I would love to see Kelly at the club but he will cost at least 2 first round picks. So that should be our primary objective, throw a silly money offer at Dusty too just to see if he bites for FA. With all the extra money floating around everybody will be in the market. So I thimk we will need to tr...

Brisbane and Gold Coast are likely to finish bottom 2. Carlton may also finish below Hawthorn. I would not be surprised if the AFL give the Lions a priority pick so they get pick 1 and 2. They could also get a compensation pick for Rockliff for picks 1 2 and 3. So either pick 5 or 6 to us seems not ...

I thought that meant. "Son of a bloke the chief recruiter owes money to."

I love to see the comments from everyone on here who obviously know Brad Johnson personally judging by their assessment of him being too nice to be of any use. I don't know him, I only know his media image he could be a complete bastard and hard as nails behind the smile and if Aker is to be believe...

I hope they do win this year under MM because then Bucks can only fail. In order to replace a coach the incoming coach has to improve the performance of the side otherwise he is by definition a failure. So unless Buckley can get the Pies to win every single game by record margins and then win the ne...

The bit I don't understand is everyone keeps saying he exercised a get out clause in his contract. All well and good if true but if as reported he exercised his three month get out clause why is he now not on three months gardening leave. He took up with Freo immediately rather than giving 3 months ...

From what I have seen he is more of an athlete than he is a footballer. However, for a big man he is still quite young so will get at least a couple of more years to prove himself. Yet to start really performing consistently at Sandy so no where near ready for AFL level.

We would have won at least 4 premierships, 3 NRL championships, 2 Triple Crowns, a Melbourne Cup and the Nobel prize for Literature.

Saints - This year we're keeping it in our pants.

Saints - Move along, nothing to see here.

I am sorry but I just don't believe you. If you had really gone to Ikea you would be stuck in there until Tuesday at the earliest.

I purchased my tickets online very easily yesterday and received my confirmation email almost immediately. I still have not received the ticket email and we are now talking over 24 hours ago. Interestingly, straight after I got confirmation of my order I bought parking through Ticketmaster too, the ...

If they offer him a shed load more cash than we do, then who could blame him if he goes. It is the same for all of us our number 1 priority is to ourselves and our families with the employer coming after that. If a different employer improves things significantly for ourselves and our families then ...

agreed eastern pretty serious condition cant say he is going to lead us to a flag so sandy seniors next week and see how he pulls up you just dont go rushing youth back into a side when theyve come off a serious injury and they are part of the future id be happy to see him stay at sandy get thru it...

The biggest problem is the game plan at the moment. Roo was on a hiding to nothing as soon as Ross decided to overload on the defense and play with an outnumbered forward line. He had two on him all night because we play with free men patrolling the back half leaving us short up front. We basically ...

^^^^ Good post We are a different team now, much more settled, composed and optimistic. If we cant beat the bommers, we souldn't be in the finals. I agree that they probably have the psychological edge, but our defensive structures are much more solid now and, as good as hurley is, like to see him ...

I just hope we don't get them as we simply do not match up against them at all and will get our arses handed to us on a plate if we do.

C'Mon guys, get some perspective. Even if we won it would have meant nothing. Collingwood and probably Geelong would have changed their training schedules and have been doing some heavy loading over the past few weeks to ripen for the finals. They can afford to do so, they have one and two wrapped ...

The coach must take responsibility for the game day performance of the team as a whole. That is why he is paid the large salary he gets. If he did not want to be held directly responsible then he should not have accepted the position in the first place. If a companies share price drops severely it i...

This is the worst game to bring Baker back. He can only play on Ballantyne and there is a good chance at some stage Bakes will clock the little pest. He will get rubbed out.

There is no way in hell Milney will ever be given the reigns as an AFL coach. Why not? Maybe the voice. However that's simply being voiceist and such a thing is not acceptable in today's modern society :wink: In the modern world where PR is so important, only St Kilda would ever give a player as ha...

If Rhys Stanley is the player we lose to GWS I would be over the moon as it would mean no important player could be targeted directly.

I'm all for joining, but I feel that my membership fee is merely a donation in exchange for a seat at an entertainment complex. Surely you join a club to be part of something? I've been a consecutive member for over 20 years, and the feeling of club has slowly - but clearly - dissipated rapidly. Ev...

The social club membership is now nothing more than a buy option for tickets should we make the Grand final. My father has scrapped his membership because he is now 70 and struggles to make it up to the third tier. We could get reserved seats but for the three of us who used to go together that is a...

I can't see that it would be easy to get a conviction as from what has been reported so far it is all very "He says, she says". When this case is over I hope that is the end of it and everyone can move on. If he is found not guilty I really hope that he can move on with his life without th...

No I don't believe you need to bottom out for 4 years but at least 2. Collingwood bottomed out for 2, West Coast for 3 it is a valid way of rebuilding.
