Not quite true --- we wore the red and blue in the win against Richmond. However, the other three have all come in the white abomination ... :blink:

FWIW I thought it was good step to wear the red and blue against the dogs, rather than the white that we sometimes have in the past. However, if I had known the white would make us win ... :)

I think you know I am being very light heart on this subject.

I don't want to play in anything but the traditional Red and Blue ( ie Red not Maroon, Pink or Orange )

I guess I am getting worn down but I actually don't mind the current away jumper.

All in good fun, OD. I will say that the current design is growing on me, and there a lot of worse ones out there. However, the predominant white does tend to stick in my (magpie-hating) craw ... :)

I did not see it but heard similiar.

Can you expand Mr. Leg Sir?

He said Chip had one very good skill, which is judging the flight of the ball in the air and getting to the right spot to mark or spoil. However, he said he was an awful decision-maker and an awful kick of the footy, with plenty of evidence from Sunday's game on offer. I thought he was balanced, in that he said the elite-level skill that Chip has is worth something, but probably not the figures being talked about in the media, and that anyone wanting him would need to "be aware" of his limitations.

Not sure why but I am finding it hard to attached comments to the original at present.

However R and B I think his comments sound fairly accurate.

I am all for keeping JF but not at any price.

I have confidence in this management team to make the right decision.

I would prefer he stays but we now live in the brave new world of free agency so it is more than likely he will go.

If he does I bear him no ill will he has IMO given his best to the MFC during a very poor period in our history.

Garry Lyon was pretty savage on Chip, on FC on monday night.

As was I in that last few minutes v Bulldogs.

While on Liam Jones, Chip did well, keeping him kickless. However he was also on Bontempelli when he kicked the 2 matchwinners. In the first he let him run free. In the second he let a first year player strip him of the ball twice, then went to ground and stayed there while the winning goal was kicked. It was nothing less than a pathetic effort from an experienced big bodied defender.

He unfortunately turns the ball over often. He is a poor user of the ball and finds it hard to give off quick accurate passes.

Chip now gives off the appearance that he is playing out time with us and actually couldn't give a stuff about the result. I have seen him jog after an opponent countless times this year.

I just updated this laptop to windows 8.1 yesterday and now it will not let quote to anyone's comment.

Any idea how to fix this problem?

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
