Now then...
Here we are. Another annus horribilis has come and (almost) gone, and we have arrived at the final match of the season.
Another finals series to watch from afar, but worse than that, another spoon to stomach. Personally, I've been expecting the spoon since the first couple of...
Did you happen to see the football meeting last night?? The Blues of Carlton beat the Bears of Brisbane by kicking a pumped up kangaroo's arse through some big sticks stuck in the ground in the last minute of the third half!! It was most exciting!!!

Melbourne or St Kilda? Next GF day it will be 53 and 51 years, respectively.
We've seen the Swans/Dogs break their droughts in recent years. Phenomenal efforts.
I'd say Melbourne if forced to, but it's pretty bloody close...
What a lovely way to start my Sunday...
Thought the lads showed some real heart in the end, given the walking wounded we had on the bench.
Menz remains out of sorts...
Cripps...nothing needs to be said...

Now then...
We are in more strife than the early settlers, and scanning down the main board, it's all a bit doom-and-gloom-around-woe-is-me here, with good reason, of course.
That being case, this thread is for those POSITIVES you can find at the moment, in the here and now...we have the I...

New stuff from Caro re the COLA...
I'm not here to argue the case either way, but by this logic shouldn't players in cheaper markets (Adelaide/Brisbane for example) get less than those in Melbourne? They earn the same but can buy more due to lower property prices etc…and where does Perth fit...

Now then....GAME ON!!!!
Great win over Norf by the lads, but it is time to look forward...one week at a time even...;)

I see that the thread dealing with his alleged misdemeanor has been locked so I realize the great man is perhaps a touchy subject right now.
However, thanks need to be given, yet again, for services rendered to the jumper. His determination last night to keep us in the game was superhuman...
Based on what we have seen in Curnow, the continued development of Mitch, and those we have waiting in the wings, does anyone else think this name will haunt us in future years?
Kid can play, one of the few that will be able to hold his head up after a crap performance by Melbourne today.
Rideo then,
I just got a txt from a mate of mine describing a comment by Matthew Lloyd on television.
Apparently he said that since Geelong and St Kilda were on the slide, Hawthorn and Essendon were the only teams capable of posing a threat to Collingwood this year. Of course, I...
