well i am in the middle i reckon i am 30 now have grown up and lived in bayside and been a sainter my whole life. that meant sitting on my dads shoulders in the animal enclosure with my NW #7 beanie all those years ago. I have optimism this year for a number of reasons. I think quite a few in the pl...

Seems like some people around here are clutching at straws. By all means go to the AGM ask the questions but when you get the same response ask yourself this - Do I believe those that are running the club are doing there best or am I pre disposed to negative paranoia or conspiracy theories? If your...

i encourage any questioning of any board, but only if you truly listen to their answer.

agreed

seriously build a bridge. the club did its due dilligence and it decided against it. What they found who knows but the found enough to warrant not taking him. Richmond did not complete any due dilligence apart from interviewing the player. You just have to have a little faith that they know a bit m...

well B4E (i refuse to use the revered name Barks) Can you supply one reason, one valid reason why Seaford will be worse for the club than Moorabbin? Archie has dealt with three local councils simulataneously as well as the state govt, as well as the AFL. Damn sure you couldnt handle that. The AFL s...

i think they are talking 40% for this game. expect him to build from there

we will right there or thereabouts this season mark my word.

Geelong Hawthorn aren't that much better trust me.

it is about 2 things...

having the cattle. we have that.

it is then about getting the cattle to the next level. we need to do that.

but he is talking purely about our ability to attack as people were labelling us negative...therefore i dont think it is spin to say we kicked more goals. it would be spin to say we were a better side but he is commenting in reference to being asked about 'negative / defensive' football

a walnut a day

yes i would say goals kicked is a measure of your attack

goals against a measure of defence

percentage is the team balance between the two

so if you are talking specifically about how prolific (or not) you were in attack you can only look at goals kicked

Interesting stats between 06 and 08

I like him. I like his style and I think that the so called 'negative' play has been overplayed a bit.

Great teams build attack from a solid defence there is no doubt about that
