Just saw tim Watson grinning like the cat that got the cream, saying Bucks has real worries with our "very tough"draw . Really ?? Aside from playing the piss and poo, a mob we haven't beaten in ages, its not a really bad draw, IMHO. Welfare dogs and Swannies only once, and our record v the Giants is very good, I don't think they have ever beaten us ? No problems for us here, give us a good run with injuries, and we can string a lot of wins on end, hopefully.

We should nickname Jezza: The Surgeon. Or Sweeney Todd.

Not comercially great for the club. But that doesn't matter too much since we make squillions anyway.
I prefer day games. Although they clash with my girls netball games.
It's not a hard draw. Not an easy one either. We don't play any of the easybeats twice. None. Our easiest double up are the Bombers and they'll be stronger next year. We also don't play the predicted top notch twice either. Dogs, Swans, GWS (maybe Crows). I'm not sure how good the Cats or Hawks will be, but I'll dangerously predict a decline.
It is what it is. We just need to play good footy each week and improve. I'm sick of seeing us playing ordinary footy. |

The last 2 seasons North and then hawthorn got "dead spots" when it came to showing it on FTA on Australia plus in the asia pacific. It looks like we have copped it this year.. Could be up to 10 games we miss as Thursday and Monday are not shown. And the middle game on Sunday. ANZAC day is the exception.
Hawthorn was not shown the last 9 weeks last year. This market includes China so all the rhetoric from Dill is BS but at least he gets a first class seat to China to watch the Port game.

Maybe they want to play it on Good Friday at night? |

Disappointed the AFL have weakened and are playing Good Friday footy - its putting business over integrity. That's one Friday game I won't be watching.

Having our 125th Anniversary game not on the day we asked for AND only on Foxtel is about the biggest SWIPE the AFL can give Collingwood as far as the draw is concerned. Not content with shifting us at the last minute from Homebush or wherever to the SCG in round one this year they are taking us for granted and daring us to complain. Too many #$#$ Carlton connections running the show to be healthy. #$#@$@#

Jesus might not have watched it due to a scheduling conflict, but his disciples would have got around the box to take their minds off what had happened that day.
And with all due respect, [I was fairly into this kind of thing at one point in my life], I'm just glad its not the Pies playing on that day, I've seen them crucified enough without the umpires taking the p!zz on that day!
