    How do you know what players are being paid? A lot of players - especially older ones with injury histories - have incentives in their contracts that reward them for the amount of games they play. Equally, when they miss large chunks of the season they miss out on a large chunk of dough as well...

    Got 8 trades left and only need one more gun upgrade in my forward and backline, so this week gives me some licence to do some gardening. Funds are a small issue so I think I can burn one of those trades on a cash cow and then bring in Sam Fisher next week, probably for Danny Stanley. The Town...

    Would've got 2400 in DT if I'd done the smart thing and benched Vickery and played Gilbert instead. Oh well, will just have to settle for being awesome.

    Well I don't really know what the point of punishing the bloke is if you're going to suspend him for the rest of the year and more, then turn around and say "But actually, we'll let you play finals." It's obviously not going to be easy for him to go into the intensity of finals without any...

    Have no idea how Mattner is even walking off. Was knocked out and then landed face first. Ouch.

    It's plank of wood dumb x braindead dumb x drinking a bottle full of bleach and standing outside in the sun for 4 hours and getting sunstroke dumb x a million.

    What do people think about Heath Shaw? I think you can make a case either way for the appropriateness or otherwise of what he did. To me that's not important. What is unbelievable is that it's not the first time this has happened. Kieren Jack got nailed for a $5 bet and pretty much since then...

    It's the only option left on the table now but that means nothing. All the expansion areas are represented and no team is going to be allowed to fold for at least the life of this TV rights deal (and in reality, probably beyond that too). And the big difference is that the AFL seems to be...

    :cool: Would've sailed under if not for the freakishly high scoring first quarter. So much for not beating top four sides.

    Happy for my points bet to be dead at quarter time ftr.

    Finally the press has kicked into gear, just gotta stay with Geelong and hope the two six day breaks get them at the end.

    Play on the total points tonight, under 185. Get on.

    **** I hate Richmond sometimes (most of the time tbf). The Game Plan on One HD talking about their first quarter efforts - won ONE for the year, and that was the week I was potting them for it.

    Most disappointing thing about this is that had Geelong won you'd have got at least $2.50 on WCE next week, you'll be lucky to get much over evens now.

    I was talking about it with a client on Thursday morning, and got ridiculed for the idea. Good job on being the only team to do it so far but not sure what the point of the chicken-littling is.

    nice ninja snip. C'mon dude, tell me you won't lose to Richmond next week.

    All well and good but no one doubted that you could beat Geelong if the cards fell the right way. The same way no one doubts you can lose to Richmond next week.

    Hmm. Geelong will probably come out breathing fire next week but I guess that's much of a muchness. They're vulnerable now. In other news have drawn up my predictions for the epic battle between myself and Jono. It's Rockliff/Birchall/Gilbert/Smith = 315 points vs...
