Strong rumour that certain News Ltd journos are lobbying the AFL for the release of Ben Cousins to play in the VAFA, possibly with an inner-city club. Stay tuned...
Pipe down rub-a-dub, it's November. How would I know where the teams will end up?
Agree there aren't massive differences between D1 and D2, but my experience has shown that promoted teams need to keep recruiting quality to move up the grades. Have Werribee and St Leos done that? F*cked if I...
End of regular season only, who knows what the finals will bring...
1. NOBS
2. Fitzroy
3. Whitefriars
4. Rupertswood
5. Old Mentonians
6. Sth Melb
7. Prahran
8. Aquinas
9. Werribee
10. St Leos Emmaus
Why the above? Because I can and it's the interweb and I can write whatever I want and call it...
A steaming pile of dog turds would've been a better surface than Whitefriars in 2007. No offence. None taken? Good.
This time of year sucks. Cricket (which is looking crap already) hasn't started, no footy, only the ponies and dishlickers.
The Reds got caught up in the sub-prime mess like many other clubs with multi-national investment portfolios HBP. I believe our llama ranch in Argentina is still going great guns though.
Turning to on-field rumour-mongering now, are there any coaching/player movements for 09 worth talking about?
What are you implying Half Back Pocket? It's D1 Ammos for f*cks sake, we're not playing for sheep stations. Go accuse St Bede's Mentone or one of the private schools for their "expenses", not Fitzroy.
Live in Fawkner, barrack for St Kilda... what a winning combination.
As long as the Reds beat Peninsula this year... oh... that's right: Pirates sunk!
Onward and upward in mind, body & spirit.
It's early days yet Jack, it's early days.
Been months since I've been on BF, what else has been going on?
Enough pillow talk from you Marcou, time for this weeks tips.
NOBs vs Old Mentonians
Old Geelong v Prahran
Peninsula v Yarra Valley
Bulleen Temp v Sth Melb
Fitzroy v Aquinas
Well whaddaya know, it's all home teams.
Keep on truckin'.
Yes, just a stirrer. In all seriousness, C-grade sounds intriguing in 2008. Pretty even and when there's key injuries, watch them take their toll. Nothing unusual in that though.
Carry on.

Reds vs Aquinas this week at the Heritage Oval. It'll be a battle of the artists vs the emos. I pick the Reds in a dazzling display of post-modern avant-garde impressionism coupled with expansive brush strokes and haunting...
Geez it doesn't take long for the ol' "let's bag Ajax" banter to start. Round 2, sooner than I expected.
Rupertswood sounds like a forest for teddy bears. I also used to hate playing against Ajax because (and this is a fact), the umpiring was terribly lopsided in their favour.
Sounds like C...
How about that local sporting team? They're doing well, aren't they?
Twas a cracking day weather-wise for footyball on Saturday, and I hear it's meant to be mild for this weekend too. How delightful!
Hoo-rah!
Round 1 BS, need to keep that in mind. Fitzroy had several regular 1s players unavailable or injured that will be making a welcome return soon. Also, NOBs came down from C too, remember?

Vale to 'Jock Cheese', immortal and key member of the Melbourne band TISM, who died yesterday after a battle with cancer.

Scribe is correct, Fitzroy are missing key players and it will be exceptionally tough. Will watch with interest how Old Mentonians and South Melbourne go this week.
What sheep stations are we playing for this week? Ah that's right, Collingwood Childrens Farm this week. The property value alone...
Bill, Bob, Ben, Barry, Bevan, Boris, Arthur, Wilfred, Archie, Gordon and Vernon. There, that's 11 names.
Bang, beautiful cover drive for 4, no chasing that one Titeleash!
Brett Voss is at Old Hailebury, Nick Holland was at Old Carey last year, Julian Rowe is also at Carey, Rory Hilton/David Loats/Rayden Tallis at Old Camberwell... the list goes on...
