So is our full draw for next year out yet?

 

[richoatthedisco]

No, it just says Geelong doesn't play at home until round 10.

 

[Groupie_]

So are we going to get them at the G?

 

[Harmichael]

So they're just drip feeding us the details of the draw now? Are we supposed to slowly piece it together by some kind of process of elimination?

In educational testing, the process of elimination is process of deleting options whereby the possibility of option being correct is close to zero. Certain amount of luck is required but it only comes down to luck when only 2 options are available.

I hope we have a lot of luck with our draw this year!

Gotta LMAO @ Carlton possibly offloading that stick insect Robert Warnock, maybe to the Saints.

Remember, this is the major 'get' the snared from Freo a couple of years ago after he had only played 21 games, and he has since only played 37 in 3 years at The Blues.
Wasn't he supposed to form part of a Rucking Domination at Carlton along with Kreuzer????
Now Hampson has gone past him and after investing roughly a million in him over his first 3 years + signing him just this year to a further 3 years they are looking to offload him.

I suppose if you have more money than sense this looks like good roster management.



















(Roach8 drifts away and quietly hopes The Tigers don't sniff around him because of our need for a back-up tap ruckman!!! )

They paid fricken heaps for Warnock too. Mind you, they've been a tad unlucky in the ruck dept, what with Kreuzer being a No.1 pick and all, and that Jacobs turning out such a dud

I'd still take Warnock over Cam Wood.

But then again I'd take Willie Wheeler sitting on Robbie Hicks' shoulders over Cam Wood.

Yeah I would've been alright with Warnock as a back up but his price has been inflated just a wee bit

3AW Rumour File this morning had a bloke ring in saying the Bumbers new facility at Tulla has been declared structurally unsound and has to be dismantled and re-built. He finished off by saying "Thats what happens when you accept the cheapest quote" He sounded legit.

Would be a pisser if it is true

Nt likely on his coin

More proof the AFL's expansionist propaganda is a crock of shit:

I found this bit particularly interesting:

The Giants also come in for criticism for not focusing on community programs, although the federal government recently advanced them $2 million for this purpose.

So much for "growing the game". Begs the question - what exactly are they spending it on then? Seems to me that not only are they plundering all our talent, they're sureptitiously using our tax dollars to do it.​

Ran into an old mate who was a pretty passionate Norf supporter a few years back..

Was suprised to find out that he's jumped ship to the Gold Coast Suns (member and all)

So they've gone from three and a dog to two and a dog (or is it just three??).

This inspired me to take a look at the dons thread to see if they had mentioned it. OMG! Some of the crap they post there ranges from laughable to lunacy.

-Cotchin has hit his prime and no more improvement expected
-Hardwick likely to be fired before 2014 (Hird is safe as houses)
-Richmond has failed in trade so far by picking up 2 spuds while Goddard/Daniher is the second coming messiah
etc etc etc

What board is the most delusional?

I liked the 'Goddard is a genuine elite a grader' line..

Yeah, 3 years ago

 

[Bazzar]

And the Heppell 2nd in this years B&F and Conca 11th was a cracker.

Heppell 2nd, Deledio 2nd... Are the Bumbers suggesting Heppell is as good? If anything it shows even though they had injuries, they have depth no better than ours.

 

[3rdManUp]

I loved the part when they said we have had a dream run with injuries this year
Although compared to the weapon implosion I can see how they would think that
