Is that all. I'm pleased to see you have remained realistic with your expectations Mark. :wink:

Actually, according to non tank theory, we were so bad this year that we would have finished last anyways. Didn't need to tank.

Watch out for arsonists BM.
Thats the biggest hedge I've seen associated with a bet. :wink:

very good news... but i will only be happy when Murphs signs on the dotted line..

Jeez BM, isn't that the sort of sarcastic agenda-pushing comment that Synbad gets hung for on a daily basis?

Not happy with Murphy and pick 4? :shock:

Yeah BM has an itch that cant get scratched.... :lol:

The Tyrant · **Posted:** Sat Sep 10, 2005 8:57 am

Murphy should get number 3

Save number 5 for Sam Sheldon

'Go Home-Stay Home' factor strikes again

Ooh! Poor Brisbane Bears (sorry I mean Lions). I feel sorry for them. They only won three premierships from 2001-2003.

The ominous â€˜Go Home-Stay Homeâ€™ factor that constantly hovers over the northern clubs struck again last night when exciting young Victorian Marc Murphy opted against joining the AAPT Brisbane Lions under the father-son rule.

....

Ever since Nathan Buckley defected to Collingwood at the end of 1993, Brisbane-based but interstate-raised players have been regularly targeted by rival clubs.

Yep because Nathan Buckley, a South Australian, was really suffering from the go home factor when he went from Queensland to Victoria :garthp:

What a bunch of whinging tools.

I wonder if Vossy still thinks Marc is 'such a great kid'.

:-D

Synbad gets into trouble because of his persistant personal denigration of other posters, not because of his opinions, some of which I agree with.

Quite happy with our picks, just hate the fact that we need them

Fair cop.

The AFL recognised this with the introduction of a Locality Allowance in 2000 aimed at giving the Lions the opportunity to spend a fraction more in retaining non-Queenslanders...

Fraction!? :shock:
