besides the 15 metre freaking shockers the rioli free kick infuriated me, he had to resort to staging what a repulsive joke. also, later on hawks have the ball in the centre through a mark, then it was called play on and we manage to get the ball back and are free on the wing and then the umpire cal...

If we are in this game and its close then try to suppress one player:

Burgoyne.

Stop this guy.

Whenever hawks are in trouble he pops up and wins the game for them, like against the bulldogs last week, he is an amazing player.

10 years go by fast, I was a member of the previous incarnation of this site as well.
I think it was upgraded or changed or something in 2004 and you had to rejoin?

Go saints.

disappointing about spencer was hoping he would get a few more games this year to show what he is capable of as well as sippos

hope the spencer decision doesn't bite us in a few years

well according to fine delistings are:

white
sippos
markworth
simpkin

I must give credit to the saints management.....while i haven`t been to any other clubs game so i cant judge them i`m finding what the saints are doing is great the music hype give aways this might not get everyone in but they are giving it a red hot go. Maybe we will get female game on beforehand ...

All the best to schneids! thought he was great for us, still croinge a (little) from our misses from 15 metres in the geelong grand final but the entire team had the yips that day

He played some excellent games and was basically injured for the past few years

Reasons we'll finish closer to the bottom next year: - Gold Coast won't be so bad (assuming they keep some good players) - Essendon won't be so bad (once suspensions are complete, admittedly a risk for them) - Melbourne should be a bit better again (especially with Petracca) - Hard to see which tea...

I think the Bulldogs are showing the way of how to bounce into contention. They've had a poor finish to last year, which has lead to an excellent draw in 2015, and are now making hay while the sun shines. They will probably crash back to Earth with a tougher draw in 2016, but ultimately will still ...

we are the highest finals crowd drawing side in vfl/afl history on average we are the 3rd highest finals crowd drawing team since the afl expansion on average, just behind hawthorn and collingwood when we were flying we had more members than richmond, but things have changed since then i guess. that...

strange. he was BOG 2 weeks in a row in the magoos

In: Murdoch, Goddard

Out: Ross, Fisher

Anyone getting the feeling that across the board, games are becoming far more congested and far less interesting to watch? Any support for a Rule that says that at least 4 players should be behind the Centre line at all times ?? Its funny i was talking about this exact topic today, must be a common...

Roberton was excellent

well i have calmed down now after the game, and really the umpiring whilst one sided in my mind didnt impact the end result by much.

but how many goals did they get from free kicks? i counted around 5.

my only worry for McCartin is that i hope he has a big enough cabinet to hold all his coleman medals

Spencer would go well on that list Spencers debut Disposals 6 Kicks 4 Marks 3 Handballs 3 Goals 3 Behinds 1 Tackles 1 Inside 50s 2 Clangers 3 Frees 1 Frees Against 1 Contested Possessions 4 Uncontested Possessions 4 Contested Marks 2 Marks Inside 50 2 One Percenters 1 Goal Assists 1

Well that was disappointing. Collingwood played very well (they did rely on their more experienced, older players like Cloke, Swan, Pendlebury to fire up their team). Perhaps the conditions didnt suit us but what was really disappointing with the last quarter in particular where we seemed to be exha...

wow, apologies to people around row d level 1 as went absolutely crazy at the umpires. man they got 3 goals from 50 metre penalties, the 1st one in the first quarter was there i guess, such an annoying time for it to happen as we were leading, but the other 2 i was livid, and the non lonie free kick...

just got back from the game and thought longer was fine, didnt see much of eli, and hardly anything from saad, shenton i thought did fine but his disposal at times out of defence was terribad

saints by 27

I think our defense looks good, not sure who else we would add besides wright and gilbert, don't mind the forward line although would love to see the addition of one of mcmartin/lee/white surprised by acres not being in the team anyways, still think we are a sniff, it was hickey that turned the game...

Great news

Good post I am really interested to see the progress of Murdoch, Ross, Newnes, Wright, Webster and MIchington (yes him as well) this year, I really rate Murdoch. Obviously Dunstan, Billings should also progress well and hopefully step up a level, Acres was a highly rated player in his draft but he h...

Great news,congrats to Roo.

Seems like we have a good bunch of father sons coming up with Loewe twin and the Hayes boy as well.
