I played schoolboy union in South Africa. That was bad enough! Until I got knocked to "Kingdom Come" in a game once ... Had a whopping concussion from that, struggled to remember my own name the rest of the day.
I also played as a goalkeeper for the local soccer club under-16s ... Needless to...
Scroll back mate ... You will find much of it has been posted already.
Careful though! You will find that some of it has a bit of NSFW content. Like some serious "Daddy pr0n" if you are a Ken Hinkley fan!
Good on him. Dont know why people are bagging him for it. The call of "Get it to Houston" and "Kick it to Dixon" are thankfully gone.
Glad we can finally bin that Hinkley game-plan and now play as a team again with everyone playing a role, not reliant on two individuals.
Now just need to...
The comments about Moraes were very interesting ...
Christian Moraes
The draftee impressed last week and continued to do so on Friday. Clubs do like to ease draftees into it but in potentially a sign of how much the Power already likes him Moraes was involved in one of the half-field drills on...
Yep. Agree.
Everyone has an opinion. Fair enough, but in the end it is just our view of things from our standpoint.
At some point we have to move on! The deal is done. Houston has buggered off, and now loves the Colliwobbles! Let's waste our time and energies seeing what our new lads, who are...
I have mentioned this b4, that we had earmarked Berry & Whitlow, and would have probably taken with with the picks we got from Melbourne if that deal had of gone thru ... ended up with the same players, plus the extra nonsense.
Very superficial analysis though. The guy played zero footy in 2023, then one reserves & then into the seniors in 2024, eventually starring in the GF and awarded BOG.
Invited by Richmond recruiters to do the preseason there along with his brother ... So others have actually noticed him.
I think you go on to answer your own question.
Why force him to stay & keep him? I mean, we have a consensus here that we aint winning anything under Hinkley! Half the posters here have either walked away from the club, or havent renewed membership.
Letting him go, and bringing in a bunch of...
You are being a bit anal over this IMO. Of course they would say "We are interested in using the number again ... Thinking of giving it to a mature-age ex-Magpie player, but want to get the family's views and approval first."
And yes, 12 years on, the family no doubt agreed to it. Coerced...
Remember too, that Houston could only choose a club that came to him with an offer! Melbourne did, then that imploded. A few made enquiries, but how many tabled a deal? ... In the end just ONE! Of course he was going to nominate them! However if there were three clubs chasing him, that creates...
I am in Thailand atm, and having no problems watching them using NORD. I had CyberGhost before, but they were useless. NORD costs a bit more but works brilliantly
You're just digging a deeper hole for yourself. Your point is 100% true, but, is diametrically apposed to your argument. Because Houston had a big say in the final decision, the options became even fewer. Get North out of your brain, Houston was never choosing them! However if others had of...
In what hemisphere was Houston worth a #1 pick?
This is the thing I am pissed off about .. I know yours is just an example - albeit a poor one, but Houston was ONLY worth what someone was willing to pay for him! That is the basics of any economy, even footy-player trading!
Hell man! Why the...
That is a total misquote ... The 36% was not "accuracy", it is a different stat. I cant find it, but I remember seeing on the chart, thinking at the time that the poster had wrongly quoted it.
I think it might be "conversion rate" or some such ... def NOT accuracy
