Re: Delahunty quote

[quote="QuestionOfAccuracy"]Another nice PR win for the club, but I'm most disappointed that the players missed out on a proper hit out prior to round 1. Time is running out to get proper game time into the players prior to the Port Adelaide clash.[/quote] Think about where Essendon are at...

The award is for the best and fairest of that particular year, it completely ignores all other years. Mitchell was given one week for his actions this year, it was only his good track record from other years that enabled him to drop the suspension. All this talk about whether he should have been eli...

I, like others have shut out most of the grand finals. However, the one thing I think about a lot is the kick Fisher had that Maxwell marked, resulting in a Collingwood goal... I don't know if I have completely conjured this up, but I swear I saw Kosi on his own about 70 from our goal on the other s...

Baker got the same last year for slapping Johnson's hand. It's a farce. Kosi got more for a tackle.

McPhee's action on Friday cannot be excused, he lined Gilbert up from 15 metres away, he wanted to hurt Gilbert and his actions was exactly what he wanted to happen. A week, bloody hell.

I've heard doctors state that there is no varying degree of concussion that can be seen immediately after impact. You are either concussed or not. I've also heard them state that no matter what, if a player is concussed they will not be allowed to continue, reasoning being that their health takes pr...

Need to get the poor ball users out of the team, cannot afford to take players into the side who can't deliver a decent kick consistently.

Roo goals though, good signs from him, got to keep him in the play though, up to the midfield now

Listening to the radio coverage... Sounds like Melbourne dominated the last 15 minutes of the quarter, thanks to some poor, simple mistakes.

Gilbert is a confidence player, and right now, is seems like his confidence is completely shot right now.

Thing is, good teams find a way to win the close games, no matter whether they're playing the worst footy of the year or the best. No matter what the odds, you can always tell who the good teams are based on how they respond when they're against it. Being unlucky really doesn't matter because the te...

I'd much rather Baker in the side at this point to be honest, just look at what he brings to the side.
