    Not really.

    You can blame the Dons lack of forward structure but it's amazing how badly Essendon are getting smashed in 50/50 contested ball situations. The Pies players are significantly stronger and more desperate.

    Is Walsh underrated?

    He's rated pretty accurately for mine. A great bowler, but not in the alltime very elite greats bracket like his contemporaries Marshall and Ambrose, or a McGrath, Hadlee, Lillee etc etc. 500+ wickets at <25 is a difficult record to argue for him being anything than a true great nonetheless.

    So Casson - at what stage can I stop considering myself premature in saying that the Demons are a much improved side that are going to give some much more highly fancied contenders a big fright? :p

    IPL Corruption and Match-Fixing Investigations

    Probe into the IPL and allegations of wrongdoing Can we have a separate thread to discuss the progress of the current issue of the controversy regarding the new franchises and the probe into the IPL. I assume it's being discussed in the IPL 2010 thread, but really, that's a match thread, and...

    Random country draft

    Will stick up the poll in a couple of hours. Will take the teams as finalised at sixty minutes after I make this post, so you have an hour left if you want to change anything.

    Random country draft

    Let's put a deadline on further swaps then - sometime tomorrow morning (roughly 24hrz from now) will consider teams to be finalized and put up a poll. If I can get VC4 to work again, might sim some matches as well.

    Because those clubs are have-nots. Constant bleating isn't going to fix that. :ph34r:

    Random country draft

    I'm not fussed, nor a dictator in this respect, I'm happy for majority opinion to prevail here. I vote for swap whatever you can persuade someone to sign up to.

    **Official** NRL 2010 thread

    @ Craigos - They weren't stripped of any flags or points, just a big fine and draft penalties. Should have thrown the ****s out of the comp. That was the period when their corrupt racketeering president (not Pratt, the guy a couple before him was also paying rape victims off not to press...

    So is India safe to tour or is it just a media beat-up?

    After you then. Seriously, saying just go ahead and take the risk is much easier from the safety of your keyboard. Many of these people have children they support and want to see grow up. Besides, I'd say the small "defeat" of rescheduling/rearranging your life is a preferable option to...

    Queen's Birthday's gone isn't it? edit: no, it's still on. Just one of those funny things in the fixture now where we play the same team twice within 10 weeks.

    A.F.L Thread

    I don't think we're better than last year at the moment. Essendon are much worse IMO. But whether its that we choke, which seems unlikely given we played well in a stack of other big games, or that Essendon have tended to play above themselves against us on Anzac Day, I'm thinking the Dons...

    Alphabet teams

    Nice work on the teams, looking good. Miandad for Peter May or Phil Mead IMO, and Vaas into the U/V team. Funny how the V team only has leftie medium-fasts and spinners.

    A.F.L Thread

    Reckon you probably will - it's shaping as your pseudo-Grand Final for the year. Always seems that you pricks knock us off on Anzac Day, no matter the overall form of the two teams. Still, this year, I'll say that making the 8 > winning Anzac Day. And heap **** on you if we win.

    IPL ball

    Was hoping this was going to be a proper tux and open bar, arriving in a limo, passing out at the end of the night, type Ball, to be held at the conclusion of the tourney. Can't help but think we've missed the chance for some fantastic "KP caught flagrante delicto under table with Katrina...
