Re: Who will win and why Gws vs SAINTS

I know the Green Team will be tough opponents, but I back the Saints to win by 12 points, just like last time.

Re: Women’s team

No issues with the coach - other than he is implementing a game plan that the girls are not skilful or fit enough to implement Dal should be VFL/Dev coach in the men’s program Nathan Burke coach of the girls I'd give Dal a bit more time before potting him with his new line-up.

Re: Who will win and why Gws vs SAINTS

We don't look as bad as some of our supporters paint us. Indeed, we should go in as favourites.

Re: Media is all about Toby Green.

It's going to be tricky but we need to take at least some of his sting out of his tail. There will be lots of extra support for the Saints at the MCG, but also lots of AFL supporters who see Toby as a hero as well.

Re: Dougle on the market article

We'll see, Cordy has been very good so far. but the same ppl putting Cordy on a pedestal will probably be asking for his neck on the chopping block once the opposition find some weaknesses in his game. Nothing wrong with talking about trade options but Dougal has saved our bacon more times than thos...

Re: Final V GWS Friday night (Sportsbet said) but now Saturday 3.20pm

I'm not sure that I would put it in terms of the AFL screwing us. But I do think it's odd that 6 of the teams playing finals could have had games at their home ground (although Sydney and the Giants won't because of where they finished) and 2 (Carlton and us) can't. Kardinia Park is clearly too sma...

Who feels confident regarding a win? We beat them in round 10 in Sydney… Sinclair had 37 touches NWM, Marshall, Steele, Stocker and Wood our best King kicked 4, Higgins 3 and pairs to Butler, Sinclair Whitfield, Green and Conglio the best for the home team You would have to think that we are better...

Re: GWS Would Need to Win by 7 Goals

Will be tough against GWS, would have preferred Swans at SCG smaller ground may have helped with our lack of leg speed. True, but perhaps GWS are not quite as good as they looked today, Carlton took the foot of their pedal after Curnow got enough goals for the Coleman medal ... nevertheless, they c...

Re: The Silence: AFL’s Last Taboo

Did anyone see Monday night’s episode of 4 Corners? I just watched it on iview. And I gotta say, it’s a slightly troubling report. I realise the issue makes a few people in this forum uncomfortable, but I couldn’t care less. I, for one, think it’s an abomination that the AFL is a professional sport...

Re: Why do teams suck so badly at the Gabba?

We failed against Lions in June (Spuds game) but we have become more competitive since then, have more confidence and are now a more rounded team IMHO. Should be great match and if we bring our best we have a good chance of sneaking an upset.

Re: Who do we rest?

The mistake will be keeping players happy by playing them in this upcoming game against Brisbane, versus doing the best thing for the team and the club's prospects in the first final I wouldn't be trusting players with the decision. Personally, I would 'manage' 3-4 of my most important players... T...

Re: Who do we rest?

Better off resting a couple of prime movers vs Brions and try and actually win the final. Resting players for two weeks straight is more likely a disadvantage than an advantage. Fair comment, but I'm wondering if it would be prudent to leave Max King behind as he will be key to winning the eliminat...

Re: Crows Chairman wants compensation

Couldn't of happened to a more deserving team but the decision should never have happened. If it's bad enough for the Goalie to be sacked* and the AFL openly admitting it happened - how in the hell wasn't it turned around, unless it was another AFL free gift to the Swans which has popped up at the p...

Yep, Let's do our best to beat Brisbane and let the results work themselves out and go into the finals red hot, whether it be a win or have an honorable loss.

Looking at the VFL game today a few of those guys should come in as for some it maybe the last chance for them to play for us or get a contract for next year Why would you give games to players who may not on our list next year, makes no sense.
