Teams Replacing 2009

Its also wrong.
My question would be "what date do you think the year ends"?
If it ends when most of us think it does, there should be 7 players. But lets change the calender to make my report more dramatic. ( for reference Collingwood , who did quite nicely during that period retain around 4 extra players - no comment on quality though ).

But I still maintain that the on-field success did not mean we had to make crap drafting decisions.

Geelong and Collingwood didn't do too badly when compared to us over the same period. Yes due to our success we didn't have low draft picks but we could could have done much better with the ones we had including not letting Ball go for nothing!

and not trading our first round pick for a scumbag like Lovett.

Thanks Ross.

Always wonder if Cousins and Lovett would've gotten us one point better than Eddy and Mcqualter in 2010

It's always easy to say they were scumbags but if two scumbags got Premiership medals alongside Nick Riewoldt Lenny Hayes and such... I really wouldn't have complained that much.

Plus we'd not have had to see the media love for Collingwood.

If we won a premiership we could have had Satan himself in the midfield and I wouldn't have complained.

You think I want a Demon playing for us? He'd be soft as butter.

LOL Jack Watts is a Demon. They need to find a new team for him called the "Poweder puffs"

I see what you did there

Satan would be a good in and under player.

Will Roo even stay in Australia that long after retiring? Or will he head straight over to the US to be with his wife, have kids, etc.

Ive seen no impression that he has any indication on going to America. You forget the man is a tassie boy and cant stray from its sparkling abalone filled waters for more then a few months without perishing.

I've maintained all along that he will end up having a kid over in the states that becomes one of the greatest wide receivers to ever play in the NFL, such is our luck with father/son selections.

Whilst he's said "Catherine and I are really enjoying our life in Melbourne at the moment and all that goes with it", it was also attributed to him that "he even harbours the dream of one day living in the US and helping to develop future AFL footballers."

having lived in houston and seen countless college and high school athletes that will never make the big time, i think hes onto something

get the sport into high schools and colleges as a way of keeping fit and an all round co-ordination sport and let it grow from there
