There are no Vortex free threads.

I heard there has been a change to thr above rule. Any team can actually match the bid. Except St.Kilda. They will need to pay double

Billings will be begging to be traded if he gets dropped.

And Wilson is already better

HFs are by there very nature a bit inconsistent

Tonight we had some HFs that never got near it.

To suggest Billings has never played good AFL footy is ignorant

Who suggested that. He's a crab.

He said from.the very beginning he didn't want to play in Adelaide.
He said he wants to be a one club player.
If we make finals he will have two campaigns under his belt and will want a flag with us.
He wants to do what other players couldn't.
I'm confident he won't be going anywhere.

Besides being a nice kick, this kid can take a mark and has some wheels, not sure of his endurance but it doesn't matter. I think we are checking out who is hungry because they are all fairly talented. It also makes us attractive to young guys not getting a chance elsewhere. I hope it's not just a h...

This got complicated pretty quick. I didn't realise the fine was $20k still not sure but I doubt there is any other was to explain it other that is comes out of his net wages, after he pays tax. But clearly that was not the intended reason for the term. Lol. I'm still not sure what that reason was.

i didn't understand it the first time i read it
nor now

please explain

I think it means that it's a reduced fine.

Say I earn $10k, it's actually $7500 after tax.

Plugged was just making sure they didn't both get concussed with an accidental clash of heads. He was concerned about his own health and Caven's apparent lack of awareness, putting himself in a very dangerous position. I hope the lad is ok though.

As I’ve posted before, some of the negativity towards Billings on here verges on the pathological. How dare he not turn out to be as good as the Bont! F___ him! I hope he just keeps going better and better at Melbourne (except when they play us) and continues to get up your noses. I hope we here fr...

Good work.

200 is a serious achievement. Well done Seb. He has been a beacon in a disastrous era dominated by Richo and Trouts incompetence in there chosen roles. He has senn a number of coaches come and go and played some wonderful games and a variety of roles. Seriously good clubman and AFL star. I've been h...

If only… You don’t play the ‘if only’ game when you play footy You either do or don’t There would be countless times in games where players aren’t used, seen or the pass to them was a Clanger You don’t use that basis - if only - to review a performance Collards had 35-40 minutes to touch the footy ...

We foolishly penned an offer when Essendon made a play 3 years ago. Daddy's support at Essendon and his gutless manager set us up and Richo feel for it hook line and sinker. He isn't a fraud, he can play but half his contracted amount is about right. It is what it is. Clearly we are managing without...

If you think he will win tight matches for Melbourne you are delusional.
Stop comparing him to Phillipou too. His future is in the hot zones, Billings is a passenger.

Are you suggesting it’s good economic management to pay players to play elsewhere? We pay 250k out of our salary cap - to pay a player to get 24 touches and kick a goal - at another club?! That’s not embarrassing management?! I’d be ok if we got a reasonable draft pick for paying his wage ie/ bough...

Its Hammertime.

Oh and let's not forget the drop the knees and fly over free kick to Danglefield. Very lucky escape for the Pussies.

I think it made sense My position on the cats game has not changed Got it wrong Screwed over young Collard, pulled the wrong lever with the sub Your position was a loss before the team was picked wasn't it. We could have one it and didn't take out chances. Collard was in the clear twice and might h...

at least V gets a sniff of definitely + possibly

Melbourne Zoo was on the cards. We just weren't going out to the Pootown.

I am talking this season! Right here right now Billings is better than Phillipou, Wilson, Collard - and comfortably The fact that we are paying HALF his wage to play at a rival club which is better is embarrassing You are about the only one embarassed about it. The initial contract was embarrassing...

Definitely, possibly, maybe, not a chance.

Billings is averaging 20p and .7 goals. There's no doubt in my mind Darcy has him covered and will eventually be a level above. Billings is a mid/forward and only just both. He has top 10 endurance but not good enough for the wing and not strong enough for mid/clearance work. He is just a good outsi...

If they don't make finals, the Collingwood coach will probably be looking at the Brisbane job while he still has credibility.
He will make sure all the Collingwood boys know how much he loves them before he leaves.
