    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.

    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

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
