Re: Is Tanking OK in the NAB cup?

Andrew was right after all. There is no such thing as tanking, yet poor Dean and Chris are suspended from duty and Melbourne are half a mil poorer. I PMSL. Who knows anymore. There are too many cases to mention of teams 'giving up' - remember Choco declaring Port's season over at half way when Port ...

Re: Scott replaces kosi- On the Couch

Scott mentioned that decisions will be made at the end of the year regarding list management with a view to solving deficiencies to get us back to top four. He already knows who he is keeping/getting rid of imo - hopefully a good old fashioned cleanout will occur and I can support a young, enthusias...

Agree, but we did beat them in the '97 prelim so we do have the edge.

Re: Sledging: What's acceptable nowadays?

What about the gingas like Lingy - vilified for all eternity about his genes i.e not deserving head high free kicks, fanta pants, sauce, bluey, carrot top. They cop it all the time those blokes and we as a society think it's piss funny. Well, when you think about it - is it? When you compare it to o...

Re: Saints v Crows - preview & discussion

By far our most important game of the season to date. A win and anything is possible keeps us within a game of top 4 . A loss and will make no impact come September! As they say a season defining game. I also think this outcome may decide the futures of many players and future direction of the club...

Re: What's an acceptable loss against Carlton?

We can be cheeky against the Blues - they werent' too impressive against the GWS today. We will have learnt a few things that went against us playing Hawthorn and come out with all guns blazing. Will Gwilt come back earlier now that Chips has gone down? Maybe time to bring him in. Carlton won't be p...

Re: Wilkes BS

My take is that Watters was happy for Wilkes to come off regardless and that is why he told the porky. He assessed his stats up to that point, and aside from the goals he kicked, he didn't get/command enough of the footy for the time he was on the ground. Polo was serviceable with run in his legs in...

Re: Doomsdayers, Naysayers, Worry Warts, The Sky is falling.

We will finish between 11th and 13th IMHO. Too many clubs have spent longer developing and exposing younger players over the past few years. As other's have pointed out, our guns are a year older and our juniors aren't as developed as other clubs that have now passed us. We need sharp improvement fr...

On a scale of one to ten, I'd give her one. Certainly wouldn't kick her out of bed for excess flatulence.
