I was watching the game from Dili, East Timor and embarrassed my wife no end when I jumped on the table of the bar we were in to rejoice in the greatest goal i've ever seen. The Timorese may now be converts to the greatest game of all.
Great thread. I'll be watching this forever.
When Port hit the front and things were getting tense, I kept waiting for Campbell to scythe in to the bottom of the pack and wrap up the ball/player. The boys did well in the final 5 mins to come back from the Port assault, but I felt that we missed Campbell at these stages. His importance was...

pfft...this is still going?

An opposing supporter with a sense of the greater good for this great game, rather than blindly calling for suspensions. Bravo BB - you're the first to speak sense on this thread. All others who are calling for suspensions, grab a bib and join the netball team - it'll be a better fit.
If all you jokers on here declaring Buddy a sniper can tell me there is parity between Wellingham's No Case to Answer' hit on Hodge in Round 4 and Buddy's, you're all as delusional as you sound.

Backlines have long given up going to Mooney and Hawkins, they're just going to shank it anyway. Turns out your dire need for a go-to-forward turned up the find of the season in a mature age rookie. I wouldn't go bandying about genius coaching or 'planning' however. Let's look at this for what...
Say what?! The bloke is a 4th string kick for the Storm at best, and I can think of at least 3 players since reading this drivel that are bigger kicks than Inglis. Campese kicks drop outs 65 on the fly with regularity.
All said though, Inglis has to be the most likely to leave the Storm...
Yawn....when are you Geegoons going to realise, form = premierships. We lost early in the year to the Doggies and spanked them by 50 in the qualifying. We also lost to the Saints in the regular season, and spanked them by 60 in the prelim. In fact, apart from a bizarre dropped game against...
Loving Peterson at full forward. Was the right move to put him there for mine. I expect to see Peterson in the mids, Shoey up front, and Hodge down back at some stage.
I wouldn't worry about the talls Pies fans. We've gone shorter if anything. Whitecross, Young and Osborne in. You've still got one more ruckman than us.
Ain't that the truth - and I reckon all you Pie fans are in for the time of you life this weekend. Jolly tore us a new one last year effectively killing our midfield off. This is strange game with two touted finalist teams - at least in the media, but with a hell of a lot to do to prove it. I...
Can someone fill me in on JKT? What are his strengths? Positions of choice? I see him pop up a lot in people's 22 or emergencies but not sure where or how he plays. Not from Melbourne so haven't had a chance to see him run around Box Hill.
Freo's uprising as the comps bogey team - manifesting itself in a great win over the Cats this round - has left me grabbing for the fixture calendar to see when we face them, and if it's before we can get something representing a full 22 on the pitch. Round 21 is the surprising answer. Which...
A lot of comments shooting around here from Melbournian's, which is fair enough. But for fans like myself that do not and have not ever lived in Melbourne, I take every chance I can get to get to a game. If the Hawkers aren't in town a weekend i'll be visiting Melbourne, I'll be getting to any...
It seems like Mooney is the only player who ever trots these comments out. It also seems that he and probably Ottens are the two most likely to be put out to pasture first. Ironic that the bloke who single handedly kicked them out of a Grannie and has been less than the backbone of their assault...
You don't think he has the opportunity to do something special and be part of the conception of a new club? 2 Premierships, 2 B&F's, and a Brownlow are a shite load more than other players achieve in their careers, let alone at 25. He can go on now with no bad blood and be the marquee player and...
Dead right loki. With 4 football codes running about, and two of them traditional stalwarts of NSW and QLD, #2 for AFL is the aim. I'm more interested in the success of GC in the comp. QLD fans have shown through the years their support for footy teams and I reckon they'll be up and running with...
Re: Bucky and Injured Hawks in Katherine, NT
Great write up RPNT. Hopefully Katherine can get a team up and going in the NTFL and give the kids a chance to excel in the great game.
Thought I'd add a bit to your report on Bucky's comments on some of what Shaun said.
He sounded genuinely...
