Gwilt was actually pretty good on saturday! Besides Goodoes doing a couple of freaky things (which nobody could stop) He did a good job. He kicked 1 out of bounds on full in the 1st qtr but so did Lenny and 3-4 others and the ground was in such bad condition he slipped over with a big chunk of turf ...

Look, if Kosi had charged him like Lloyd, or Pickett from a few years ago, I would say he was an idiot and deserved the 4 weeks. His bump was well within the spirit of the game, it wasn't overly hard, but hard enough to put the swans player on his backside. No broken anything because it wasn't hard...

[ Kosi nailed a bloke when he had the choice of not doing so. He contacted his head and the player went off for it. He was nailed like a two-dolla thai hooker. Plugger66 is correct. Most people on here just dislike that we were penalised depite Kosi actually braking the laws of the game. Thats that...

Having only seen it on the replay -3 seems about right. He ran past the ball and collected Malcevski in the head. As for Hille????? Can someone tell me when it became illegal to 'run past the ball'? Its just another b/s new term like 'he chose to bump instead of tackle'. Its call a shepard or block...

Its been stated that Majceski wouldnt have been expecting contact, yet he was right in the contest, closer than 5m from the ball. I still hate all this you cant run past the ball to bump rubbish, your allowed to shepard for a teammate in a better position and thats what he did, and don't get me star...

Its amazing how smart people can be with hindsight.. along with self-righteousness it makes stinky brew.

winners only jumped out of this convo a while back it seems, and since he was on his own and no one agreed with him anyway this thread could probably go too..

but remember there have been some funny ones over the years on this topic - people wrongly assumed choco williams to be of some aboriginal descent - it was later learnt he had an ancestor from the west indies. but the funniest one was kevin sheedy picking daniel kerr in his aboriginal all stars tea...

Was browsing the merch catalogue that came with my membership stuff. Took a fancy to that "Saints" red hoodie in the leisurewear section...but $90.00?? and its 'lightweight"? Is that a bit over the odds fashionistas or should I get into the real world and stop clothes shopping at Bes...

They also wanted to get Jesse Smith so thats tells you something too..

Pattison couldn't get a kick in a kung fu fight. Richmond didn't want him. Why, Why, Why did we select him. Would have thought our ruck stocks were OK. another speed demon would have been the order of the day surely ! so we only recruit players based on the club they come from?interesting.....hope ...

During trade week i defended Ball's decision to request a trade and that he shouldn't be booed for it but now............. His behaviour along with his diabolical manager these past few weeks has been nothing short of disgraceful for what was an all australian and club captain!! Not to mention the a...

Why don't you put a stop to this - it is nothing more than a post building exercise for certain posters on this site. 90% is just trash.

I second that.

I certainly hope these people aren't all grown men..

opps, wrong forum, sorry.

that's about 10 GOP's we are supposedly in the running for now and the draft is still weeks away. :roll: Isn't that part of the fun of a forum? discussing all players that become available.. not picking them all up but just getting people's opinions? Personally, I don't think we'll pick up any recy...

Tim Pekin finished about top in AFL in handballs a couple of years. Very solid for us.

In: Pekin
Out: Fiora

Maybe even Harding for King too.

Good topic idea tho..

Throw enough and something will eventually stick.

enough gossip mongering already.. its like bold and the beautiful on this site sometimes.

lets actually wait for the real facts to come out.. well thats what i heard 3rd hand from my sisters husbands apprentice who's name was mario winmar... geez people..

I dont get what all the fuss is about either... -we offered a contract, -ball turned it down, -we put those funds towards other players, -Ball chooses a top 4 competitor that he wants to join, -That team offer us crap all in return for him so we turn it down, -Ball either comes back to our team or g...

we should be livid at collingwood! We must try and get Ball back in the fold, we can mend this!

Man I hope we get him

The end for Goose, you'd think?

Or Raph?

Would he not be directly competing for that spot?

nope. brown is a key position player. raph is a running flanker.

I (not N.Brown) knew someone would pick up on that! lol.

we need another key defender but i was thinking thru the draft not in a swap for Ball. I might be a good young player but where does he fit in? Will he displace Dawsone or Blake? What does this mean got Goose? hmmmm... It may work if we make another trade or so before the end of the day to balance u...
