Robert Heatley Stand / 2015 Preseason Starts now!
So now 2014 is done and dusted, I sincerely hope the playing group (or what is to be left of it post draft/trades) gets some good rest in the coming weeks, as come grand final time (end Sept.), our squad should be running laps at Princess Park till xmas and beyond.

The Blues (along with all the other sides outside the top 8) all up to a 4 week advantage over the sides playing finals.

Lets use it Mick, and use it wisely.

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Post Game Pain: Carlton vs Port Adelaide
I feel ripped off paying $30 for GA ticket on the hill.

I left at three quarter time with a port supporting mate to hit the pub for a catchup beer. Neither of us enjoyed the one sidedness of last night one bit.

But yep, AO is a great venue indeed. World class.

Next time the Blues come to SA, ffs bring your A game lads. Please.

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Rd 19: Carlton vs Freo: Post Match Pain Again
I think its my fault chaps.

I traded Wood into my DT side yesterday.

Then I listened to the game on the radio in the man cave, until my brew was finished, then I went inside and caught the last 5mins on tv. That's when it went slightly pear shaped. Bah!

So blame me.

Overall though, as per many other posters not too disappointed with the result.

A bottom 6 finish and a top 6 pick is muchly required next season.

More positives for us than them in that game. Freo are not much chop, like Port currently too...

I'm pretty sure the game will be played while I'm flying from Dubai to Paris.

I suppose I can get a replay when I'm in Paris but I may check the results before spending my first night in Paris glued to an iPad screen.

Paris eh ? If I was in Paris, the last thing on my mind would be AFL footy. Fabulous city.

Enjoy.

Yup, sorry djc but not much sympathy for you here :P its 7 degrees!

I had to wash the ice off my windshield this morning in the hills here in SA... a tad chilly... just.

The Sports Desk / Re: 2014 World Cup.
You could make it shorter by dropping it down to 16 teams only to qualify instead of 32.

The Aussies would never make qualify if that happened though...

Loving the extra fta sport, throw in Le Tour too. Good value during the cold winter months here.

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Blues vs. Sydney in Sydney: Pre Match Prognostications
@DU - lose, not loose mate.

As in 'Brazil's defence was loose to non existent.'   :P

Back on topic, we will probably lose by 5-6 goals, with us playing 'ok' and the Swans relaxing & playing below their usual level. Seems to be the way of late for us when up against the better sides in the comp.

Hoping its on fta here in SA, but won't be shattered if its not televised.
