Certainly not. We are best to remain at arms length from anything to do with Essendon.

Back to our game for a moment. I was there and have the feeling the A FL must be extremely disappointed that the umpiring was so poor that the scores were influenced. Surely the best result for this new venture would have been for a Saints win and the over umpiring/ poor decision making ( including ...

We were outmuscled before being outplayed last week. I expect that this week should be a more even contest and if we play really well we have a good chance of winning.

'Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist?"

Genius, and hopefully philanthropist

Arrived in Wellington on Sunday. Currently spending a couple of days up country then back to Wellington tomorrow for a few days. The Airport had banners up and a big screen advert.

The Footscray president said on 774 last week that he expects the next president will be Tom Rush QC who is now on the board

Again, I hope the betting mob will be checking into this match. The evening up f.rees late in the game were out on the wing and not much he,lp. To be fair, I think the bombers had such strength, in many cases, that they were able to fall/dive forward when tackled and bring their opponent down into t...

Thought the Fox commentary was worthy of a mention. It was probably the best I've seen on TV for some time. The talk wasn't continual and when the Bruce like statements were made there were explanations and even reruns to support them. The stuff about Roo's movements were clear and showed why he rea...

Is it right that the Dees have the worst training facilities in the afl?
And another point, they were beaten by a team whose players had 40 to 50 shots of something last year.
Maybe there is some hidden class there!

I had a good view and I reckon he believed he had marked it.

From my 2nd level seat in the forward pocket I could clearly align marks and 'incidents' with the goal and point posts. Our players were moved to tighter angles and the Tigers to more open angles several times. Also, the Tigers came over the mark several times, unfortunately, we don't seem to worry ...

Just imagine the implications for our team if Kosi was to be our best player this year, running rampant in the forward half, fed by our fleet of dynamic stars.

I have to agree. The size of the shoulders of some of the Swans were amazing.

Remember Cristine Nixon was crucified because she ate a meal

At what stage during the season did RL realise that Ball was in negotiations with the Pies?

I always believed it coincided with when beard growing gets going

You're just waiting for the one that has "I HATE KOZI" emblazoned across it like the soccer scarves.

NO! Judd does not have a 'K' in it. (Or an O, a Z or an I)

When I attempted to start a thread about Judd being the dirtest player to play AFL this century I was warned that Baker's admissions make that less likely. While I still believe Judd's behaviour to be particularly underhanded I am happy to let that one go. But now, Eddie Everywhere is carrying on a ...

Elbows - Big Carl

I feel we need to do what must be done to keep Ferguson. He may still be a bit light next year but he certainly is good.

They did look genuinely shattered though. The only way to stop the tanking debate is to have a lottery system for draft picks for teams outside the eight, have it on prime time TV during grand final week the night before or after the Brownlow. Perhaps the line could be drawn at the end of the 18th ...

'At least baker was open about it, Judd is sneaky'

Sneaky/dirty is what I meant. Judd has obviously studied sneaky ways to play dirty. Baker was a different sought who was pretty blatant about his methods, but also similar to several others.

I am really disappointed going to a game when Kosi is not playing as there is always that expectation that he will do something special and lift the crowd. Perhaps more regular small suspensions would enable him to recover from the bruising he also receives when he hands them out. He is still very i...

Just adding to the mix of next weekend against Carlton I pose this question.
Is Chris Judd the dirtiest player to play AFL his century (given the nature of his reports)?

It really is disappointing that we have a betting company as a sponsor.
I have not bought products with the centrebet logo on them.
