Sorry if there is another thread about this, but how is Mini's head still attached to his body? He put it in places where it didn't belong time and time again. A great platform for the young boy to start from for the rest of his career, let's hope he can keep improving and gets an extended run in th...

underpreforming?!?! Dal's averaging 22 disposals and 4 tackles and 4 inside 50's a week, plus has 8 goals and 7 goal assists if thats underpreforming and constitues being dropped, then EVERY player barre Lenny Hayes and Sam Fisher are lucky to be playing this week worst decision ever. Surely that i...

And need I say it again, Baker has the same injury that Hamill had (has). The type of injury may be similar, but they happened in 2 completely different knees, so the outcomes will be very different. I personally have not heard that Baker's injury like Hamill's was. I have not heard that Baker's kn...

Who are the players you feel comfortable with, with ball in hand taking a set shot?

I have 3...Birss, Schneider and Fraze (when fit). The rest is a lottery.

out blake havent given it much thought as to an in to replace him to become an elite team we need 22 solid players who dont create hospital passes through both kicking and handballing...a basic facet of the game he fails With Goose out all year, Blake must stay in and play CHB. Defensively he is a ...

Why have you all got it in for Dempster? He didn't have a bad game there were about 12 worse players than him!! It's not all about stats but here are his from Friday! 13 kicks, 8 HB, 21 P, 7 Ma, 2 Tac, 3 FF, 1 FA Not too bad I think!!! Wow, we must have been watching a different game. I thought Dem...

Brilliant...

Great to hear the youngsters doing well. However, considering we are playing Friday night, how many will come in...surely we don't want too many coming off a 4.5 day break.

Goose, To this day I can still shut my eyes and see you bursting through the middle of the MCG on a beautiful, sunny Melbourne afternoon kicking those long, straight, team lifting goals. Best of luck with the recovery mate, no matter what happens we'll all remember you as a tough, fearless and most ...

Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere, but do we know whether the injury was from one incident during the Tigers game or is it stress related as his other foot injuries have been?

Spot on.

It was a tackle deserving of a free kick...which is what we got.

You can't cite every player who causes an injury in a tackle.

Yeah, they got me all inspired at a time when I thought we were gone.

Geez people are harsh on Blake. I thought he was one of the reasons we were able to stem the tide against Essendon last week. When he moved into the ruck he competed brilliantly against Hille and Laycock who were dominating. I'd rather him compete against Lade/Brogan then do some work around the gro...

genuine hard men means what these days? its not like back in the 70's where they could go around whacking blokes any of the 22 players could have and should have flown the flag and i don't think Geelong have any hard men either, whats "hard" about tripping a bloke :roll: also, did anyone ...

Just thought I would let you know that my optometrist told me she treated X in Alice Springs. He is very short-sighted and wears contact lenses when playing. She treated him when he was being "scouted" by AFL recruiters. He was wearing glasses and his management took him into get contacts...

Fair point.

There is no player in the AFL who is at 100% every week. well then instead of 95%, he'll be 85% and instead of 85%, he'll be 75% has the whole Luke Ball ordeal taught us nothing....? Don't fret too much. From the explanation the club gave of his injury, it won't be anything like a Luke Ball injury....

huh? Who would go holidaying when the footy season starts? :shock: Some people. If my gf wanted to go away this weekend, shed be flying solo!! People with children. One day when you actualy manage to have some you may realise there is more to life than a bloody football match :roll: :roll: Our peop...

Lyon says, "The reality is..." too much. But he can coach, so points to him.

There must be something wrong with the way players are treated in the off season. More likely just horrible luck rather than off season managment. This season already has been crazy but it probably balances out last year where there was only 2 in the season proper (and I think 2 in pre season - Tho...

Read the article again and you will answer your own question.

Wouldn't mind that headline if it was a Carlton vs Collingwood game.

Only joking, that would mean we'd have to move somewhere else for the remainder of the season!
