Put money on Hanners pregame (as well as the Swans, thankyou kindly) and felt a little bit robbed at the end. Not that ROK didn't deserve it, just felt like the number four had done a little bit more. Still up a fair bit so happy anyhow. :thumbsu:

Don't get me wrong, I've got heaps of respect for their discipline. I even cited it as a reason I thought they would beat us. I'm pretty sure I once heard Roos of say (of West Coast) something to the effect, 'on paper, their side in 2005 was much better than ours, which made the win even more...

No point arguing over 19gate on your board. There are some ripper main board threads about the saga from that time, though. I would bump them but I tend to get infracted for bumping old threads. I even suggested to the Chief, the most stable genius, and his motley crew that they should start a 'Thread Bump' board...

I'm not welcome there, cheif, but with that attitude towards posters from other clubs I reckon you'd fit in quite well over there. :thumbsu:

You obviously weren't there @ Etihad when they tunnelled Edwards. Or sent Jack out to tag Harvey as he went back on the field before another Sydney man came off the field - and then had the gall to claim it was first-gamer White who had actually been the 19th man. As I've said before, I...

Mate, you tipped North to win. Get over yourself. If you can't look up a weather report or factor in the chance that Scott might play two ruckmen when he, y'know, names two ruckmen in his 22, then don't go around claiming to be some kind of football prophet - especially when you get tips wrong...

It can be a bit of a joke some times. Embarrassing on days like today. But, hey, when you ban your own posters when they are amongst the few who call out the dumb comments, you breed a culture of false confidence and insularity. Personally, I said in my preview (at the start of this thread)...

The first thing I look at when comparing teams is the difference between them in terms of AFL experience. Although the Swans average about 10 games extra per player this match, the teams are very evenly matched outside of a few veterans who inflate the average numbers. Where there is a...

My love of Crawford just keeps growing and growing. It is great to see somebody speaking out openly against AFL decisions, especially when they are in a job which is (AFAIK) more or less handed out by the AFL. Good call, fair call. :thumbsu: (Mind you, you don't know the half of it). :stern...

Re: Round 1: The Sydney Swans vs. The GWS Giants Hey, at least you owned up to it. I respect that. :thumbsu: As for me, whether you won or lost last night was never going to affect how happy I am with life. Everything panned out the way it was always going to. It's a shame I don't have...

Re: Round 1: The Sydney Swans vs. The GWS Giants So fess up: how much coin did you lose last night?

Re: Round 1: The Sydney Swans vs. The GWS Giants If the AFL weren't liable to interfere with the result, I would agree with you.

Re: Round 1: The Sydney Swans vs. The GWS Giants I tried to buy some tickets to verify this (because it could be pretty big news if true) but couldn't work out what you were talking about. Do you mean the password box on the right hand side below which it says 'get tickets'? Neither RED nor...

bloodstainedangel5 impressing me in this thread. :thumbsu: I don't blame Roos et al. for sacking Hall when they did, but I also don't blame Hall for writing in his book about the aspects of their handling it that he disagreed with. Might even give the book a read some time over summer.

Rated this bloke very highly, and always felt that most pundits underrated him. Don't normally bother posting on other team board re retirements but for this guy I am happy to. :thumbsu:

Holy smokes. Did I really post that? In here? And survive? I take back almost all the bad things I've said about you guys over the years. In my books, you're aaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllright. :thumbsu:

Geez SLF, Blair should hire you as Chief Reconciling Officer in his bid to ease tensions in the Middle East. When you can be the number-one crap-stirrer targeting a group of supporters for years, and then suddenly become best mates with the same supporters just hours after returning from a...

Yeah, they banned me from the General Board. It just isn't there anymore. If I want to read what is going on on the General Board, I have to log out of bigfooty. :thumbsd: If you think I have been insincere in anything I have said in this thread, then that is unfortunate.

No need to be like that, skipper kelly. Cheer up. :thumbsu:

Good post. :thumbsu: That's why you're not a mod, champ.

TBH I almost never wander around other club's boards, so I hadn't heard of Richmond doing this. Interesting concept. Probably a wise move. :thumbsu: It is a bi-monthly periodical which I publish from my own bedroom in my mother's house. It is called 'Should have gone to the Gold Coast'. ;)

IMHO certain Sydney posters (not naming any names, but arguably the worst of them is known to be a happy physician) have been trolling north since '07, if not earlier. SLF is a s**t-stirrer, no doubt. But he stirs up the supporters of most clubs. Hawthorn cop it from him a lot worse than you...

Cheers, bro. :thumbsu: Yes indeed. I think this is partly because we have so many posters on bigfooty relative to other clubs (and so, even if in proportion, we end up with a greater overall number of 'gimps'), and partly because, after all we've been through over the past few years, many...

As a matter of fact, I have criticised (one of) our mods for over-modding in the past. Every time one of our mods hands out a card, they run the risk of increasing the chances of one of the rest of us copping a card on other boards. I didn't think DeadlyAkkurate's post was worth a red card...

Nah, most of us are alright. :thumbsu:

I can't speak for all of us, but I'd imagine that most North supporters were (now get this) in Melbourne.

About as much class as your team after their win last night. Must be something in the water.

Apparently Roos already has his post-AFL career lined up, with the Republicans in the US vying to install him as their new PR guru. Word is that they reckon this guy can spin Warney under the table.

If only we were owned by the AFL and treated like the youngest daughter of a large family. Oh to be a Swan supporter...

Some of those are gold :thumbsu: Howabout 'We hang our debutantes out to dry' or 'Really? Woops - our bad' or 'Est. 1982. Play by the rules of 1922' or 'Forget the Harbour Bridge - this is the Sydney Tunnel' :D
