Congratulations Glenn Archer on your 300th game. Probably the most gutsy player around, always hard at the ball, takes no prisoners.

Not sure if the Kangaroos game is on 7 in adelaide but I am able to watch it on seven central and with 14 minutes to go in the 1st qtr he did one of the most courageous spoils at half back you'll ever see.
This resulted in the ball going straight up fwd and Petrie taking a top grab.
Petrie kicked 6 in the 1st qtr as well.

Mate I know you are biased (I would be too if I stayed a North supporter after June 30 1979 (when the great man came back)) but M Wilson, D Kirk, and J Brown are also probably the gutsiest players going around too. I admit though those players are no less tough/gutsy than he is...

Lets see if they play 300 games....agree with Brown, however Im not sure Kirk and Wilson throw themselves into marking contests as much as Arch has over the years

Onto the game, can the Roos win a game by a big margin?

Last time we won by more than 42 points was 24th July 2004, 3 bloody years!!!....kill em off Roos

The 300 games bit is a good point, bottom line he is as tough as they come

And to think carlton rejected archer saying he was too small and bulky.

no problem with their intensity, however especially with Kirk I can hardly remember him flying blindly into marking contests, his domain is when the ball is in the pack and needs to be won
