The recruiters at the time thought he was an immature wanker (and he has admitted that he was) who would have been a gamble. McCartin was much better mentally and personality-wise. Oh well. (BTW who was the immature wanker we picked at #9 some years back. Perhaps that outcome was what spooked the re...

Perfectly acceptable to feel aggrieved when you're basically being discriminated against by your employer. It was clear he wasn't playing under the same selection rules as others. This was a personal conflict between player and coach that negatively affected the team. Good luck to him where ever he...

One has to imagine that when his career ends… Chances are he’ll be one that looks back and wishes he’d given more than he did. Reckon he does have the ability and talent to have been a top tier player… not elite but could have been good if he was fitter, worked harder on disposal and listened And w...

I missed seeing that one.

Couldn't get off work that weekend Saynta?

Interesting about Dunstan. I could have sworn I saw it reported he won’t be offered a new contract. Good if he stays. I rate him. He’s a good, strong inside mid. Perhaps Ratts thinks we have a surfeit of this type of player and prefers others if fit. Wouldn’t be surprised if he picks up a few Brown...

Billions!

Footscray will unexpectedly beat Melbourne to repeat the 1954 Grand Final.

Gees the Vikes are in for a long season. Crap.

SO after a touchdown you can kick an extra point (6 becomes 7) or if needed you can go for 2 points (6 becomes 8) by trying to score another "touchdown".

PAT - (extra) point after touchdown.

Yeah a good list I thought.

Now without the ocean of injuries we had this year, will Ratts give them a game? Some very difficult selection choices when you are trying to win every game.

Yes yes....I'm sure Ben is drooling over the idea of going backwards. He can't wait to come to St Kilda into his brothers shadow like the 19 years previous. Always second best, relegated to fullback. He is chomping to get back under Max and lose himself in being the "twin". Wake up! He wi...

I thought it was harsh - too bloody harsh.

Previous bans should drop off if you have been good for a year.

Lett him back. He wasn't a spiteful poster.

He is still covering his arse though I reckon. All football clubs have internal stories like that. Look at Hawthorn.

Malthouse covering his arse again. It is non-stop. God he is such a whiner and a revisionist.

Castration and a leg amputated.

AFL takes this very seriously.

Cooper possibly made it look too easy Sunday and selectors, whoever they are, under rate the Dockers' defence. Also he is simply not fashionable, just goes about it without any aggro, angst or style statement. The award's credibility takes a hit. But he wouldn't have won the year thing anyway - as ...

Ditto Dad.

Abs well done.

The parents of an 11 year old boy asked him what he wanted for his birthday.

He said "I wanna watch".

So they let him.

Though he'll more likely be at Lyon's side guiding the Blues into a GF within two years.

That would seriously piss me off

abs me too.
