no hope of winning this game, especially with Goodes playing and in great form. Sydney at full strength with Barry Hall back, and having the luxury of having Fosdike, Nick Davis, Crouch, Ben Matthews all playing in ressies and putting pressure on those in the 22 for spots... We will be lucky to kick...

McIntosh was taken in the 2002 draft by North with Pick 9 (the Saints traded pick 6 plus another for Brooks). We took Brooks for picks 6 & 31, not exactly one of GT's greatest moves. We could have had Salopek or McIntosh for pick 6, both of whom looking to have great careers ahead of them. Broo...

Great to see Fergo get a game - I haven't been a fan of his but am happy to see that he's got his chance to make me eat humble pie. Holland out for Melbourne - I think this is a sign that Robertson will be a late withdrawal for melborune, as Holland was a key target for them in the forward line and ...

I disagree that Clarkson has 'turned' Guerra around. When an AFL player gets delisted twice by the age of 23, he must pull his finger out. As the above cited article notes, after he got delisted he lost 5KG! Clarkson didn't magically make Guerra do this - he just manned up and realised his career co...
