Update on Jason Taylor?

Featured Replies

Posted

There hasn't been much said about Jason Taylor's impending move to MFC since Collingwood got upset about poaching their people back in February this year. It is my understanding that he will leave the Pies after the national draft to join us as the National Recruiting Manager.

I assume that a contract has been signed and he is definitely coming. Does anyone have anymore news on this front?

 

Does anyone else believe he has given us a few tips under the table for this upcoming draft seeing as how important this year of picking up guns is for us?

 

Over the last ten years we have been extremely poor in player selection hence our current position on the bottom.

This year I propose we try the "names in a hat" method until JT comes on board.

It is difficult to believe we could do worse.

Well I hope!


He'll join us after the draft

Suck on that one eddie! :)

Better still, use the names in the hat to chose a Phantom Draft option from Bigfooty! thats a lot more professional ;)

.... although we could get screwed if there is a typo :(

Suck on that one eddie! :)

Eddie?

The guy who held Taylor to his contract and left us in the uneviable position of moving Todd Viney down and sideways to be Head Recruiter for a year?

Yeah, we really showed him...

Funny I had the same thought rpfc

Still I think we have it covered with the "names in a hat" technique

I really hope this post is 'tongue in cheek', but just in case it's not, does 'high performance with high integrity' ring any bells?

I sincerely hope he hasn't given any 'tips' and I sincerely hope no one from the MFC has asked him.

Eddie Maguire was having a little sook about people being taken from collingwood! he needs to get over it and realise that collingwood is not immune to these things

No. He's a true professional and will see out his contract with the Pies in that manner before joining us when he becomes available.

Yeah that sounds good in practice.

If he does give us a few tips under the table, then he not the sort of person we would want put in charge of our recruitment. That would be incredibly unprofessional and a breach of his current contract. Would you trust him not to do the same to us in due course?

No, Taylor is better than that and will join us when his contract expires or before if released from the Pies earlier.

Poor Eddie !! pawwwwwwwwwwwwww Edddddddyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy !!!!!!

altogether now.... Poor Eddie !!! :)

I really hope so.

I really hope so.

I must fess...I kinda hope he's winked and nudged at least :)

I just hope he is the best at it.

And that includes not working for us at all until his contract begins.

We have already been burnt enough with recruiting.

thats right ...stiff upper lip stuff ...rahh rahh !! etc.

I only want whats good for us.. F*#k the rest..I really dont give a damn after all this time.

Other clubs play the game to suit and win, they also win premierships... Weve beena dumbclub, fessing up to thing s when is wasnt required and punished probaly more for stupidity than breaching any rules really.

Who gives a flying if we get something , honestly. Were Demons , therefore surely faustian rules apply.

There is so much scullduggery in this business, in this sport only a naive idiot plays totally by the rules, especially as these same said rules often screw us.

The rules arent kosher, why abide by them religiously ? ( association intended )


So what's so good about this guy?

So what's so good about this guy?

in simple terms.. what has Collingwood got we havent

also where are they, where are we.

Often it comes down to cattle.

Moo !!

I have an uneasy feeling about heading into such a big draft for the club with the recruiting setup as it is currently. They really can't afford to fudge this year up with such a strong draft hand.

Hopefully it is not one of those things we look back on and say how the hell did this happen. Obviously they can't do worse than CC and BP, but they must do a hell of a lot better.

who's talking AFL Rules here?

I am talking Business Rules.

"Loose Lips Sink Ships" is a beauty, says it all. We must play hard ball & give nothing away.

So what's so good about this guy?

He's not Barry Prendegast or Craig Cameron.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
