How come the Round 15 game has been switched from the Dome to the MCG, my earlier fixture has it at the TD but my latest one from the NAB Cup footy record has us playing at the G?

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

So from what I can gather, buying a membership wont really help me if i'm buying a ticket for my girlfriend and I should just get two reserved seats through ticketek or whatever.

Regardless, i'm gonna buy a new membership soon and i'll be at the game, Cheers!

Having an expansion draft really isn't a big deal. the club protects its best 10 players and then its what-ever goes. Happens in the NBA every so often when a new team/franchise is created.

Knowles plays for the Belconnen magpies in the ACTAFL - I believe he is captain/coach of the club. Before Belconnen, he was captain/coaching at Ainslie. He also plays first grade cricket in Canberra's cricket league, and is one of the best batsmen in the league.

Don't know about 'not holding a key position down' - he was our Full Foward, and mainly got his goals from a quick lead. Was one of the best shots for goal accuracy wise I have ever seen - always felt safe with the ball in his hands, would consistently get them from 50+m out. Really he career ended ...

Wow, what a joke.

i'm not being biased here, but Tom William played around two good games all year. Gilbert was consistently in our best (Well at least in my opinion in the second half of the year).

Re: Feels really similar to 1999 under Tim Watson

I can see where you are coming from Everton, but they are completely contrasting seasons - In 1999, we had a solid first half of the season, before losing i think 7 of 8. That was a meltdown... This year, we never really got going momentum wise. We are last years Geelong - not going to say we will w...

Re: Paul hasleby

Hasleby has been plagued by OP for the last two years, thus his performances have suffered.

He's a top 50 AFL player when fit - he will tear it up next year, but no chance of getting him to the saints.

I would take him for a second rounder, but i'm sure he doesn't want to leave.
