Awesome work from time and time again Cameel.


Just wondering if you or anyone know who won all the comps we had for AFL till date.

Probably would have been a more ideal situation had Matthews stayed another year, Voss got a year as an assistant under his belt at WC and then come to the Lions with a bit of experience.

Nah, four years out of the 8, with Black only getting older. Leigh Matthews either had to stay for the long run (i.e. build back the empire and go with it into 2010 onwards) or now was the time for Voss to take over.

Reckon Leigh did the right thing.

Yeah that's from Matthew's perspective. From Brisbane's perspective though, would have been better if this happened next year.

Voss as coach is a bad choice.

Haha soon we're gonna have more Tigers fans on here than any other club

Yeah, if I was a Tigers fan, I'd spend most of my time talking about cricket too

Could be a bit of a rude reality shock for Voss with Black and Bradshaw probably past their peak and Brown also likely to be beginning to decline. Black and Brown in particular won't be easily replaced. Still, they've not got the worst list of the teams out of the eight.

2007 Winner: Pasag
2007 R-Up: Hoggy

Pretty sure it's the other way around. He was in the lead for most of the year, I overtook him towards the end then he got over me in the last week or so.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

I was so shockin' in tipping last year.

and Brown also likely to be beginning to decline.

Wonder if you'd be saying that if he didn't re-sign yesterday?

Hoggy - 117
BoyBrumby - 112
Oz Fan - 111
Cameeel - 110
Alternative - 106

Matteh - 97
Faaip - 94
Ash Chaulk - 92
Dark Hunter - 90
Clapo - 86

Hoggy gets the first perfect round of 2007.

Actually looks like I won during the normal season but we did finals as well and he overtook me.

Nah, I'd actually said earlier in the week that I hoped we didn't trade for him as I thought we'd be forced to pay too much for a bloke who's probably going to start to decline in the next year or two.

 

[Jono]

I'd get angry at you but its such a good call and so true

Was only joking.

You have big Trav anyway! What a star.

That's the other thing. We have quite a few prospects for big forwards - none are as good as Brown has been, but we've got bigger holes to fill.

 

[pasag]

Paul Roos is a ****

 

[vic_orthdox]

Haha, legend.

 

[Josh]

Yeah.

 

[howardj]

Yeah, I've really got into AFL this year. I cannot wait for the finals. For mine, obviously Geelong are the favourites with perhaps Hawthorn as the biggest threat. Anyway, I hope the game tonight is on TV at a reasonable hour...

Anyone entering a finals dream team, btw? Link:
