    anyone going to the B.L. vs Hawthorn match? i sure as hell am, and the hawks better not lose this time and what about adelaide making the top 4? last year they looked unstoppable and had a percentage of 150% after about ten games, and only that terrible list of major injuries last year...

    Afl- 2007

    gotta remember when freo won seven or so in a row late in the season. i thought they had the form to win the grand final, so i reckon they will be right up there this year. and the dogs played some of the best football last season when you consider they were without most of their big men, so...

    Uh Oh!

    abromhovich made his money probably with a little bit of help from the russian mafia as many of the richer russians these days have. so maybe he could call on some old friends and have his ex wife whacked. mind you, it would look mighty suspicious...

    2018 World Cup Bids

    really good points there, but someting tells me the US really aren't in the running for this one. the 94 WC was almost needed in the USA to grow the game, and it worked to a certain extent. but it isn't hard to have the biggest tv rights to a sporting event if you are the 3rd bigest country in...

    Uh Oh!

    Well, in case anyone hasn't heard, Roman Abromhovich is divorcing from his wife of fifteen years. the bad part is the divorce settlement could be something like $US13 billion dollars of his $US18 billion dollars. there still would be a large amount of money left, but how much more would...

    Why people think Americans are stupid

    yeah, now those guys have become the chaser's war on everything. check it out on youtube, or you can download full episodes or watch the best segments at the official site of the TCWOE. and yeah, the "they only interviewed texans" technique is a good excuse. like australians and...

    Afl- 2007

    does anyone actually want to win though? i mean if you look at all previous results, people who win the nab cup are most likely not going to make the eight, like geelong last year-touted as premiership favourite, and my hawks in 2003, when shwab said we would win the grand final, and we ended up...

    damn right. let's just get into afl premiership season mode and start plaing some games that actually matter. the nab cup never represents how well a team will do later on in the year so why bother?

    2018 World Cup Bids

    well, some one would be prepared to pay for a ticket for a world cup match, so need real need to bother with giving them away, although that sounds good. as for supply and demand i guess one of the major factors ticket wise would be that in england, as far as most people would know there is...

    2018 World Cup Bids

    money, probably not, as for some premier league teams an adult ticket can cost 40 pounds or 100 aussie dollars for the cheapest seat. that idea is laughable over here, where you can walk to the game and get in with a bit of loose change. the a-league grand final tickets started from 35 dollars...

    july in australia spells winter, no real advertisment for the climate. plus it will be fighting fot the attention and groundspace of the AFL/NRL seasons. and yes, fifa needs a change of head. mr blatter is a bad old man and a well known liar to australians, assuring us that oceania was going to...

    2018 World Cup Bids

    if you guys check on wikipedia.org you will see the list of all possible candidates. my opinions follow Australia: Stadia second only to england and maybe the US. the mcg (100,000), stadium aus (83,000, up to 90+) are the two major ones. a 70,000 seater in perth which is likely to be built...

    Absolute Stunners FC

    i see number 23 isn't taken so if i could have that that would be great. may go along nicely with the greats that used that number like shane warne, michael jordan, david beckham, and urrr, me? and as for a stadium name, maybe make it a mix of major grounds. someone said to make it old...

    Good Wicketkeepers?

    after watching my 22 year old wk drop catch after catch, i wonder if the total number of career catches and stumping makes them less likely to drop it more often? if you try a older wk with lots of experience and catches i'm pretty sure you'll find there are less dropped catches. is this true...
