The 2011 AFL Thread: *insert desired expletives here*

[cobl04]

how come Carney was condemned for being 0.052? that's barely over the limit and he got savaged? i'm assuming he has a history of drinking offences?

Signs are looking somewhat promising for us this season.

no players is Mick's top 50.

 

[bono_man2002]

Are Buddy and Goddard really that good? Riewoldt is about as straight a kick as Travis Cloke, but meh.

Luke Hodge would probably be in my top 2. Ablett appears to have dropped because he's now in a "lesser team"

 

[intedomine]

Goddard is THAT good. He's one spot too low, the most valuable and versatile player in the league, an absolute champion.

Franklin on the other hand. Sheahan's a weak and irrelevant football scribe, and putting Franklin at number one is probably Sheahan just trying to appease the AFL and their desire to have the fashionable Franklin as the face of the league.

Sheahan says it best when he says nothing at all, because he never really has anything important to say and makes a living out of stating the obvious. He's just an echo to what we already know.

Franklin was great in 08, in 10 he kicked one freak goal of note and offered little more to write home about, but the AFL love him.

 

[cobl04]

Yeah Goddard is one of the very best in this comp. Buddy at #1 is not right.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

no players is Mick's top 50.

And this is relevant how?

Sheehan's lists are always a joke, anyway.

 

[cobl04]

Anyone know what the collingwood player's hand signal was?

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Ahem.

 

[cobl04]

The Gary Coleman (Memorial) Medal has become "The Charlie" in honour of Mr Sheen

 

[The Sad Punk]

Official site layout has changed. I had a big enough headache before I saw it.

I feel really out of the loop because I've no idea what it means.

 

[cobl04]

I feel really out of the loop because I've no idea what it means.

what was it? maybe i will be able to explain.

in other news, the AFLPA have given Ricky Nixon seven (7) days as of yesterday to answer to their findings that he is an idiot. which takes up to the first game of the season. awesome.

This article has a picture of the gesture: Magpie apologises over grand final hand gesture

 

[cobl04]

Ohh ok... I think that means

Spoiler

two for the pink, one for the stink

.

But that's a ridiculous thing to get so up in arms about.

 

[Axver]

Wow, yeah, who cares about that. I actually didn't even know there was a fuss until the apology was made. That seemed to get more coverage than the gesture itself got!

 

[Vlad n U 2]

And not to bring up Sheahan's list again, but it's ridiculous that Scott Thompson didn't poll at all.

 

[The Sad Punk]

Lewis Broome should have been number 1. Who gives a shit that he hasn't played a game and is the size of a shoebox, kid'll be a star.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Who is this Lewish Broome you speak of? Go on, I'm interested.

 

[Axver]

Lewish

Tipsy, Vlad?

 

[cobl04]

Tipsy, Vlad?

good one!!!

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Tipsy, Vlad?

Just a rogue letter.

good one!!!

Shut up, Cobbler.

 

[cobl04]

How is it that Hawthorn are all of a sudden raging contenders for the flag according to many people? Where's the justification for that?

Do you drink bottles of Smirnoff as you post on here vlad? It is your country's most important export.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Actually our biggest exports are tractors and other heavy machinery.

 

[cobl04]

Actually our biggest exports are tractors and other heavy machinery.

...filled with vodka?

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Smirnoff is a Russian product, I don't know how you came to the conclusion that it is my country's main export.

*implied Friggin' Cobbler*

 

[cobl04]

I thought that's where you were from... il mio sbaglio

 

[Vlad n U 2]

No, I am not Russian.

A genuinely interesting and inspiring story coming out of this pre-season? Who knew?!

He SHOULD drink Belarus Sineokaya as he posts. It would make his posts 100x better/funnier.

You need delicious vodka in your life to make your tastebuds happy and your posts super excellent.
