    Players you hated to see retire?

    The player I was the saddest to see retire was Gary senior, deserved to hold up the cup at least once. Ball won a premiership. But yeah, really sad to see Hayes retire without ultimate glory - as it will be when Riewoldt retires.

    Have you ever muted a quarter/half/match of footy on TV?

    I often sit in front of the telly with my headphones on listening to music instead of bothering with the commentary. I'd blare some speakers if I didn't live in a unit.

    Hawthorn v Sydney, Round 18 @ MCG

    Don't worry, Sydney got the moral victory.

    Hawthorn v Sydney, Round 18 @ MCG

    Cracking game. This match up would definitely feel perfect for the grand final - would produce a good game - as well as the recent history of these two clubs. May the best club win from hereon in. Roughead has finally stood up in a quarter, thank god for that.

    Hawthorn v Sydney, Round 18 @ MCG

    If Sydney were to win this game, then Hawthorn with be 1 Win 5 losses against the current top 6 sides on the ladder. The only win coming from the Hawks vs Freo game early in the season. Not good enough for a side hoping to go back to back. Really need to capitalise on the flow going in their...

    R17: Adelaide v Hawthorn @ Adelaide Oval

    Good result, thank god we didn't stuff that up. After all those misses, I was getting worried. Yeah, total dud, delist :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

    R17: Adelaide v Hawthorn @ Adelaide Oval

    Once again Roughead has gone icongnito for most of this half. If we are to win these close games he needs to start getting involved in the contests more, show a bit of leadership. Its as if he struggles mentally in this close contests.

    R17: Adelaide v Hawthorn @ Adelaide Oval

    We are a bit poor, seemingly a far cry from the Side that was going out there under Bolton (is it the game plan?) - why do we suddenly start to stink it up for extended stretches. Adelaide playing well, but I think they could be playing better themselves based on what I've seen the last while...

    St Kilda vs Collingwood 1993

    Needs its own section. Hot Topic: The Maul, Holding the Ball and the State of the Game.

    R17: Adelaide v Hawthorn @ Adelaide Oval

    Will be close and down to the wire. We will lack run, and our defence will struggle. Praying we don't **** this up or our top 4 chances look poor with Freo, Geelong and Sydney to come.

    Will Collingwood make the 8?

    I'm expecting that that will make the bottom part of the 8. I have Sydney, Freo, Hawks, Port, Geelong, I believe we will see North and Collingwood there. I'm more worried about Gold Coast battling for the position in the 8 mainly with Adelaide (who have gained some improvement in form recently).

    Are Geelong past it?

    You know what I mean. They are winning, but a lot of those wins are very close, and often against poorer teams. The percentage shows this. They just do not seem to be a highly dominant side like you expect of Grand finalists - coupled with losses against 3 of the top 4 and it doesn't look too...

    Are Geelong past it?

    Don't look all too strong in 90% of their wins - just getting it done. The way they are playing they seem like they won't very go far in September. Still some time to find the form they need though, but top 4 will be a strong challenge to achieve yet in H&A. Convincingly defeated by Freo, Sydney...

    Geelong v. Bulldogs @ Simonds Stadium

    Disgusting umpiring - has kept the dogs in it quite a bit. Time for the typical even up?

    A Decibel meter....???

    Some people will find the time to complain about anything it seems. Who cares if they have a decibel meter at all, its just to create some fun at the ground I'm sure, as the crowd will try and liven up their cheering if they see that they are being measured. Hardly a new concept.

    Round 16: North Melbourne vs Hawthorn - Etihad Stadium

    I'm one of the few who will agree that the swans were hit hard by injuries last year, you got hard done by at the very worst time, coming into the finals. You were never at full strength at all.

    Round 16: North Melbourne vs Hawthorn - Etihad Stadium

    Had a lot of passengers thats for sure. Really hurts us in the hunt for a home qualifying final, sadly one we couldn't afford to lose. Can't believe how much we lost our heads in the third. Lake deserves what he gets, disgusting what he did. Sounds like practically every teams supporter base...

    Is Buddy Franklin the second best player in the AFL?

    Amazing when you think that Buddy having a poorer year by his standards still puts him in contention with the best forwards the league over like 2013. During his better years he is ahead of the pack and has been the best forward since 07. Should produce a number of good years by league standards...

    Can Gold Coast go all the way this year?

    Is it time to put a line through the Suns?

    A solution to the rolling maul or not?

    Yes that is correct. It should be a ball up and ideally not too long after the tackle. I was replying the the guy who suggested pinging (for HTB) the guy who is holding it the the chest of the other player - which would be very hard to police.

    Do Sydney Swans Throw

    Every team throws the ball - not only Sydney, most top sides have it down to an art form. Its something that needs to be stamped out for every club. He averaged 3+ goals a final while being at the Hawks - pretty good I'd say. You can excuse the occasional bad game here and there, especially as...

    Buddy getting an unfair go by the umpires

    Always has and always will be hard done by when being scragged and held. It is almost as if the umpires have a preconceived bias against him. I'm trying to remember back if he used to get the same in 2007 or not. However many many forwards get a similar treatment from the umps. The above poster...

    Round 14: Hawthorn vs Collingwood - MCG

    Should be fairly close, but confident of a Hawthorn win by 2-3 goals. However we have been in shaky form at current.

    A solution to the rolling maul or not?

    Assuming the umpire is capable of seeing that the player is holding it to their body. Sometimes from their position they will struggle to see that.

    FTA-TV GAME OF THRONES season 4 ( NO book spoilers )

    Thats the shows fault, not necessarily the plot lines of the last seasons themselves. Read the books if you want that kind of depth. This season just ended Storm of Swords, in case you want to read up to the current seasons end. It seems to much to ask for the show to get all the detail and...

    FTA-TV GAME OF THRONES season 4 (MANY book spoilers) *you have been warned*

    The show was pretty ok, if you treat it as a different story to the original canon material. I can enjoy it as a different version of the plot - it was never going to be totally true to the book, especially as a TV show it can never have the same detail and depth of the Book. However the...

    FTA-TV GAME OF THRONES season 4 ( NO book spoilers )

    It was a good episode, didn't go exactly as I expected, but very well done. The Hound Brieanne fight was fantastic and possibly my favourite in the show. Going to be hard to wait so long for next season. Will be keenly watching any new casting over the next year. Earlier in the season...

    Certified Legendary Thread Race for the flag, in squiggly lines

    Fremantle are doing circles in the one area like the Hawks were last year. Very consistent in that regard. Expect to see them moving to a better position possibly like we did come finals.
