Find it interesting that they stripped him of his Brownlow in 2012, but he is still listed as 2012 All Australian.

Surely if he is drug cheat and has to be stripped of the Brownlow, surely he has to be stripped of all accolades he won that year?

Reports we signed him for somewhere between $800-$900k/season. With the increase in the cap, surely there would have been clubs willing to offer anything from $1.3-$1.5 million a season for him. Had to laugh start of the season the media 'experts' had him ranked behind Hogan, Lynch and Moore (yes Da...

5. JoeDan - most pleasing factor was when everyone else was missing sodas and keeping the Saints he went back and nailed his first 3 shots on goals and kicked 3 of our first 4. 4. Zerrett - instrumental in setting up our midfield dominace. 3. Hurley - cut Riewoldt out of the game and if Riewoldt was...

I've heard Dodoro mention numerous times about how we are a club that likes to develop our own. Might have worked back in the days of the zones but in the new world of free agency, drafts and trading we need to get over that. You reckon the Hawks have any regrets trading for the likes of Burgoyne an...

He was the one breaking the lines from the half back flank, that started hitting targets in the corridor and provided overlap run, in the 2nd half of the 3rd quarter and last. I felt he was instrumental in us wrestling the momentum away from the Swans and setting up what should've been a match winni...

To be fair, until his injuries hit, he was definitely a gun and on the right path... I can remember quite a few of us thinking he was streets ahead of Hooker. Sadly, once injuries started to hit, he lost that consistency and ultimately his feel for the game at the highest level... :( He was a gun i...

There was also the bit where she got some on her hand, so wiped her hand on my shirt.

The almost 4-year-old refuse to wear a nappy to bed tonight. Not a major issue, she is usually okay, and she went to toilet before going to sleep and said she did both wees and poos. Anyway she goes to sleep, a little while later my wife walks past the room and said that it smelt like poo in there. ...

4. Irish
3. TBC
2. Tippa
1. Hooker

Apologies to just about everyone, but in particular Heppell, Watson and JoeDan

Stewart can do the Hooker role - ie free up Daniher to be more effective and chime in with 1 or 2 goals a game. Result - No net gain or loss Hooker can do the Hartley Role - ie hold down the oppositions key tall forward and provide intetcept marking in the D50 Result -:significant net gain. AA key ...

Any back to Andy McGrath, hope we start using him in the guts at times during the 2nd half of the season.

Saw a SEN tweet yesterday about Terry Wallace being astounded Ryan Burton isn't the favourite for the Rising Star award. Nice little reminder from Andy as to why that is the case. I cannot fathom how Terry Wallace has been allow to garner this bullshit "List Manager" media persona. I mean ...

Good ole Melbourne, they picked Scully and Trengove ahead of Martin.

Scully being paid millions to play for GWS and Trengove unable to get a game in the seniors for the Dees and failed a medical when they tried to trade him a year or two ago.

Zaka got plenty of the ball, but he also butchered it, particularly trying to hit up a target in the forward 50, but hey, he wasn't alone there.

Not surprised some didn't consider him worthy of a votes.

No votes People who get a pass mark Hurley, Heppell, Watson, McGrath, Daniher, Baguley, Dea, Parish, Goddard, Zaka. People who don't get a pass mark. Every other f***** out there. Yes that is right we had 12 f****** passengers tonight, no wonder we got f****** done. One note for Channel 7 commentary...

Dean Rioli and Campbell Brown have given him a whack on Twitter, while Brown is a massive flog he tweeted that he was a weak prick on the field and it seems he is also a weak prick off the field as well, hard not to agree with him. One of the weakest blokes I've ever seen in an Essendon jumper. Inte...

Joe Daniher: JD could become the best player in the comp. He has absolutely everything. Just needs to keep working on set shots. It's amazing how he's far more reliable kicking a goal at full tilt, dodging and weaving, from outside 50. Great to watch when on song. Just needs to eradicate the Melbou...

Club obviously believe Redman's got something, the gave him a 2 year extension, on his original 2 year deal mid last season.

Gee given the response of the spooky la las of a Indian cricket (Kumble & Singh) I'd hate to see what would have happened to the Indians if we had a decent spinner seeing that reckon SOK was average. Then you have sooks like Ganguly and Gavaskar who had a sook about the pitch and how it favoured...

Joins the likes of Steinberg, Slattery, Hams and more in recent seasons to be dropped from the senior list to the rookie list and be a complete waste. This move has never worked and is stupid list management on our part. I know he had a year to run on his contract and we would've had to pay him out ...
