Anyone notice some discrepencies from this article - 3 year old photo with Shannon Grant and kangaroo teammates? This would make Ben no older than 15...

I don't understand your logic on this, consider the following table of the number of professional football teams in each state, including those very close to being granted licenses:
State Pop (1000s) AFL NRL S14 HAL Total Pop(1000s)/Teams
NSW 6,889 2...
Daph - I didn't hear the report, but if what you heard is correct, you should tip-off Media-watch on the ABC, commentry like this should be publicly shamed.
Goldstein listed as an emergency? Do you think he would be happy being listed here for the next 2-3 years, and knock back any approaches from other clubs???
Also, who do you think the GC17 will take from NMFC as an unlisted player? I'd say it would either be Urquhart or Hale - I'm taking...
Unlike most other posters, I have only a few problems of this article. I thought it was a badly chosen first sentence given our current state.
To think that had the merger between Fitzroy/North occured, North would've avoided relocation talks, continued to be a 11 Melbourne home game club...
I have Geelong, Swans, Saints and Collingwood finishing strongly, the Pies have a dream run home. West Coast squeezing in on % after falling out of the 8 momentarily. Kangas with 5-2 for remainder with losses to Cats and Hawks.

Tassie's lineup includes Moran at CHF, but no McMahon - do we expect a last minute change???
Even the Hobart Muckery reports Hale and Moran as being starters:

Maybe not, but those observant to notice Hale's name not listed for Tassie will also notice Brown's name listed, despite being named in the Roos starting 18.
The AFL has been eagerly promoting the Gold Coast games this year, including putting information on their main page of afl.com.au. However they seem to have fallen down at the last hurdle with the TV rights. If the AFL was serious in developing a supporter base for our club in QLD, they would...
Threads like this one annoy me. I'm sick of supporters thinking because a tactic worked 30 years ago, then we should be playing it today. All teams are playing this tactic, and we should not be sucked in to blaming this for our poor performances. Why should we support such a view initiated by...
Will be making our first interstate trip for the year in 2 weeks time, with possible trips to Manuka and York Park later in the year. Can someone please give some advice for booking tickets to the game at Subiaco against Fremantle Round 8? Preference is somewhere on the wing, access to...
That name brought back memories of watching him play with the Clarence Roos at Bellerive Oval many years back, before his VFL days. From that particular game (also his last in Tas), he received a 6 week suspension for throwing his mouthguard at the ump.
A while back, I recall that Aylett was talking up the Kangas to be Grand Finalists in 2007. I think in order to achieve this we will need to start blooding some of our talented young players this year.
Currently our first 22 looks something like this:
B: Makepeace (1b), Hay (1a), Archer...
I think we are being ripped off by both Port (pick 14 for Motlop) and Hawks (2 first rounders and 2nd round for Hay). Forget about Hay, and send Motlop to the PSD as follows:
Roos trade pick 13 + pick 29 with Eagles for McConnell + pick 18
Roos trade xxx (Makepeace, Shore, any number of...
I think this would be very unlikely, since the Canberra AFL seems to be moderately successful in its own right, even to the point the Swans reserves play in this competition.
Which brings me to the next point, there should be no reason why we couldn't enter this league and at the same time...
I thought the deal was (published in Roo news):
Home games
9 games in traditional vertical stripes
2 games in heritage jumper (vs Hawks 30 year GF anniv and heritage round)
Away games
8 games blue
3 games white (clash)
Also the club sponsor on the jumper differs: Mazda for homes...
Was at the game today, pretty disappointed that an almost full strength Kangaroos went down to a 2nd rate Saints. Just my notes on their performance.
Our defenders played a pretty good game keeping it tight and limiting the number of opportunities for St Kilda forwards, good games from...
