Most on here would certainly believe your like for unbridled fantasy Bitty.

Once again Moonie you bring smutty suggestiveness into a thread. I think some of your bizarre latent tendencies are beginning to bubble to the surface.

Will never ever play for MFC again.

Will never play AFL again.

And u never say never.

I do not think LJ will get back to AFL standard, but that's not to say we as a club should not help in the rehabilitation of one of our own.

If he wants that help.

Probably at Casey, with aid and assistance from MFC,

Cost is negligable, rewards could be ginormous but the improvement in self worth and morale by the cub and supporter base

outweigh those costs. And when he was on song, man he could play.

Just because it might not work is not reason not to try. LJ back or winning tattslotto I can Dream if I want to !

The unusual lattitude afforded to him by the club for the alledged machette incident did not go unnoticed by the playing group.

In what way and by who?

It's funny that people have made statements to this effect from time to time but I've discussed Liam's situation with a few players and I got the impression that they were supportive and understanding.

Would the MFC have continued to maintain the contact through Craig Lees (who I understand incidentally, is leaving the club) if this was a problem with the players?

As to a comeback to the AFL I agree that it's the longest of long shots although the use of the final rookie spot would not be a great cost to a club (Nathan Stark played only six games for Casey's development league team this year).

Liam would need to get his head in the right space in a very short period of time and he would need to convince a club of his rehabilitation and willingness to accept some strict conditions including the undergoing of a mentorship. However, I fear there are too many issues that need to be addressed, many of them outside the realm of an AFL club.

A great dream though ...

Signed up to say I would love this, if; LJ had the right mindset. Were we to present the opportunity he would have to work a tremendous amount for it.

Rookie listing him would be a risk but that said; I would watch every one of his games, Casey or Seniors - for the story, the spectacle and the pure highlight real he was as a player.

The guy is a ledge...If anyone can get his head right it has to be Liam. I would fully support giving him a go if so.

[Sir Why You Little 36,985]

After watching yesterdays GF LJ is light years from playing AFL

Enjoy the highlight reels that already exist.

He was never fit enough..Raw Talent is just the beginning.

That's what he has.
