Viv Michie

[Rocknroll 1,005]

I am sure Nate Jones would be pretty stoked to have Viv next to him, A couple more strong body mids and Nate has a chop out.

Some of the comments from Freo Supporters and how much they highly rate him..

''Congrats guys, you just picked up a 150 + game solid on baller. I'm pretty devo ATM, but well done''.

''As I said earlier. You have a best 22 player there easy. The steal of the trade period IMO''.Well done.

''you guys just got a massive bargain. he'll be as good for you in the midfield as roberton was in the saints backline''.

I'm a bit disappointed. But you guys have grabbed a champ. Hard running, tough at it, beautifully skilled, and an inherent set of footy smarts. Viv will be an asset for you guys next season and really fills a gap. I'll be attending a few more Dees' games next year.

''I wouldn't say Michie is particularly quick, his main asset is reading the ball off the ruckman's hands. He'll be a very good inside mid for you guys I think, he dominates the clearances in the WAFL games I've watched live. He was just unlucky that his role is the strongest part of our team (Fyfe, Mundy and Barlow).

''Viv is a really solid, natural footy player. I'm angry that he decided to leave us and I reckon you have got a bargain''.

I would be interested in how many D'Landers posted similar comments about Sylvia

[Canberra Demon 159]

I just went onto the freo forum site also, it [censored] me off when I read posts on there (to quote):

- I'd bet $54 that he'll win their b&f next year;

- I'd bet $50 that they'll be on the bottom next year; and

- He'd play well in a crap team like dees.

I know we've sucked over the past few years, but geez I hope one day we can hold our own and stick it up these blokes - f#>king pisses me off!!!!

I wouldnt be too upset about comments from the purple haze..

They would still be kicking themselves about losing the GF but im afraid they would probably miss....

There still isn't anything on the MFC website, is this official?

Appears not. It's not listed on the AFL website's 'Trade Tracker' either (the most recent is Ellis moving to West Coast).

Nonetheless, you'd assume with what's been said and done that the paperwork is a formality.

[Jarka 767]

Paperwork needs to be submitted today

Thank god - I was just beginning to worry!

Good luck to him.

No wonder he is coming to us. Dawesy old man I believe owns an antique bookshop somewhere. They can swap books and read after training accompanied by their tweed jackets, pork pie hats and wooden pipes.

He'll fit right in at the dees!

[Satyriconhome 10,880]

Glad we got him cheap. Have some mates who played with him during his Chargers days and apparently he has some serious question marks regarding work ethic and discipline. I certainly hope this is not the case.

Are they the same mates that didn't progress onto an AFL list?.......do you know why they didn't by the way?

[richyrich 44]

Great news. Welcome aboard VIVIAN

[Demon_Tingles 211]

Welcome aboard Viv. I am very happy with this get. The thing that makes me like him the most is that he seems to have two things a few of our players don't ... very good vision and also that extra bit of time that some players possess.

[Gorgoroth 13,111]

Great news. Welcome aboard VIVIAN

It's a toaster!

[DeeSpencer 26,091]

Maybe the thing I'm most excited for is the the R in Trengrove, the A in Maloney, the O's in Pedorson, the E in Clarke, the A in Taggart, the U and R and often missing E and S in Burns and quite possibly my favourite the E on the end of Dunne now have a new friend. Welcome to the T in Mitchie.

Dare I say it, if you watch that highlight reel closely you'll see shadows of Brent Moloney, just in the way he moves, kicks etc. Not relevant one way or the other, just interesting...

Looks more like Davey to me.

Haha, not that I can see. Too busy getting a kick.
