Who were the two teams who played a grand final at vfl park one year while the MCG was being updated . I would have been pissed off to finally win a grand final and it was at vfl park back then .

Hawkins kicked some nice little bags in his first couple of years. Even Jay Schulz did.
Closer to the Travis Cloke scale at this point in time. :(
The problem has been Paddy has been played to far out from goal . If they had of being playing him at full forward he would have had a few bags of 5 or 6 or even more. Instead he's been marking them too far out from goal then kicking to Bruce or a Membrey.

David King talking shit yet again. Parish is super soft.
Yesterday he was on about how Collingwood should select DeGoey despite his imposed sanction, on the grounds that its important that they win a game.
a) its kind of sad when Collingwood has better moral judgement than members of the media.
b) King must be challenging Purple for the award by now.

King - the guy who makes so many outlandish statements every year. When one comes true, he is paraded as a genius.

Saints won't win a game this year
Pies should play degoey because he "absolutely brained them" - great language to use on a tv channel.

Just a very big blow hard.

You just have to learn not to take blokes like Kingy seriously.
There is so many footy media outlets out there now that if people like him didnt say something ridiculous every now and then we wouldnt even notice him.
Hes just desperately trying to keep his job.
People like Brad Johnson , Lingy & Matthew Richardson have proved that if your a half decent bloke to listen to then you dont have to talk shit to survive.

I kind of hope that Collingwood win just to stick it up him. Generally i don't like Collingwood to win, but they are playing Essendon, so its not like a team i like will win either way.

I think the Blues have a ways to go...

Come to think of it, I think the Blues have to sink a fair bit deeper into the well before they'll see ANY stars, based on tonight's performance.
