Your absolutely right, when he puts his two cents worth in on who will be the next big thing he's very right at being wrong.

What does Foxtel cost They're advertising $50 including 40 channels & footy. I think we pay just over that now... so that deal may be for new subscribers. Worth every cent in my book... I never watch free to air Ch 7 after the way they have treated footy fans over the past 5 years. Any shows on...

When I read that he stood shoulder to shoulder with a police mate against the underworld; told Mick how things really are, and said no to the son of Subiaco's president that he would not be playing in the grand final, I just thought WOW!

It certainly cost us the premiership. An inexcusable mistake that could only happen to St Kilda. The fact that Cook has even mentioned it is amazing. The football world in general don't seem to pay much credence to the incident. Personally it makes my blood boil. Absolutely astounding really! It se...

Greg Baum misses the point .. we were on a rapid decline in 2011 under RL and leapfrogged by teams that had a youth policy and knew how to develop and recruit youth. We were lucky to make the 8 this year (when everyone expected us to finish higher than Geelong) and I think another year under RL wou...

Everyone forgets Eddie was one of the key players behind the push to sell Waverley Park ( the AFL owned venue) to get the money better working for clubs - a large portion of which was dumped in to Docklands with the promise of future ownership .
