Holy #%#**$#

All praise Dee-luded... the whole club is reading and waiting... ask the oracle

Whay are you talking about, i'm not a person that does things out of praise seeking, quite the opposite. I only come on here to talk to people & share ideas. And to do the things I believe in.

But I do like appreciation, like anyone.

If thats how it seems, then I'm sorry I've given the wrong impression. I am actually yhe type that will readily go out on a limb, to do the right thing, or to do that which I believe in. So if you think I'm praise chasing, your wrong.

I think I get the feeling that this difference is that I believe the game is totally about the people. And maybe many of you guys think the game is about the players.

Wrong, wrong and wrong again. Sport is about winning and you don't win listening to deluded supporters on internet forums. Give it up it's getting boring.

Sports not about winning, its a social interaction of combatants, who have a need to compete. The winning & losing is a thing bread of maintaining the interest.

Winning at all costs without the moral code, is something that has developed since the 1970's.

So let me get this straight sport is not about winning but it is since the 70's?

By the way when I said sport I was talking professional sport, focusing on AFL.

By the other way, you sir are an idiot.

I just hope David Hale is a band aid to cover up a massive crack. Ben Holland was bought into the club in the same way. Wallis did it with the Tigers as well. After the football department have been so focused on teh goal of building a well rounded team I find it a funny decision. fair enough if we were in teh top six but fact is we are in teh bottom six.

We have 2 holes on our list. A supporting ruckmen to Jamar and a big bodied forward. Which of these do you think Hale covers?

Hale is in all likelihood a two year bandaid (intentionally).

There also weren't any other alternative bandaids hanging off the tree

Could someone please direct me to the topic where I might find some information regarding progress of the David Hale trade wheeling and dealing?

I... I don't even know what to say about this thread anymore. So here is a picture instead.

Just checking...are you in any way an employee of the MFC who has been sent to gauge opinion on the David Hale move? If so, mass consensus is divided about 50/50, but it's still a mass consensus either way. If so, We thank you for your time in listening to what we want, as we are certainly more qualified than those paid to make the tough decisions.

801 posts on this pathetic topic.Hale will be going to Hawks or staying at North.We are keeping pick 12,end of story!!!

Brad Scott would be rolling around on the ground Pi$$ing himself if he got Pick 12 for 27 y.o. (start of next season) washed up Hale.

Pick 12 is a 12 year player like Gysberts,not a hack like Hale who'll be lucky to play 3 more years!

Is pick 11 an 11 year player like someone who got picked at 11 also? Just wondering..

One can only hope so.

This thread reminds me of that Simpsons episode where Lisa is explaining to Homer why a rock cannot keep Tigers away even though there were no Tigers in the rock's vicinity.

Deeluded thinks he's the rock!

I love Melbourne supporters...

Everyone keeps going on about pick 12 going to North for Hale but we are not offering pick 12, We are offering pick 32which I personally think is a good deal. Does the change of pick change any ones mind about the value of this trade????

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
