i live up here in brissy and ive said it once and ill say it again, the gold coast is not a place for an AFL team it just wont create any profit, the sunny coast would be a better place i would think, since they actually have a team there but even then it's a massive gamble Agree. We don't want pla...

What is the point exactly?
Some gave very good service for a limited period just like many before them and were needed at the time.
Assume you meant contract details rather than contact.

The whole CHB line for the EFC is in dire need of a shake up, right now. If you look at Bradley, Lovett-Murray, Solomon, Welsh, McPhee, Winderlick to name a few......this part of the ground is where we lack any real subtance of quality (2006). Honestly, plopping Lucas in the hole will not make any ...

Yeah,well rose coloured glasses always get in the way.Fact of of the wonderfull Essendon life.
But no,Scott Lucas is no CHB,never will be and never was.
But who,don't know.
The first step would be stopping the opposition and let the creative players,well,create.
Can't do both at the moment.

Ah well good to see we all want attacking attitudes.All for that myself. But the first requirement of defence is exactly that.And CHB is the first test. Stop the opposition.Now. Forget about long bombs.Maybe works on the forward line but no hope on the backline unless you are Dustin Fletcher. Lucas,...

It's our single biggest problem.
Impossible to win a flag without a minimum good solid reliable player there.
A star would be good but a Kevin Walsh type of the 80's would suffice.
Lucas will never be the answer.
Who is,don't know.

Ah,yes,but. There are many issues and one of them is laziness.Communist systems do that to people.Arrogence as well in our case.

By now everyone should have found out all the details of these distributions to all clubs as a consequence of the massive TV deal.
Our's is 6.5 mil along with Geelong.Some of that is towards improvements at Windy Hill.
Collingwood is,with a few other clubs,including Fremantle,at 6.2 mil,the lowest.
