Collingwood first. They are the biggest threat going to us til then. Then Essendon I believe. Have the run and carry to break down our defence, and usually play pretty well against us. Carlton can still turn up on their day, but I think we still have their measure. Should win the rest comfortably. ...

If I remember correctly Plympton handed the job over to Rod. It was a smooth transition with Rod being mentored by him. . I am a bit older than some on this site, and it is not what I recall so I googled some articles. Butters and thomas joined in 99, formed a group of directors from within the boa...

Well not putting money in is better than taking money out of the club like some current directors... If even if it is for services provided. (100,000 last year paid to Levin and Gdanski) And if you or I went out to use the same legal services, the fee would have been 500 grand ... . I agree . This ...

Surely Robert Eddy is in front of X
X has good form at aami stadium...eddy is slow, dont need those types against port.
