Remember we had an assistant a few years back by the name of Brendan McCartney, who's only credentials were being the coach of Ocean Grove. He's been at Geelong ever since he left us, and look at how shit they've been!
It is far more important to have someone who can actually think about the...
It was only a few years back that we were as bad a rabble as Melbourne... and the week before, Geelong had a shock loss to the 'Roos down at Kardinia Park.
The following week, it was a springboard game for them when they came up against the might of the Tigers! 160 points later...
I've...
Aaron Davey is listed at 177cm and 72kg's and is 25 years old - time enough to pack on some extra muscle. He is the prototype for the modern forward pocket and it seems Nahas has the goods to follow this lead.
Interesting both came to prominence as a small forward at Port Melbourne.
Didn't Hawthorn also have parts of the Mornington Peninsula? Leigh and Kelvin Matthews, Michael Moncrieff, Dermott Brereton and Chris Mew all came from around there.
I somehow managed to break the addiction a number of years back! I used to manage the balance between work (I was on a PC all day!) and reading/posting on BigFooty.
I then got heavily involved with a major issue at work (that was in the papers daily for a number of months) which became all...
Shannon Byrne, although a lot shorter than JON, nonetheless has the same ability to either make the wrong decision or mis-kick and cough the ball up. Still, he has a premiership medallion, so he doesn't cop it the same as JON.
Re: Is it just me or is everyone else loving watching Freo implode ?
Never mind the topic of this thread, I am just genuinely excited to finally see the work 'drivel' spelt and used correctly on this site!
Take that, Mark Robinson!
It was obvious watching him play in the opening round for Coburg that he had put on a significant amount of bulk. Previously, he had the build (and hair) of a Hobbitt and was too easily pushed around.
Now he has enough strength to stand in and break tackles and also break a line through great...
He is a lot stronger in the body this year. He was always quick, but lookked and was built like a hobbitt which didn't suit at AFL level. His extra strength enables him to now break tackles.
What are you basing this on? It is no surprise to anyone that you must get your act together off the field before success will flow on.
If you bother with even some cursory analysis of what we are doing off the field, you will see that this part of our club is doing very well. From a basket...
I saw Arcade Fire the week before last at the Forum. They are an amazing band live... 10 muso's on stage, playing probably 30 different instruments (not all at the same time!) and with the muso's changing around (ie., the drummer also plays guitar and keyboards!).
I saw AC/DC at the very...
I took my son, Ryan, down to a practice match at Kardinia Park about 6-7 years ago - this would have made him about 5 years old. It was a bizarre setup where the senior game was on before the reserves and we were standing in the players race watching the magoos go around. Scotty Turner came up...
What ever happened to that skinny little defender that they through to the wolves? Zac Dawson? Got torn a new one by Anfony Rocca and has barely registered anything since!
By and large, the trade period is for shifting either fringe or problem players around. (Judd is the obvious exception). You are not going to build a premiership team during this week.
All things considered, we did OK. Added some (sorely needed) skill without too great a cost.
There is one fundamental difference between McMahon and Fiora... When McMahon kicks it, it hits the designated target. Too many of Fiora's end up being up and under helicopter kicks.
McMahon is a Bulldogs best 22 regular in a side where there is a lot of competition for his position.
