Re: If you think Dermie's a flog, well you're probably right
Paddy's contested marking was very good. How he took the ball at the top of his jump was great. Leads well. He is not bad when it hits the deck, probably better than Hogan. His ball handling and field kicking very good. He gets in to tackle and lock the ball in. What does seem to be missing at the m...

Re: hall of fame
There will be the usual token nomination(s) of some SA or WA coodabeens who never tested themselves in the big league. - Won all sorts of accolades in their goldfish bowl but too scared to play in the ocean. Meanwhile champs like TB and Buckets will be overlooked. Spoken like someone who never watc...

It says it 'raked in' 2.0m. Not an accounting term. I wonder if that is turnover?stjay wrote:Do you mean where the figures quoted in the paper came from?Verdun66 wrote:I would love someone to show me where the figure of $2.0m profit out of pokies comes from.

Re: Moorabbin - Trouble Ahead
Would love to know exactly how much they're making out of the machines. If we accept that we are not going to grow that revenue stream (or maybe slightly at the margin) then the PR win alone with the local community and members from getting rid of them could end being worth a multiple in value to t...

Re: Moorabbin - Trouble Ahead
Love going into interesting looking pubs when I'm back home. But I often find them full of pokies. Straight back out the door,bigred wrote:Not a fan of pokies.
Blight on society, just like illicit drugs.
Ruined many a good pub too. Not to mention the live music scene in this town.

I believe the thing about North is true.avid wrote:I think I agree with you Johnny Member.
And I was just talking to a North member yesterday who said there were stacks of members there who had actually joined up to support the club when it dumped the pokies.

Re: Moorabbin - Trouble Ahead
I gather that the problem the pokies activist sees is that it is proposed to be a Junior Footy hub. If Pokies get through....and personally I hope they don't.....they would want to be well away from where Juniors are. Not the worst thing to want. This Pokies chap is a very committed loyal Saints mem...

Re: 2015 a success?
I agree. That is how I'm looking at it. Port looked a basket case two years ago, the Dogs didn't have too many supporters before the season. Not sure we will come steaming out like those two, but a bit more time and recruiting and we'll go past quite a few others. More pre-seasons and mature AFL bod...

What happens to this thread if we win? Anyways hysteria aside if you read the op it does insinuate one game is more important to us than the other. Do I have an issue with that if true? I honestly don't know by know to be honest. Half of me thinks of the business side of things and the strategic lo...

Re: Josh Bruce has gone mad.
Apologies if someone mentioned this before. I seem to remember it being mentioned that Josh Bruce was elite athlete material because he had done some rowing when he was younger. That sets up serious aerobic capacity and strength. Or did I dream that? Pretty sure it was Josh. http://www.geocities.ws...
