I'm not sure that LB would have to sit out of football entirely if he ended up at the GC next season. They will be fielding a VFL team in 2010 and perhaps Luke could lead that group. With the talent they have aready assembled at GC, he might be playing in a more successful team than Melbourne or Ri...

He wouldn't.

By the start of 2010, most people would have forgotten who Ball is, let alone if he's any good.

As a 25 year old, who's just had a pretty poor season. Also had 2 clubs not even think about offering more then a 2nd round draft pick, in a year where the draft is weak....

Doubt he'd really want to move to a team where he won't play at all next year...

Feel proud. Can't faul any of the players, not one of them. Every single person died for St Kilda, everybody was sensational.'

Sadly, it doesn't help the heart break.

Win tomorrow a must. I know Essendon were more like Bendigo but Adel are the form team at the moment.

I think he should get off! Different to Zac, he took a player out who wasnt looking who didnt even nearly have the ball. They are all different cases. Symes played out the game. He then played the week after, and he's still playing. Cousins is in doubt for this week? As well as not playing out the ...

I hate to be the pessimist here, but Lyon said it was corky. From what Roo was clutching at, and from how he appeared to be impaired, I'm not sure how it could have been a cork. I mean what's to cork in your knee? Just hope it ain't a posterior, even mild... They said a corky just above the knee......

So far, in 2009, 160 games have been playing.

Only 16 times this year, has a team scored 100 points or more, and lost...

2 of those games were decided after the siren...

Scoring 100 points against anyone will get you close to a win 95% of the time.

I think the priority picks may have been a lottery between teems eligible back then,

In 1995...
Fremantle and West Coast each received one for being new teams...Fitzroy for being crap.

Pick 1 - Fremantle,

Pick 2 - Fitzroy,

Pick 3 - West Coast,

End of priority round.

Pick 4 - Fitzroy
