    Sam is annoying to be honest and about as insightful as any bloke down at the pub.

    You see the good thing about this place is that the various contributors source the best quality information and consolidate it here, free of charge. It's literally the best.

    Listening to that made me feel physically ill. So by that logic it would be OK for to front up to Gerard, knock him over, jump on top of him, start clawing at his eyes and then grab a handful of hair and bash his forehead on the ground? After all it's just me being me, I've always liked a fight and I don't see why I should have to be the one that has to subvert my natural desire to consolidate Whately's head with a bit of footpath.

    Hear, *!*!*!*!ing, hear! It won't be closing down while I have any say in it.

    Kelvin. *!*!*!*!ing. Templeton. Put him in the HOF this year and then elevate him to legend status next year. If he had played his footy at any other club (I know he payed with Melbourne but he hobbled on one leg most of his time there) he would (rightfully) be considered a super star and the best player of his era. He was certainly the first Coleman/Brownlow medalist combination ( and only Lockett has done it since and he's in the HOF)

    I do like Mark but there is a huge difference between 'telling it as it is' and just saying the first thing that comes in your head. Maclure just tends to say the first thing that comes into his head without really filtering it through the prism in his brain before saying it but it's always entertaining and informative.

    There's also a huge difference between telling things how you see them versus telling things how they are! This is what really got to me about Aker supporters who claimed he told things as they were.

    Anyway, it is going to be great to see Schache and the other two gel if and when they're all able to get on the park together!

    We will see some glimpses this weekend with Bruce set to play and Lew Young may also go down there.

    I don't mind our club or players being criticised, it's absolutely fair game. But based on facts, FFS please... I've had a gut full of ignorant BS in the media landscape where good footy journalism used to be. As you say, these 'professionals' in the media and in TV commentary are ignorant and some cases sprout plainly dumb things and their bosses/producers don't seem to care that they're incompetent. So since there's no standards and there's no need to do basic journalistic things to a competent level.

    That GVGjr is why we can never ever close down woof. We can debate different angles, but for the most part we use facts and insight to elevate conversations about our footy club.
    I'd like to think this is true but the participation numbers from some the members suggests we have a very limited shelf life.

    That may be the nature of the beast being that it's related to a seasonal game. Things get a little quite in the off season.
    I'd be curious if we could have some mid year stats on posts over the last few years.

    The vBulletin software has a lots of stats so I can share but the problem is that we aren't attracting enough active new members
