if his side were to lose all the remaining games this season he said "Even if we lose those games I would stay because I think we would be finding a lot...
Although it was always going to happen, the retirement of King Carey came as a bit of a jolt, as the finale of larger than life figures always does. Reflecting on his career today I came to the very quick conclusion that no single player has dominated my beloved Hawks so consistently in my time...
It as getting harder by the week to live with the fact that I contribute time and money to the HFC. Yesterday certainly didnt help. Today in the newspaper I read that Board member Dermott Brereton reckons that what Hawthorn did in engaging Essendon in the brawl was "Fantastic". Peter Schwab...
Not long after the crediblity of the playing group reached rock bottom the club's management has decided to follow suit. The decision to trash Danny Jacobs with a wet noodle after he broke at least three team rules and then boldy lied to his new employers is farcical. To slug Lance Picoane with...
Heard Dermie Brereton claim that there were positives to come out of last nights game. Apparently kicking 13 of the last 20 goals in the game is something to build on. Sounds familiar to his mate Peter Schwab who has been attempting some of the most outragous spin imaginable in recent times.Some...
Is there a bigger dud in the the AFL than this bloke? Vice Captain of the club and the biggest waste of talent on the list. Schwab wont have the guts but this bloke should be sent to Box Hill until the end of the year and then put up for trade. His efforts in the big games is nigh on...
That Bowden dosent seem to give a stuff. He reminds me of a few of the blokes at my club ( Hawthorn ). Someone told me he is part of the Tiger leadership group. This cannot be true, surely. Danny has too much faith in that bloke.
