Really? Thought glass houses and all would have persuaded him not to comment

Meanwhile North Melbourne fans have gone berko about a young player who has nominated the Bloods as his preferred Club over being selected as a father/son by North. Good times.

Would that be young Blakey?

Ironic eh Alanis - Nick B won't play for a year and already he's a cause of so much SBM mouth-frothing, all after his old man 'Whispering Jack' scarcely scores a headline in a 300 plus game career at two clubs

hehehe... very funny...yes it is Nick Blakey...the Norf fans are cracking it big time wishing broken legs on a kid.

SBM keeps mining new depths.

Bomber wouldn't be short of a quid, would he? Why would he get into drug trafficking, FFS??

Or has he pissed (or gambled) all his earnings up the wall like a lot of his former charges?

Two ex-missi (hi Red) wouldn't help I spose

It was reported last night that the Swans specifically renewed his contract long-term so that they curried favour with the Blakeys for this purpose. What irks Norf is that originally this rule was for sons of players, not officials.

He can go to Norf or the Lions as F/S ...or he can go to Sydney as a NSW academy player ... same as Heeney and Mills were 

Sydney will have to use points/draft picks to get him if another club nominates him before they do in the draft

Dear Norf,

Re your whinge complaint,

caccus rigiditus

Regards, AFL

The whole Academy points system does somewhat mess with the integrity of the draft though. Originally it was put in place so the poorest performing clubs get first dibs.

The father/son was included as a link to nostalgia, though where a club selects has changed from its inception.

The Academies mess with this philosophy as a team playing in a GF can end up with a guy who could have gone in the first few picks. It's as if the AFL wants a foot in two camps.

LOL. The same applies to father/sons.

Is the Dane Swan video worth searching for on the Interweb? I gather not.

Souths robbed by a botched goal review 

I'm sending Gill a nasty email about this incompetence 







as soon as I stop laughing

Dear embee,
The AFL appreciates your input and you can be assured we value the views of all our stakeholders.
Please take a few minutes to answer our stakeholder survey.
Regards (fark off and die)

hehehehe at Embee and qmy.

worst and most inexcusable loss by the Bloods since being knocked off by the Filth in Round 6 last year.

Still the score review not as bad as the effup in the A-League.

We just scratched over the line tonight, but most years, Anzac Day kills us with the punishing schedule it enforces. Wish we weren't one of the participants.

And Bradley Hill could face a sanction for alleged poor behaviour on a night out.

Darcy Moore to the Bloods. McGuire will be in meltdown mode.

Scrappy defence but hawks v bloods shaping up to be a pleasant way to pass the evening.

Went to the game. Nice to see the good guys win. A kid in his third game kicked 7 snags... fantastic.

Twas truly entertaining. The refs helped with that and hard to believe it was the kids first game at the ground.

Mardi Gras I would imagine.

Aints have offered de Goey one point two mill.

That is just madness. Nice to see McGuire copping some of his own medicine.

Swans only have Buddy, Sinkers and the skipper from other Clubs. The Pies have umpteen.

dammit! opportunity missed.

Yeah. Thought you had them when you got out to two goals.
