    Waverly Park - What are peoples memories?

    My memory is of a footy trip from Sydney.We went to a game where Kelvin Moore was playing on Mark Jackson. Jacko was bowing down on his hands and knees in front of Moore in mock worship. Can't remember much about the game but haven't forgotten Jaco's antics.

    West- Unceremoniously Dumped?

    He was very unhappy.He said it was totally unexpected and he had to leave the meeting early. The thing that stood out in the interview for me was when he mentioned he had the opportunity to leave for Essendon and Collingwood at different times but he stayed even through the bad times.Although...

    Adam Goodes is able to run through the banner...

    We know how the final system works.We did win a gf in 2005.Remember. Then we got beaten by a team whose players have now been shown to have used illicit drugs during that year.:mad: But thanks for caring.No really.

    Brownlow - the votes that got away

    The thread is about the votes that got away.Not the undeserved votes.Read the op again. Secondly the incident with Selwood happened in the first quarter so being "flogged all day" had nothing to do with the bump. Thirdly his second half won the game for the Swans so he was hardly "flogged...

    Number 1 Draft Pick and Brownlow Medal??

    Ditto. Can't believe there is even a debate about it.

    Finals: Round 1 Sydney Swans vs North Melbourne ANZ Stadium!

    I think the conditions will advantage us.North have Hale,Thompson, and Edwards who rely on taking marks in the forward line as well as Petrie when he moves forward. It will suit our smaller defenders but the threat is Campbell and Thomas crumbing off the packs. However I think Thompson will be...

    Finals: Round 1 Sydney Swans vs North Melbourne ANZ Stadium!

    Strange question because of the havoc it will cause but is there a possibility the game will be called off? The surface at ANZ has a bad reputation and it will be diabolical tonight.Player welfare is a big topic these days and I wonder if the players association might object on behalf of the...

    Richmond may lose key sponsor - sign of things to come?

    Shows what a waste of money sponsorship is.If a sponsor is not making a profit out of sponsoring a team why do it? If a sponsor was making money out of the sponsorship then they would keep doing it.

    Blockbuster Fatigue - WTF is it?

    Blockbuster fatigue is when Malthouse has a nana nap during the game.

    If you got 8/8 this weekend.....

    Anyone who got more than 3 knows nothing about football.:D

    Ash Hansen

    His manager earned his percentage with that deal.Good luck to him. Is he Kennedy's back up or is there a position for both of them?

    Freo Vs Saints game thread

    A question about freo's gameplan?Is it to kick the ball short to the player under the most pressure?If it is they executed it perfectly.I was cheering for Freo or should I say swearing at them for most of the night. First real look at Warnock and I think he looks handy. Pav is an out and out...

    Good to see Saints flying the flag for Ball

    You like to see that but I was wondering why the free wasn't reversed as Warnock was attacked after St Kilda was given the free.Umpires used to love reversing frees for retaliation not long ago.

    Team Unchanged for Melbourne Clash

    I think Mc Veigh has taken his role as the right side wingman plus he gets forward more than Fosdike.I think Fossie is a depth player atm.

    Goodes - surely must go this time

    Still going.There is alot of hate for the great man from alot of not so great men. Hope that helps BIGBEZ.

    Nick Dal Santo To Be Dropped?

    Exactly.After this statement "To maintain the integrity of the selection system, we had to respond and treat everyone equally. Everyone was judged on (what they did at) the weekend." Dal Santo would not play this weekend if half the team were injured.

    Next TV deal - Problems on the horizon????

    I thought the current TV deal was Kerry Packer's gift to the AFL.He put in a huge bid much to the shock of many of his people and made 7 pay more than they expected. The new owners of 9 are less likely to go all out as they do not have the ego of Kerry. The AFL expects a bigger deal as there...

    Some money to be made on the punt this round.

    I liked the Bulldogs -17.5 @1.91 but now the line -25.5 so I missed the boat. Adelaide were a good bet at $3.60 but are getting a bit short playing away. The line looks the bet +11.5 @1.91

    Adelaide should be favourites.

    Could have got $3.40 if you shopped around. I can see Adelaide winning as Brown will be double teamed and there aren't that many scoring options without Brownshaw firing. I think Brisbane are a tad overrated.

    St Kilda $2.25 Freo $1.65

    Earlier in the week it was almost the opposite St Kilda $1.71 Freo $2.15 Freo at $1.65:eek: Is anyone game to back them at that price?

    Melbourne team vs Sydney

    He is our leading posession getter this year as he was last year.:confused: Jack is our no 1 tagger.

    Lock of the week

    Bulldogs -17.5 @1.91 over the Pies looks the standout for me. Bulldogs flying and the Pies aren't playing that well and have a few outs.

    Nick Dal Santo To Be Dropped?

    You are right about Dal Santo and Montagna.At one centre bounce they were both starting out of the defensive goal square.Last stop before reserves.Although I would drop Montagna before Dal Santo.

    The Reverse Coleman

    Good point.One off statistics never tell the story. Some teams play a loose man in defence or drop the ruckman back in the hole,while other teams are more attacking and make the backmen compete one out. Every single posession,contest and passage of play needs to be analysed to understand how...

    Holding the ball?

    I thought the rule is that if a tackled player has had prior opportunity and doesn't dispose of the ball correctly then it is holding the ball.A team mate taking the ball out of his hands is not correct disposal therefore should be pinged for holding the ball.

    Heath Shaw

    Tony Shaw's contribution to the debate.He must have read my post.:thumbsu::D "I don't know what he's trying to teach him (Heath) . . . we are still trying to win games so we can finish in the top four and play finals. "To try and teach him a lesson - as Mick said after the game - I think...

    Anyone have a list of players he represents so I can know which ones he is boosting or making excuses for when he commentates?
