As much as I love him, structurally Chips is one player we could afford to lose. Don't take this the wrong way, but with Gilbert, Goose, Allen, Gram and BJ all young and capable of providing run from the backline (as well as playing tall), we certainly have the depth in this area. Knights + 2nd rou...

You would think that what Hawthorn has done has breached the TV Broadcast agreement and therefore the AFL needs to act strongly and quickly. If you have a party/parties contributing 700+ million (or whatever it is) over 3-5 years there are obviously strict guidelines in place and each club will be w...

BB, plugger always gave his all on the field. Not sure Fev can claim that or can be compared to a Legend of the game. Where the Blues stand now I would trade him only if you can get the right return. Say the Bulldogs give up their first round pick and a decent young player with potential (say Farren...

I'm coming about 15th or 16th in St Kilda supporters and about 400th overall. Got as high as 121 overall but lost a few players and decided to save my trades for finals. I'm in a league with mates and we sledge the hell out of each other. Won my first final by about 280 points. Have four trades left...

MM, I agree with your last comment, on both men. JB, I don't doubt either GT potting the administration when the mic's are off either. I'm sure plenty goes on both ways. It usually happens when a coach is sacked. I'm sure Blight was potting the admin too. His mates certainly were. I don't get what ...

I disagree MM. I think Rod's got Caro's number on speed dial. Of course I can't prove that but years of her reporting on the subject lead me to that suspicion.

blah blah blah. The debate predictably turns to a stoush between those defending GT vs those ripping shreads off him . I personally couldn't give a toss about Thomas and his claims.

Not if you have any concerns with "little jim" Archie Fraser.
He is Jim's boy and will not be going anywhere if Jim is a St Kilda Board member.

Also to link Jim leaving the Full time AFL position and the St kilda board is a long long bow IMO.

More than likely I'd suggest he is starting to feel the effect of the workload he has carried in the midfield this season. At 35 years of age he should be a permanent forward with bursts in the midfield or running off the bench. The fact that our prime midfielders apart from Joey have been below the...

Was it Mark jacko Jackson?
Not sure if he got a ten but I think he may of.

Pretty sure Buckets didn't get a ten and I remember Nicky kicking 9 I think against Melbourne at the G a game when Plugger was out.

I doubt Mark Scott or Shane Grambeau :lol: kicked a ten.

So Jacko it is form me.
