Actually, what Bigmart has just pointed out, is a major flaw (and again an unintended consequence from the masters of them). If a club recruit a free agaent, and lose no-one themselves, there is no penalty other than salary cap space paid by that club. However if you are unfortunate enough to lose ...

Nice little sneaky one there, bm. Almost got through unnoticed. Didn't pass me by. Well played.

I should collar you for encouraging him...

This thread is clearly influenced by the fact we have just sat through 8 weeks of electioneering and posturing for position...perhaps some potential whinging politicians on here also....

Record win against Port - so pleasing, considering they have been a bogey side for the last ten years. yeah, decent win, but let's not underplay how bad port were today. they're a bottom four side and they're playing like it. i'm not sure this game did anything at all to prepare us for real finals-...

I like your thinking....very clever.

Umpiring was terrible both ways. The AFL need to look objectively at the decisions being made and see if this is where they want the game to go.

Tackle = free kick all night.

Not sure why people find plugger66 so infuriating. Offers a different perspective and his posts are interesting enough. His sarcasm sometimes runs a bit thing but ah well better than 500 "FAIR DINKUM" blokes on the forum. Because he is re-active and not pro-active. Void of original though...

Yep. Word is we have been working on the "Magnum" all summer. We wont use it on match days until it is perfected. But if it is it will revolutionise the game. Even more so than the "Blue Steel Strangle" and the "Forward Press" of the 2009 Winter Catalogue. We'll need s...

Nervous early but had an awesome third quarter. There was a hawks fan sitting near me and he couldn't believe they let him go. Really happy with his game.

PAN -ICING :lol: I think it has 70% anticipation 25% fear and 5% hesitancy. :shock: All things considered it is a mixture that hopes there is more substance to the StKilda cake than a glossy 'icing' and a similar hope that everything will 'pan' out for the best in the end. Roll on September. Make t...

From these reports it looks like Gram, CJ, Blake, MIni and Ray have slight injuries and could miss this week. :lol: Very nice work Crap work. Wasn't there. He's an idiot. The board is a power trip not a fan site for him. Wake up! The sense of humour bypass was successful then Barrel, water, gun, bu...

I started here first, obviously the wrong way.... but enjoyed it eventually.

Imo Raph thinks he alot better than he actually is. Doesnt work hard enough when he hasnt got the ball & when he does have it doesnt know what to do with it. Way too casual in his approach to what is going to be a make or break year for him.He has talent to burn but he just hasnt got the dedica...

If the Government and its bureaucrats had kept it all low key in the first place, then they could just let it spread around the community and use the stockpile of anti-virals to treat those who get it. But what they've done is to massively build up a level of fear among the public that is way of ou...

He didn't win too many taps, (mind you following Gardiner's effort anything less than dominant would have been noticable), however I liked how he really made the effort to shepherd for our midfield.

Little things like workrate and effort will go a long way for him in the long run.

I blame the AFL for my lack of production at work today.

The weekend isn't over until the footy finishes.

If i ever got anything it would be small, significant and inconspicuous.

I'd say you'd already had something that ticked all those boxes

What is OP. Does it mean ordinary performance because RL thinks he has got it. osteidus pubis (apologies for spelling) Is the wearing of the pubic bone causing long term influmation and swelling.

Armitage we know, maybe a few games in row for Gwilt will determine his fate.

I don't mind leaving him in there.

Go the Gwilt, hope he takes his chance.

I'm serious though. These factors hype us too much. Creates too much silly expectation, the players forget the fundamental things of footy. Now all the expectation is off, you just go out and play some hardass nothing to lose football. IMO. So fans believing in an injury ravaged youngster has cause...
