Collingwood had a horrendus record with injries :lol: your kidding right? Malthouse played his kids because his list is so shallow and he only played them when he knew he could get awy with it. Look at the night against Richmond they had there best team minus three players so they played Toovey Cox ...

What was Attard? Played 20 games so theres your 2 Gilbert and Attard for last year. Armitage Howard and Allen will be players that will play more next year but there on our list so theres another 3 whats your problem remember only 22 blokes out of 38 can play each week so not all are going to or are...

Please dont compare our list to that of Collingwood and say they are better because of games won. Swap our draw with theres for one and the win loss ratio would be the same. Freo at the G on a 5 degree Friday night hardly compares to our road trip with 24 fit players and didnt play Port at Port so t...

Hows this thread looking today?

When the Swans got to 4 points Pies got the next 7 frees to zip and they were ordinary at best.

The umpiring all weekend was terrible West Coast Sydney and Kangas were all fingered. Im waiting for Malthouse to pass comment on the free kick count 27-15 the pies way.Is this part of your conspitacy Eddie?

It amazes me when people like Rodgerfox write that we won against Adelaide but they had no backline yet expect us to win and play outstanding football with our injuries and interupted seasons. Seriously you wouldnt have backed any team with any coach to perform as well as we did this year.[/quote]

Only two ruckman in the comp worth a top ten pick Cox and Leunberger all the rest are injury prone or have had one or two seasons at best or are past it.

Simple answer Saintmik is no we are not in trouble. The list we have has plenty of upside with the majority of our key players yet to reach there potential. With G retiring it leaves us with a more flexible forward line with two key forwards capable of holding down both key posts. The back ups for t...

Thommo will be playing a final for Casey on the weekend maybe he feels his value is there. Rather than spend long periods on the bench in the seniors as a token geture he will play a very important role in the Scorps finals campaign.

Does anyone know who has qualified to play Scorps finals if St Kilda arent in the finals race. Thanks

Yes, its a disgrace alright they showed it when they were doing there run down on other MRP verdicts. I wanted to kick my TV screen in.

Saw on 10 news that Guerra left the field bloodied after a off the ball incident. Darcy was the only dogs player in the area but suprise suprise the MRP are allowing Darcy to play his final game this Saturday. I cant beleive these pack of mafia like officials who arent even trying to hide their corr...

My main issue is that blocking has never been deemed a suspendable offence. Now that is every incident has to be graded with there ridiculous point system. Its the same with striking even a fairy tap gets viewed and graded.

Does the MRP panel now have to pass judgement on all blocks made during a game and pass verdict on all. The degree of impact obviously will vary but if they have now suspended one player for a off the ball block all players have to be reviewed and even minumum points have to be given. As a football ...

The AFL has announced the appeal hearing date it will be after round five 2008!

The thing that shytes me the most is that they wasted 4 hours of everyones life when clearly ther desision was made before hand. How can Baker have no case to answer before the Freo snitch came forward and after his evidence is dismissed for the shyte it was Bakes still gets royally fingered. I cann...

Just listening to the muppet on SEN and want to drive down and rip him a new one. What a complete tosser. Comments like due to his deplorable record he HAD to get seven and action HAD to be taken against him. Listening to both SEN and 927 this morning everyone but him has this opinion. Tony Jones wa...

While Im dissapointed were we sit at this stage of the year I am rapt in the way we have fought on. This season could of so easily turned into the year Melbourne has had. Going into a block of games with only 25 max available was never going to leave us in a healthy position but to the clubs credit ...

Attard is differant to stoppers like Ling Bakes and Sewell as they play primarily on other teams best mids while Attard plays deep in defence. I couldnt care if he average 5 possys a game as long as he beats his opponent .

"meher babe" what does were you get picked up in the draft have to do with anything? Do the names Cox Rutten and even Milne mean anything to you. According to your theory Josh Fraser is a better footballer than Cox because Josh went at number one in the draft. Regardless of were a player i...

Its bothered me for a while why so many posters have Attard as someone who should be dropped and some who dont think he should be promoted permanatly. Attard has been what we have lacked for so long a reliable small defender or run with player hes courageous tackles well and while his skills arent s...

X'S disposal was disapointing on Sat night but he did a job on Kennelly limiting his run out of defence which helped us a lot. He also tried to break the lines a lot with his run, its not his fault if he wins the ball and takes the player on only to look up to a flooded forward line. What do you do ...

Does anyone know what the free was for when Malcheski kicked that last goal X had the ball across half back then the ball was handed over and a goal kicked anyone?

Hall wont have a case to answer but it would be interesting to hear the umpires reasoning to why there was no free to Dal for to high then why he was pinned for holding it. There is no doubt in my mind that the umpires changed there interpretations of holding the ball for that game a couple on Jones...
