Good Friday is when Christ was crucified East Sunday was when he rose and ascended to heaven... Hence why Sunday is the real celebration and for some reason kids get to eat their chocolate eggs...

I remember being at the Ansett Cup Win and to me it was far better than the Wizard Cup Win... I remember that too and it was a better win. Not because of the rules but because we had not been in any Grand Final since 1971. In 2004 we were running hot. We'd finished off 2003 in spectacular fashion a...

Simon White should have stuck with Maths as well as English.

The Cats kicked 14 of the game’s last 17 goals to emerge victors 13.14 (92) to 7.10 (52).

Then, by definition, if we have our full list available with no gaps, Blake has no place in that team. If we had a list with 22 star players who could never get injured or lose form, then yes, we would have no need for Blake. However until we find those 22 magical players, it is extremely unrealist...

His endeavour and courage are there for all to see but his decision making when he has the ball lets him down.

Case in poinmt: Giansira-loser on Kosi a few years back. How many weeks did he get for that? Seriously, a front on bump that was hard and a little bit physical, but the kid got strait up and there seemed little malicious intent.

Yeah exactly & what a load of bollocks when a 50/50 ruck contest can result in a 9 point result for the lucky team in question. We were on the receiving end when Rix received a soft free kick from a ruck contest, the Cats probably mouthed off & the ump paid a 50. Of course Rix missed the sh...

Nothing should come out of any of them. The Cambpell Brown incident was just a late bump on a guy going for a mark (50m), Josh Kennedy could do nothing to stop his opponent from ducking his head and running into him (play on) and the Franklin wrestle was nothing. Deary me! Campbell didn't go the sp...
