Yet we are told for five minutes what a fantastic football side north melbourne are...
You'd think they'd beaten us by 10 goals.

So despite the fact that your wife knows very little about the game (your words) she could tell that the umpires were cheating? Add to that Essendon received something like 2 or 3 free kicks in the second half that during the third quarter the umps were cheating?Originally posted by vhls2000
My wife is fairly new to Aussie Rules, being a Sydney girl, but while watching that third quarter she expressed the opinion that to her it appeared the umpires were cheating to make Essendon win.
Lloyd and/or Misiti would be in the top 5 on the ground IMO.Originally posted by Macpie
i honestly couldn't think of a bomber who you could say deserved votes could you?

The best free kick of the night was the one to Lloyd in the second quarter where he deliberately tripped over his own feet. Funny as
I'm hoping Lloyd will be made "tool of the week" on After The Game for that one.

How the hell does the umpire giving a free kick make Lloyd a tool? The umpire made the decision, not Lloyd.

he was a tool long before the ump did that. my fav bit in Fridays game was when after about his only touch in a hotly contested 4th quarter the pretty boy stood there in his usual disbelief after yet another mark/free/whatever was denied him? Meanwhile while he was occupied in his whining and rasing his hands to the ump the ball was being swept up the other end where the match would be decided. Great captain's effort?

Shouldn't votes be awarded for the whole game..not the last 10 minutes.
Perhaps Bolton's first 3 quarters at CHF would have been of some note as well..made King look ****weak

Bolton is symptomatic of what is wrong with the Bombers. The next generarion aren't near as good as the last

Oh thats right - greatest team ever 24-1. just a couple of years back wasn't it? that sounds like freefall!Originally posted by Dan26
And Collingwood next generation is miles better than their last, yet you are still only a 50-50 team like us. Goes to show the difference in success between the two clubs over the last 20 years.
Of course we're not as good as the last generation. You can't expect us to go 24-1 again. We'll come good again, though - we always do. It is our culture.

At least we won't have to wait 30 odd years for another flag and don't hang onto our premiership players until they're middle aged hacks...
Like Dan said, its our 'culture'. Win a flag (or two) every decade and re build.Originally posted by Macpie
a) How do you know?
Not yet... Some dead wood will most likely be chopped at the end of the year.b) I think that's exactly what you ARE doing

who do you call "dead wood". Please don't evade this!

Alessio for starters, most likely retirement. And throw in Misiti unless he removes a finger or two in the next few weeks.
That's my opinion anyway.

I reckon Barnard could almost be classified as dead wood now. Thirty years old, and doesn't do much.
He'll crash through a pack puffing his cheeks out, and we will all say. "Wow, he's so tough", but he's just about had it, I reckon. De-list Henneman too.

Doesn't look good for Barny. Especially with Winderlich comming through. This is his last season on the current contract, is it not?
Henneman, never been a fan, he's gone as well.
Originally posted by Dan26
Yep. No point doing a "McAlister" and holding onto Henneman year after year, delaying the inevitable. Just de-list him and get it over with.
Maybe we can convince West Coast that Barnard is a gun, and he can go home to Perth in exchange for Judd.
