    Tim Clarke - your memories

    Played his best games at CHF. If I had his work ethic, I'd be playing AFL. Was a terrific leader within the group and raised the bar for those thinking they were working hard enough on the track. Good bloke, loved the club, pity he didn't have more tools in his kit bag.

    Re: Mark Williams: A Bomber? Currently playing 93% of the cap with front loaded contracts in place. The downside is that there's some massive talent being underpaid that'll require adequate compensation at some point. On the latter point, 'adequate compensation' can take a few different...

    Merged Delistings/Trade thread

    Re: Mark Williams: A Bomber? He didn't look like the forgotten man in the Grand Final. Actually, you can add the other September games to that fact as well. He had an awesome September, took home a flag for his trouble, and won it with a some very tight-knit brothers by his side. I'd be...

    Is Brad Sewell now Hawthorn's best player?

    He's one of Hawthorn's most effective, certainly. Up there with Franklin, Hodge, Bateman IMO ... and they each bring certain strengths to the group. You're absolutely kidding yourself if you think one of Sewell's strength is his disposal though. Good hands in close, OK short kicking when...

    Mick Malthouse:Will anyone pick him up?

    Mick Malthouse:Will anyone pick him up?

    A more pertinent question is whether there are any Collingwood supporters left that think Mick should be re-appointed. There's been plenty of Pies fans here that have waded into arguments with ardent support for Mighty Mick ... and pretty recently too. Why only last year one flipper-head here...

    Leigh Brown has been fantastic for us this year

    As per usual MM is a step ahead of the Pies faithful. Instead of waiting until the angry mob wants answers why MM recruited this spud instead of spending the opportunity on youth, Mick has headed it off at the pass.

    Mooney ... how many ?

    Why take my word for it catsh1t: http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/sport/afl/story/0,26576,25064784-19742,00.html Perhaps we could ask the great man himself what happened: http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/sport/afl/story/0,26576,25222059-19742,00.html Hope that helps. Max Rooke Board.

    Mooney ... how many ?

    Sorry to offend your sensibilities Riddler. Perhaps there is no "Geelong discount", let's wait and see. There should be three incidents involving Mooney that the MRP looks closely at. All three mirror actions where other players have been suspended. For mine, the punch in the head is...

    Mooney ... how many ?

    How did you see it Riddler ? Case to answer ?

    Mooney ... how many ?

    Cynical punch to the head whilst "attempting to spoil" but missing the ball by a couple of feet. How many is that worth for a bloke with form ? Reckless ? Intentional ? Head high. Medium impact ? High impact ? If C Brown, Solomon, J Lewis, S Baker, did that it'd be three weeks I...

    Collingwood to get yet another Blockbuster match?

    I can hear it already ... MM: "We let down all the Christians today".

    Congratulations.

    Congrats Bombers. Lots to look forward to for your side. Hope some of you took the $6.

    The M10 Boys.

    I've heard that half of them are gay and that the other half are prominant members of the Young Liberals. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

    Scott Lucas dropped

    Mystery Girl ?

    Scott Lucas dropped

    Quoted for insight. Knights said that he won't be in the 22. Didn't say anything about not naming him as an emergency before an inevitable late change. I'd imagine Clarkson is preparing for Lucas to play.

    Fletcher out for 4-8 weeks

    A young hooker would be wasted on Williams, better off on Franklin I'd reckon.

    North vs Collingwood - Season defining match?

    Firstly, don't get too carried away about your last game. You played a side that made Richmond look like contenders, so go easy on expectations. Secondly, you have a few likely types who are kids and need gametime and development. My critisism of your current 22's lack of polish is...

    North vs Collingwood - Season defining match?

    Your 'run and carry from defence' types have poor disposal. Corridore turn-overs are brutal anyway, but for a side with below average distributors it's curtains. Your midfield lacks depth and your outside mids lack polish. You key position forward targets are not effective avenues to goal...

    North vs Collingwood - Season defining match?

    I agree with you. I think Malthouse has let the club and the player group down in a number of ways. I'm on record with these here and other places so I won't bore you with what I believe his failings are. What I will do is repeat the point I'm making ... Malthouse directs a gameplan based...

    North vs Collingwood - Season defining match?

    So Mick's so powerful they need to play a game of chess to manouver him out of the club ? If the president thinks the coach is not up to it, it's his duty to sack him and appoint someone who is.

    North vs Collingwood - Season defining match?

    Well, let's see: Mick's the coach and he devises the game plan. When asked about the game plan, he basically says it's because the list is not up to playing a more attacking and contested brand of football. I've been saying pretty much the same thing, so I've noted that Mick agrees with...

    North vs Collingwood - Season defining match?

    Mick agrees with me ... that your much maligned game plan is directly related to the state of your list. You don't agree. That's fine.

    North vs Collingwood - Season defining match?

    Sorry Galactico, Sooky Malthouse agrees with me. http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/sport/afl/story/0,26576,25409176-19742,00.html
