[Sue@Home]

Neesa the first step has been taken :15cool: now Carlton has to win the grand final to get the million dollars off :14hah: nab.:14clap: :14clap:

[Michael@ton]

Such a shame SUSAN, the BLUES have by far the best heritage and have languished in the bottom three teams for yonks :smirk: :smirk: , but they are definitely worth having around, every team needs an easy 4 points every now and then and the BLUES had become to be thought of as such a team, maybe this year will be different, but all I can say is GO THE BLOODS, whoops SWANS.:wavey:

[Koolicks]

Well done blues good game last night, Sue i think they might get in the top 8 this year, i think its blues year to have a strong run mayb not to the top but up there:):):)

[Sue@Home]

Thanks Nessa,:kissing: anything would be an improvement on the last years effort, GO BLUES GO.

[Koolicks]

yeah true:P

[Michael@ton]

Cogratulations to the BLUES, Susan, is it true that besides winning the NAB Cup, they also get a $1,000,000.00 if they win the Grand Final, because that is the highest incentive I've ever heard of, GOOD LUCK. :23goodjob :23goodjob

Headlines that would be remembered forever.:15cool:

i say go the crows !!!!!!!!!

[Michael@ton]

i say go the crows !!!!!!!!!

Might be a spent force this year, as all their very good players are about 2 or 3 years past their prime.

But have a look at the BLOODS, whoops SWANS, and there you'll find that Paul Roos keeps on plucking young players of outstanding quality almost every year and as one member says, The Sydney Swans Rock!!!!!! :12cheer: :12cheer:

Great to have the footy back. Now there is something to watch on Telly at the weekends.

Did anyone try fantasy/dream/virtual footy teams - I reckon they are great fun, and it gives you an interest in all the games so you can watch how your players are going, and look for new talent to include in your team.

Go Swanees.

Go Swanees. Tigerlilly Is that Super Coach?

[Tigerlilly]

Sue - Herald Sun has Super Coach, and the AFL has Dream Team. I have enrolled for both. Did it last year to - had a great time swapping players when mine all kept getting injured. Hopefully, there wont be so many knees done this year.

[Tigerlilly]

I just got my results for round 1 from Super Coach. I am 11,644th, so I think I had better update a couple of players for the next round !!!

Good luck to Ryan and Jarrod, they will probably pass me in a couple of weeks.

[Koolicks]

yeah im in both comps i think they are great good idea for who made them up :):)

[Michael@ton]

yeah im in both comps i think they are great good idea for who made them up :):)

Nessa, is it still open to all and sundry or do you have to be a member of some club, secondly as Tigerlilly was talking about, do you get to change players as the year progresses and lastly how do you join each competition, the Sun Herald (is it the same one Australia wide) and the AFL one, do you have to go online to join this one ??? Thanks Nessa. :huge:

Gotta agree !! Hope the 1st win is the start of a great season....!!

And, for what it's worth, GO STORM.....

Cheers, Peter...

[Dianne W Qld]

Suppose I must be 20 years too late too.....I've been a Hawthorn supporter for over 30 years and always will be....Hawthorn and Essendon certainly were a force in the '80s and they will both be again :thumb:
Hopefully sooner rather than later :hurray: :hurray:

[Michael@ton]

And, for what it's worth, GO STORM.....

Cheers, Peter...

I will agree there Peter, although not my 1st or 2nd team, I really enjoy watching the MELBOURNE STORM play Rugby League, but how is that a team that is so far better than the others gets beaten in the game that really counts, the GRAND FINAL. :!!!icon41 :!!!icon41 :!!!icon41

Storm had a fantastic season and so disappointed to be beaten on the day by the Broncos after finishing minor premiers....but as in all sport and having been said a million times before, it's how they play on the day and it only takes one winning game to hold that trophy aloft, but it takes a whole season of good play to make it to the final two....

More like coming back to earth with a :5Thud: , Susan, but don't get despondent it's only Round 2, even the best teams these days don't win them all, let's pick one, OH shall we say Sydney, there's no way know that they will come through the rest of the Home and Away series, without losing at least 1 or 2 games, but make the 8 they shall and after that anyone can win. :12cheer: :12cheer: :12cheer: . GO THE SWANIES !!!! :12cheer: :12cheer: :12cheer:

When I went 3 weeks ago at the airport the West Tigers were catching a flight...partner all but ignored me...when they picked me up the Storms were heading out...again I was ignored....What can I say Footballers obviously have something I haven't.:MISSIN~18
For what it is worth...Go Swannies.....if it had been them at airport...I would of said to partner...who are you :3rofl3: :3rofl3: :3rofl3:

Hi all, I am getting Austar on just to watch my football team.
My grandson Ryan has just got into the Bendigo under 11's Soccer team
he did a trial for them and kicked 4 goals, GO RYAN.

Jill, I can understand your hubby being in awe of the MIGHTY GOLD & BLACKS, and you sure hit the nail on the head with THE (BLOODS) i.e. SWANNIES as another member said The Swans Rock!!!!! :12cheer: :12cheer:

Having played both codes Rugby League mainly in NSW and Q'ld and SANFL in South Aussie, I can say they both have unique qualities about them and besides the managers the blokes who get the most money are those who play AFL (by far) as their salary cap per club is something like 4 times the amount of a RL franchise.

Anyway, come-on Friday night, we've got 2 NRL games and can tape an AFL game. :8cloud9: :8cloud9: :8cloud9: :8cloud9:

Susan why do want Austar Susan, we all know the GOOD OL' NAVY BLUES are going to be closer to the bottom eight than the top eight,

:3rofl3: :3rofl3: :3rofl3: When I was a young lady I use to go to the football every saturday just to watch the blues win, one saturday some guy tried to hit my boyfriend on the head with a beer bottle, he missed him and got me instead, after that my dad would never let me go again to the football. All I can do now is watch them play on tv, whether they win or loose I love to watch the BLUES play.:12cheer: :12cheer:

up here in queensland we are lucky to get three games to watch i havent seen swans play this year yet i think we might get them this weekend as they are playing the lions :):):)

[Michael@ton]

We're lucky here Nessa, we get their game every week, and it's great to hear that the loud crack that Big Bad Barry heard last weekend proved a false alarm, he has been given the "all-clear" to play this weekend up there (I think it's up there).:cheers:

By the way Susan, it is on free to air TV today, and although a close game, I favour the RED & BLACK "JET" BOMBERS, that was really terrible what happened to youn at the footy all those years ago and it has got worse, not better.

[Koolicks]

Congrats on the win susan what a game, me and my father were up off our seats hoping they would win, good game :):):):)

Morning Susan, well the boys scraped home against another low ranked side, but you still get 4 points, it doesn't sound fair; if you beat a top side you should get 4 points, a mid side 3 points and a low side 2 points, after all it's not much to brag about , we beat ESSENDON, but at least you didn't lose.


Good luck to you and the boys Susan, it was an entertaining game :wave: :wave:

But that's all it is; A GAME, we don't have to become arch enemies over-it, I wish you and THE GOOD OL' NAVY BLUES, the best for the year.

[Koolicks]

For a side that came back from 48 points behind to come up and win all hats off to them, doesnt matter if it is a low or high side they are against. that is great well done to the Blues and you susan if i was you stand up and be proud mate, pocket Essendon isnt a low side anyway they are a very strong team to play against, plus it is only round three and they have won 2 and loss on.

[Michael@ton]

Nessa, it's all only fun, unless of course you have your Sheep Station on it, and therefore you're livelihood, Essendon are rank outsiders to win the premiership, but can beat any team on THEIR day, and good luck to them too, of course we all have our own favourites for varying reasons, mine is geographical.

The real important thing we have to remember is we are all friends, and will stay friends no matter who wins a game, a car-race or a Horse race for that matter, lets follow our teams with pride and blame the REFEREE if things don't go as we have planned. :D :D :D :D :D

Good win to those teams that have won so far this weekend, but I'm a bit disappointed with the Swans even in Adelaide, they had 20 kicks at goal while Adelide had 14 and still got beaten rather comprehensively, but then again we've only beaten Adalaide once in 5 years, and have still made 2 G/F's winning one and loosing the other by a point or so.:hellno3d: :hellno3d: :hellno3d:

Alas I caught neither the Footy yesterday or BB last night, I was more interested in my son's Rugby League game, which they won handsomely, 42 - 0, the rules state that as soon as a team gets 50 points in front, then the game is immediately called to a halt, a great idea, HUMILIATION is not the reason my son plays sport, it is for camerarderie, exercise and discipline, all of which were part of the game when I first started playing 50years ago. :huge:

Another quick question, why is it that whenever there is a Thread started as Football, that some of the posters automatically think of AFL, there is only one football game, in Australia it is called Soccer as in some other countries, but go to most European countries, most South African countries, Asia, South American countries and the Middle-East, and you talk of marks and they would ask you who took the penalty, just something to ponder in the minimum of Spare Time that we get. :dance: :dance: :dance:

Yes the BLUES, have a few more wins left in them, if not an AFL wife, why not try politics, I believe the Labour Party are only too willing to give people who are in the limelight for the worse reasons a chance on their team, don't even care if you can kick a ball, as long as you have been in the papers, you'll get a start on the bench anyway.

You will certainly have your work cut out with the Mighty Black & Whites on Saturday, although I wish you well, lets hope we see the game, like the Old Carlton vs Collingwood games of past years where there were 90,000 roaring fans at the Good Old MCG, what a spectacle they used to be. :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

As I have said Good Luck tomorrow, but I hope the games the winner, even when my favourite team is playing, but each to his own, I admire your persistence. :thumb: :thumb:

I have been backing the blues from the age of 10 yrs. So it has been a long time now.My other friends have given up and swap teams but I never will.

Have The BLUES won an AFL/VFL Comp in that time Rudi??

I follow Balmain and have done so since 1967, used to watch them on Black and White TV on Friday nights from the previous Sunday two years later we won a COMPETITION and it wasn't until 1988 and 1989 when I went to every HOME GAME both years, we made the Grand Final again, it's been a long wait, and we are no longer Balmain, but the TIGERS live on with the NRL Amalgamation Policy when they joined with Wstern Suburbs Magpies, we had little cash flow and had lost all our good players, then a bunch of 20 year olds with a couple of Hard Heads amongst them came out and won the last 7 or 8 games in a row (the last three, the Play-Offs by big margins), including the 2005 GRAND FINAL. :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: :hyper:

You wouldn't believe it but we beat North Queensland in the Play-offs and Grand Final, from up around Big A's Territory although not as far up as Big A, I don't think, hope. :!!!!yello :!!!!yello

Or maybe, just maybe the one after that. I figured they might win one out of three, but a true supporter follows his team thru thick or thin.
Rudi, you didn't answer my question early this morning, I think it was, how long since Carlton have won a Premiership, VFL/AFL, I thought they were a team with a great heritage. :huge: :huge: Especially when Mr Elliott was running the show !!!! :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

In NRL I have a 2nd team, as I used to play for Illawarra, with John Dorahy and Allan Mc Mahon (both touring Kangaroos) and Mum always listens to every one of the Amalgamated teams games, St George/Illawarra.

Michael it has been a very long time since they have won,but not as long as collingwood

I don't support any of the teams........ too much of a sissy game these days

Even the NRL has long lost it since the days of Wally, Mal, Stirlo and not forgetting Fatty :thumb:
