Awesome header picture for the thread, Mr T.A very important game... I'm not confident tonight but you never know, all players need to be on, Tiges by 4pts (oh my heart!)
Grrr... I still have nightmares about that bloke. At least it was Big Kerry and not Murdoch who took him to the cleaners.We should've relocated to Queensland all those years ago when Bondy wanted us to
And he dropped that sitter early. Because he's rusty. To be expected. But what a difference he makes with his fierceness around the contests.Cotchin’s kicking has been ordinary.
AFL must be one of the very few sports in the world that is played on different sized fields. Cricket too I guess since they use the same ovals, but ropes have minimised that to some extentJust for interest sakes: MCG (160 x 141), Metricon (160 x 134), Gabba (156 x 138 ). [Adelaide Oval - (167 x 123), The Cattery (170 x 115)]

What are we up to in Queensland - must be 14+ straight??
Kane Cornes will be whinging about how unfair it is that we play so many in Qld!
He'll probably lead a campaign to have the ground wings brought in.

Probably the opposite. Soccer, Gaelic Football, both Rugby codes, baseball all use varying size fields.AFL must be one of the very few sports in the world that is played on different sized fields. Cricket too I guess since they use the same ovals, but ropes have minimised that to some extent
