Re: 24 test positive and still nothing done

The fact that the AFL release these figures shows they are doing the opposite of covering it up.  In fact I think they are going about this in the most realistic way, admit there is a problem, look to educate and rehabilitate players with a problem on the first couple of positives, then cut them los...

Re: AFL 2007

The Saints are a joke.  I'd be surprised if they made the finals.

Footscray are easily the strongest Victorian team at the moment, well balanced list with heaps of depth.

Go the Tiges though.

Re: Norths Devils

It would be considered safer on the younger bodies to keep them in the colts system.  Few teenagers are physically developed enough to step up like Inglis and compete with people up to 10-15 years older than them.  Even then Inglis had time out last year with stress fractures.

Re: NAB Cup

Not a great start for us, especially in the first half.  We certainly didn't field a full strength team though while Geelong were pretty much at full strength.  They were certainly hungrier for the win than the Tigers. 

Hopefully Richo's injury isn't serious.

Just wonder why you are a Easts Fan?

I lived near the Easts ground when i was up in Brisbane
Grew up in the eastern suburbs of Brisbane and always supported them.  I was about 10 when the Broncos came into the NSW competition and hated them.

That's a shame Surandy.  I remember last year the WCC was telecast live on 9, that was a pleasant surprise.

Re: Stadium NO closer

The Victory are very short-sighted.  Many things could happen including loss of form, they could go bankrupt, another Melbourne team in the comp splitting the support.  There are a lot of egos involved there I think. I'm not sure why a $190m state-of-the-art facility is required though?  Surely a co...

Re: Storm Games on FTA TV

Ratings wise it is best for nein to run dead against the AFL and show the game later.  It is a pretty short-term strategy as it makes it difficult for kids, but nein is a very badly-run network.

Re: That other game

The advertising of rugby has gone a long way downhill since O'Neill left.
