Love this from dockerland.com:

Just got off the phone to Bondy. Both clubs agreed on the use of a complex formula in determining what number pick the Dockers were to receive in exchange for Viv. The formula is as follows:pick number = total number of minutes played MINUS number of years spent on AFL list ADD number of foot operations LESS number of times named as an emergency

On a different note, seriously poor that the club website still has not posted anything up on this. Really should be written up the moment it's on the AFL website.

My Freo supporting mate's comments when I asked about Michie were "Quality" and "You won this one".

We also had a bet of sorts about 4 years ago where he was adamant Jay Neagle would kick 40 goals in a season, and I said that he had the speed of a slug and 40 goals was fantasy.

Hopefully his judgement has improved in the interim.

Considering the time of the announcement, and that it's not official yet, just broken by a journo, now outside of business hours, I don't think it's all that unreasonable.

Do you think the club's PR/ social media department should be on call 24 hrs?

We can wait until morning, honestly...

Not in this day and age :) we want it NOW!!!

Plus with 96% of what has been going on around here being complete and utter dribble for 2 weeks solid, some people are gagging for official information, not mindless drivel :ph34r: :ph34r:

If you type "Viv Michie" into google images, Ben-Hur's little avatar pops up a few lines down.

I'd recognise that face anywhere.

Kate Upton... type her name and cat daddy into youtube and you can thank me later

Or staring contest.

Looking forward to see what he can produce for us and himself under Roos' tutelage.

And it is good to hear that the Freo blogsite is unhappy!

Also just waiting for the usual suspects to post "this guy is / will be an absolute gun"! Hopefully this will be held in reserve until something is produced to justify it.

Great trade.

Michie for 54 is a steal for us. Of course, he mightn't turn out as we'll be hoping, but for 54 that isn't going to hurt us, and the upside to this stands to be enormous.

Best of all it's a tentative pick 54. There's still compensation picks for Franklin, Thomas, Betts, Sylvia, Ellis and White to be factored into it, so currently it's looking like a pick 60.

Some massive injury question marks but not much of anything was given up for him, I'm happy with the trade.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
