AlexRRR Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 3 hours ago, Will27 said: Good to have you back safe and sound AlexRRR. Glad you enjoyed your trip. Monday is the pre-season and rookie draft day so have another couple of days to sweat on the possible recruitment of the Big Dish. Hard to make an assessment of the draft for WC really. After the first half a dozen, seems to be a bit of a lottery. Oh safe dont know about sound......And Castro....didnt meet him, i can say without doubt or recrimations that Cuban women would make excellent AFL footballers...they grow quick and mature in a very short time....and even they dont have the widest latin hips in the Americas they know how to use them....first hand experience both on the dance floor and in private...lets say there very athletic even they built for endurance....i could just imagine a hip going out as they fly for a mark.... The draft Mr WILL was weak...well reported long before the big day that the Bombers took number one...shame about that....im just bleeding for them...Dee's who that fella was quick to put down were on the ball....spent up big last year too have a number of first round as well as low picks...... Im recommending that the broke Bombers should be relocated to Hobart..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was one of the most gifted young footy players I ever saw, with so many things going for him. It's a great shame he has ended up like this and I fear there will be no good outcome. Many years ago I worked in the Northbridge area and much of my business happened there. I had community contacts who were on the edge of the seedy side of the area and we often talked about this young player. Before Ben's problems became public, it was known in those circles that he was on a slippery slope. With his mate Gardiner, and others, he was mixing with the worst people there, reveling in the glamour of the criminal class. It was a case of too young, too famous, too much free time, and too much money to spend. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To go the road guys like this go and you dont have to be a celebrity Mr Croc the majority are missing a few screws in the head....tradie talk for mental health issues, or in some cases just simple in the head.... Many will feel for Ben but the reality is he has had a large network around him and yet he still runs off the track, the guy is missing something like Brains plus no dout mental health problem, he always takes the path of least resistance, the jails are full of guys like that... I stoped feeling sorry for him and the like a long time ago....its a shame sure, many due to chemical imbalance end up in similar situations but in the end if they dont want to be helped what can you do? Then theres the drug issues.....again the ones with weaker minds tend to do it....the drug pushers are winning the drug war, its time to make all drugs legal get it out into the open that will end the profits criminals make government can tax the profits from the losers who use them and best of all the users are out in the open...when you know who they are a program can be targeted to them to help get off the shit.....its just a rough outline but basically thats it, there is absolutely no chance of stopping guys like Ben Cousins ending up dead or worse being looked after because there a vegetable under the current system. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His celebrity status gave him an in with some of the biggest crims, and gangs of the time, and started him off with the drugs. They paraded him into restaurants and such as some sort of trophy. I did hear later that one of the biggest names in Northbridge tried to get him back on the straight and narrow without success. Other than that, I agree with most of what you said. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexRRR Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Well.......the magpie curse continues....Dawes delisted and that other guy the Brazilian poney looks like going the retiring route.... Said something about our previous recruiters....Clarke and Dawes had beds set aside for them at St Vincents as they spent there entire contracts in sick bay.... And this taken from The Roar 30th of june 2012.... Former coach Dean Bailey and recruiting manager Barry Prendergast have a lot to answer for. In pursuit of a youthful, talented list, the club cleared out some of its most respected senior players and gutted the culture of the club. Players weren’t forced to earn their spots, instead given games based on the need to educate them. Critically, these younger players had no experienced role models to teach them how to prepare and play at the elite level. The recruitment decisions made between 2007 and 2011 have been nothing short of diabolical, due both to factors outside of the club’s control, and some very poor decision-making. The club recruited mobile utility Cale Morton with pick four of the 2007 AFL draft, overlooking the explosive Cyril Rioli (Hawthorn) and Patrick Dangerfield (Adelaide), who both possess extreme pace, something the Demons seriously lack in their midfield. Morton is yet to show any real reason for being such a high draft pick, while both Rioli and Dangerfield are integral parts of their respective clubs. Morton of course is long gone....what that guy said is what i was saying....Bailey hope he's burning in hell destroyed the very fabric of the club....within 2 years 95% of all senior player was gone.... And further more Needle putting off side our best and fairest in his first year then trades Moloney the following...what a bunch of dudds....Gary Lyon can take some of the critizum for helping choose the coach....

"I turned 34 in the off-season so I'm old in footy but young in life is what I like to say," he said. "The opportunity came once I finished at North Melbourne and I thought I had more to give. "To do it over here, to see a different footy club, to meet a lot of new, different people and just those experiences as well were really appealing to the decision to say yes and I'm glad they read my name out." Only trouble Drew will face is for the ball to actually get up froward, WCE will struggle to stay in the 8 in 2017 they along with North will make way for The Saints and Dee's, Bombers and Pies could even end up higher.....

You wont need to waste time watching the Eagles or the Kangaroos as there slip sliding away thats a song too.... If your cheap like Bookman and a few of the other guys you can get coverage for most games....but in my experience using the same sites for the local Aleague every now and then the site stops mid game then ur mucking around trying to get it back or in a few cases stops dead about 10 min from full time....i dont bother with it anymore and i bought the local AFL version.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No probs mate. Pretty sure you won't get watchafl included in that package/price. Option to purchase digital AFL Live pass to access games and AFL events online, via tablet or phone Have a look at all of the clubs as prices differ. You might get a better deal from one of the newer clubs like GWS or the GC. Edit: The Suns package is $168 and GWS have 15% off the new rates for watchafl. Freo have on the of better deals at $150. Was $20 cheaper than WC but I couldn't bring myself to do it. Seems like you will have to get in quick as some of the clubs are either changing to the new pricing. Again, 365sport.tv is an option.

Live streaming and premium content is not available to our customers if they are roaming outside of Australia and New Zealand. For more information on international broadcast details please visit the following link: http://watchafl.afl.com.au. From the look of the above mentioned statement Live Pass is only for use inside Australia as it utilises Telstra. I have 30mbs wifi connection here in the village in Issan so it looks like I may have to fork out for the Pub Pass to get a pay annually subscription. Payment of monthly charges is my problem as I have no banking ties to Oz,normally I give the fees to my mate on his once a year visit and he pays it on his return to OZ. At near 80, footy is one of the few enjoyments left in life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
