    Re: Jason Akermanis - How to bring down Collingwood

    Maybe it's reverse psychology - he thinks if he puts this cunning plan in the paper, Rocket will be guaranteed to do the opposite.

    Mind you, Rocket is probably guaranteed to do the opposite anyway.

    Re: Jason Akermanis - How to bring down Collingwood

    I actually quite like this idea. We have been great with getting the contested ball for most of the season so I couldn't see why it wouldn't work. Collingwood play off their half back flank so we really need to shut down their runners.

    If Morris was playing I would be playing Lake up forward.

    He would own Maxwell.

    Aker: "Right. I can fix this for now with a fluffy article, and just before the book is about to launch I'll make some comment on the radio about one of my ex team mates being a drug addicted homo"

    Book Publisher: "Perfect, but does it have to be on MTR? No one listens to that shit hole station"
    This.

    Aker has written the obligatory fluff piece because he has spent the best part of 6 weeks writing hate-fueled bile, and his reputation out in the football world has suffered accordingly. He needs to counteract the notion that he is a bitter ex footballer who nobody takes seriously any more, hence the appearance of said feel-good piece.

    The hate-fueled bile will resurface very soon, about a day before his book is released. Aker thinks we must have all recently arrived in one of those boats that Tony Abbott wants to stop.

    Maybe not this year, but 2011 we should see Hoops, Patrick "Petal" Rose and hopefully Marcovich elevated to the senior list.

    And if you disagree.
    Get to a Willy game and see how good they are, and the potential that they can give.

    Markovic is already on the main list.

    Markovic is on the senior list already, he just won't be much longer.
