Stats are great. I love stats. Opinions are great. I love opinions. BF is great. I love BF. Bevo is a great coach as he took us to the pinnacle. Bevo is no longer a great coach as we've tanked in 2017, and almost tanked again this year after being 3 goals up in the third quarter of a...

Other teams have also adopted it sparingly from time to time, and only in specific scenarios similar to the one Mutt has alluded to by the Pies. Others also try to back off by covering an opponent in the vicinity, we have defenders guarding open space, but still allowing opponents to get free...

Yeah, I know, but Quinlan, Sandilands and Templeton played as KPPs at 193, 188, 191 (Parke a mobile CHF at 185), but Merrington consistently played FB for several seasons at 187 and 85kgs picking up the taller and/or heavier McKenna, Wade, even Hudson and Donohue, amongst others, when Sandilands...

I went off Wikipedia and afltables. Club sites have interesting variations. Even back when Scott West and Brad Johnson were running around, the club would change their height (up and down) almost yearly.

Aren't we paying 600, and the Pies the rest?

Sam Edmund in some clip posted on the North board said Lobb has wanted out for some time, even before this season, but not as adamant as others where he ends up. So maybe not the fait accomplis everyone assumes coming to us. Although I believe Clarkson may have hinted in recent comments that...

Surely Brendan Macartney is on that list? Even Rocket and Rohde?! :laughing:

Who'd have thought that Naughton and Cordy would be the 'shortest talls' we look like going into a final at 195 and 193!? (Cordy is also listed at 195 on Wikipedia) English 207 Darcy 208 Bruce 197 JUH 197 Gardner 197 Or we could bring in: Keath 197 Schache 199 Sweet 203 Martin 199...

Father sons all over the place! We could almost field a 'Footscray' under age side in the EDFL or WRFL (or both) full of father sons, or maybe a NAB League u18 team?! Have we got enough daughters for a team?

Is FB now changing "stiff" to "stuff", or are you both stiff with your typing, or maybe neither of you can give a stuff about typing "stiff"?!

Next week? Or next year? Or both?! :laughing:

It's an omen! (I'm not sure for what yet, but thanks for pointing it out anyway! :))

So Zorko is, to quote David King, a recidivist, but Lions now making him out to be the victim. "Poor Dayne, please feel sorry for him, he's the sole captain, what a burden to carry." I suppose not every captain can be Bont-like, or even Bont-lite.

Bevo playing 4D, or even 5D, chess?! He's almost in a different dimension to the rest of us!

Thanks Bogey!
