Like many I would like to see the club resurrect the games in China, but if it does happen I don't want that f/wit kok involved, unless of course the Chinese government can dig up some disparaging remarks he may have made about their current regime and decide to detain him as a political...

I thought Evans was a chance to be picked up by the club late or possibly even as a rookie in the 2024 draft, so I'm assuming they thought the risk of losing him before he got to a pick they were prepared to use was too high, hence his selection last night. I suspect it's highly unlikely he...

I have nothing against Logan Evans, but why pick yet another half back flanker and particularly one who is already available to us when it's obvious the Maggies are in dire need of a midfielder to help them be more competitive. Unfortunately under this current regime if shooting yourself in...

Please excuse the intrusion, I don't know if this is common knowledge but there is a death notice in today's Adelaide Advertiser for Malcolm Hill. I met the bloke many years ago when he transferred to SA, he was a Hawthorn player in the 1960's who I believe played in a premiership team for your...

The recent wins over the vfl and the wafl could suggest the sanfl is a much stronger comp than some on here want to accept, and I'm definitely in favour of leaving it for a national reserve's comp when that eventually happens, but apparently it is still some years away. These current and all...

Holding the ball is definitely being interpreted differently (again) so far this year, but it's just about a certainty later in the season or possibly as late as finals the scumps will eventually pay those where a bloke is tackled fairly, has prior opportunity, and then just drops the ball at...

Maybe the chairman is all koch and no balls.

Agreed, like no doubt many I had been very much in favour of Israel and what it originally stood for, but this indiscriminate killing of children and innocent civilians has to stop. The Israeli forces have now wiped out many multiples of Palestinians than the number of their citizens who were...

I like the sound of what Kobe Ryan could bring to the table, but with the tingles short on midfielders and having a pick before us I suspect they may get to him first.

Regardless of any clause in their contract it's mind boggling that no-one on the board has been prepared to call kok out for weak sh*t like that, plus as has already been suggested his reaction to being stomped on like a cockroach by the coach's spouse was to continue to give the family another...

Norf are absolutely woeful and it won't surprise me greatly if Clarkson doesn't see out his contract with them, he looked very tired in the few minutes of his presser I watched, and I don't know if it is still ongoing but maybe the pressure of the racism saga from his hawk's days is getting to him.

I avoid reality tv as much as possible, but how Julia Morris keeps getting those gigs unfortunately epitomises how low the talent level must be. She has a head that should only be suitable for radio, and her so called humour is primary school stuff.

Sean Burgoyne said in a game I watched recently when a player did the Tommy Jonas double fist bit that if someone can get both hands to the ball they should be able to mark it. Their paths should have definitely crossed during TJ's last few years at Alberton so you would have to wonder if SB...

It's been a long time since Ollie Wines has been a reliable set shot for goal (if arguably ever), but he has kicked 3 in the last few weeks including those two nice goals from about 40-45 metres out against norf. Kicking has always been his achilles heel, I can recall when he was running...

You may know whether this is true or not LR but there have been rumours Donna has never attended an official club function and may be the first wife of a coach in the club's AFL history not to do so, and it could possibly go even further back than that. Not that I could blame her, but if as...
