This also requires us to move the ball quickly to get those 1v1's and force a spread of the GWS defence. Our ball movement has often been far quicker in the Semi's in years past after a disastrous Qualifying Final performance and it's critical in isolating our talls when we're going this tall...
Dahlhaus hasn't had multiple goals in any match this season, and he's kicked just 1 goal in the last 6 games. If we're going to have a passenger (and I think Holmes was better than that in his last few matches, and also played better than Dahlhaus) I'd rather it be the young kid with potential...
It’s been proven time and time again now that our gameplan simply doesn’t stand up to swarming pressure, which is usually how finals are played and won.
Our finals record is a joke. I think the only time we’ve won week 1 other than 2011 was scraping past a Hawks team after the siren that wasn’t...
No, the dry season (April-October) isn't that humid. It's still going to be 30-32 degrees and sunny for any afternoon match though.
Footy in Darwin is played in the wet season because cricket (using the same ovals in the past) is obviously impossible to play in the wet season. It also means...
Even if you think that’s the case I’d rather you be saying that about a 20 year old rather than a 30 year old.
I feel for him, respect him for being open and upfront about what he’s been through, and I was happy for the club to take a punt on him - but like I said he’s so far from AFL standard...
This.
Short term pain for long term gain for Andrews. He gets to watch his fiercest factional opponent be purged, that opponents allies all be purged or at least sidelined, and suffer at worst no more fallout for it than for the Red Shirts saga which obviously had minimal impact 2 and a half...
Somyurek took branch stacking a whole different level, and had staff (both his own and other MP's) do it at taxpayer expense while also breaking ALP rules around payment of membership - all of which is beyond the usual and immoral but not illegal kinds of branch stacking that is often tolerated...
You're completely missing the point.
The MCG was built by the taxpayer and the MCC, Docklands was built by the taxpayer, and Kardinia Park was largely built by the taxpayer with approx $12m from the GFC. Every stadium in the league is at least mostly funded by taxpayers. IIRC we're the only...
Firstly if we want to go by your strictly literal terms then we don't have a home ground either. The Cats don't own Kardinia Park and never have.
Secondly you're arguing that a Hawthorn matches at the MCG and Launceston are all neutral? I hope they're splitting all of the attendance revenue...
:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
Which competition are you following?
Dingley is planned to be a training facility - you're comparing it to a ground which has held VFL/AFL matches consistently since WW2.
Meanwhile the Hawks play their home matches at the MCG and Launceston, which you can...
I don't really have an opinion on Nicks but this is a silly comment - Alistair Clarkson could be their coach and they'd still be well and truly on track for bottom 4. The Crows problems are going to take more than 17 matches for anyone to fix.
If the Crows board got rid of Nicks before the end...
It really wasn't there before that though - in 2007 we were one of the 2 Vic teams they picked to play in Tasmania, and in the years prior the attendances were hardly anything special.
I think 2008 was more about us being the obvious team to beat, and them being on track for top 4 and a...
I doubt the police would let him go without questioning if they suspected that at all.
And if it's a personal matter that Jack would rather not be in the media why would he be telling Vic Police anything after how they handled the Dean Laidley matter.
Once again?? That was the first time I responded to any points you made :drunk:
And you brought up crowd figures, but now think your own post was purely you saying "i'm all for you playing all your games down in Geelong" and nothing more? What point are you even trying to make??
Most of your...
Since when have the admins decided to allow trolls to become mods on here?
Are you going to contribute or just post Bay 13 style garbage as per the quoted post?
That doesn’t explain the mediocre crowds we’ve consistently had against you though, with with the exception of the last two matches (where you’ve been the home team) Richmond vs. Geelong matches in Melbourne have almost always drawn very mediocre crowds. Meanwhile our home matches against...
We should be playing 11 games in Geelong. I’m just saying that if we’re forced to play 2 home games in Melb per year then we should at least get to preference who they’re against out of the 11 home matches we have, and Richmond would be a very distant 4th preference even when they’re winning...
