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.

    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.

    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...

    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.

    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.

    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

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
