Let's lighten the mood

[La Dee-vina Comedia 17,077]

There are lots of threads about tanking and all taking a serious look at a very serious issue. But I think we should also have a thread which allows a humorous take on the issues. if I'm wrong, feel free to delete this post.

The idea of this thread is not to debate the serious issues but just look at it with a wry smile. In other words, don't use this thread to argue whether the tanking existed or it didn't. Or whether Caroline Wilson has a grudge or she doesn't. There are plenty of other places to post those views.

So, to get things started, I've got a proposal which the MFC could put to the AFL as an appropriate punishment. Let's accept a similar punishment as handed out to Melbourne Storm for their salary cap breaches and have all our premiership points for 2009 and 2010 taken away. And why not go one step further and offer up all our premiership points for 2011 and 2012 as well. Then we can ask the AFL for a priority pick in this year's draft on the basis that we haven't won a game for four years and need the help that the priority pick was first designed for.

with 32.5 wins from the last 6 years (out of 132 games)

id say we should get another pick anyway.

[La Dee-vina Comedia 17,077]

Now you're talking. We should go on the attack and write to AFL this week formally requesting a priority pick in this year's draft because we've been so bad for so long.

I saw a story about the 'Judds' mispelt in another thread as 'Judas'. Or maybe not.

Sorry folks but I need to consult with the other mods about this thread. We're not allowed to tell jokes around here because they could be used in evidence against us.

Tanks for starting this thread

[GolfBoyPro 43]

I heard they traded the old Melbourne bomb in for a tank so the board can get to and from training...

TIPS for Tuesday and every other day. Be kind to your mum.

I don't care about the Sun rising tomorrow. I won't buy it or the Age.

I fear that the MFC will be forced to endure the most heinous of punishment and take back young Scully for our alleged misdemeanours. Haven't we suffered enough Demetriou ?

Could be worse. Might have to take old Scully as well.

MFC deny there was a "vault", it was a think tank.

There was mountains of paperwork that would have been hard evidence that we tanked, but the dog ate it. By dog I mean Phil Scully. Because he's fat, and he eats everything.

The AFL are looking all the way back to the 2007 draft, as they believe we started tanking then, when we drafted Cale Morton at 4, rather than someone that can help us win games.

Barry Pretendergast has gone on record saying his recruiting isn't that bad, he was just part of the tanking process.

Brock McLean's mum is so fat, she rolled over a tank in Tiananmen Square.

I heard the tank ran over her. It didn't want to, it just didn't have enough fuel to go around her.

OK, in light of Don McLardy's statement, the Demonland legal team has announced it's time to party.

The best joke wins dinner at my favourite fish and chippery.

Second best joke wins dinner for two at my favourite fish and chippery. The catch is that the second diner will be a hungry Phil Scully.

We could bring the witnesses to court in these, just to brighten the proceedings, & Fitzpatricks toothbrush smile.

[dee-luded 2,959]

could we subpena Judd & Kreuzer to the hearings?

Maybe Kreuzer would drive Judd in his new SUV LandKreuzer, to the hearings.

It helps getting about when down in low gear, & prevents scraping the asphalt whilst kerb hopping. boom boom

Think you are running last so far, with that effort.
