Redleg 42,161 Posted March 22, 2013 Author Posted March 22, 2013 All of what you say is probably true Redleg. I will be delight if it improves matters. But where it really counts is winning games. When that happens I will believe. I hear you brother. Amen. 1 Quote

I am not in the doldrums Bbo Just have a low opinion of our team at present. That may well change around 4.30 pm on March 31st. Just sipping a single malt as I type. The world with the exception of the MFC is wonderful Quote

Redleg 42,161 Posted March 24, 2013 Author Posted March 24, 2013 I think Viney is a certainty this week and I would play Clark. He looked ok and can play out of the goal square. My daughter saw Dawes today and he thought he would be OK to play as well. Trenners needs more game time at Casey and probably another hitout for Blease as well. Quote
Whispering_Jack 31,368 Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 I think Viney is a certainty this week and I would play Clark. He looked ok and can play out of the goal square. My daughter saw Dawes today and he thought he would be OK to play as well. Trenners needs more game time at Casey and probably another hitout for Blease as well. I commented elsewhere that it would be a risky strategy if we play too many players who lack match practice. I doubt we can go in with both Clark & Dawes after their limited time on the ground in match practice. Agree on ruling a line through Sam Blease's name and you can add JT to the outs as well. Quote

If they are worried about both, I think they will play Clark before Dawes. He is athletic and harder to stop than Dawes. Quote

We are as one there Redleg. I also think he is way better as a player than Dawes. It is going to be interesting to see if Dawes was a good buy. I used to think he was a good position player in a good team not sure he has that around him at the MFC The jury is out for me. Quote

old dee 24,083 Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 March 2013 has not been one of my better months leaving aside the football. I bought an Asus Android tablet computer, it ran for 20 minutes and expired. No problem got my money back and ventured to the Apple shop. My brother was giving Apple a big wrap ( I should have known better he is a Lions Supporter ) Well 9 days and 3 hours on the phone to Optus, a 1 hour visit to the Apple shop and 2 hours on the phone to Apple it has been returned as it would not do most function at a satisfactory level and some not at all. Thank God for the trusty Dell and Microsoft. Our first game is on the last day of March thank god the MFC has nothing to do with computers or I would be really worried. Quote

Your lucky to have that much technology option We were recently the centre of more lightning strikes and even my steam powered system was put out of action. Telstra Repair date was given by my supplier as 26 April so I was not a happy camper. I rang to say as I had no internet facility I couldnt arrange payment of my Telstra telephone account. Miraculously the fault was fixed by 5.00 that night ensuring access to Demonland. My supplier (not Telstra) was equally astounded. We do have the occasional victory over the grander forces so dont despair Quote

In the last year I have bought a PVR, TV, and two tablet computers. All of which either expired in short order after purchase or would not work properly. Modern technology is wonderful when working but a giant pain when it does not. These guys make the MFC look like the model of good operation. 1 Quote

I would just like an even break when I enter the electronics world. a 100% failure rate is surely not the average.
