Dawes Conversation

[Bedraggled Dee 336]

Loving Dawes attitude in his latest offering on the club page. Clearly an intelligenct and articulate man,

I think he is a great asset as an on and off field leader and potentially as the third forward. I recon he is worth every cent we paid for him and I hope the scumbags come to realise what a mistake they made in letting him go.

I am all a quiver antcpating watching a forward line picked from Clark, Hogan, Dawes, Howe, Kent and Fitzy next year.

[Jock Strap 197]

Agreed! Great asset. And that's a pretty promising forward line ...

[dazzledavey36 52,729]

Just needs to get his body right and injury free summer which will see him a much better prospect in 2014.

[Robbie57 2,001]

Dawes is terrific, absolutely no nonesense and determined to make the best of himself. Loved the line that he think he and Mitch will do some damage.

He must be a chance for leadership this year.

[Bring-Back-Powell 14,346]

He and Garland for co-captaincy is my left-field prediction for next year.

[rjay 24,579]

Talks a good game but we have to see it consistently on the field.

[beelzebub 23,197]

Aye, thats the reality of it.

Hopefully we do though

[w00dy 146]

Didn't realise he was playing so injured last season. Explains a lot because he started really well but then his form dropped off. Get him fit and I think he will really compliment Mitch and Jesse really well.

Gee if we could just land two experienced midfielders to help out Jones, at least to give these bloke some supply and get the opposition worried.

So over hearing the word consistency.

At least Neeld used them with consistency ;-)

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,423]

he has really impressed me with his no nonsense attitude. A born leader.

Me too dc, I will be very impressed when he plays 20 games in 2014 and kicks 35 goals.

Until then it is more MFC hot air

They all do, actually.

It would be a great change.

[Barney Rubble 1,576]

Would make a very good leader, he is articulate and could communicate at all levels.

The guys would know exactly what the message meant.

[CHAMP 347]

So over hearing the word consistency.

It's much easier on the ear than 'competitive'.

It has an air of partial success as opposed to a 'no-hoper' connotation.

[Je Roos Salem 661]

Anything to help me understand why we took him

[rpfc 28,046]

Rhetorical?

Helpful.

How are you awake?

Save for Jones, no Demon has done anything for the better part of a decade.

Dawes gets talked up because we have been in desert for ages, and we will take whatever we can get.

Clark too.

At some point we will cease to roll our eyes at the kinds of things he is saying.

He happens to believe he is part if the solution; that he can help. And with the recent departure of someone who had 10 times the chances to do something, we should keep in mind that while it is frustrating to hear the sweet nothings, it is better than witnessing ten years of sweet nothing.

Dawes will surprise a few I think, and I hope it is as early as 2014.

That IMO is the nub of people's skepticism rpfc.

We have heard it all before over the last decade and a number of others.

I and a quite a few others now believe in what we see.

Talk is cheap, action is the only thing we believe.

Now you can call us negative if you wish but that negativity comes from years of listening to promises that have never happened.

Dawes is probably a good guy and the right type to have at the Dees, yes he makes all the right noises and he has performed on the big stage before.

I will believe when he plays 20 games and kicks 35 goals in 2014.

Woulda, shoulda, coulda

I heard it all

and still my team is the worst in the AFL

words now mean little to me

give me action

for the coin that he is on, the MFC nrrds a player who can play more then 12 games and score 12 goals in a season.

if he such value to the Club off field then make him a coach and get someone on the list who can actual play
