This goes to show there's more thought put into the game from people outside the workings of the game than what there is inside AFL house

I've mentioned before how I admire your passion but even for you this theory is just way way to out there.

In your opinion KT and Kockie sat down with Flogheart Road - your expert on everything Chinese, to decide not to televise the most historic game of the century because your opponent is wearing the same jumper they have worn for every game played between your clubs.

This is a staggering theory, I hope your business dealings in China blossom as I fear you invest far to much time coming up with these bizzare afl theories.

You've had some crackers this season already, I liked the one where Kern told your boys to ease up in the last quarter against GWS so they would be fresh to take on the might of Carlton the following week.

And "we believed it was part of the commercial agreement" that they wear white because that would mean you could sell the whole game?

Hey janus, you know how you tell what's in the commercial agreement?

By reading it. Not by assuming that something will happen because you want something else to happen

You have to feel for Port, they had 3 coaches a few years ago and they kept the shit one, the two good ones left.

Walshy was looking the goods and Richardson is doing a good job with what he has at his disposal.

It is easy to imagine Port would be in alot better place if Richo had taken over at Alberton.

And may Ken Hinkley's reign continue forever and ever. Amen. Praise be to God.

Wasn't it mclure, last friday night saying the game should have been at etihad?
Maclure couldn't be any more Vic centric if he tried.

Did anyone else see him and McGuire banging on about Carlton and Collingwood on Fox Footy after tonight's game. Embarrassing display from two blokes struggling for relevance, just like their two clubs are.

Adam Kennedy has done his ACL by the looks.
To me they're almost at the point where injuries might kill their season. Buntine, Kennedy with serious knees, Cognilio just back after missing 6, the same week Haynes is out for 10. I'd add Deledio too, but that was always a risk. Comes a point where the injuries pile up and cripple momentum.

I'd love for this to be the case as it would knock out a serious contender. Very much early days though, and even with injuries they're currently sitting 5-2. Let's see how their injury list is looking in round 18.

True, and its better to suffer injuries now. But what can sometimes happen is you never seem to ever get that best 22 on the park, which does impede on your ability to get the peak output from the team. Will be interesting to monitor. They've got a handy guy by the name of Whitfield back next week.
