How Shaw & Lockyer missed out, is a mystery.

Who would you knock out of the top 40 to get them in?

The MRP assessed the incident as Intentional conduct, high contact and medium :shock: impact. This resulted in a level 4 offence. Impact ratings are low, medium, high and severe. Given that Williams was left hunched over for some time I would have thought that the impact would have been assessed as ...

The funniest line he said this morning was along the lines of that he implored those with views to a challenge to not conduct it through the media. Lucky my car was parked at the time otherwise I would have driven it off the road. What a case of "do as i say not as i do"...Where was this a...

You can almost bank on playing West Coast in the first 5 rounds without Bakes!

They'd be fantastic if you didn't move the camera when taking your shots.

Or maybe you need to use sports mode on your camera...Your shutter is staying open too long.

fevola is a d*ckhead and just what this club doesn't need. Lots of players have been idiots at their original clubs and been moved on and turned their careers around. Lockett, Hall, Pike, Lappin...to name a few. Despite not playing a game, Gardiner has kept his head down at our club. If we can turn...

Thomas became coach through a farcical process, without any previous AFL coaching experience and was paid $500,000 a year straight up Thomas should be grateful that he was paid more than what he should have been to begin with even aside from the dubious nature of his intial appointment Who is at fa...

How about....Brendan Fevola? He is on the market (in a secretive 'off the market' kind of way). Would you take him? I'd take him in a heartbeat...The cost would be the prohibitive factor. If the club was able to negotiate the right trade and price then he would be our full forward for the next five...

Play for 1/2 a quarter then go to sleep like you always do...Don't worry about me I wont do anything...Status quo for the year! Now get out there and play footy.

Going by the stats...they have had tonnes more of the ball than us...They are using it better and are marking it inside 50 more than us...They are also converting at 62% compared to our 39%

Another goal to Pettifer!

Looks like we've played our quarter for the match.

http://realfooty.com.au/news/news/good-friday-game-next-year/2007/08/31/1188067369729.html But the AFL was bracing itself yesterday for several disputes as a result of its Good Friday plans - not least from Geelong and St Kilda, whose chiefs two years ago approached AFL chief executive Andrew Demet...

Coll - 2.0 (12)
Adel - 5.3 (33)

Quarter time

I booed him, and am not ashamed for doing so. It was NOT to get back at Carlton, it was because I boo every ex-Saint, whatever the reason for leaving. Maybe I'm too one-eyed for my own good, but I'll do what I damn well please. That's a bit harsh about Lappin...We sacked him! Hardly his fault...if ...

Geez, Dan...It's lucky that Pharlap is enclosed in a glass cabinet at Melbourne Museum otherwise you'd spend all day flogging him too!

Was there any need to open up a new thread on this when you've already raised the issue in the Buchannan thread?

Buckenarra.

He would have been kicking from well outside 50 but the 15m penalty made it a 40m kick. Gimme for him.

Pity really as that decision gifted Carlton the grand final. Melbourne would have been a real show that year.

My understanding of the three strikes policy for recreational drugs applie to out of season testing only.

If a player tests positive in season for recreational drugs he faces a 12 week ban.

If if tests positive to performance enhancing drugs, he is gone for two years...(either in or out of season).

The bottom end of our list, including some players that regularly play senior football are not good enough. We have a terrific top end of our list. That will win you some games but we are lacking players to step-up when our top liners have an off day. Look at the Aussie cricket side...They do not re...

The others I agree with but this is not true.

Max was fine...he was first injured in the pre-season well after Ross took over.

Attard is a promted Rookie therefore he cannot be delisted until the end of next season. He either gets promoted to the senior list or dropped back to the Rookie list. Brookes, Sweeney and Raymond should go. That's not my understanding of how the rookie list works. You are able to keep them for two...

Can't afford to carry a rookie? Our rookies are Clint Jones Luke van Rheenen Robert Eddy James Wall Jarryn Geary Jayden Attard Thanks for pointing out our rookies to those that didn't know. The rookie list should not be used to carry players with no output or hope for promotion. The rookies on this...

Let's hope Jayden makes a full and speedy recovery. Rookie list him if we must...but definitely not take him in the draft. Some good posts about Gehrig retiring - I'm starting to realise he's not going to be part of our next premiership, and that's what we have to aim for. I'd think about trading h...

Well only a minor miracle will see us in the eight. It is time to ponder the future of some of our players: Jason Blake I'm not really sure what purpose he serves in the team. His skills and pace are not as good enough to be on the ball. He is not big enough to be a defender. Matthew Clarke Ended up...
