You know that I am not "Dr Who", stop being a smart arse.

And answer the question.

I already have. We blew a golden opportunity.

No, when did I give him wraps?

 

The good Dr. W said it all. Your other half.

I've inboxed him to that effect, but he doesn't seem to accept it...

waffle-waffle-waffle - back to maths class next week for you. I'm off to play footy with my mates - you stick with the geeks. This is a football forum - not a chess forum.

Just because some people can see straight thru you - settle down and grow some balls, your a "big boy" now.

enjoy your after school kick-to-kick Doc

So Darling who has cemented a first 18 spot in a top 4 side is an unknown quantity whereas Cook who might as well be nicknamed the "ghost who walks" for all we have seen of him was the right choice and bound to come on and star? Hilarious.

At least I'd get a kick - at least I know what its like to play this game - you on the other hand should stick with P-K4 why dont you play with rpfc - and leave us alone to talk about the footy.

I don't know if you watched the Geelong Hawthorn match on Sunday. Tom Hawkins. Drafted in 2006. It's now 2012.

Cook was AA CHF. He earned the right to go at pick 12, and he's earned the right to be given some time before we start passing judgement. If 6 years after he was drafted he can manage 12 marks and 22 disposals against a likely Grand Finalist - as Hawkins did on Sunday - fine with me.

On half of these threads we have people criticising us because we let the likes of Thompson and Jolly go too soon, and the other half we have people who can't wait to shunt everyone out the door after 2 or 3 seasons if they aren't already AA.

For a player you are not "sold on" you certainly give him some superb wraps above in relation to Fork 'em's quote.

How much better should Darling get? Hasn't put a foot wrong yet in my eyes.

We blew it.

I notice you edited your contribution. Seeing you're obviously giving some consideration to what you post online, just thought I'd point out that "area's" in your tag is just a simple plural, and doesn't actually need the apostrophe.

No need to thank me.

Sorry Bing.....Have no idea what you are talking about...Have you just woken up? or maybe chugged a full can of Vanila Coke in one gulp??

If you want me to edit an apostrophe just say so...

I think we have gathered this Ron from 1 or 2 of your posts

Yep, perhaps it's time for me to cool my jets on this. I was literally frothing at the mouth after reading Niall's article this morning.

I'm too busy with my plasticine doc

Let me tell you a little footy story - you might appreciate it you might not - In my very first game of senior football I was playing on Shane Baldwin - Carlton Under 19 (brother of Jason ex Fitzroy player - Shane was better than Jason but liked a drink and the girlies - sure he wont mind me saying that) I knew Shane as a quick winger/forward that worked hard one-way. So I ended up kicking the first goal of the game - so - Shane & I spent the rest of the game "legally" going hard at the footy & one another.

But the moral of the story is - we where the best of footy mates after the game. So maybe there is hope for you & me - maybe there isn't - only time will tell. I bumped into Shane about 4-5 years ago we had a great laugh about it.

Keep "footy" punching.

I'd forgive you of anything with that Avatar.

Thou art Melbourne supporter.

Therfor thou must use correct punctuation at all times or run thy risk of pompous punctuation police displaying thy superior football knowledge by pointing out thou heinus crime to thou.

And how many names have you gone under in this Forum Jos'e??

Why should i believe you this time?

No problems - might take you up on that in my older years.

More rubbish.

You have been fascinated with me in this short flamethrowing mission you have been on - did rpfc belittle an argument of a previous incarnation of you in the past or something?

People can hold grudges on here...

Me, I can barely remember who is accusing me of what - I have a few people that say I carry water for The Administration, and a few who think I am unfairly harsh on everyone in The Administration.

Anyway, I guess the lesson is - if you write that someone isn't making sense simply by repeating the word 'waffle' three times - you look foolish.

As Macca would say, and always does say even when it isn't appropriate...

Cheers.

you would have to be an absolute moron to think we have spent 48 years 'picking the wrong blokes'

in all that time we've had Lyon, Stynes, Schwarz and Flower. I'd go a level down and add the likes of Viney, Neitz, Jako and McDonald. That's it.

what are the odds of picking 99% duds

Clearly this desert of quality is a problem with the process not the original product

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.
