Re: Uneven playing field

I've said for years the AFL is the most blatantly corrupt organisation in Australia that I know of. If it wants a result, it gets one. Brisbane won three in a row. Sydney is always thereabouts. Now it's GWS. It tried to engineer the Essendon debacle to cover it up or at least hose it down. It fined ...

On this day, 31 August, 1997.

We finished minor premiers after beating Port Adelaide over there in a game which saw Lazar Vidovic do his knee. I must say though I was still gobsmacked at the news from Paris a few hours before about the death of Princess Diana.

We could stop the drug cheats getting first pick.

Apologies if this has been posted elsewhere, but the Lions are only half a per cent ahead of the drug cheats - 61.5 to 61.0 - so if we belt them tomorrow, the dopers will be denied the first pick in the national, pre-season and rookie drafts. :D

Re: Demons not as good as us

Right now we're a game clear with a game in hand and beat the twice this year, extending our run against them out to a decade. We've kept winning as the season has drawn to a close. They've fallen in a heap including a loss to lowly Carlton in a game that would've kept their slim finals hopes alive ...

Re: Is Jaeger Worth the Trouble?

I don't like the idea of trading away high picks on speculative players. We haven't had a great track record over the last decade or so of doing that and it could hurt us a few years from now when the colts we could've drafted would be finding their feet. Let's focus on getting the next Jade Gresham.

Re: North ditching everyone (Dal included)

I reckon the reason it was announced now was because the powers that be made the decision and didn't think it could stay in house for very long so decided to get on the front foot. No other reason than trying to manage the message (which is the only reason any club releases any news, truth be known).

Re: f*** you umpires you cheats

Let's just call it for what it is. The AFL wants certain teams to win the GF. We're not one of them. I've been saying for a while now that if either Sydney or GWS wins it this year, it will make the AFL the most successful club in modern times, winning flags in 2001, 02, 03, 05, 06, runners up in 07...

Re: Gresham and acres

I just hope that Gresham turns out great like a lot of you are saying here because most of you were saying the same thing about Lonie and Sinclair and look at them this year. I haven't written either of them off by any means. The difference at this stage is that Gresham is showing each week that he...

Re: What a surprise. Saints last for free kicks.

I've said for years they're a blight on the game. No accountability - a player can be dragged if they're having a shocker. But umpires make even more mistakes and nothing can be said or done. They're the only ones out there who aren't full time professionals and it shows. There could be four of them...

Why do people want to trade Longer?

He carried our ruck last year and has only been sidelined because he battled injury this year. The club was keen to re-sign him so he must be valued internally. You reckon other clubs will be jumping over each other to get him if we don't want him?
