I'd like to ravish a gorgeous young ^^ Dees supporter (aged between approx 20-30). Not so sure how many clubs are ravished by injuries though :lol: . I'm not being a language Nazi, just thought that one was funny.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: .... beatifull. :lol: :lol: :lol:

 
We don't need to wish about winning 5-6 games, because we won't. 2-3 is realistic. I can see us beating Freo, Essendon and maybe Adelaide at the G.

Not sure what you had for breakfast this morning.....

Not a hope in hell of beating Adelaide at the G..... Unless of course they play 18 under 18's..... Who would probably still be too fast for us.... :P

I reckon we'll win the next 3 and be in the 8 in 3 weeks time. Then we've got Geelong. Then we'll find out where we're really at.

;)

Lol. Love it.

:lol:

Anyone with half a brain has accepted that a.) we won't win more than four games this year and b.) there is no way in hell we want to.

We absolutely must ensure we get picks 1&2 in this draft.


We are in the early stages of what I hope will be a comprehensive rebuild.

We were crap last year and we quite rightly didn't recruit any stop gap hole plugging senior players so we are relying on the natural development of our young talent. That takes time. Add a few high draft picks from this years draft and our stockpile of talent will be the best we've had in years. Yes we've got to develop them and retain them but at least we have them. And we'll have alot more stokced up than most of our rivals.

We are not winning games but there are positives. Think defensive talls. Warnock is 25, 192 cms and 95kg. Composed, strong, does his job with a minimum of fuss. Martin is 22, 200cm and 102kg. Tall, gorilla strong, quick, good instincts, thumping spoil and marking improving. Frawley is 20, 192cm and 92kg. finally seems comfortable at AFL level. Can play on talls and mediums. Needs to keep improving kicking. Garland is almost 21, 189cms and 87kg. Athletic, positons well, could play in midfield. And then there is Jared Rivers at 24, 190cm and 90kg. Fingers crossed. Reads the play superbly. A quarter back who gets his own ball because of that. Marks well, spoils well, supports his team mates.

The Hawks'd kill for that group of defensive talls.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
