Surprise, surprise. I disagree with Ancient Tiger's statement "Omission and changing of evidence means nothing in the end though because it can just be thrown out at the tribunal with the defence giving sworn statements that state the contrary." I identified changed evidence because I had...

Assuming all costs against Essendon, is this a significant amount for the club? Did he say all costs against us? I'd be more disappointed if that happened. Nothing yet, no "Middleton J: ASADA complied with the rule of law in investigation, supply of information to AFL with interim report was l...

His time will come but it is not right now (unless we get injuries). Gumby has been made to earn his spot and has done so (and was probably unlucky that the coach decided he needed to be rested). He had the rest, and then dominated in the VFL he was the obvious inclusion for Hurley. I really have no...

I saw them here in Perth and agree with your comment about leaving the microphone.

It was sort of sad watching him do his old man shuffle.

The rest of the band were brilliant...Ozzy was good but they were superb.

I was wondering if you would comment on this Rob

It certainly was a good win.

Brisbane received a massive boost when they merged with Fitzroy. Chris Johnson, the name Jonathan Brown ring any bells? plus a supporter base in Victoria. Same with Sydney. They got Souths supporters, some heritage an actual team to buy into which didn't seem like some concocted rubbish. Its pretty...

And apparently got them going when they went on a 9 goal run in the third quarter.

Does this count as one of his good games for the year?

Watson has strained his calf again in the NSW V Q'LD game

not up to date on the absolute latest. made runs before that. Just googled Harris. Out for SA series back for Sri Lanka. Pity. I would go ape shit if they pick Hilf over Starc. Should play Mitch Starc, aint seen an aussie bowler swing the ball as well as he does for a while. So you would just ignor...

I actually agree with I think Greg Baum's column. Folau has been a disaster. GWS will lose all those Folau fan's the accumulated. He will do more converting AFL kids to league than the other way round in the long run . They'll manufacture a successful onfield side up at the giants I am sure(by what...

I'm sorry but of course Tippet should be punished as should Bulcher as should AFC. They were all complicit in this. Tippet would have known that making that agreement (particularly AFC agreeing to underwrite an additional $200K outside the cap regardless of whether they could fit that money in the ...

Marketing wise, especially in selling this new club, Falou was worth every cent. His leaving will now lift a huge burden off the player himself and the club. Well said Col...the media generated in NSW when he defected to AFL would have been huge and now there will be a lot more reporting about him ...

Not here in Perth...we get bumped if either of the local teams are playing on the same day/time

He already is.

Bigger than NLM you tool?

Can someone please ensure me his not getting another contract next year?? If he did get delisted you'd have nothing left to add here. Would you then bugger off? Personally I think that'd be trade-off I'd be more than happy to take. I'll still post here just have some positive stuff to say. I'm not ...

I think a lot of the push for a 2nd language (and particularly an Asian language) is based on the expectation that the Asian Region will become the dominant economic area over the coming years and so it will help us as a nation if we have people who can readily interact with businesses in the Asian ...

I heard he's been guaranteed a position in the leadership group and a coaching gig when he retires.

The only spud around here is you.

BERT wrote:Was Hooker ever on the table? It looks like West Coast and St Kilda made the deal and then approached Essendon. Essendon mentioned it to Cale who said no and that was the end of it.

That's pretty much what Dodoro said on the club website.
