Many Hawks and Cats could have left for more money...but they didn't...respect.
Lance Franklin and Dermott Brereton come to mind. Half the current Hawks list and a fair bit of geelongs have come from other clubs.

Wet weather footy

There is a good chance that Friday night is going to be very wet. I'm not sure how this will influence the outcome. It used to be that people thought it favoured teams with a lower skill level as it brought the other team back to them. I don't think this is the case anymore, Hawthorn plays very good...

Re: Flog Maher bags "only 9,800 members" in attendance

Well myself and the missus are members and went to the game, but won't be counted in the tally because we have other tickets that we use instead of our memberships. Same when we play at MCG and use MCC instead of membership to attend. The 9,800 is a good indication, but not a definitive figure. A th...

Re: LED lighting/Free WiFi/TV screens/Food discussion

Just got home from my third game of footy for the weekend, and it was interesting to see the different "match day experiences". If people don't like the loud gimmicks, I suggest avoiding Carlton home games, they have a very loud "blue man" robot thing after every goal. Luckily di...

Bergholt - how many people bet on the outcome of your work though??? So you think the umpires or friends bet on GWS so they cheated to make sure they won? That is even bigger news. That will be on the first 5 pages of the paper and head every news bulletin tonight I would think if you are right. No...

Re: Bumped

Should have been end of first round. But players values always get over-inflated when they are up for trade. Problem is there are limited brackets for players to fit into. Franklin and Goddard are obviously band 1 compo, someone like Frawley should be band 2 (IMHO). Don't have a problem with band 1 ...

His year was quite comparable Dan Hannerbery, Kieran Jack, Ryan Griffen, Jared McVeigh and Sam Mitchell. I didn't see too much of Travis Boak, so can't comment on him. R...

Surely you are joking if you think the location of a training base has any effect on us getting a major sponsor.

Here's a question for the "little person". Is it true that after being "lit on fire" you asked for the lighter then proceeded to continue the fun by lighting the shirt of one of the footballers? Not all is as it seems.
