Would give the Suns pick 2&3 possibly for Lukosius and Rankine?

If he doesn't suit up for collingwood next year I'll eat my hat.


Hope you're not wearing a sombrero

Wouldnt matter if I was wearing a crash helmet.
Like Dangerfield and even way back to Buckley's day he's just been biding his time till he became a free agent.

Do you get counted twice if you buy 2 three game memberships, its a farce


Well that would be just silly as it would be around the same price as an 11 gamer. What about membership's for those who live interstate are they farcical, I know Hawthorn offer them and they aren't 11 gamers. I know my Dad has a Geelong membership but doesn't attend games outside of SA, is he any less of a supporter than the bloke who lives down the road and attends every game at Geelong, I think not. The figures you want are just to inflate the egos of the big Victorian Clubs and their supporters and to belittle the rest of us.

There would be heaps that buy multiple 3 game memberships, especially at your povo club where the dole cheque only stretches far enough for 3. Your dad can still call himself a member if he wishes but lets see the figures on proper memberships. The figures i want to see would bring the victorian clubs numbers right down and push the non victorian teams to the top of the list

Sorry i thought i was in an AFL thread talking about stereotypes of AFL clubs members, you want to talk about the dempgraphic of SANFL clubs supporters ill happily engage in the appropriate threads. I really hope Norwood dont do anything to piss Josh Glenn off, whats that saying, you can take the boy out of Lizbeff but you cant take the Lizbeff out the boy

Anyone else reckon Tom Lynch (GC) is over rated? and there is a chance he will be a flop at his new club?

He's more over rated than Cyril Rioli so that's saying something.

Nope. The only question mark is his knee injury.
He'll be a gun in Victoria. In black and white.

Nope, he's a top shelf key forward playing in a shit side with no heart that nobody cares about. He'll be a win for whoever gets him.

I can stereotype whoever I want, whenever I want.

Clearly Josh Glenn needed to be away from the bad influences in bogansville and be at a place with class.

If his knee is a problem then of course he'll be a top but with a half decent tea around him who knows how could he could be.

Totally agree, hope isnt the one that you actually land haha

I think it all depends on what rule changes are introduced, if there is a place for the stay at home forward one on one again he will be a great pick up. In todays rules, not so much. Not sure the key forwards should be paid so much, the really good small forwards are key but you dont have to pay for them.

Gold Coast wasn't far enough away from the Beff?

I'll be surprised if Glenn is at Norwood by the end of 2019.

He is very inconsistent but not sure if that is him or because of the team he played for
