I didn't think I'd get a bad reaction for this. Sorry if I upset you. Should I contribute for any posting I make?

 

I liked it - funny and true.

Can't say that I've got much time for the "mummy! that man posted something I didn't like" crowd though.

Funny? Why would we sack Jason Taylor (one of the most highly touted recruiters in the AFL) after surely paying him a large sum of money?

It's neither funny or true. We've finally revamped our recruiters with decent ones and we can already see Viney, Toumpas, Hogan, Kent, Terlich, Matt Jones performing well.

Random names would've been better than our old recruiters but we've made changes.

As for posts I don't like I have no trouble with bad posts but people creating threads just for one silly joke is a waste of time.

Yeah. Damn that limited interweb thing. Can't go wasting it when there are kids in Africa with dial up.

I only wish we did this when Prendergast was robbing this club.

 

Sack all the recruiters and just use the order of preference the Journos come up with.

wtf do you think we've been doing? Watts, Trengove, Scully, Morton, McLean, Sylvia, Toumpas - all of them went within one spot of where the so-called experts expected them to on draft day. The top 5 is very obvious every year and we haven't made any 'shock' choices in this regard.


It's more making not saving money...fine people for starting sub acceptable threads

If that's what we've been doing then my post is correct; just do what the journos say.

What pick was Morton and where did the newspapers place him? That's not a smart reply - I really don't know. What about Gysberts and Petterd?

Hey Master, I was being facetious with what I originally wrote but with some truth. And I think you are absolutely right with what you have written re re-vamp. I just can't understand why I've had such a strong reaction from some. That's pretty strong stuff to say I bring down the reputation of this forum. "Lock threads like this" - Really? I try to be a contributor to this site. I try not to inflame others. I generally try not to attack people with views I don't agree with. And you think I should be censored. Why are you called "The Master", is it something about your attitude?

Also, how closely have we followed general opinion after the first few picks - say 10 to 30?

Hey Master. I was being facetious

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • 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.
