What i found most weird was early on, after a poor kick from a sub-standard midfield Fev was out of screen and i found myself expecting and cheering for an expected Fev tackle. Without the likes of Judd, Murphy, Gibbs and Stevens kicking it down his throat I don't think he can play up to his...

For those who don't know, take a seat and calm down. Talia supports Carlton too :)

Actually the award was meant for Hamish Moore but was somehow mistaken by the EDFL. Been told by 2 of the umpires that Hamish Moore was their decision and that is what was given to the EDFL... no idea how that mistake was made. Congratulations to Douttas, both under 18 competitions proving 3rd...

Stupid comment there. Teams like Carlton in particular are in no real need of a gun midfielder and would be much better off with a KPP or the like. So while he'll be in most top twos, a KPP could be in more demand.

See this as a nothing move by the AFL, will be very rare to see a club willing to trade for a rookie not already given a spot on that clubs senior list. Nothing to lose though I guess and could provide an unlucky rookie a chance at AFL level.

Not suprisingly each position on the ground seems to have the one or two preferred gun players in Rich, Rioli and Kennedy. Kennedy is suprising as I would prefer Tippet but just an observation.

Quite simple really, keeping team balance in mind for your team pick any two young players in the competition you would most like to add to your side. Now to qualify as being young the player must have been under 22 at the time this season commenced. Or a date of birth after, March 26 1987...

Not that your 'debate' with 'Mo isn't cute or interesting and by no means am I taking his side but surely your not telling me that your arguments are not based on stats. Looks like it from my screen. After watching the game, while not intently as I would a Carlton match Morton was hardly...

No doubt Morton is a promising player but surely even with your Melbourne goggles on you can see that the likes of Selwood, Gibbs, Rioli, Cotchin and Kreuzer are destined to be of better class Not one to harp on about stats but on this alone defines his hurt factor. In arguably his best game to...

Next sane catch-up time? I mean surely 'one' can fit it in some time in between bull-bucking and synchronized swimming.

While he does prove to be very valuable in the centre bounces around the ground he is very lazy and not quite up to AFL standards. Shows no desperation and while he was playing on an elite AFL ruckman in Hille, Jacobs simply refused to spoil or pressure his man.

A bit of desperation, especially in that last quarter when Essendon simply wanted it more. Hille dominated around the ground and at times Jacobs was well within spoiling distance but simply was far too lazy to spoil which became really frustrating. Yarran is perhaps the better option while...

Hindsight is a wonderful thing as the expression goes. And while we don't come out and slam our match committee prior to the game most football brains had a feeling dropping Scotland would have an adverse affect on the team. The continued selection of rookies Jacobs and Garlett also seem to be...

Backing down. My original post just stated Buddy had tipped us to make the 8 and that we will eventually beat the Dawks. After some illiterate Dawk's fans misread and assumed I thought we would beat the Hawks and win the flag I simply reminded the Dawks that the word eventually could be this...

Maybe not this year, but eventually. 2010, 2011? Not to say we can't beat them this year but Hawthorn are still the #1 side in the competition and not only will we have to meet Buddy's expectation of the top 8 but we will also have to start beating the top 4 sides in the competition.

With the Hawthorn's obsession towards its successor(Carlton) the Hawk's centurion has backed Carlton to be the big improver of 2009 and make the 8 in March's edition of the Foxtel guide. Surely with their own Buddy now backing the Blues, Hawks supporters can finally bring a halt to the senseless...

Carlton obsessed? Not to draw too much attention from this riveting thread but isn't what your spouting off just worn out, unoriginal and idiotic dribble? Ironic, aye. The only original idea I've seen in this thread is the O'Reilly trade debacle yet you made this point void by claiming our...

Reading not a strong suit? I said he displays more leadership qualities than whoman. Yet W.Smithers searched the web for a suitable video to show off this great new captain choice yet all he could find was Whoman squibbing a free kick and assing a goal? Now the club is in a bit of a leadership...

So it is these lies that help you to sleep at night? Newsflash, Richmond aren't in the box seat.

Would I have been better off asking which of these posters Grandparents voted yes?

You misunderstand it can be either. 16 Premierships (is) not enough. 16 Premierships (is) not enough? This is also evident in your post. It's a rhetorical question, not a statement. It's a rhetorical question, not a statement? If we are past trying to get a grasp on the English language...

Rattling off names doesn't make it true. In all honesty a leadership group of Waite/Murphy/Simpson/Gibbs/Fevola/Stevens would have been suffice. Any of those would've been a much better captain than Whoman. I mean even our off-field trouble maker Fevola displays more leadership potential than...

It sure does, a supporter who has the balls to admit that he didn't have the faith in his club to survive so voted to merge. Why, did 1 in 3 Carlton supporters vote to merge our club?

My criteria for 'best player' takes into account past and present form as well as potential. Which is why I rate Franklin so highly and Ablett a close third. While it may not be your opinion it is an opinion and neither is 'right' in the true sense of the word. I reconise Ablett's form and at...

Sound familiar? Well sorry Juddy88 being listed as a west coast supporter I didn't think you would've been in a position to vote in the Hawthorn merger. I apologise for my neglect, a word that reminds you of your childhood?

Thank god, who knew the 'good word' would be so hard to spread.

Who are you? I'm not familiar with the work of wearehatedgain and blue gunslinger but have read and despised the work of Big Red. On topic, who do you think voted yes?

Re: Tigers top job a joke I agree that the use of Juddism is present in this thread. Isn't that just persuasive language? I mean when you have a point to make you get a bunch of statistics, analogies and various other techniques to position the reader to agree with your point of view...

Scraping the bottom of the barrel when you start pointing out spelling mistakes. It's just not easy to pick up everything at 1:00 in the morning.
