There is in Scottish Criminal Law a precedent from the 1800s whereby three men who beat up a fourth outside a tavern were charged with murder and brought to trial. The victim died, goes without saying but you never know your audience. All three were found not guilty as it could not be determined...
Charlie was sitting down at the welcome reception in Shanghai on the Friday night before Jiangwan Stadium I in May 2017. I went straight up to him with Port Woolwich to shake his hand, said “Hi Charlie, please don’t stand up.” But he did, and that made quite an impression right in front of us...
This is where the mods, or spec mod, earn their incredible pocket money.
Start the thread first, then the right-minded posters will dictate the course.
There is a board of directors meeting on Friday. For KT to come out on the eve of it and invite questions on this from what remains of the Port faithful is, to me, being commendably upfront. Fagan would send a hologram. Do we have a BF rep in attendance to ask half a dozen key questions on our...
In the 1960s the SANFL clubs sold minimal merchandise. I can only remember having a Magpies beanie. People didn't advertise their bias by what they wore, just those who used their mouths, so how did you know? Of course, if you stoop to a blue rinse, knitting needles and a Bible you tend to give...
Keiran Agius is PAFC's first 'China' recruit. He came on the Aboriginal Academy tour to HK at the end of November, then on to Guangzhou and Beijing. During the tour, it would seem, the deal was set in motion.
Jimmy Sawford, played half-back flank as I recall.

Which academies (plural) are you talking about as being "hairy" ?
The Indigenous Academy ? For which the Federal Govt. recently granted PAFC/PCL a very hairy six-figure sum ?
The International Academy ?
Tell me how 'the SANFL clubs can surely damage (its) success'. I certainly need to know...
Saw him play for the Academy side in the first round vs. Norwood and was impressed.
Tall forward who rucks, mature-age, a luxury on the wing if he should actually start there.
Last Friday I asked my Genie in the Heineken bottle to grant me three wishes:
1. That the Magpies beat Sturt;
2. That the Power beat the Crows;
3. That we desist from provoking this barnacle from Glenelg and let him detach himself and disappear into the depths.
One out of three is what I got...
Look, pal, I think you've outlived your uselessness.
You obviously don't know who you follow, or much of anything else according to the drivel you post.
Begone.
'SANFL' and 'smart enough' in the same sentence don't fit well with me when the subject is 'income streams'.
You give the SANFL executive far too much credit if you think they can generate unaided sufficient revenue to perpetuate the competition.
Package sponsorship this season for the SANFL as...
This is true. This is a reality. This is a fact of life wherever money provides the blood and the oxygen.
And if it wasn't so, I'd hazard a guess, the SANFL would soon be declared bankrupt.
Buddha's comments confirm my observation:
Arch is getting up to the level we need and had the job of curbing the Eagles' most dangerous player in Luke Jarrad. He had some real speed, power and burst in his game as well as hitting the scoreboard.
Great to read so many positive posts about AhChee's game today.
I saw him play in the first two games and felt that he was being tutored by Buddha & Co. in the role of a defensive forward.
These days he lays more tackles per game than he did all last season.
The lad indeed has something...
