tbh I don't get the point you're trying to make either

I agree, I can't see Rhino's point, plus it's factually incorrect. Davey and Martin nominated for the national draft but were overlooked. And I would have thought that Davey has cemented an AFL career.

Missed the point and nitpick. Par for the course isnt Mo?

This is pure gold. I can't believe I'm contributing post #54 on Charlie freakin' Gardiner.

I haven't read them all, but I will suggest that whether Gardiner is better than 3 or 4 or 8 current Melbourne players is not of concern to me. What is of concern is making sure Melbourne either used the first pick in the preseason draft on a player who may legitimately aid us in our premiership quest, or pass and have filled our list via the national draft. Using the pick on a guy who has been rejected by 2 clubs, is clearly not up to it and wouldn't be part of our best 22 is a complete waste of everybody's time and would be another list management calamity. Gardiner being better than players like Bartram isn't a reason put them both on the list, it's a blatant hint that neither of them should be on there.

It stopped being about Gardiner awhile ago and has been turned into another excuse for Freak and co. to malign one of our own.

I'm still asuming that it is a "no" on Gardiner though?

That in itself is pure gold pantaloons. :lol: Who would of thought?

Quite right Pantaloons, and as you say Gardiner would clearly not legitimately aid us in our premiership quest after being rejected by not 1 club, but two clubs.

Why some 'people' are even contemplating Gardiner is bizarre, given their thoughts prior to trade week, demanding more picks and upgrading of picks. I would've thought they would rather fill our list via the national draft than have Charlie "freakin" Gardiner! :wacko:

Are you in cheer squad HT??

What the Charlie Gardiner cheer squad?...No Goose. You should know that because it seems there is only two members...and you're one of them.

the freak is all over you and you can just tell by your tone HT that your only a little boy!!

........

:wacko: I hope for your sake, you can interpret this quote of yours....because I can't decipher this for the life of me! :wacko:

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
