Ther are around 600 players on club lists (16 clubs x 39).
The average career is less than 5 seasons.

So a minimum of 120 players drop out of the system each year.

Plenty of talk about tanking to secure the #1 pick at the moment. The mythical belief is that a club will pick up a "superstar" with their first pick, who will lead them into a glorious golden era of silverware. FACT There has been 21 drafts. 21 first picks. Only 2 have won premierships. A...

I believe we were in the top four all season long and never really looked like missing out. I think we finished 14-4 in an 18 match season. I recall that we lost to Collingwood, Essendon, Carlton and maybe Geelong at Kardinia Park? Hope someone else has the correct details? We actually beat Essendo...

Like Fitzroy,
they will finish their careers in the cultural wilderness of the WACA.

... and a good way to snuff out Buckley's career

But after a bit of a breakout experience last week, the "Classical Gas" guy was back to playing what he knows best.


Classical Gas.

Again
And again.
And again.

Great stuff.

Shame that Dylan got it wrong.
Rubin carter turned out to not be quite as innocent as claimed.

That ridiculous 50m penalty didn't help. :evil: Fact is WCE are the benchmark. We came up short. But not by much . And with players missing. So I totally disagree with posters saying we are not worthy of making the 8. We can still make it. And if so we can still do some damage in the first 2 weeks.

Seeing Cousins play so well in the second half was nauseating.

The man is piece of low-life scum.

A drug abuser.
A serial pisshead.
A known associate of criminals.

He is a tainted person.
And he carries a tainted premiership medallion won under false pretences.

Basically a turd of a human being.

The Banner was great.

But showing it during the 1/4 breaks wasn't so effectual.

We needed it held high during the play so the cameras saw it.
The AFL will only get embarassed if it is shown on TV.

Well it worked perfectly for Alan Bond

Archie Fraser was good enough to reply to my e-mail posted above .... I have highlighted his key point. And whilst still fuming at the injustice of this process I think it is time to move on. Focus our anger to success on the field. ================================ David, First of all thank you for ...

Just resent to direct to Archie.

Have just sent this e-mail (below) to the club at "reception@saints.com.au" Is there a better e-mail address ? I urge all Saints fans to similarly lobby the club to DO SOMETHING !! ============================= Please pass on this message to Archie Fraser and Rod Butterss. Gentleman, I ur...

Camera often goes 3rd level when their are banners up there. Burkey's last game it had every banner made put on camera. You are missing the point. The networks will not deliberately show banners that criticise the AFL. I believe part of the rights deal is to promote the game. So they will not telec...

They won't be seen on the MW.

You need to get in the first row behind either city side point post.
That favours the camera angles.

Then hold them up when someone shoots for goal.

That way a million people will see them.

1) 100+kg of Allessio stands on Baker's shin bone leaving stop marks. Bakes instinctively attempts to push him off with the other leg and gets charged and suspended for "kicking". 2) Baker swings fist, doesn't connect, gets suspended for "attempting" to strike. 3) Baker gets 7 we...

Who sat on the tribunal ?

What are their names ?

Where do they live ?

What are their phone numbers ?

Where do they work ?

Where do they garage their cars ?

Scrap your banner.

Just make up a big banner with the word

SHAME

We used to worship him. He was our shining light. The player with the greatest talents ever. But he has shunned us. Turned his back on us. Let's not make the Richmond "KB" mistake where they have spent 15 years pandering to sooky-sooky KB to try to get him back in the fold. They would have...

If his appeal fails .... Why not hang some banners on the front row of level 3 behind the goals - ie in full camera view - with some blunt messages. "Tribunal a sham" "Baker crucified" "Suspend Dimwit" "7 weeks for what?" "Innocent till proven guilty"...
