2nd ruck is doing my head in! Sandi + J. Irons or Leuey + D. Swalow My 1st ruck is Cox

Question for you guys about Mumford. A day out he features in less than 5% of teams. Why the lack of love? Has he got an injury or something that I totally missed???

Was thinking of Boyd so had a look at his numbers against last four opponents of this season. Following is his record starting 2008, surprisingly his numbers are not that great: Adelaide 94,73,52 Geelong 81,120,96,46 Sydney 100,75,131,76,73 Essendon 75,112,88,113 It's true...

In addition to current DP functionality I would like to have the ability to use the DP feature half way through a trade. Example of how this would work: 1. Trade FWD cash cow out - leaves an FWD empty position 2. Switch a DP player (eg. Chappy) from MID to FWD - leaves an empty MID position...

So what happened to the other 3000 "seated" members? Decided not to turn up because of a gut feeling of impending doom? :)

No argument from me Fu, but I think you can see how ridiculous it would look if the AFL sanctioned a player who has not returned a positive test ever, while at the same time taking essentially no action against 28 who have. I think you'll find the clubs do want to do their own testing, it's...

I have no problem at all with Cousins being sanctioned in some way or another, but if he is so should the other 28 that actually returned a positive drug test. Why should they get away without punishment. It therefore follows that those 28 should immediately be named.

Look, under the current arrangements they can't do anything, otherwise they'll be in breach off the agreement with the AFLPA. The question now is should this arrangement be tightened, as some are advocating, in much the same way the NRL has done - one strike and you're out? On the one hand that...

Given that I don't live on BF that is more than likely true. Apologies. You are one in a million Bushie, or one in 33,200 to be precise ;) Neither can you speak for very other Tom D1ick and Harry registered on these forums. Anyhow. Perhaps what will come out of all of this is a...

To be honest no, too many pages to wade through I'm afraid, but as fars as I can tell there is a recurring theme from one page to the next. However, let's say that the hypothetical conversation were to take place and the hypothetical media release did come out, would you limply roll over...

You're listening bushie but you're not hearing me. If he did use then he should have a strike against him just like the other 24. No more, no less, I think we agree on that. Is he dishonest in this incident? Probably, which gives him something in common with the rest of the registered players...

What's the big hang up with dishonesty bushie? Are you telling us there is no Fremantle player or official that has ever told a lie? It seems the head in the sand syndrome is not confined to WC fans. If he did use then that should be strike one against him in the AFL, just like the other 24...

At this stage would definitely trade Lynch for Pavlich. However, I think Lynch has a lot of improvement left in him. It's intersting to note that before being drafted Lynch and Kerr played together at Aquinas College. Kerr was the runner-up F&B to, wait for it....Lynch! Being a little bloke Kerr...

Was unlucky enough to watch Hawthorn vs St Kilda at TD this year. I'm sure Saints supporters loved it coz they walked away with a big win, but, to see Hawthorn players get the ball half way between FB and HB and instinctively go backwards was just mind numbing stuff. I never regret watching a...

Well, that's one way you can spin it. Another way you can spin it is that this is not dissimilar to insider trading. Highly illegal outside the AFL, and would be detrimental to teh AFL.

The AFL can act if they choose to do so for the good of the game. All you need to do is look at the final outcome of the Fremantle St Kilda game at Launceston this year to see that. They could have blocked this if they wanted to but chose not to.

Not entirely. If the player is at the end of his contract and performs this manouvre his original club is left with nothing when they would have rightly expected something via a trade.

To be honest I can't belive AFL have allowed this. On the one hand nominating a price and a club is deemed prejudicial to the draft, yet on the other hand they allow this. I don't think Essendon have any case to answer, but Mal Michael has come out as one slimy and dishonest SOB. And while there...

A bit late on the scene I know, but better late than never. Roundhouse, your reasons why WCE and their supporters are dislikled are probably valid. I have no problems with that, but please tell us what is the reason to brand us all bandwaggoners? As already stated what p!sses people off the most...

Really? Do you have any idea about your own argument then? On the one hand you are saying that Barry did the job on Lynch in the second half, yet you don't dispute that Lynch played large chunks of the second half up the ground due in no small part to lack of supply. Doesn't matter how good a FF...

How??? I assume then your argument is that Lynch had to move up the ground because Barry denied him the ball. Delusional point of view to say the least. Go on, watch the game again, it won't be that painfull, and then you'll be able to make informed posts on this forum.

Given the input of the other forwards on the ground, and the final margin, Lynch's three goals were worth their weight in gold. Since you were at the game you would have noted that the supply dried up after half time and this only flatters Barry's performance as Lynch moved up the ground to get...

Agreed. But it's interesting how the WCE were able to consistently dismantle the Lions at the Gabba and at Subi during that period of sustained briliance.

Well then Roos better dump him. In your words he's too small and too old to restrict a dud like Lynch. I would much prefer to see LRT at full back against us anyway ;) .

Mate, c'mon, no one is whinging about it. Everyone is using this incident as an example to point out the lopsided nature of your argument. Look at incidents like that one and accept that the Irish were no saints and we can move on. Your current stance, which for all intensive purposes seems to...

Re: Proffessional AFL players were outrun by brick layers, school teachers, factory w If that's the case then the bike seat permanently wedged up your ass will require surgical removal.

:rolleyes: You should have returned Ed's brain AFTER reading the middle paragraph of my post.

And you figured this out all by yourself mwalker, did you? Looks like Eddie is now loaning his brain out to his brain dead supporters! On ya Ed! Nothing to do with Selwood you mutant, I haven't even watched the game, wasn't even sure whether it was Troy or Adam that fluffed it but it's...

Yes we had a seven day break before the second Derby, but you guys had eight. And we played our game in 28 degree heat in Brisbane while you played yours on a cool Saturday night. All in all a more than fair comparison I think. Also we are comparing your shocking loss against Geelong here vs our...

Re: Proffessional AFL players were outrun by brick layers, school teachers, factory w With extensive training, such as a whole preseason say? YES. With limited preparation that the Aussies had? NO.
