The Eagles are travelling to Los Pollos Hermanos before the game tonight to get a 'winning edge'; must be something in the chicken.

Not that one. The guy that oversees total football operations

left vacant by Leoncelli

That's the way I read it anyway.

I really doubt that.

The position left vacant by Leoncelli, as mentioned, is a board position that Garry is standing in.

The Director of Football is usually reserved for former players and with good reason - having a non-loyal Demon in a position on the board with an ear to all facets of the club would be dangerous.

I think the position you have caught wind of would be in the FD, hopefully as head of the FD.

Get some tiger balm on our nuts, get us moving again...

Yes ... a board member regardless of type, not just of our club but any club ... must be dyed in the wool for that club.

I know this is ridiculous, but this is a rumours thread..........:....

My neanderthal Essendon supporting mates keep telling me Neeld is looking to trade Moloney and that Beamer has met with James Hird at his house about a possible move.

I just laugh at it, but they are adamant and it keeps coming up.

Oh, my favorite time of year is Autumn, for that very reason.

What are your informants saying we're getting in return?

Let me guess ... Leroy Jetta and a fourth round pick?

No details to that end.

Just that Beamer has been meeting with Hird at his house and that the clubs are talking about a trade.

No details beyond that........... probably because of their limited imagination.

I heard that Michael Hurley is moving to GWS for alot of money....

Cant reveal my source but yeah James Hird doesnt feel like he needs his best player anymore,

So guess its happening

Poor misguided attempt at humour?

It was, but i was also showing that thats the amount of credibility your friends have and how simple it is to make that crap up

I think we're all already aware of that.

Nonetheless, it was a rumour rather than just an attempt to wind me up - they are genuinely excited at the prospect.

Just sharing what I've heard... as seems to be the entire point of this thread.

Was never an attempt to wind you up Lutz, but definitely to wind your mates up, or a poor attempt at doing so

was just trying to show you how little it all meant, as you may have been taking something out of their comments

Although rumours started as soon as Scully's stopped about Hurley to GWS, i obviously no little about it

btw your mates sound alot like Essendon supporting mates i know...

I watched Tom Curran play for Wesley vs Carey the day I went to see young Jack Viney have a hit out....Wesley won by 100+pts and Curran kicked at least 8 goals....was simply massive compared to the defence....looked ok to me

Rumor from BigFooty

"Melbourne thinking about using all first round picks (including compo) to make a play for Jaeger and Dangerfield. They feel that Craig could help get the deal done."

http://www.bigfooty....=874854&page=65

Most likely bullcrap, interesting either way with Damian Barrett mentioning salary cap room.

I can really see both happening.

Dangerfield wants to come home to VIC. And is a big fan of Craig! Has stated before his future will be influenced by whether the Crows keep Craig or not. Craig has for one chosen the MFC over opposition clubs. Including Carlton. For this reason Dangerfield will be a Demon. Pick 12 & a player.

The Dee's will use both compo picks on a player like O'meara in a heart beat. We want the best! And we are out to get it done... We are no longer the club players put a line through. First class facilities, coaches, fitness staff and calling the G home is a huge draw card for players. The Melbourne FC will be world class! Both Scully compo picks & a player ready to go. Warnock, Bate, Maric, Morton etc. GWS wont want to put all there draft picks into one season. Dealing with the Dee's give's them flexibilty to draft or trade again in there 2nd year. More advantageous than GC pick 4. Dee's will make sure this deal gets done! O'meara & Viney ready to go in 2013.

I love the tone and optimism of this post, but do you think it'll really happen? Is Dangerfield that besotted with Craig? Won't he hang around to see how the new coach works out?

Pick 12 + Warnock??

    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
