Yeah, just run....and spend money on shorts, singlets, hydration belts, HRM's - before the physio bills for those buggered knees!!! Q: What do you call a runner with stuffed knees? A: A cyclist! (boom, tish) Disclaimer: This was written by a cyclist. The views expressed therein may be caused...

Who are, as yet, unproven at the highest level...being led by a coach who has never coached an AFL team to a flag. Bit soon for the Richmond supporters to start boasting and putting down other clubs, I'd say. Especially given the Tigers' history of tearing themselves apart.

Good point. Richmond are quite capable of tearing themselves apart. Don't need our help at all.

Can somebody please tell me what great achievements Terry Wallace has actually made as a coach? He might be a really great guy, brings on young players, helps little old ladies across the road, etc, etc...but I don't remember him actually winning any premierships.

Hope to see as many of you there as possible! Heading off for pre-match tonsil lubrication now.

Re: Re: Terry Daniher ??? After all that NTPM was the only one with the correct answer....although the other answers fill me with hope :) Breaks my heart to see TD in those colors.

You are right, the figures were good...but the theory on that was they would have been even better with less Friday night games...as (anecdotally) people had rung the club saying that it was hard to get away from work for Friday Night Footy and that they could not take the kids. Sorry if I...

We can all insult one another, but I think that the point made in jest is valid. My point -- however badly expressed -- is that the AFL should do more to help traditional Victorian clubs like the Roos and the Dogs -- whether it is the salary cap or whatever -- because I personally would...

Re: Re: Re: Re: Boycott round 11 Oh FHS, what a load of bollocks...the game's succeeded without the Sydney Swans for ages and would continue to succeed without the Sydney Swans. Sydney will never be an AFL town. The sooner some folks realise that (particularly those in the AFL...

Whats the point in being pro-active and innovative when you do hit the jackpot (Friday night footy) it gets given to the big 4. [/B] Interesting that Essendon approached the AFL asking for LESS Friday night games, because they have an ADVERSE effect on attendances and memberships (less...

Agree wholeheartedly. Perhaps it is time for a pay per view Club Channel. Then the Eddie McGuires of this world can rabbit on about their marvellous Poies -- and how they are being shafted by that nasty AFL -- all they want.....and none of the rest of us have to listen.

Re: Re: Sam Newman: Essendon undisciplined Yup...it's helped make Hawthorn the biggest pack of soft c.ocks in the AFL. Please - we do not want this kind of advice. Football is not meant to be a touchy-feely kind of pursuit. Ride boldly lads, and never fear the spills. Just...

Why? Because they exist.

Re: Re: Re: unfortunate? Agreed. But Caracella isn't a "reject" either. That was my point. Greedy, perhaps, but a good player. I'd rather have him in my team than playing for the Bris-scum :D

Heaven forbid, but I agree with Nick. I sure as hell would like Biglands running around in red and black!

Sorry Pies supporters, but I had money on the Crows to win. They rucked better, they cleared out of centre better -- like I thought they would -- and they were better prepared for the game. Of course, being fully prepared to play games in March, does not necessarily help you in...

Re: unfortunate? Have to correct you there. MOST of our rejects (as you put it) I reckon Ladhams played a top game tonight and I reckon Hardwick has played good games for Port Adelaide. BTW, I voted for a flag. It's the ultimate in payback.

The team that thumped Essendon in Canberra will not finish on the bottom, but it's so early to be making these kinds of calls. A bad run with injury (see St Kilda 2002), or a run of narrow losses (see the Swans' 2002) can really take the edge off a season and see players not reaching maximum...

Perhaps we could get some umpires who can bounce the ball... They used to be able to do it....

Yep, yep, yep. And Henneman too. Time for the Project to show some results.

The book sounds interesting. Agree that players are paid too much. Although, I have worked with former AFL footballers and for the risks they take and the big chunk of their lives that they dedicate to training, playing, etc I think that they should be well rewarded. Just not to the point...

That's as may be, but at least you did not have to go interstate to follow your team. Once upon a time, the biggest road trip was Geelong. Also, I do not remember too many players getting paid 400k. Now, it is not uncommon. No doubt a fair slice of that increased revenue finds its way into...

Totally sound reasoning. But, hey, when you've got Australia's biggest chip on your shoulder, why worry about reason? 'Oh the world is against us, you're all Victorian bastards ganging up on the Croweaters'...please get over it some time soon. Both Crows and Port supporters are getting...

The question is, when will Reg suss Des out and blow the whistle on him? Taverner cannot keep his role in the Sun Hill fire quiet forever. Oh, and I'd like to see Cass get her **** out too please...

How tragic... I could have got lost in them thar hills.....

Re: Re: sydney does the dirty again ... Mase, the Swans do the same thing with Ticketek to Essendon, Richmond and Footscray members living in Sydney. I know this for fact, having had personal experience and having spoken to Richmond and Footscray members at Drummoyne. They also cold...

Sorry Dan...not often I disagree with you. But leave the bloody point posts alone, please. The South Aussies will only want them all made out of Mt Gambier plantation pine, anyway ;) What is it with all this desire for changing the game everyone seems to have? And while we're at...

Mind how you go, or the aliens will get you :D

I like that one :D
