How do we feel about this now?

Purple Haze in 2013?

Why will Arsenal make a real push?

New manager, same old Manchester United

Agreed.

Chelsea deal a win for both Schwarzer and Socceroos

Like the idea of the article, but it’s way too soon.

Plenty of money to be spent yet.

A new, more even Premier League

One other thing is David Swallow stagnating to the point where he isn’t even starting in midfield.

Other clubs will be quick to swoop if this continues because he is QUALITY.

Suns vs GWS: how the new boys stack up

Thanks for that.

Apologies for the wrong information, especially Scott instead of Brett Thornton. I knew that too which is annoying.

Enjoy the article ladies and gents.

Batting coming together under Boof, now for the bowlers

STEVEN FINN…..

Chris Rogers is getting ridiculously overrated at the moment. Will be lucky to average 30 for the series.

Ashes players ranked from 1 to 22

Fantastic article Glenn, Agree on all points.

Too many “ifs” though which is why they aren’t a realistic chance.

Top order HAS to click.

Right now it’s Cook, Trott, KP, Bell and Trott vs Clarke in terms of established batsmen.

They must also attack and defend at the right moments. Anderson, Broad, Swann and Finn all have history of going into their shell when under attack, but choosing the right moment is the key.

2 sleeps to go!

Australia can regain the Ashes if ...

Fair call. I’ll admit I got that wrong.

Is that their only win at Lords in recent times? That was my point basically that they have barely won there.

Captain Cook vs Captain Clarke: who will win out?

Wasn’t great, but plenty of guns to return.

Still confident they’ll make the GF.

Purple Haze in 2013?

Didn’t realise there was set criteria for an “article”.

Perhaps my other 8 will keep you happy?

Captain Cook vs Captain Clarke: who will win out?

Thanks.

Mark “Choco” Williams is one name that I missed. Fantastic record at Port and doing great thing down at Tigerland at the moment too.

JK Snr is in the mentions list mate, perhaps should be on the main list.

The greatest VFL/AFL coaches of all time

It’s all about timing and a bit of luck too I guess John.

The greatest VFL/AFL coaches of all time

Also, SANFL coaches such as ones from Port Adelaide during their ridiculous success and ones from the WAFL like Haydn Bunton Jnr and John Todd deserve praise but the VFL/AFL was and is the pinnacle of Australian Football.

The greatest VFL/AFL coaches of all time

Could perhaps swap John Kennedy Snr with Roos, but it’s hard as Roos is in my more recent memory.

Robert Walls was close but a few things he did puts me off adding him to the list.

The greatest VFL/AFL coaches of all time

You break the rules, you face the consequences. Different rules to previous yes and whether they are too strict is debatable but Warner should respect the baggy green more than a pint of beer.

Hoping he can come back better though. Freakish player and that innings against India at the WACA was one of the best I’ve seen.

Have Warner's and Australia's Ashes hopes gone Walkabout?

$500 million for the Cricket, $1 billion for the footy.

Interesting.

Why is Brisbane the most likely Candidate to miss our in 2014/15 Glenn? You have some inside knowledge or just a guess? The Gabba traditionally kicks off every tour not sure if they’d change that.

CA's new broadcast deal moves us closer to day-night Tests

David Warner is a dyslexic wombat. Beats Root and leaves.

Have Warner's and Australia's Ashes hopes gone Walkabout?

Hindsight is of course a wonderful thing, and thinking over it perhaps the article was slightly over the top. This business is cut throat and for a successful side and in the nature and cut throat reality of today’s top level sport these issues must be raised.

Worsfold has been doubted before and proved wrong to an extent, so Eagles fans should trust him again.

My word the pressure is on however in this second half of the season.

My mid-game questions for John Worsfold

0, 2, 0, 0 and 9 in his last 5 innings.

In bad form on and off the field.

Top 4 at the moment for Trent Bridge.

Rogers
Cowan
Khawaja
Clarke

David Warner stood down after attacking England player

Top 2 is a huge chance with this run home.

Lions (PS)
North (PS)
Geelong (Skilled)
Saints (PS)
Eagles (PS)
Tigers (MCG)
Crows (PS)
Carlton (Etihad)
Giants (PS)
Melb (MCG)
Port (PS)
Saints (Etihad)

Milne has a great record but not elite for me due to his form in big games.

Purple Haze in 2013?

Add Charlie Dixon to the list too.

Meet the AFL’s next generation of gun forwards

Writing off the Pies with their run home at the MCG and Beams to return seems brave, but in reality they are way off.

You never know though.

Maybe even the Eagles could get it together after the Bye. Fantastic list and if they click could take games off the big sides.

History has to be broken though as you say.
