I think its because they are Geelong and will probably blow it again during the finals. That's it: some sense at last!! Some of you young fellers are trying to bring recent history into it. The reason everyone - not just St Kilda fans - hates Geelong is because they are, and have always been, L.O.S...

Great post sRr. Really, the list doesn't sound half as bad as some people think it is when you go through player by player. But, as you said, in 2008 we need Ball to get properly fit again, we need NDS to get back to his best form and we desperately need McQualter and Armitage to step up (or ship ou...

I hate John Howard like poison, but the way B4E goes on I almost feel embarrassed to feel that way.

I continue to believe strongly that the decision to sack GT last year was misguided and totally wrong. Does this mean that I "sympathise" with GT? I have never met the man and have mixed feelings about what I have seen of his personaility as it has come across in the media: especially late...

Perhaps it's "Rossy" still trying to persuade Fraser to play on in 2008?

Kosi 6'5" at best.....

Mightn't sound like alot.....but trust me its enough 2 make a big difference

As Mae West once said, "let's forget about the 6 feet and concentrate on the 7 inches".

http://www.realfooty.com.au/news/news/thomas-hits-saints-with-legal-action/2007/09/05/1188783319891.html Nothing about Bedwell being involved. GT is continuing to make trouble. The challenge continues to sound highly credible. It sounds like Butterss is going to have to be dragged out kicking and sc...

It's astonishing that the Pies continue to pull such big crowds to their games. Yep and consistently as well. Keep bagging Eddie. Like some of u say, if only u had a pres who was prepared to do the same. Nough said!!! :evil: :evil: :evil: Ah, now I understand! They don't come to watch the inept rub...

I guess that really shows that Collingwood have played really well as a team with all of them contributing to winning games of footy Or that they are a mediocre team that has made the finals purely by dint of an exceedingly soft draw. And I think my explanation is the correct one. The problem with ...

How about these three terrific quotes from that master of deadpan comedy, Andrew Demetriou. "I've got no doubt they'll be trying this week, I've got no doubt they'll be trying the next week." (Re Carlton in 2007) "The question for the AFL this week has been: Are you doing anything to ...

If Kosi genuinely wants to go to Carlton, they don't have to give us anyone, do they? Yes. Richmond would have first dibs at him in the draft if we didn't trade him. Of course, how silly of me, I was giving the Blues a priority pick in the PSD!! :oops: Well, in that case, we'd be better doing a swa...

I mean, you can say we had shaky games against the Blues, Pies, Dogs and Tigers .... But at leasty in shaky games you are in with a chance to win. If you are getting blown away when you lose, you don't give yourself a chance to win. Fair enough, but if we'd been blown away by the Blues, Tigers or (...

We genuinely should have won them all That is exactly why the second half of the season was good. Ask yourself this: Since the streak in '04, how often have we been in a position where we can correctly say that we should have won 11 in a row? IMO never. The very fact that we were in 11 matches righ...

Pick 6 and 31 for Brooks McIntosh + one of the Selwood brothers or Brooks Just one example of how we stuffed up our recruting and there are many, many others We had pick 6 in the draft and gave it away for what? and we threw in a second round selection 31 as if 6 wasn't enough for Brooks FAIR DINKU...

I must say that the selection of Hayden ahead of any number of others is pretty mystifying. Shaw would be far better value. Re: Dal Santo, Kerr and Lappin. I know none of them had their best seasons, and that Lockyer had a pretty good season, but the All-Australian process is about choosing a team: ...

It's actually quite a well-written article: sort of moving in a way.

But I'm not quite sure about "chiselled Adonis": Fraser has a very impressive body, but I don't think his face quite has the "glorious beauty" of the Adonis of Greek Myth!!

no rookies except for Allan Murray for five years Josh Dicketts, Ben Schwarze, Chris Jones, Jordan Barham, Dylan Pfitzner, Nick Stone, Luke Mullins, Edward McDonnell and Cathal Corr. Pray tell me what all these guys were doing at the club? The idea that we didn't have any rookies under GT is a myth...

Fair dinkum I have almost had enough of the sad sacks on this forum, you almost thrive on the sains failing so you can come on here and have a rant.

Under the board of president Rod Butterss the club has returned four consecutive profits of more than $1 million and is yet to knock back an expenditure request from the football department . Can somebody explain to me what Smith means here? My understanding is that one of the main beefs about Butt...

Is it just me, or are there other posters on here who just can't understand the point of these sort of threads? What earthly purpose can be served by discussing the merits of trading players who nobody else would want or else are so good our club wouldn't let go in a purple fit for players from othe...
