When Adam Goodes started playing he was not booed like this. Has anyone found the witch that waved a magic wand and suddenly turned non racist supporters of many clubs into horrendous racists. Or does anyone know of anything that Adam Goodes may have done that would make fans boo at him. Why doesn'...

Yep not OOC until end of next year.

So given the absolutist are now at war here, it's either un-Australian if you boo, or un-Australian if you're not allowed to and don't.  In short, it's going really well. divide and conquer divide and conquer divide and conquer ad infinitum divide and conquer divide and conquer divide and conquer a...

FYI - Rhys Mathieson had another BOG against Eastern Ranges on the weekend.

I am a bit worried. If the Lions get a PP and the Swans and GWS use their academy picks it means we drop way down the order. Swans & GWS are only going for their academy kids if forced too which they have priority over, it is not going to effect our drafting. As to whether they get a PP let's s...

If Adam Goodes clocks one of our boys behind play, then by all means boo him as we would anyone else. However, in the absence of any on field treachery, not only should we refrain from booing Adam Goodes, we should give him an ovation, before the game starts of course. Actually, I agree with the fi...

Get the feeling they may take the opportunity to look at a couple different options.
Out
Roo, Lonie, Gilbert

In
Membrey, Saunders, Lee

Would love to see a Hickey for Longer switch but don't think it will happen.

However it started, for whatever reason, the booing has morphed into something which clearly has a racist element. The fact is if he wasn't Aboriginal he wouldn't be being booing to this degree - nothing that he's done warrants it. Furthermore he is a champion of our game and finishing this season. ...

NZ only care about 3 things: Rugby, Hobbits & ????? (fill in the blank)
Failed experiment IMO.

Matthews disputed what Mick Turner said comparing McCartin & Brown on endurance at the start of their careers but was very complimentary of McCartin in saying he has the right traits. Think Dermie, after highlighting Bruce to Watters, is drinking his own bathwater. Paddy was excellent on the wee...

I am stoked at how many wins we've got so far this year but when Rooey's our best for the day and we haven't won without him I think we are overrating where we are at in the rebuild. Take him out of the equation and we are going to struggle to win a game, our forward line is easily shut down. Hope ...

I was in a box today. There was a guy from Belgium who had been here since March but didn't have a team yet. I gave him one of my 20 scarves. He has a team now. He lives in Footscray and is disappointed that there is no local team for him to follow. But all of that wasn't an option so I voted for P...

Would we get more supporters going to games if we were based at the G rather than Eithad?
Ok, Eithad is probably more comfortable for families but outside that are there any other positives?
Can't help but wonder if a move to the G would work for us.

Definitely seemed like he took his first step onto the big stage today. Terrific in the conditions.
The kid can play.

we are starting from fresh..we need picks and need to make way for our new kids...Gilbo and some others will be gone next year...lets play all the kids in place of those who will be gone..for the rest of the season. Luckily the club wont do that. Gilbert wont be gone. he is very important to the cl...

Longer needs to lift he's getting smashed. Been smashed all year bar 2 or so games. The only real baffling aspect of Richos coaching is his constant Longer selection. Just don't get it. Unless it poised toward a trade. I'd be happy to get back what we paid for him. maybe he sees potential as I do. ...

There is no way Longer is better than Hickey on form.
Hickey would at least be giving Gawn something to think about with his forward presence.

I think we should be targeting new migrants. Our population is growing at a decent rate and migrants have no club ties when they come here. I often see them jump on high profile clubs like the pies and the hawks :( Not sure of the details but I have heard Collingwood provides new immigrants with 2 ...
