perfect example. Fev doesn't deserve anything except what he takes from a negotiation. Not a single club owes him anything.

Brendan Fevola finds an ally in North Melbourne legend Wayne Carey, who says the fallen star deserves another chance at AFL level.

Sh!ts me to tears to hear commentators discussion "such and such owed the club some loyalty" when a contract is up and they want to be traded back somewhere else or leave to for a better deal. Rubbish. If the club wanted more from the player/coach then they would have negotiated a longer contract.

Or all the people saying this morning that the Hawks deserved the win last night. Again, rubbish, if they had kicked straight, or not fumbled in the last qtr, then they would have won. The game didn't owe them anything. Hawks got out of that game exactly what they put in, it just so happens the pies put in a little extra.

Saturday afternoon rant over :D


You should bring some further attention to your stance - possibly by lighting yourself on fire like a tibeten monk.

Jobe Watsom to lead polling after round 12 at $7. Good value? Judd/Murphy favourites but they may share votes among them. Jobe had en excellent start to the year but got injured as missed round 8-12:

Round 1 J. Watson 35
Round 2 J. Watson 24
Round 3 J. Watson 33
Round 4 J. Watson 30
Round 5 J. Watson 29
Round 6 J. Watson 35
Round 7 J. Watson 31

Worth $50

He'll be the leader after 7, just depends if he can hold it.

Very tempting. Thoughts on "Young Gun" market Dave? Heppell looks like value but I don't know if it is just because I am a Bomber man and didn't really pay much attention to Rockliff.

Too hard.

Wouldn't bother with first or second year players at all in any market.

You'll get good odds for him Glenn. I took the obvious Goodes/Judd Quinella at $4 which I thought was fair.
