Will miss weeks. Quote Selected
Re: Northern Blues vs. Geelong at Preston on Sunday Reply #33 – June 30, 2014, 10:11:07 pm DISPOSALS: Graham 29, Bell 23, Cattapan 21, Watson 18 Sounds like the 2 Irishmen had decent days, especially Byrne when moved to defence. Apparently Holman had a defensive job as well. Geelong managed 10 goals in a row at one stage. Our mids had a pretty rugged day.Managed to get this siting through the tweets. Quote Selected

Re: Northern Blues vs. Geelong at Preston on Sunday Reply #36 – June 30, 2014, 10:38:34 pm They just mentioned on footy classified that Jeffy had 5 disposals for the game, playing on a wing !! WTF is going on.?Not 3 years ago the 3 amigos were all the rage...1 has gone to greener pastures, Yarran has certainly stepped up to the plate but Jeffy??? he's gone so far backward it aint funny.What is it? Is it Mick? We were once a quick team with options and weapons a plenty up forward ( always missing a KPF but nonetheless )....now we've got squat! Quote Selected

There was nothing wrong with Ratten a few white-ant traps wouldn't have fixed! I've written it before, culturally we are the new Nthmond or maybe even Sth Melbourne Hellas, driven by a weak board and bitching supporters. The media know it, they rely on us biting like baracuda!

Re: Northern Blues vs. Geelong at Preston on Sunday Reply #38 – July 02, 2014, 12:31:52 am South Melbourne shouldn't be mentioned here LP, you show a lack of understanding by even mentioning them. After all, South Melbourne still are the most successful soccer club in Australia having won four national titles, even though they were effectively denied a license by Football Federation Australia.Not the club's fault that they wanted to break the game away from the old NSL power clubs.
