lol, based on what...4 posters on an internet forum?
We wanted to keep Ben. We chose not to trade him for an ordinary pick because we wanted to keep him. We threatened to redraft him because we wanted to keep him. We backed ourselves in to fall on the positive side of his daily 'im...
Ive been a huge fan of Nick over the past few years and was hoping he'd get more game time than he has been. Hes a super SANFL player and dominates at that level.
Unfortunately, he only has himself to blame in terms of lack of AFL time. Everytime hes been given a chance he hasnt taken it...
Chaplin is lucky he didnt make proper contact, otherwise he'd be out for about 6. Was stupid. As was Petries. It was the second time he threw a punch at Carlile in the space of about 5 minutes that connected. Whilst the contact wasnt much, was still a silly thing to do whilst an umpire is...
The only reason I saw this is because it was the last thread on the boards page...thread of the year for sure.
Im still waiting for the response on what sort of buying Glenn does. I am very interested.
Yeah well played. You thrashed us in the clearances and was the difference last night.
37 minutes? Dunno how people at the game would have handled that! Thats one of the longest quarters I can remember.
Hes a clearance specialist. Not too dissimilar to Harris.
Negatives are an alledged lack of indurance and can sometimes look laconic on the field and needs to get himself in the play more.
Positives are an insane ability to read the play and get first hands on the ball at stoppages...
Stadium deals...talk about a buzz word.
We also made nearly $1 million with poor crowds last year as well.
I just personally think that there will come a time when a club like Melbourne losing $2 million each year wont be able to stay afloat. Thats just my opinion.
No, we do get it. Noone wants to see their team go under, but how can a side like Melbourne survive losing 2 million every year and have a struggling/declining supporter base? Do you think its good for the AFL to have such teams only survive because of AFL compensation?
Yeah the North contingent did ok this year.
Jezza is Jezza. A genius footballer with a bad temper. Deserved the BnF again this year.
LeCras had a top start, was s**t in the middle before having a top end to the season.
Perry I was dissapointed with. Had a great pre season, a great...
Showdown abuse and violence is mostly made up. I love Crows supporters that lie. Funny how every single Crows supporter you speak to has been threatened with their life, told that their kids will be eaten, been spat on, pushed over, had their handbags stolen etc. Its all bullcrap. I saw more...
Yeah dunno about the Mexican Wave business. First time Ive ever seen it at a Power game was a couple of weeks back in the last round late in the last quarter. Now again this week. Last time I saw one before that was in the last round of 93 when the Crows made the finals.
Good luck for the weekend! Obviously I hope you lose but youve had a great year and Im looking forward to a great battle on Saturday!
To everyone coming over (everyone except NorthBhoy it seems), have a safe trip!
One thing that has impressed Port supporters this year has been Motlops jump in maturity. THere has only been one game this year where he has gone a bit haywire and given away free kicks. He was benched, then came back on and had an impact. I think when he was denied that mark against...
Re: Sooo wh is goin to aDELADE????
On a more serious note...it is good to see so many of you making the trek over. You shouldnt have anything to worry about. Crowd issues are seriously over stated.
Should be a great game and great crowd.
Hey guys. Good contest yesterday.
Both teams played very well in patches and both teams let their foot off the pedal at times. I think we both played similar matches. Both of our tall forward players did nothing but the smalls took over and kicked most of the goals.
From a Port...
Not anymore he's not. Hes just been released as a recruit for the Port Adelaide Magpies, playing with former teammates Brent Lecras, Justin Perkins and J Clayton.
Watched him closely this year. Won the U17 Magarey Medal in 05.
He is quick when he wants to be but he isnt explosive like Aaron Davey. Those calls are a bit off in my opinion.
Played about 11 reserves games and about 5-6 seniors games this year for Port.
In the reserves he...
Pace and size are overrated sometimes. Roger James had neither and he was the best midfielder we've had at AFL level. Sam Mitchell is never gonna win a sprint final either. Doesnt stop them from winning a heap of the footy tho. Josh Mahoney looks like he is running on the stop half the time...
Absolute champion is Jezza. I remember writing a thread here at the start of the year asking if the hype was justified. Bloody oath it was. One of the best footballers ive laid eyes on. Averaged 30.4 disposals a game during the year, played 19 games and was named in the best players 17...
