awesome effort Pat.....we are all right behind you on this one. F*** the AFL F*** Demetriou and Anderscum. They are a bunch of a**holes that always let their own pissy pathetic agendas get in the way of the truth. How DARE THEY treat OUR club with such disrespect YET AGAIN. Come on here Demetriou i...

I do not for one minute subscribe to the theory we get a raw deal at the tribunal or anywhere else in the AFL. That is just emotional rubbish. Once again I admire you faith in the process, but I don't share it. Two of our players have received severe head injuries (fractured skull, and swelling on ...

Freo have the most suspensions for the year but of course the AFL is picking on the Saints.

That is why it is going to the tribunal. We will see the evidence and if he didnt do anything he will get off. Fair enough, nice to see that you have faith in the process. Do you think that he will get off if the evidence consists of 1 freo official saying he saw Baker hit Farmer ? If that is all t...

That's the problem right there plugger, show us the evidence

Yer they hate the Saints. Please give me a logical reason why they would, not emotional.

He has been charged. Bid deal. If he can prove he didnt do it he will be found not gulity. Why should worry yet. lets hear the evidence. Maybe he did hit him and he will get what he deserves. maybe he didnt and he will be found not guity. I think the latter will happen. Umm..so he's guily til prove...

Yes as usual the AFL are picking on us. They hate the Saints. We get the worst decisions. What rubbish. No wonder we are so negitive. There's more evidence to support that than there is to support a charge against Baker. Has he been found guilty. No. Have you seen the evidence because if you had ca...

Ins will definatly be Ferguson, Kosi if fit and either Attard or CJ. Outs will be Harvey, Maxy and maybe M Clarke. they will not pick players who played yesterday unless there are more injuries than we hope for. They are not going to rest players and not give them a chance to shine for Scorps and no...

RL did mention that Bakes had told him it wasnt reportable so I think we can safely say Bakes was involved.

just got home from the game. Our best in my opinion was Armo. Sweens played well as did Allen in his first game. Rix and Brooks battled hard but didnt do much. Mini was good anf Jimmy played a good second half. Ferg and CJ didnt play because of the 5 day break until the WCE game which would mean th...

Also Attard didnt play so not sure who will be in next week. He may be insurance for Bally.

We had more forward structure than the last few weeks. That was the difference. It allows us to put pressure on the ball carrier and creates turnovers which we have lacked the last few weeks.

blake is better = recovering from his back injury. again folks forget how he was an auto selection before being cracked by stafford :evil: I hope someone cracks stafford back. Blake's injury has never affected his form at all. He hardly played in 2003, played the first 2 games of 2004 (nothing spec...

Put Goose at CHF? He's had two shots on goal this year. One was smothered by the man on the mark, and the other was lucky to stay in the stadium.. well for instance when roo was being well-held and comfortably beaten in the second half last week perhaps goose could have broken the logjam by grabbin...

Yup, that makes sense - not.

I think he realises Rix is not up to it. He doesnt get enough possessions to hurt any side.

Not happy with those changes especially Raph, watching him this season has made me lose all my faith in him. Why bring in Birss? Lyon plays him in a negating role, we don't need Baker/L.Fisher and another stopper, it's just pointless, at least he dropped Attard, I'd still like one more tall forward...

:( brooks is gone for purely selfish reasons I hope he does't tear us to pieces at another team. watching rodan, fiora, ottens etc tears the richmond supporters up IMO. also can anyone remind me who was in the best for the scorpians? I remember V2 other than that was birss and raph tearing it up? D...

IN i think will be all of our emergencies last week and out could be Rix, Attard and and one other. Blake to ruck when Gilmore goes in there.

As Plugger said in another post, our game plan keeps the opposition in all of our games because of the lack of scoreboard pressure we create. Before each game we play we all know it's going to be close. We never get the opportunity to consider the prospects of a blow out win because we know our gam...

Win the ball in the centre kick it to Frase,Roo,Milney in the forward line not the wing or half back.... Goal Do it as much as you can per game. Is it that hard. Im with JB. even when we win i dont race home anymore to watch the replay or tape the game can see the whole match highlights on the winn...

On Kosi ... doubt he'd go. He's a Victorian, and Adelaide's premiership hopes are no better than ours (probably worse). ... You cant be serious .. with a bank balance to die for, amongst the best facilites in the league, unlimited budget for coaching and support staff and a list that arguable is at...
