18:3:any number

That seems a long way off bb.

Not sure I can make it!

[old dee 23,871]

Anyone heard any news on dc?

Have my fingers crossed.

[beelzebub 23,382]

The "any number" was simply a reference to the the mount of rumours circling a coaching appointment. But I suppose it could reference any number of things !!

[old dee 23,871]

You know we have a game on Sunday does anyone care?

For the seventh year in a row August's only attraction is who is the coach and what draft picks will we get.

Pretty much over this crap.

OD...not overly fussed about the rest of the season. Think they were my thoughts after about round 2 actually !!

First time in a long time, in the aftermath of a game, that I've we've been well coached strategically. And what McKenzie has been doing languishing at Casey and playing as a defensive wingman, for god's sake, is anyone's guess.

Not sure about the well coached strategically. Certainly an improvement and some flexibility but watts in defence in last quarter when suns kicked around him and we needed someone to finish in the front end was an obvious fail.

On the other hand the treatment on Ablett rotations and constant niggling by all players was a master coaching tactic.

At least and at last some positive signs

Could be an interesting night Redleg

Asking constantly while all the time we get worse on the field might be starting to wear a little thin with people who have given a lot in the past.

Perhaps the new President announced tonight?

Always wanted to go to Liverpool but on the two occasions I was in England could never convince my wife to visit.

May be I been under my lilly pad for too long but surely there been some good players who have been shafted by the Club lately?

My suggestions would be B Green, Robbo, J MacDonald, A Yze, C Bruce, J Rivers, B McLean, B Molony to name a few.

It really depends on how you define "shafted". All players reach a time when they have to move or be moved on. James McDonald had reached that stage a few years ago at the age of 33. Problem was the situation was badly handled by the coach and the football department. Perhaps it was this that ultimately sowed the seeds of discontent that came to a head with 186.

Robbo spoke at last night's Foundation Dinner and while he conceded he was upset when told it was the end for him, he recognised that the time had come.

I don't think many of the above names were really "shafted" but some, like Moloney, played a part in their demise.
