All Edmonton, arent we? Cmon the canada!

Hawthorn just wont f*** off and die, will they? Arseholes. They're so properly run, they just never have too long in the doldrums at all. Havnt they had enough brilliance in the last 15 years or so? Not sure i can take them being so arrogant and (begrudgingly) brilliant again :p

It always entertains me, this kind of classically mediterranean over the top nonsense - he's just being a greek bloke! poor old Nuno doesnt half get it in the neck - did great things at Wolves and then got disillusioned by them demanding more and more on ever thinner resources, did half of a...

I completely agree with you, and while that might make both of us miserable curmudgeons, so be it. I was desperate for match pints when i was 20-odd but now i welcome the chance for people to sober up a bit, cos of the risk of nonsense/violence/vomit/thrown pints/everything. Or do what Germany...

Ive got tickets for the Ireland v New Zealand game at the Amex, nicking my ex-girlfriend's kids with promises of pic n mix and live sporting entertainment :thumbsup: and hopefully a splendid win by the mighty irish

Dont like that rival thread at all - this is the foremost AFL-based thread on this provincial corner of t'net! in other news, a cavalcade of brilliantly close finishes this weekend, i particulalrly liked Geelong getting turned over by a sliver vs the Giants - and obvs west coast losing at...

gah, one point out :p shouldve put a couple of quid on the winning margin really, gave it a decent bash but beaten by a better team - and man, am i going to be saying that a few times this season now i suspect - GWS away next week . . .

Austria would be my tip i think, its got enough broad appeal and simultaneous niche sensibility

Fascinating to see how Freo bounce back from abject misery last week, it doesnt get much bigger than a live game of an evening against (sadly) the best supported team in the comp. I'm slightly reassured that he pies have rested four of their more influential players cos of the four hour flight...

I loved that Shearer just couldnt compute it, as well - 'he's shaped to shoot, and then he hasnt, and i'd have shot there' fucks sake Alan, hes dummied to put the defender on his arse, its so much cleverer than you can even envisage :LOL:

Ah, well yeah then - - Centre half forward and Full forward up front, your classic massive bloke/small fella combination (most of the time) - your two on-ball midfielders - both working in tandem against the other side's onballers, trying to win the ball and make first use off your ruck - two...

I'll pop along at some point and give it a watch, im quietly fascinated by the nine-a-side version - it makes perfect sense with our posts and pitches etc, and its more relatable for all us europeans really - they play it in france etc as well, my mate's daughter is at Uni and her other half is...

Absolute crock of bollocks. Playing away to middling Vic sides, we should be at the very least splitting the results somewhat, winning here and there, but in our last three - away to Essendon last season, and away to melbourne and st kilda this - we've lost all three. And have been more than a...

As a Canadiens fan, ive got little to cheer on now - first priority is the mighty Habs, who i did think would struggle to get thru cos they were very late additions to be wild card anyways, and it always looked a bit tricky. never mind, next season . . . Then my next priority is anyone playing...

Ugh, im at work so only able to follow the score, but an all-time stinker at Marvel tonight as St Kilda are squeezing the life out of Fremantle - 27 points to 7 at half time. seven points kicked ffs! thats one of our worst ever halves of football, and we've been a hilariously shit team at...
