You do realise it's an infractable offence to impersonate a MOD, Nick ?

It would be if that was my intension, but thats not the case here TOD. I was only replying to our agwa loving friend without stirring him up more on the MODS issue.

Yep. Another all-conquering paintshop effort from tdf.
Particularly love his loyalist use of a royal blue colour scheme.
Could have done with more Kangaroo eating an Essendon player.

I reckon we need a Shame File of those who have been carded for starting dream team type threads on our board.
It could be good salt to run in wounds after we beat their teams.
"HA HA. We flogged your mob by 16 goals AND you got carded for starting a spaz thread on our board!"
(Side note: A mate one went out with a girl who's Dad was on The Shame File)

Re: 37. Scott Thompson
I gave him some drunken encouragement on GF day. For both his sake and the hopes of my DT, I hope he plays.

Re: 37. Scott Thompson
From the Geelong Advertiser
From South Barwon to the big league, Scott Thompson set for play with North Melbourne
Bradley Green
22Mar08
THIS time last year, Scott Thompson was only worrying about against who and where South Barwon was playing its next practice game.
On Monday, the 21-year-old could be running out for his AFL debut with North Melbourne in front of a crowd of 40,000 at the Telstra Dome.
Thompson has been named in the Kangaroos squad for their opening round clash with Essendon.
While their side won't be finalised until tomorrow, Kangaroos football manager Donald McDonald said Thompson was likely to be playing.
"He's been terrific in the pre-season and it's going to be a big challenge for him because he's never played in this environment before and such a big occasion like the opening round," McDonald said yesterday.
"But he's deserved the right to get this opportunity and I'm sure he'll be out there giving it his best shot. He's got very good composure, whether he's playing at South Barwon with Geelong's VFL side or at North Melbourne. He handles himself very well."
Thompson was drafted by the Kangaroos after playing in Geelong's VFL premiership last season and McDonald said they see him filling a role in their backline.
South Barwon coach Dale Amos said it had been an amazing journey for Thompson from playing GFL footy to the big stage of the AFL.
"He's done a remarkable job and it has been a meteoric rise for him," Amos said.
"Scotty has shown that he can handle all these things in his stride. He played great footy for us at the start of the last year and then played really well for the GFL in the interleague game.
"When he got his opportunity at VFL level, he stepped up again and when stakes were at their highest in the grand final, he played his best game of the year."

Re: 37. Scott Thompson
Thought Scott did well enough today to hold his place for next week. Would like to see him put on a few more kilos which would add a few more heavies on the backline.

Re: 37. Scott Thompson
Hold his place? Thought he was very good, showed good composure in some stick situations and seemed to belong
Yes, that frame needs a few kebabs

Re: 37. Scott Thompson
Why is he not playing, had a goos first up showing round 1, now not even an emergency after being dropped last week?

Re: 37. Scott Thompson
Was thinking the same Deledio, Thommo went pretty well on debut in a backline that got pounded. Was stunned he didn't retain his place, and equally stunned he's not running around this week. Where abouts is he playing this week?

Re: 37. Scott Thompson
So far there is no explaination of why he has disapeaared and is out of sight. His footy has been good, it's either a disipline thing or injury

Re: 37. Scott Thompson
Knowing Thommo, i highly doubt that it would be a discipline thing. He rarely drinks, and told me he only learnt to drink beer as part of Norths initiation game, called Colonel something, and is one of the most dedicated blokes i've met.
There has to be more to it then North are letting on. His preseason was brilliant, and he certainly wasn't disgraced round 1. Who are North aligned to in the VFL these days? Is it Werribee?
